About Say Yes With Yemisi

Yemisi Nassirou

Founder & Lead Officiant

I’m Yemisi, a Brooklyn-based wedding officiant, and I believe your “I do” deserves to be personal, intentional, and unmistakably yours. Whether you’re exchanging vows on a rooftop, getting married under the bridge, keeping it intimate at City Hall, or creating a ceremony that doesn’t look anything like a traditional wedding, I’m here to help you make it meaningful. No traditions required—unless you want them. Secular or spiritual. LGBTQIA+ or straight.

My approach is equal parts heart and organization. I’ve spent more than a decade leading complex operations and community-focused work across New York City, so I know how to stay calm when plans change, keep the details moving, and make sure everyone knows what’s happening next. In other words: you get to focus on getting married. I’ll help take care of the rest. As a born Brooklynite and member of Brooklyn Community Board 14, I’m deeply connected to the communities I call home. That sense of community is at the heart of how I approach every ceremony: with curiosity, respect, and a genuine interest in the people standing in front of me.

In three words: Calm, Organized, Thoughtful

    Exceptional Service and attention

    From our first conversation with Yemisi, we knew she would be the right person to officiate our wedding. She listened carefully to what we wanted and asked thoughtful questions that helped her understand our vision. Yemisi paid close attention to every detail and created a ceremony that felt personal and truly ours. She blended our ideas with her own creative touches to make the moment unforgettable for us and our guests. Working with her was easy because she communicated clearly throughout the planning process and we trusted her completely. We cannot recommend Yemisi enough she made our ceremony everything we hoped it would be.

    Thorough, Witty, & Understanding

    Working with Yemisi was nothing but an absolute pleasure. She is very thorough, organized and thoughtful. Yemisi was also fun to work with because of her gregarious nature. She has the social skills to know when someone needs her help or just a graceful moment and might make you laugh in the process. She warms my heart and I will never forgot working with her during any events.

    YEMI IS THE BEST WHEN IT'S TIME TO SAY YES!!!!

    From our first conversation with Yemisi, we knew we had made the right choice for our ceremony. She listened to what we wanted and explained everything in a clear, straightforward way that made the whole process feel simple and stress-free. Yemisi was responsive whenever we reached out with questions or changes, and she always got back to us quickly with helpful guidance. On our wedding day, she delivered a beautiful ceremony that felt personal and genuine, hitting all the notes we discussed without any confusion or missed details. Her calm presence and easy-going nature helped us feel confident and relaxed as we walked down the aisle. We would absolutely recommend Yemisi to any couple looking for an officiant who actually listens and communicates like a real person.
