I take pride in the fact that I’m a connector and listener. I love getting to know people and learning and helping to share their stories. And I’m happiest when I’m able to guide people through taking those stories and turning them into something meaningful. Through thoughtful questions and deep conversations, we'll collaborate on crafting your one-of-a-kind wedding ceremony!

When we were planning our wedding we originally thought of just asking a friend to marry us. But after learning more about what a good officiant can offer we were incredibly happy to have changed plans and gone with Miriam! Miriam perfectly balanced being both professional and also getting to know us as a couple and individuals. She was very friendly and always a joy to talk to in our calls. The ceremony itself was not something we had given a ton of thought to, and weren’t sure exactly what we wanted outside of having a few concepts (short, secular, not too serious). Miriam was able to offer us advice, recommendations, and guidance throughout the process as we created our ceremony. From sending us examples of readings that fit our vibe, to explaining different unity ceremony ideas and helping us come up with one that fit us, Miriam made what could have been a stressful planning experience into a breeze. Miriam separately reviewed both our private and public vows, gave us feedback to make sure both our tones were the same, and took care of dropping off the paperwork to make the marriage official. We knew we picked the right person when our friends asked us afterwards how long we had to look to find an officiant with the same sense of humor as us. We would absolutely recommend Miriam to anyone asking!

Awarded Best of Zola
As a mixed-faith couple seeking an egalitarian Jewish wedding ceremony, we were initially drawn to Rabbi Noyo for her remarkable flexibility and inclusiveness. We really couldn't have been happier with our choice! From the start, Rabbi Noyo made a great effort to get to know us, taking the time to understand our backgrounds, values, and desires for the ceremony. She dedicated an impressive amount of time guiding us through pre-marriage activities (e.g. "life topics" for us to discuss) and detailing the array of possible traditions we might consider integrating into the ceremony -- including both their traditional and more modern/egalitarian variants. It was truly a learning experience working with her! As an officiant, Rabbi Noyo struck a great balance between making the ceremony personable yet traditional, religious yet inclusive. Overall, she was really fabulous to work with, and we couldn't recommend her more highly!

My partner and I finally decided to elope after having been together for decades. Our plan was to show up at City Hall, sign some papers, and it would be done and dusted. I was a little disappointed to learn that that our city did not have an officiant on staff in the City Clerk's office. It turned out that lack of a an on-staff JP was the best thing that could have happened. While searching for a JP, I came across Hannah's website. Her "make it official" offering sounded like just what we were looking for. Hannah was marvelous. We had an initial consultation to nail down the where, when, and how of our ceremony. She was patient, knowledgeable, and made fantastic suggestions. The short timeframe we wanted was no problem for her. The last minute change in venue, again, no problem. She asked if we wanted any spiritual content in the ceremony, and when we said no, she was good with it. She was able to provide recommendations for a local photographer who also turned out to be awesome and just the person we needed. She patiently waited for us to finish writing our vows, printed them out for us to read to each other, and crafted the most beautiful, simple ceremony we could have hoped for. I honestly can't recommend Hannah enough. She will guide you, never push you, and truly help you create and execute what you as a couple want for your wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Matt did the most amazing job with our wedding ceremony. It was fun, engaging, and heartfelt—which was exactly what we wanted—and it set the tone for the rest of our day perfectly. The process with Matt was professional and organized, while also being incredibly enjoyable. He met with us well in advance to talk about what we wanted and got to know us as a couple. He then showed us a draft and did a great job of incorporating the small amount of feedback we had. It’s been several years since our wedding, yet family and friends still regularly (and unprompted) bring up our ceremony, saying that it was one of the best they’ve ever been to. Matt was the first person we hired for our wedding, and was definitely one of the best decisions we made. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a memorable day that feels personal and unique to you.

From start to finish, working with Cole Pirelli was such a thoughtful and collaborative experience. The questions he asked helped us reflect on our relationship in ways we hadn’t before, and those insights became the heart of our ceremony. Every detail felt intentional and personal; nothing was cookie-cutter about it. On our wedding day, the ceremony was warm, emotional, and perfectly us. We felt completely seen, supported, and celebrated.

Anna Brooke 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Offers 8 ceremony types
  • Starts at $275
  • Serves Great Barrington, MA for additional fees

Anna Brooke is a wedding officiant, author, and healing arts practitioner based in Midcoast Maine. She offers vow renewals, premarital counseling, and is available for local and destination weddings. Fluent in English and French, Anna honors all paths with a warm, open-hearted approach.

Anna is a truly wonderful, warm, calm presence, and guided us through the entire process with gentle mastery. It's difficult to express the amount of gratitude we feel for the care she took with every step. The serenity and euphoria we experienced that day were in large part because of her prep work, which helped us to shape everything we didn't even know we wanted in the ceremony. She made everything extremely clear and simple. She is a fantastic listener, very creative, and is the unique person who can both provide ideas when necessary, and gives you space to unfurl your own. She is a ton of fun in person and an exemplary officiant and guest, as well as incredibly prepared for anything! She also has the most gracious and gently powerful essence. Just the most supportive, serene human which is so important on such an important and potentially stressful day. Cannot imagine having the ceremony and celebration without her, cannot recommend her enough! She will infuse your process and ceremony with loveliness and joy. She's an absolute angel.
