Mesquite, TX

Hi, I’m Yvonne — Lead Officiant - Founder, and your personal hype woman for one of the biggest moments of your life. I am Texas based and I’ve married over 400 couples, and no two love stories have ever been the same. I started officiating as a tribute to my sister, who passed away unexpectedly in 2023. She loved us all deeply and wholeheartedly, and celebrating life’s big moments without her was the hardest part of losing her. Helping couples honor their journey and love story has been my way of healing — one beautiful, heartfelt ceremony at a time. Whether your vows are traditional, bilingual, or totally outside the box, I’m here for it. ♥

Yvonne officiated our wedding a month ago and we couldn’t have been happier! We felt an instant connection from our first meeting and she made us feel at ease during every call. We really appreciate that she took the time to learn about our love story and provided a customized ceremony, in English and Spanish! She also checked in post wedding day and sent reminders regarding the marriage license. All in all, we highly recommend booking her as your officiant!

Tim Greathouse, Ohio Wedding Officiant 
Rating: 5.0 (43 reviews)
Canton, OH
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $150

What’s the right wedding ceremony for a religiously independent couple? A courthouse ceremony is cold, impersonal, and over in a flash. A church ceremony is usually just a long sermon to which your actual ceremony is a sideshow. Pick your poison - a quick, dry affair with no heart, or a long, tedious slog that flies in the face of your worldview. Or... chuck that poison and grab the champagne. I got you, boo! I perform deeply personal, customizable ceremonies for couples who care about the content of their ceremony and want the declaration of their love and commitment to be truly unforgettable. 800+ ceremonies, 500+ rehearsals, 17 years!

Tim Greathouse, the Ohio Wedding Officiant, was an absolute pleasure to work with. His communication was quick, easy, and always on time, making the process of planning our wedding ceremony seamless. The quality of his work was nothing short of perfection - he brought the perfect balance of humor and precision to our vows, making it feel like we had known him for years. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant, and we would highly recommend Tim Greathouse to any couple looking for an incredible wedding experience!!!

We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Danny. From our very first interaction to the moment he pronounced us husband and wife, he was professional, organized, calming, and genuinely invested in making our ceremony perfect. Leading up to the wedding, Danny provided clear communication and thoughtful guidance so we knew exactly what to expect. He walked us through every detail — timing, posture, ring exchange logistics, even reminders to pause and take in the moment. As a bride, that level of preparation meant everything. It allowed us to feel calm, confident, and fully present on our wedding day. On the day itself, he executed everything flawlessly. He ensured the ceremony started on time, guided our wedding party seamlessly, and delivered a beautiful, heartfelt ceremony that felt personal and meaningful. His tone struck the perfect balance — warm, sincere, fun and engaging — while keeping things flowing smoothly. One thing we especially appreciated was how intentional he was about helping us savor the moment. His reminders to make eye contact, pause at the aisle, and truly take it all in are memories we will cherish forever. If you’re looking for an officiant who is professional, thoughtful, organized, and truly cares about your experience, Danny is your person.

Having Evan officiate our wedding was one of the BEST decisions that we made during the wedding planning process. Conor and I settled on the Gold Wedding Service which included a fully customized ceremony that absolutely exceeded our and our guests expectations. Several guests asked if he was a personal friend of ours and almost EVERYONE we talked to commented on how our ceremony was beautiful, thoughtful, and personalized. We even had a few comments saying it was one of the best, most engaging ceremonies they have witnessed. From the moment we first met with Evan, he was incredibly professional and very clear that he was there for us, to help us plan the ceremony of our dreams. Meeting with him helped us remember that while all the details of a wedding are important, it is a day to celebrate our unique love story and lifelong commitment to each other. He was an incredibly grounding presence during the last weeks of planning (chaos), especially during the ceremony rehearsal. His years of experience were evident and helped us and our family to feel as prepared as anyone can be for one of the biggest moments of our lives. Additionally, he helped us, our maid of honor, and best man execute an absolutely FLAWLESS handfasting ceremony while reciting our vows. This was a dream come true for us and it was a highlight for us and our guests. We cannot say enough wonderful things about Evan. Our wedding ceremony will forever be one of the best moments of our lives. Absolutely outstanding. Thank you, Evan!

Alex officiated our wedding and completely exceeded every expectation we had. He crafted a bilingual ceremony in English and Spanish that wasn't just translated—it was genuinely written in both languages, using each for what it expresses best. It was beautiful for our English-speaking guests and meaningful in an entirely different way for our Spanish-speaking family and friends. His entire approach was romantic, personal, and our guests were blown away. He kept the focus entirely on love and on us as a couple, creating a ceremony that was inclusive and joyful without ever losing sight of what the day was really about. As two grooms, it meant everything to have someone who honored our relationship with such care and intention. I've been to a lot of weddings. I have never heard so many guests spontaneously rave about an officiant the way they did about Alex. Weeks later, people are still bringing it up. He is the real deal.

We didn't give much time to ourselves and our minister to plan a great wedding but once the day came, everything was just perfect. Upon first meeting our minister, she was quick to help get us started and teach us how the ceremony would go. She gave us examples of other wedding ceremonies and told us in her own experiences how people react during their own ceremonies. It honestly helped us to plan the perfect wedding. We never had a rehearsal and there was some last-minute logistics to plan on the wedding day but by the end of it, everything ran smoothly. We received compliment after compliment of our ceremony and wedding day as a whole and it would have never been possible without her. She is the best and well worth it. Look no further than Kayelily.

A few hours after my husband and I got engaged, I asked him, "What if we just had a super tiny wedding and got married in a week?" Cue a mad scramble to find an officiant, photographer, and venue. We had already spoken to one potential officiant who didn't ask us any questions or tell us what he was planning to do—not great—so when our photographer recommended Dave, we were thrilled he was available. When we met up over Zoom to talk, it was clear he's very smart and funny, and loves love without being mushy about it. He crafted a ceremony that was short and sweet, complete with a reading that was a great match for us. I loved that he sent us the full script with free rein to adjust it to our liking. I, an endless word-fusser, only made one small change. On the day, he was already laughing with our witnesses when we arrived, and it set the scene so beautifully for us to have a joyful, laid back ceremony. It was perfect. He's happy to provide ideas but really wants the ceremony to work for you as a couple. He'll talk about his outfit options for you to choose from. (We went with a navy suit but he has a rad hot pink one too if that fits your vision. I suspect he would gamely wear an Iron Man costume or KISS makeup if that were your dream.) That open thoughtfulness extends to whatever kind of ceremony you want—big or small, religious or secular, traditional or offbeat. Zero judgment, just a steady stream of smart questions, good ideas, and caring support. And he writes the best emails. I haven't laughed that hard or felt so sparklingly clever in writing in years.

Matt is my brother and my husband and I chose him to officiate our wedding, not only because he is family, but because we wanted it to feel more personal rather than a generic wedding ceremony speech from the officiant. I always knew my brother was good with words and could speak in front of a crowd, but he truly exceeded our expectations to give us the most memorable ceremony we could have asked for. His speech was the perfect mix of lighthearted jokes, love, personal stories from our relationship, and information and feelings from my husband and I. He truly captured the essence of love and what it means to commit yourself to someone else for the rest of your life. Our guests still cannot stop talking about how great Matt was, even 6 months after the wedding!

Our experience with Rev. Dave was honestly a hit from the beginning! His personality is magnetic and you can tell he puts love and intention into the wedding ceremonies that he is a part of. He has different content up his sleeve (you’ll see when you book with him) to truly give you an unforgettable ceremony. Our guests could NOT stop raving about him and all of our guests thought that we had YEARS of personal family connections with him, when in reality we only had a 3-4 planning sessions. One of our close family friends even told my dad that our ceremony was the best ceremony he had ever seen and his daughter just got married (sorry girl!). All i can say is this: when you receive his pricing, DO NOT SKIMP. My (now) husband and i paid for this wedding ourselves, and i do admit that we went with the middle package because of our own hectic schedules and finances, but Rev Dave is WORTH IT ALL. You are (hopefully) only getting married one time, and one of THE best decisions you could make is hiring Rev. Dave!

My Grandfather was one of the first people in my life to hand me a microphone, and I have found myself holding one ever since. My name is Kaitlin, and I go by The Resonant Officiant. To “resonate” means to “ produce or be filled with a deep, full, reverberating sound” and my goal is to co-create a ceremony that leaves both the guests and the couple with a sense of connection, hope, and lasting memory. Our ancestors were deeply rooted in ritual practices, and while those exact rituals may not fit quite the same as they once did, they brought people together as a strengthened unit - a sense of belonging all beings deserve to experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Kait, The Resonant Officiant, was one of the very best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning she brought such warmth, openness, and fun energy to the process. We immediately felt comfortable with her, and that sense of ease carried through the entire weekend. She has a way of creating a safe, welcoming space where everyone feels included, and she does it with genuine kindness and a wonderful sense of humor. Kait guided us through the rehearsal dinner with so much confidence and calm, helping us and our families feel grounded and excited for what was to come. On the wedding day she delivered a ceremony that was beyond anything we could have imagined. Her words were personal and beautifully written, like poetry, and she told our story in a way that felt meaningful and authentic to us while also drawing in our guests. There was laughter, there were tears, and there was an overwhelming feeling of love in the room. She did not stop there. Kait also stepped in as the emcee for our reception, making transitions seamless and keeping the celebration flowing with warmth and joy. By the end of the weekend she did not just feel like our officiant, she truly felt like part of our family. Our guests could not stop raving about her, and so many people commented on how special and memorable the ceremony felt. We are endlessly grateful to Kait for the love and care she poured into our wedding. She made the entire experience unforgettable, and we know we will carry her words and presence with us forever. If you are considering The Resonant Officiant, we cannot recommend her enough!!

I love giving my couples an experience they will treasure forever. Your ceremony should fill you with happy memories when you think back on how you began your journey together as one. My ceremonies celebrate love, marriage, partnership, and connection. I have been ordained since 2014 and I am licensed to solemnize marriages in NJ, PA, NY, DE, and MD. I am happy to marry ANY loving, consenting couple who wishes to tie the knot in style. My delivery is engaging and energetic, with a professionally trained voice from decades of singing opera, voiceover work, and public oration, enabling me to deliver a beautiful, unforgettable ceremony.

Michael did a perfect job officiating our wedding. The entire process was so easy. From our initial calls, to working on the script he put together, to helping my now wife with her vows on the wedding day - Michael was so helpful and easy to work with every step of the way. We had an idea of what we wanted in a ceremony, and Michael took our loose ideas and absolutely nailed it. The ceremony he put together for us was absolutely perfect. It felt like he had known us our entire lives. We had several guests ask where we found such a great officiant and comment on what a great job he did. We weren't putting a huge emphasis on our ceremony, as we had always wanted a ceremony on the shorter side, but it ended up being one of the highlights of the day. We'll treasure those moments for the rest of our lives, and Michael is to thank for that. We're absolutely thrilled with Michael & our ceremony and we would recommend him to anyone without a doubt!!

The entire process of working with him was seamless and enjoyable. He guided us through every step, offering suggestions while also ensuring that our wishes were always honored. His patience and kindness put us at ease, especially during moments when we were feeling nervous or unsure. When it came time for the ceremony, we were in awe of how beautifully it all came together. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how heartfelt and personalized the ceremony was. It was unlike any other wedding ceremony they had attended, and it made our day feel even more meaningful.

Love Your Moment

As times have changed so has the face of religion. We have learned that you can be spiritual without being religious and, at the end of the day, all any of us truly want is to give love and receive Love. So what better service could we offer but to be the person on your wedding day to put the words of love and commitment into your ceremony so that you will Love Your Moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to even begin… Lisa was amazing from our very first phone call! She made was feel comfortable and accepted. We were worried that we would have a hard time finding an officiant willing to marry us in Texas, given we are gay, and Lisa not only calmed our nerves but wrote a ceremony embodying “Love is Love.” We also chose to do a tequila shot with a pickle back and were pleasantly surprised with how well she incorporated that into our ceremony with quirky analogies. The entire evening our guests kept telling us that this was the best ceremony they have ever heard. If only we could use Love Your Moment for more than just a wedding… we would book them 10000% of the time! Do yourself a favor and book them for your special day!

About wedding officiants

What kind of weddings can officiants help with?

We’re proud to offer officiants that offer secular weddings that focus on the couple’s love, commitment, and personal values; as well as officiants aligned with specific faiths. These officiants can perform ceremonies according to the traditions, rituals, and doctrines of that particular faith.

Can officiants help me with my vows?

We know that couples like private and personalized vows, and there are definitely some officiants who can help with this. We offer officiants on Zola that support non-secular ceremonies that allow you to tailor your vows and commitment in a memorable and meaningful way.
