Rev. Dave Angle (The Wedding Rev) provided a detailed, informative and open communication style throughout our wedding planning process. Their work was truly top notch. He took our story, our inside jokes, and our love for each other and created a masterful script. His style is meaningful and well-thought out.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Rev. Phill! From start to finish, he made our ceremony feel completely personal, meaningful, and truly about us. He took the time to get to know us and guided us through every step of the process — from the structure of the ceremony to the heartfelt details that made it uniquely ours. His care, thoughtfulness, and genuine spirit shone through in every moment. My absolute favorite part of the entire day was when my husband and I shared our reasons for why we love each other — a beautiful idea that Rev. Phill incorporated perfectly. Hearing those words out loud, realizing how aligned our hearts and thoughts were, and seeing our guests’ reactions was unforgettable. It’s something we will cherish for the rest of our lives, and so many guests told us afterward how touching and personal it was. Rev. Phill went above and beyond in every way. His warmth, sincerity, and professionalism made us feel completely at ease, and it truly felt like he had known us for years. We would not have wanted anyone else to officiate our wedding — he was absolutely perfect for us and worth every penny. Rev. Phill made our day more meaningful than we ever could have imagined, and we will gladly recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for an officiant who will make your ceremony personal, heartfelt, and unforgettable.

Awarded Best of Zola
Koru did and AMAZING job at putting together our ceremony! Our guests could not stop raving about how personalized and special the ceremony was. It was truly memorable. Deciding on an officiant was one of our tougher decisions for us during wedding planning. We went back and forth on asking a friend vs hiring a vendor. Pat was so personable and bubbly during our first meet, my husband and I knew the second we hung up on the Zoom meeting that we were going to hire her. Pat was so easygoing and responsive to questions/changes we made throughout the process. She was also a large help during our rehearsal and had a ton of great tips for the wedding party. Hiring Koru was one of the best decision we made for our wedding day.

We embrace the diversity surrounding us. Recognizing that our world is filled with various forms of love. We at Christine the Officiant believe that love has no boundaries, love is love, and love is universal. Our couples come from various nationalities and backgrounds, including religious beliefs such as Catholic, Jewish, Lutheran, and or nondenominational. We at Christine the Officiant are multilingual. It is the beginning of a new era, where couples now have more options for their special day, whether it may be traditional, a specific theme, or outdoors. We are excited for each opportunity to unite and share the love.

Christine The Officiant is a true professional throughout the entire wedding experience. Her communication style is clear, supportive, and assertive, ensuring that all details were addressed and the ceremony ran smoothly. The quality of her work was exceptional, and her high-end service truly contributed to making our special day even more memorable. For instance, Christine always makes sure to stay in close contact with the couple, and helped coordinate with all the vendors involved in the elopement. On a rainy day, I witnessed her quickly orchestrate umbrellas for the bridal party so the bride and her motherwouldn't get wet. Christine really does go above and beyond to make couples' wedding dreams come true, even if it means dressing up in costume or going out of her way. I highly recommend Christine The Officiant to any couple looking for a professional, supportive, and exceptional wedding officiant.

Our team of officiants has over 600 weddings experience in the last 8 years. We are experienced in creating a ceremony that is perfect for you and your fiancee for the best start to your married life.

Jennifer was wonderful to work with. She was very easy to contact and quickly answered any and all questions. Rehearsal went by so smooth and made sure to allievate any concerns and nerves- everyone knew what to do, when to do it, and how. The ceremony itself was more than what we could have hoped for. Jennifer kept it upbeat, loving, emotional, and just FUN! We were involved in the writing process so the ceremony was personal and full of meaning but kept a lot of surprises for us. I cannot recommend Jennifer enough!!!

I assist in crafting a creative, Jewish wedding ceremony that reflects who you are as a couple. I work with partners that are Jewish, interfaith, and LGBTQ+. I help couples honor their connection to Judaism and show them how to incorporate that respect into their wedding ceremony...in a way that is comfortable for them.

Rabbi Dina was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding ceremony. From our first conversation, Reb Dina was incredibly responsive, communicative, and friendly. We wanted elements of a traditional Jewish wedding ceremony without being overly religious and she took the time to understand our vision and tailored the ceremony to be truly special and personal for us. We received so many compliments from our guests on how special and full of love the ceremony was and what a wonderful job Reb Dina did. She was a delight to work with and really allowed us to customize the ceremony to be exactly what we were looking for. We highly recommend Reb Dina and her team for any couple looking for a flexible, personalized, and unforgettable wedding officiant!
