“Dave was GREAT!! He gave us a personalized ceremony catered to our needs. We met up with him months before the wedding, and he helped us understand what the ceremony would look like. He provided us with multiple templates to choose from, allowing us to customize our ceremony. On the day of the wedding, he spoke clearly and delivered the ceremony with warmth and professionalism.

Rabbi Noyo (Rabbi Sarah Noyovitz) is a warm, inclusive, and creative officiant based in Boston, MA. She crafts meaningful, personalized wedding ceremonies for couples of all backgrounds - Jewish, interfaith, non-religious, queer, poly, and beyond. Whether you want something simple or symbolic, she will collaborate with you to make it feel deeply “you.” She brings care, clarity, and joy to every celebration and believes your love deserves to be honored with intention.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Rabbi Noyo is the best! Hire her now. More context: We hired Rabbi Noyo to officiate our interfaith wedding in September 2024. We wanted to add some jewish elements to our wedding but did not know what our options were beyond breaking the glass and the Chuppah. Rabbi Noyo was understanding and patient with us - she took the time to really get to know me and now husband, our history, what we love about one another, etc. She also encouraged us to have important, difficult conversations leading up to the wedding, which she cleverly coined as 'pillow talk'. This helped strengthen our bond and us feel completely secure and ready for our upcoming nuptials. In additional to these sessions, Rabbi Noyo also took the time to explain the various elements that could be incorporated leading up to and during the ceremony, the significance behind them, and even provided information on where to learn more/buy items. She never pressured us or made us feel badly for skipping ceremony components and even provided alternative language for blessings that felt more like us. She also provided input on our program, reviewed our vows, and even had printed copies ready for us during the ceremony. Rabbi Noyo made our wedding ceremony truly perfect. Her words during the ceremony were BEAUTIFUL, heartfelt, and funny. She knew the little things that mattered (including setting expectations ahead of the ceremony, moving to the side for the kiss, etc.) and helped everyone feel so comfortable. She gave clear instructions to the guests and helped make sure that the special moments worked seamlessly. She encouraged our love to shine through and facilitated an absolutely gorgeous ceremony. Our guests are even still talking about how amazing the Rabbi was and asking where to find her. Rabbi Noyo made our wedding exactly the way we wanted it to be, and I know she will do the same for you. Hire her! You will not regret it :)”

I'm Rev. Lauri, a Connecticut wedding officiant based in Hamden, serving New Haven and surrounding areas. I write every ceremony from scratch, after a few conversations with you so the words sound like you, not a template. I work with spiritual couples, interfaith couples, same-sex couples, and blended families. Intimate elopements, backyard weddings, barns, castles, all of it. If you're in a hurry, I can help: I've written full ceremonies with just days to spare. You'll see every draft and can revise as much as you need. I also assist with vows, and I can bring in rituals like handfasting, a ring blessing, or a surprise where I share something private each of you said about the other.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Lauri was fantastic to work with and we are so grateful we found her. She was a caring a nurturing presence throughout, was very receptive to our requested changes as we planned the ceremony script, and was clearly motivated by doing what would be right for us. She met with me and my fiance about four times during our wedding planning process to get to know us and modify our ceremony plan/script to what spoke most to us most as a couple. She was knowledgable about a variety of cultural traditions and helped us incorporate the Irish Hand Fasting Blessing into our ceremony, providing us with an everlasting, unique memory and memento (the handfasting chord) of our promises to each other. We received several compliments from our wedding guests about Lauri's ease and professionalism while she officiated our wedding. We highly recommend her! - Tess, May 2025 Bride, Bill Miller's Castle”

“I very recently got married, and the planning leading up to the wedding went so smoothly and so quickly! Venue, florals, photography- things got checked off our list with relative ease. Then we got a bit stuck- we needed an officiant! It can seem like a simple pick, but if you don’t want to have a friend or family get ordained, and you’re not a member of a traditional religion, it can be a harder match to make. But then, we found Tara at Witchy Woman Weddings and reached out immediately. We’re so glad we did!! Inquiry was simple and responses were fast. We only spoke through email leading up to the day itself, but Tara does have the option to book meetings if you’d prefer some face-to-face contact in the lead up to your big day. She has such a peaceful and warm presence that, even if you’re meeting her for the first time at the altar for the ceremony as I did, you feel that calm and kind energy emanating towards you. The process for creating your ceremony script is both easy and personalized- Tara has an in-depth questionnaire to fill out that covers a wide range of topics so she can tailor the ceremony to your unique story and the vibe you’re aiming to create. It really covers all the bases but doesn’t feel daunting to complete. After that, she delivers a sample script and makes sure to note that edits can be made if there is anything you want changed- we didn’t make a single change to ours! We got emotional just reading through our draft and were amazed at how she captured us in the writing. To sum all this up, I am beyond grateful to have found Tara. She was the perfect person to join us together, mixing elements of both the traditional and the not-so-traditional on our Friday the 13th wedding. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a truly special, unique, and heartfelt ceremony. At the risk of sounding a little cheesy, she truly helped make our day a magical one!”

You’ve found your person—now let’s make it official in a way that feels like you. I’m Ope, the officiant behind Meet Me at the Altar Wedding Services. I specialize in custom ceremonies that are personal, joyful, and never boring. Whether it’s an elopement or a full celebration, I center your story and create a moment that’s meaningful, engaging, and true to who you are. Based in the Hudson Valley and serving the Tri-State area, I welcome all love and can’t wait to celebrate yours.

“My wife and I had been planning our micro wedding when we realized we still needed the perfect Officiant. After a few consultations with others, we were okay, but my wife insisted we have one more this time with Ope. From the moment we spoke with her, everything changed. She had an instant gravitating presence full of conviction, confidence, and passion. Her dedication to her clients is unmatched: she offered multiple follow-up meetings, rehearsals, and even connected with our families to learn more about us. The highlight was the beautiful love story she crafted for our ceremony, truly perfect. Choosing Ope was one of the best decisions we made. She was professional, welcoming, understanding, and radiated a commanding yet warm presence throughout. Her infectious spirit made the entire process a joy. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing she was, especially the love story she created for us. Thank you, Ope, for making our wedding ceremony everything we envisioned. You've gained two new friends, and we wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone looking for a passionate, inspiring officiant. Sincerely, E & V”
