“From our first conversation with SJM Weddings, we knew we'd made the right choice for our ceremony. He responded to our questions fast and was always ready to help us nail down every detail, showing up to our rehearsal and meeting with us multiple times to make sure everything felt right. When we asked for changes to the ceremony, he made every single edit without hesitation and stayed positive throughout the entire planning process. What really stood out was how kind and genuine he was—he genuinely cared about making our day special and it showed in every interaction. His dedication to getting every detail perfect gave us so much peace of mind walking down the aisle. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant to celebrate our marriage with us.”

This Day Forward provides officiant services for the Finger Lakes area, including Rochester, Buffalo, and Syracuse. We began as a way to help people who desire to have ceremonies and life rituals that are meaningful to them. We believe that nothing is more important to the integrity of being human than recognizing that fact through intentional acts of celebration, remembrance, and recognition that ceremonies embody.

“David was an absolute pleasure to work with! David is extremely professional and seamlessly provides a balance of guidance and helpful suggestions, with personalization and collaboration in creating your wedding ceremony. David provided options for readings and vows to include in our ceremony, while giving us complete freedom to add anything specific that is meaningful to us. David even shared the idea of a wine and letter box as a part of our ceremony, which we loved! He also weaved our unique experiences and memories into the ceremony in a meaningful way. My husband and I did not want a religious ceremony, which David accommodated easily. David is also highly responsive and dependable. David was early for our ceremony, and communicated when he sent in our marriage license for us, to give us peace of mind. My husband and I highly recommend David as an officiant!”

Hi, I'm Navid! I officiate weddings throughout NYC and NYS, crafting ceremonies that sound like you — your relationship, your humor, the story that brought you here. I take the time to really get to know each couple I work with, because your ceremony should never feel like it was pulled off a shelf. Whatever traditions matter to you — any culture, a blend, or none at all — I love weaving them into the ceremony itself. My goal is to set the scene that celebrate your love. I hope we get to work together!

“Navid is a master host of moments. He has an innate ability to wrap a whole room in his arms and lift everyone up, making an occasional feel special, contained, and a bit sublime. He can enter a stranger’s house for a celebration and give a toast that perfectly captures the sentiment in the room, at just the right moment, making people laugh, cry, and feel united. It came as no surprise when we learned he had begun to officiate weddings. Navid is a leader, a storyteller, an anchor, a tender confidant, and a true friend. In each of these, he shines. Call on him to host this special moment for you. I promise you: you’ll be glad you did.”

“From the moment we first spoke with Fabi, we knew she wasn’t just another wedding vendor—she was someone who truly cared about us and our story. She listened with so much heart, asked questions we’d never even thought about, and somehow turned all of that into a ceremony that felt perfect to our story. In the weeks leading up, she was our calm in the chaos—answering every question, even helping us with last minute vendor coordination when we had our florist and makeup artist suddenly cancel. She made sure we felt supported every step of the way. On the day itself, she showed up with this quiet confidence and warmth that made us both instantly relax. Standing there, listening to the script, we felt completely present—like the rest of the world had disappeared and it was just us. It was emotional, it was joyful, had the perfect notes of humor true to us and it was exactly what we had hoped for, only better. Our friends and family still talk about how beautiful and personal it was. Adirondack Ever After didn’t just officiate our wedding—she made it a moment we’ll carry in our hearts forever.”

Lawrence E. Adjah, MBA, M.Ed, M.Div.

  • Offers 8 ceremony types
  • Starts at $2,250
  • Serves Penn Yan, NY

Lawrence E. Adjah, MBA, M.Ed, M.Div. is a pastor, marriage counselor and best-selling author on relationships. Lawrence specializes in marriage counseling and one-on-one spiritual advisory. He approaches his guidance in a biblically based, structured, relatable, and systematic manner, with clear owned outcomes and next steps. Lawrence will guide you through the wedding planning process with warmth, intentionality and clarity. Lawrence offers a wide array of services to guide you through your wedding and beyond. He provides both wedding officiating services and vow renewals, as well as pre-marital counseling and ongoing marriage counseling.

“My husband and I worked with Pastor Lawrence for a year of faith-based pre-marital counseling and had an amazing experience. We, like many couples, went into our first session thinking we’d already discussed the most important topics and we’d maybe need to do 3 formal pre-marital counseling sessions. Our first session was so impactful that we immediately decided that we wanted a full year of counseling. That decision, we believe, completely changed the trajectory of our marriage. Pastor Lawrence asked difficult, thought-provoking questions that helped us see our relationship (with each other and with God) in new ways, and each session left us feeling better equipped for marriage than we ever expected. His depth of knowledge, approachability, and ability to guide meaningful, relevant conversations aimed at aligning us as one—even when we thought we had nothing new to discuss—was truly a gift. We are so grateful for the wisdom and encouragement he poured into us throughout this process and would highly recommend him to any couple who is looking to build a strong, Christ-centered foundation going into their marriage.”
