“Sheri was the best! She was very warm, pleasant to work with, and knowledgeable about the marriage process and how to put together a great ceremony. She spent time learning about us a couple and our love story, and she spoke beautifully about it during the ceremony. It really felt like she cared about representing our love and painting a picture for our guests. She was able to tailor the ceremony to exactly what we were looking for, including a hand fasting ceremony. We received a ton of compliments about the ceremony and Sheri from our guests. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone tying the knot!”

Stop scrolling! You found us! My name is Chelsea. I am a New England based wedding officiant who writes and performs custom ceremonies for weddings and elopements. I believe every couple deserves to feel guided by a seasoned professional on their wedding day. I also believe your officiant should feel like a natural part of the day. Warm, familiar, and completely at home within the celebration of your story. My goal is to fit seamlessly into each wedding, sharing your love story with clarity, romance, and just the right amount of humor for the people who matter most. I have two other talented officiants on my team, Ren and Connor, increasing our wedding season availability!

“From our first conversation, Chelsea understood exactly what we wanted for our ceremony. They were thoughtful in every detail and always got back to us quickly with ideas and updates leading up to the big day. On the wedding day itself, they crafted the feeling for the whole ceremony in a way that made it truly ours. Their ability to weave our story and values into the vows and words spoken felt priceless—it's not something you can put a price tag on. We felt so supported by her throughout the entire process, and our guests kept mentioning how personal and meaningful the ceremony was. We can't recommend The Marrying Jane enough to couples looking for an officiant who will make their day unforgettable.”

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!”

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Anna. From our very first conversation, she made us feel heard, valued, and genuinely excited about our ceremony. What truly set her apart was the amount of care and effort she put into getting to know us as a couple. She took the time to reach out not only to us, but also to our friends and family, gathering stories, memories, and details about our relationship that made our ceremony feel incredibly personal. Anna seamlessly wove those stories into the ceremony in a way that felt natural, heartfelt, and authentic. There were moments that made us laugh, moments that made us cry, and moments that perfectly captured who we are together. So many of our guests commented afterward on how beautiful, unique, and meaningful the ceremony was.

I am an avid hiker, cyclist, trail runner, and perform professionally as a guitarist/singer. **** My style is relaxed, easy going, and adaptable. After 32 years teaching high school, not much throws me off (few weddings go exactly as planned). We will make it uniquely yours and make it fun...a little laughter always goes well at a wedding.

“Dwight married my husband, Ben, and I on 5.25.25. I reached out to Dwight in December and he was quick to reply. Right away, we scheduled a time to talk on the phone and this is when Dwight shared information about the process and was very knowledgeable. Next, once he received a deposit, we were able to customize our ceremony. I loved how detailed and organized the process was and the same goes for Dwight himself. Leading up to the ceremony, I would text him and ask questions, he was patient, responsive and helpful. On our big day, we had a hiccup with family members struggling to find parking; therefore, we couldn’t start our ceremony on time and were 45 minutes late. Dwight was calm and collected, reassuring me that he had the whole day laid out for me and there was no need to worry. During our ceremony, he was well-versed, educated, kind, helpful, and had a great presence. We truly enjoyed working with him and HIGHLY recommend his services to anyone!”

Rev. Erika Hewitt

  • Serves Portland, ME

I love working with couples (YOU!) to create personalized, meaningful ceremonies to create a shared emotional experience for your guests. When a couple messages me, I ask for a no-pressure video chat with you. Our casual meet-up allows me to hear your vision & dreams, and then describe my personalized ceremonies. As a Unitarian Universalist (UU) minister, I honor any spot on the continuum: atheist, humanist, agnostic, Christian, interfaith, or -- most common for me -- spiritual but not religious. Grounded in progressive values, I prefer to work with couples who are egalitarian, and who view marriage as an equal partnership.

“We truly could not have found a better wedding officiant! From her very first email, to our planning sessions, to meeting for the first time at our rehearsal, to our actual wedding day, Erika just radiates a warmth that makes you feel like you’ve known her forever. Throughout our planning sessions, Erika provided so many opportunities for us to personalize our wedding ceremony. While we wanted to maintain some of the traditional elements of a wedding ceremony, she also presented multiple ideas on different elements that could be incorporated to make things a little different too. In our meetings leading up to the wedding, she got to know us both as individuals and as a couple, which resulted in a deeply personalized ceremony that had almost all of our guests in tears at some point. When we arrived to our reception, our guests were raving about how wonderful Erika was! Our guests loved Erika were so moved by the ceremony that she helped us create, and I had numerous guests express how impressed they were with her. Throughout the entire process, Erika has impressed us with her professionalism, humor, authenticity and warmth. It would not have been the same wedding ceremony without her and we are so lucky to have found her and worked with her. We could not recommend her more!”

“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!”

“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.
