Amore Eterno by Lisa 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Offers 8 ceremony types
  • Starts at $200
  • Serves Utica, NY

I’ve had the privilege of officiating weddings and standing beside couples on one of the most important days of their lives since 2019. Over the years, I’ve learned that no two couples are ever the same, and every ceremony deserves to feel personal, meaningful, and true to the couple standing before me. Whether you’re planning a large celebration or a small intimate ceremony, my goal is always the same — to create a moment you’ll remember for the rest of your life.

“Our wedding ceremony was very simple and intimate, but Lisa made it feel incredibly special and unforgettable. She was patient, professional, and so thoughtful throughout the entire process. Her warm presence helped us feel comfortable and truly present in the moment. We are so grateful for the care she brought to the ceremony. Thank you for making such an important day so meaningful and memorable. We would recommend Amore Eterno by Lisa”

“We cannot recommend Miriam highly enough! She was kind and caring, professional, and extremely good at her job, for a very decent price. She helped our wedding go so smoothly and we are so incredibly grateful she was part of our special day! Our photographer heard we were looking for an officiant for our wedding, and passed along Miriam’s information. From the moment we connected with her, we felt her warm and friendly energy and felt totally at ease about planning our wedding ceremony! Before we met Miriam, we were not really sure what we wanted our wedding to be, but we did know we wanted it to be written by us, and as a queer couple we did not want a “traditional” wedding. It started off feeling overwhelming with so many details to plan overall, but as soon as we met with Miriam, we felt completely at ease and even excited about the process! We threw out some ideas that wove in our New Age/paganistic spiritual beliefs, and Miriam reached out to her pagan priestess friend and did a deep dive researching for our ceremony and coming back to us with so many wonderful ideas. She thoughtfully and creatively wove all the important elements we hoped for into a beautiful ceremony, down to every detail. She was open to our ideas, and supportive through every step of the way, right up until we were there in the moment getting married, and even after the ceremony. She helped make our wedding so special, and we got so many compliments on how “us” our ceremony was and what a great job Miriam did. 100/10, would recommend, do yourself a favor and take this as your sign to book with her!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Working with Love & Laughter Weddings for our small wedding in Carmel by the Sea was one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire planning process. We booked their Event Management package with officiant and Design add on for our wedding weekend and I genuinely can’t imagine our wedding without Evelyn and her team. From the moment we met, Evelyn was such a calming, reassuring, and positive presence. Wedding planning felt overwhelming at times, but she always made us feel grounded and supported in our check in meetings. No matter what came up, she handled everything with kindness, confidence and such a peaceful energy. Having someone like that in your corner truly makes all the difference. I shared my Pinterest inspiration and some ideas I’d seen online with her and somehow she brought everything to life even better than I could’ve imagined. Every detail was intentional and very “Us.” The entire weekend flowed so easily and I was able to be present in the moment and enjoy the time with our family and friends instead of stressing. The whole Love & Laughter team was amazing to work with and made our wedding feel effortless and beautiful. I highly recommend them for any couple looking for a team that is not only incredibly talented but also genuinely caring and supportive throughout the process.”

Ceremonies by Navid 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Utica, NY

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!

“With full trust in Navid, he met our every expectation as he shone as a public speaker, diligently took on preparation, and with very little guidance from us, prepared a heartfelt and personal speech in the style we requested. What I appreciated most about working with Navid was his self-sufficiency. In an otherwise stressful time where we were time-limited, he understood the assignment without needing our constant input, which is not often the case with wedding vendors. At our rehearsal, Navid took charge, used humor to diffuse stressful dynamics, asked important questions we had not even thought of, and even saved the wedding on the day-of by making sure our rings made it to the altar. I cannot recommend Navid enough!”

“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.”
