The Uncommon Officiant 

5.0

Columbus, OH
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $150
  • Serves Ohio

I am a licensed wedding officiant from Worthington, Ohio and I have been performing weddings in Columbus and the central Ohio region since 2011. I love what I do and in the past 14 years I have presided over more than 650 ceremonies. Your ceremony is the first interaction your guests have with your wedding. So I set the right tone and generate the right atmosphere for everyone to relax, celebrate, and be present for the entire experience. Whether it’s a traditionally formatted wedding, non-religious ceremony, earth-based handfasting, or a simple elopement at a park, I am here to make sure your wedding is exactly what you want it to be.

In the consultation he was an organized & reassuring. On the wedding day itself, in addition to speaking eloquently & memorably, he literally saved the day twice. We’re very happy with our choice of officiant. I couldn’t imagine anyone else doing a better job.

Tim Greathouse, Ohio Wedding Officiant 

5.0

Canton, OH
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $150
  • Serves Ohio

What’s the right wedding ceremony for a religiously independent couple? A courthouse ceremony is cold, impersonal, and over in a flash. A church ceremony is usually just a long sermon to which your actual ceremony is a sideshow. Pick your poison - a quick, dry affair with no heart, or a long, tedious slog that flies in the face of your worldview. Or... chuck that poison and grab the champagne. I got you, boo! I perform deeply personal, customizable ceremonies for couples who truly care about the content of their ceremony and want the declaration of their love and commitment to be truly unforgettable.

Tim was an absolutely incredible officiant and you can tell he absolutely loves his job. He makes a point to ask the perfect questions from his couples that will lead to such a beautiful ceremony. Our wedding was in September of 24, and we still get people mentioning how awesome Tim was. I'd totally suggest him to anyone.

Minister Sharnise Sears 

5.0

Willoughby, OH
  • Offers 7 ceremony types
  • Starts at $1,250
  • Serves Ohio

Hi, I’m Minister Sharnise Sears, a licensed wedding officiant and certified marriage educator who believes your ceremony should feel like *you*, not a script pulled off the internet. I work with thoughtful, intentional couples who want their wedding day to be beautiful, but their *marriage* to be even better. If you're careful about who you spend your money with (and rightfully so), you’ll find I bring heart, purpose, and just enough personality to make your ceremony unforgettable, in the best way. Let’s make your “I do” truly mean something.

As a wedding DJ, I work with a lot of different officiants and I can say that Minister Sharnise Sears is one of the best in the business! Sharnise is able to work with couples ahead of time to help them better prepare for such an important life step like marriage. She takes the time to really get to know her couples. Other wedding vendors, like me, love working with Sharnise too. On wedding day, Minister Sharnise is there promptly with a gracious attitude and a smile that lights up the room and puts everyone as ease. She officiates ceremonies for couples that are so meaningful and personal! Sharnise speaks clearly so everyone can hear what is being said. She is professional, yet fun! I highly recommend Minister Sharnise Sears!

Hi! I’m Brittany, an LGBTQ+ inclusive wedding officiant based in Youngstown, Ohio, creating prismatic ceremonies for couples of all backgrounds and identities in Northeast Ohio.

Brittany was the very best choice I made for my wedding!! She has a talent for understanding your vision and making it come to life (while honoring your budget!) She did all the leg work finding and haggling with vendors and made it so I could plan my wedding from another state, and work full time, without feeling overwhelmed by wedding planning. I may have been the least stressed bride on the planet!! She did a great job communicating with me and keeping my nerves in check and the way she managed the days events left me to enjoy just being a bride! 10 out of 10! She's a thrifty queen's dream come true!

Wows And Vows 

5.0

Columbus, OH
  • Offers 8 ceremony types
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Ohio

When Meb was in the 9th grade, she became an announcer for Varsity basketball. That's when she learned how to work a crowd. She's been a public speaker ever since. She's been an officiant for over 30 years. In 2015, she developed an online presence. She then trained her 2 best friends to officiate as well. Their personalities are different, but they have the same style. Who wouldn't want to be in business with their besties? We now officiate around 70 weddings a year and each one is custom-written. We enjoy getting to know our couples, preparing them for the big day, and exceeding their expectations for a ceremony.

We got an instant GREAT vibe from Meb from the first interaction via email. Then after we met up with her in person, we knew SHE WAS THE ONE! My partner and I are of a different faith so finding someone that would honor that and help us navigate that was important to us. Meb provided examples of readings/prayers/stories/vows to get an idea of what we could use. She also sent us questions separately and then used that information to customize our ceremony. Meb has so many other added personal touches that made us so confident in choosing her. She has such a calming presence that were very welcoming at the reception and day of wedding! We had several guests compliment her presentation and were impressed with how the ceremony flowed. She is a true professional...no need to worry if she steps out of the photo for the first kiss or how to hold hands or your bouquet during the dip :) We found Meb via the "Preferred Vendors" at our venue. We feel we have a new family member now :)

Joining a couple in marriage is a highlight of my life. I have married couples with religious backgrounds and some with no religious background. I have performed over 250 weddings in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana.

I am your guests' favorite thing about your wedding. Since 2011, I've been writing and performing personal, meaningful and refreshingly engaging ceremonies for couples just like you and couples who are nothing like you. Couples work with me with an easy, collaborative process during which I become your favorite part of wedding planning. I take guest experience and your wishes very seriously. Your families will thank you for getting somebody who makes the ceremony light while still making clear how beautiful it is that you found each other. I officiate all over the US.

I can't recommend him enough. Not only was he extremely flexible and understanding, we could tell how much time he spent preparing for our special day. He tailored our ceremony to highlight our unique circumstances and story, and perfectly executed it to set the exact mood we wanted. During the reception, half of our guests were talking about him instead of us! All in all, an absolute joy to work with.

Magical vows wedding officiant

Hi, I’m Matthew Loveless, and I’m thrilled that you’re considering me to be a part of your special day. My journey as a wedding officiant began in 2014 when I was asked to officiate my brother’s wedding. It wasn’t your typical ceremony—picture me wielding a sledgehammer! But that’s when I realized something: I love performing weddings, and the more unique and unconventional, the better! Since then, I’ve been passionate about creating ceremonies that are as distinctive as the couples I serve.

Magical Vows was the perfect officiant for our wedding ceremony. From our initial consultation, Matthew was fast, thorough, and engaging in his communication style, clearly explaining the process and options available to us. His depth of knowledge, professionalism, and personal touch were apparent throughout our planning. Matthew took the time to get to know us as a couple and crafted a beautifully customized ceremony that truly reflected who we are. He even helped us write our heartfelt vows, which made the moment even more special. Matthew's attention to detail and dependability put us at ease on our wedding day, allowing us to be fully present and enjoy the ceremony. We are so grateful to Matthew and Magical Vows for playing such an important role in making our special day perfect.
