I'll Tell You Why:

I'm very good at what I do. I love what I do. I'm always trying to improve at what I do.

I'm a trained Celebrant, not just an Officiant.

I don't use flowery language, I don't include any religious language you don't ask me to, I'm not boring, I don't do 'cookie cutter' ceremonies, unless you have a cookie company that we need to celebrate somehow. I have a good sense of how long a ceremony should be and I know how to make you look gooooooood. 

I know how to make every single guest at your wedding overjoyed that you are getting married.

And I do all of this with you - you help me write your ceremony, unless you're eloping and you just want something basic. 

I've officiated weddings in tons of different locations since 2011. I've officiated in the classiest hotel venues and most laid-back casual barn venues. I've married people on sidewalks, in parks, on boats, in blazing heat, pouring rain and a raging blizzard. Still don't know what those guys were thinking. Anyway, I've successfully done ceremonies in all kinds of weather, in all kinds of situations, and I'm equally comfortable in front of 5 people or 500 people. I'm even comfortable in front of 505 people.

Rachael Ray hired me to officiate weddings on her TV show four years in a row. Joan Rivers hired me to MC her dog's funeral on her TV show. But keep in mind, the kind of weddings I've done in the tight, super-charged world of TV shows are not as involved as weddings I do at real wedding venues, so don't think I require you to bring millions of viewers and a camera crew with you. A catering crew, sure, but no gaffers.

For Covid times: I'm even more good looking with a mask on.

I'm funny. So shoot me, I have a sense of humor. I can't lie about that. But you need to understand it's all strategy, a mentalist trick: if I make your guests laugh, they'll like me, and if they like me, they'll listen to me.  They'll pay attention. So when I switch gears and get serious with them about how beautiful your relationship is and how marvelous it is that you are getting married, they'll listen. They'll cry. They'll buy you a house. Everybody wins. 

So when I quote you a price, understand that you may pay more for my services than others, but it's worth it. I bring so much more to ceremonies than most officiants do - why? Because in addition to bringing a lot of life experience and wedding experience into my work, I love it more than I can explain. I am one of the luckiest people in the world because my job makes the most of my skills and passion.  

Your wedding ceremony deserves to be as great as the rest of it. In fact, the rest of your wedding will be better if the ceremony starts it off right.

That's why you should hire me.
