I am pleased to offer a diverse range of wedding services, including both faith-based and secular ceremonies. It's important to note, however, that while I can marry Catholics, I am not able to perform Catholic rituals, services, or sacraments. From intimate elopements in your dining room to fully formal weddings in your desired location, I can customize your service to best suit your preferences, even assisting with the writing of your own vows. I hold a valid Ohio wedding license, offering my services to neighboring areas.
Dedicated to making your day as special as possible, I am always available via phone or in-person meetings, depending on the distance. As a licensed ordained minister, I am also available for funeral and graveside services and can even perform baptisms. Please feel free to peruse my reviews or contact me with any questions you may have.
Please take a moment to review my payment policies outlined below.
Christian, Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, Interfaith, Non-denominational (mentions God), Non-religious (no mention of God)

With only a brief notice, John was accessible and accommodating with our time change. Moreover, he designed a ceremony that catered to our needs and preferences. His approach was personalized and our experience was both unique and intimate. Throughout the process, John was supportive and guided us through every step of the way. He ensured that we were at ease during our special moment, from the on-site arrival and fulfilling all necessary documentation to witnessing our signing. Without hesitation, I strongly suggest John as a professional and amiable officiant for anyone’s wedding.

Our wedding ceremony took place in our own family room, where John brought in some witnesses. It was a quick elopement, and within just thirty minutes, we became husband and wife. I strongly recommend The Wedding Officiant for anyone who wants a memorable wedding day. We're grateful for the experience and will cherish that moment for the rest of our lives!
