About me:

My name is Ryan, and I'm an experienced, skilled wedding officiant who has led religious and non-religious wedding ceremonies in South Florida since 2007. Over the years, I've teamed up with hundreds of outstanding couples, performed multiple ceremonies at both indoor and outdoor locations across the tri-county region (including our fantastic beaches). Many of the couples I've worked with initially found me on CrackerJack. Since 2017, I've earned a consistent CrackerJack Top Pro designation. Furthermore, for many years, I've maintained a five-star rating on all of my evaluations.

I enjoy being a wedding officiant. Collaborating with each couple to create and conduct their ideal wedding ceremony brings me immense joy. Customer service is my top priority. If my couple is unhappy, I'm not happy. My objective is to ensure that you are wholly pleased at the conclusion of your wedding ceremony. With over ten years of experience overseeing all types of weddings, from traditional to non-traditional, religious, spiritual, and non-religious, throughout South Florida, I've interacted with couples from various religions, cultures, countries of origin, sexual orientations, and gender identities, from all walks of life.

I'm pleased with myself to be the easiest aspect of your wedding planning. I believe my natural charisma and professional demeanor contribute significantly to my success. It allows me to conduct beautiful, masterfully performed ceremonies that generate happy memories for my couples and their guests for years to come. These have also resulted in guest recommendations for me to perform ceremonies for their family and friends. My ratings speak volumes about the care and devotion I put into each wedding ceremony I conceive and lead. I have fond memories of my couples, many of whom I've stayed in contact with through the years. I've seen the love they share in their married lives grow exponentially and beautiful families created as a result of their unions.

As previously stated, choosing the appropriate wedding officiant is a critical decision since they set the tone for your entire wedding day. I will be pleased to discuss the matter with you in greater depth and exhibit how I may be the officiant best suited to get your married life off to a great start. Let's work together to transform the most important day of your life into one of the finest.

With regard to Covid-19 safety measures: I've been triple-vaccinated. Furthermore, I reserve the option to wear a mask before and after the ceremony, and only (typically) wear it during the ceremony if my couples request it. I carry hand sanitizer with me and strive to remain six feet away from my couples and their guests both before and after the ceremony, as well as during the ceremony, if room allows. I'm fully committed to keeping my couples, their wedding guests, any vendors, and myself healthy and safe at all times. Please let me know if you have any additional concerns regarding these precautions.

I'm excited to speak with you soon. Have a fantastic day!
