Your Wedding Officiant

Tell me a little bit about your business!

I am an ordained Married Catholic Priest/Minister who specializes in working with non-denominational couples who desire to get married, but, for whatever reason, may not be able to do so in their particular church. The associate Ministers with whom I work and I are solely focused on you and your desire to get married. Although the ceremonies we perform are not recognized by the Catholic Church, they are by the states in which we work. We at Your Wedding Officiant strive to provide you with a ceremony that is reflective of “Your Life, Your Love, Your Wedding!”.

Regardless of your religious affiliation, if any, we work with you to provide ceremonies that are reflective of you and your relationship. We perform ceremonies indoors or outdoors, religious or totally non-religious. We accept couples of all genders and previous marital status. We work to provide you with an as stress-free wedding ceremony as we can. We have a “No Surprise Policy.” We make every attempt to provide you with a draft copy of your ceremony so that you are able to review it and, if necessary, make any changes you desire. We are all excellent officiants who strive to make the couple’s choices and desires our main objective.

What makes your work unique?

We are unique in that we work with each individual couple to tailor a ceremony for them and them alone. I have developed a unique system of ceremony selection that has been well-received by the couples with whom we have worked. It is especially well-received by couples who are planning from out-of-state. All couples have found that there is an abundance of choices in the initial planning steps. Yet we go over and above the initial choices by working with couples and tailoring their choices to be reflective of them as a couple. We offer a menu-choice of planning modes dependent upon your desires and budget. In our system, you determine the cost by the choices you make for your ceremony. Past reviews have shown we are adaptable and easy to work with.

What is your ideal client like?

Our ideal couple desires to get married! We are realistic enough to recognize that the ceremony is the precursor to the party for many couples. That being said, we work with the couple to provide them with a ceremony that will be a great memory to those who attend. We base our entire methodology on meeting the couple where they are at and working with them. As a whole, we are a group that is comprised of fun-loving individuals who, when the occasion calls for it, can also be serious and solemn. The couple is the one who sets our demeanor.

Rave Reviews

Minister Judith Shannon was very easy to work with. I was nervous that I might say my vows wrong but she said simple sentences and it was so easy to repeat after her. We didn't have time to rehearse for the wedding so she gave us the cues throughout the ceremony. She spoke to the best man, groom, and me right before the wedding and explained all the aspects of what to do and what not to do. We felt very prepared.

Rev. Wargo was great to work with. He was very professional, on time, and well prepared. He communicated well and his email/instructions were very thorough. He was one of the vendors who was very kind and understanding to couples planning a wedding during the crazy pandemic times and I would definitely recommend his services to future couples.

Paige & Matthew September 19, 2020

Rev. Dennis was a pleasure to work with. He provided so much guidance on how to put a ceremony program together with tons of suggestions for the script. We loved being able to customize a ceremony that represented who we are and what’s important to us. Throughout the entire process, he made sure we knew we could call or meet with him if we had any questions or concerns.
