I'm new to Zola, but I have been performing weddings since 2017- check out my website for more reviews! I have performed over 250 weddings, vow renewals, and commitment ceremonies (traditional and same sex). I'm ordained solely to perform weddings; Christian, non-denominational, secular, and judgment-free. I am an active member of a local church community. As a veteran, I offer a military discount. Please indicate your military status when you request a quote. I thoroughly enjoy meeting new couples, and I make every effort to perform the ceremony to your expectations. It is an honor to perform weddings, and I look forward to working with you.

We truly could not have asked for a better officiant for our wedding! Eloise was everything we hoped for kind, professional, and incredibly organized and she went above and beyond to create a ceremony that was heartfelt, personal, and unforgettable. From our very first interaction, she made everything feel so easy. She brought us a full, beautifully written ceremony plan that felt like it was crafted just for us. She took the time to get to know our story and wove it into the ceremony in such a meaningful way from our high school beginnings and proposal at Wallace Park, to the small things that make our relationship special, like our shared love of travel and beach trips. One of our favorite parts was how she incorporated the Sand Ceremony. It was something we really wanted, and she made it feel so symbolic and unique to us. Her words during that moment, about blending our lives while still honoring who we are as individuals, were so touching. Standing together at that table, surrounded by our loved ones, felt like the perfect representation of our union. She also honored our late grandparents with such grace and respect, bringing them into the ceremony in a way that felt spiritual and comforting. From her guidance for our family during the opening, to the blessing at the end, she brought clarity, presence, and peace to every step. She managed to strike the perfect balance between emotional, thoughtful, and light-hearted (including a little humor that made us and our guests smile!). Every guest felt included and every word felt intentional. Having her as our officiant made our ceremony not just official, but truly meaningful. We are so grateful for her work and presence on such an important day. If you are looking for someone who will thoughtfully and lovingly guide you through your wedding ceremony, she is absolutely the one. Thanks again! – Logan & Kaelyn

Love, Honor, and Cherish Weddings

Vernon Rockville, CT
  • Offers 8 ceremony types
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Connecticut

Why settle for the same clichéd, predictable service everyone else uses? You're unique, and your wedding should be, too. I'll work with you to design the perfect ceremony to match your own individual style and personality.

The comfort and ease that Dave brought to the wedding with his reassuring, “I’ve got this, whatever you want, it’s your wedding” attitude was exactly what an anxious bride needed. We are not a religious couple, nor are we especially romantic, but we still wanted a traditional, classic ceremony. That balance was perfectly achieved because Dave actively listens to his clients and offers a variety of unique options. I cannot overstate how much overthinking and stressing I did about every other aspect of the wedding, but I was so relaxed and confident that the ceremony would be perfect, and I was right. Over a year later my husband and I still talk about how the ceremony was the best part of the night. If you’re looking for an officiant who will come to you with an open mind, no judgement, and genuine care, there is no better person than David Lang.

I've been performing full Ministry services for folks from ALL walks of life since before CT legalized Marriage Equality in 2008. My belief is that any vendor should remember that this is the most important day of your life, and we should work as a team to make your day everything that you could want.

Donna Katsuranis, our wedding officiant, was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the start, her down-to-earth communication style put us at ease and made planning the ceremony a breeze. Donna was always open to our ideas and also provided great suggestions to help us add personal touches that made the day even more special. On the day of, she thoughtfully wore a dress that matched our wedding colors, which was a nice detail. Donna also gave us plenty of guidance before and during the ceremony, which was especially helpful since I was a little nervous standing up in front of everyone. But her calming presence allowed me to focus on the moment and our vows. Donna's easy-going nature and commitment to making our wedding day perfect is something we'll always be grateful for.

She was knowledgable about a variety of cultural traditions and helped us incorporate the Irish Hand Fasting Blessing into our ceremony, providing us with an everlasting, unique memory and memento (the handfasting chord) of our promises to each other. We received several compliments from our wedding guests about Lauri's ease and professionalism while she officiated our wedding. We highly recommend her! - Tess, May 2025 Bride, Bill Miller's Castle
