I've helped many couples create beautiful wedding ceremonies and have officiated at more than 1300 weddings in the past 25 yearrs. I'll work closely with you as we personalize your wedding service until it is exactly what you want.
Whether you want a traditional service in a traditional setting or a personalized ceremony in a non-traditional setting, I'll help you create the perfect wedding ceremony for you.
Whether you want a Christian faith or inter-faith ceremony or a spiritual but not religious ceremony, we can create it together.

Dear Reverend James;
We thank you for taking the time to communicate with us in Australia and to be our officiant when we arrived here. We had so much fun on our wedding day at Tavern-on-the Green which you helped provide with your wit and charm during the ceremony! We'll call you for a reunion party when we get back to New York City in the future. Thanks much!, Caroline and Jon
Providing you with as much guidance as you want and as much flexibility as you desire
If you were raised in a formal religious church or tradition but no longer consider yourself "religious" but rather "spiritual" then I can help you create the perfect wedding ceremony that reflects both of your spiritualities.

Thousands of couples in the Tri-State area want to get married on the same 30 weekends each year. Unfortunately, I can only be at one place at a time. It is never too early to reserve a date.
