Our Wedding Officiant NYC

Peter was remarkable! He truly made our big day all come together, was so helpful and made things so much easier on us. Our wedding was better than we couldve imagined. I would, without question, recommend him to anyone!

Peter was an exceptional officiant for our NYC wedding in Central Park. Like everyone else, we scoured the internet for reputable officiants after hearing stories about officiants being late or not showing up at all (GASP!). We saw Peter's youtube videos showing the different spots to get married in Central Park which was exceptionally helpful and after seeing these videos and how generally likeable he was, we reached out to him for an interview. During the zoom-meeting interview, Peter gave an overview of getting married in NYC and reminding of us the marriage license requirements which was helpful. Just talking to him and meeting him live online, we felt he was serious about his work - that this wasn't some side hustle to make a few bucks. We wanted an officiant who looked "official" like professional but not stuffy. I've seen some women officiants dress in bold color dresses or awful print dresses - which really disrupts the photos(!) - and I didn't want that in our wedding pictures. On Peters website we could see his attire was respectful and professional, just a really well-put-together person and he delivered that on our elopement. After the interview, He provided a detailed template on how the ceremony would go, what he would say and provided options that could be included (e.g. lighting a candle, breaking the glass, etc). He also welcomed any language changes and/or additions. We changed some words and opted out of a few options to make the ceremony our own and Peter was very accepting of our changes. I definitely recommend hiring Peter for your elopement or wedding- big or small.

Peter is a true pleasure to work with! Hes responsive, patient, and very detailed. As our wedding officiant, we love that he incorporated our ideas and we felt it right to have a vendor who is also out and proud. Furthermore, his performance during the ceremony was booming, had great energy and projection, no mic needed! We would gladly recommended him.

Peter was amazing. He made us feel totally comfortable, was ultra responsive and did an amazing job on our wedding day. Peter was always available to answer any questions we had. He is an amazing speaker. Multiple people came up to me the day of our wedding to tell me how great of a job our officiant did. I wholeheartedly recommended him!

What can I say ... the process of finding a wedding officiant can be super difficult, the ceremony is such a massive part of the wedding, and I had searched and searched and searched to find someone who was what we felt would fit our wedding vibe classic wedding vibe, who could approach this matter with seriousness but also with a touch of light heartedness and from the first phone call with Peter I knew HE WAS GOING TO BE JUST THAT. after that first phone call, he sent us a draft of the wedding script, and we edited a few things sent it back, and also needed his expertise on wording for a few others. The script was nailed down in just a few emails! The day of - he showed up early, and ready to deliver! At the ceremony he was captivating and eloquent. His voice is strong yet soft spoken, he sounds kind and caring, Peter annunciates and has a way with his words. In short - he is MEMORABLE. and who wouldn't want to remember the most important day of their lives. My guests HONESTLY could not stop talking about how wonderful the ceremony was. Some said they've been to so many weddings, and often time the ceremony is boring or drab, and that they found themselves truly listening to the words he was speaking. In addition to this we had a few mishaps (being a public setting, prospect park boathouse) with park goers being a little loud and honestly disrespectful (shouting at us from behind us, I think the guy was drunk lol) , Peter did not bat an eye, but instead rolled with the punches, and worked it into the ceremony - relaxing myself, my husband, and the guests. lastly, I remember that I wanted to ask Peter to step out of the way for our first kiss, so that we could have those photos with out the officiant in the background . naturally, with all the stresses of wedding planning I forgot. However, Peter did this on his own ... a true testament to his professionalism, expertise, and consideration. If you are looking for an officiant who is kind, caring, and captivating, that has a passion for what he does and clearly loves love - look no further! you have found him :)
