About this vendor

VOW TO BE DIFFERENT!!

IMAGINE YOUR WEDDING CEREMONY!

Forget everything you’ve ever seen because yours will be totally unique.

NO ONE WANTS TO SEE A WEDDING CEREMONY THEY’VE SEEN A DOZEN TIMES!

We blend words and experiences and emotions into a carefully crafted ceremony that expresses you perfectly! It will be funny. It will be moving. Close to perfect; far from boring! It will be a little unexpected and perhaps a little traditional, but it will be totally “you”.

So a little about you;

Do you feel that your ceremony is the centerpiece of your wedding day?

Do you hope your ceremony will be personal, creative and inspiring?

Do you want an officiant who will be your partner and friend in the planning?

Do you and your partner crave a wedding that's as unique as your love story? That will have your guests talking about for years?

Then we might be your SECOND perfect match!

We're not your “average” officiants. We’ve written thousands of weddings and now we're here to craft your unforgettable ceremony that will be:

- One-of-a-kind: Forget stuffy speeches and predictable vows. We'll work with you to weave your love into a narrative that's as funny, touching, and offbeat as you are. We can include your favorite readings, your hobbies, even your dog!

- Non-denominational: We celebrate love in all its glory, regardless of your beliefs or backgrounds. Your wedding should reflect your unique journey, not yesterday’s rules.
- Non-judgmental: We’re your ally regardless of age, heritage, sexual orientation or race.
- Personal AF: We'll dive deep into your story, your quirks, your inside jokes, and all the little things that make your love epic. We'll weave it all into a ceremony that feels like a warm hug from your best friends.

Entertaining: everyone is funny, especially when we’re in love! Expect witty banter, playful anecdotes, and lighthearted insights that your guests (and you) will love.

Ready to ditch the boring and embrace the extraordinary? Let's chat!

P.S. We offer packages for all budgets and visions, from elopements in the woods to full-blown extravaganzas. We're here to make your dream wedding a reality, no matter how quirky (or insane) it may seem at first.

So, what are you waiting for? Let's talk about your wedding and get those nagging questions answered!

We can't wait to celebrate your love story! We have confetti cannons waiting for you!

Personal, Genuine, Unforgettable Ceremony

Celia Milton was the perfect choice to officiate our wedding. She genuinely took the time to get to know us, provided us with help kits to get started on our vows and made the process extremely straightforward. After the ceremony too Celia remained in contact to ensure the name change process went smoothly.

About the ceremony- Celia’s words and preparation really fit my wife and myself like a glove. Her delivery was natural and really spoke volumes to recap our story and highlighted who we are as a couple to a tee. The audience was engaged and was moved (along with us- the bride and groom) by her words. Our preferences were more than acknowledged and taken into account.

About Celia- We will never forget how hard she worked to make sure our ceremony was perfect. Always was available, provided good advice and has followed up to ensure we stay on track- even after we were married. It was easy to confide in her about our story.

Coming from someone who wanted some elements of our Christian faith embedded in our wedding but making the ceremony about the couple- Celia really understood and put together a perfect ceremony for us.

Wedding officiant

Celia was absolutely fantastic! She made our day all the more special with her positive energy. Her ability to capture our 11 year relationship in a 17 minute ceremony, was truly impressive; So much so, that some of our guests came to us and asked if she was a family friend. We are both truly grateful to have had Celia be the one to marry us. If you want someone who is down to earth, thoughtful, and attentive; Then you need to pick Celia.

Celia Made Our Wedding Day Perfect!

From the get-go, Celia made me feel like I was talking to a family member. She was very attentive, funny and professional. She captured our life together so beautifully on the day of the wedding. Everyone was blown away and gave non-stop compliments on her delivery. Laughs, cries and everything in between. There is no question that Celia is a fantastic person and Officiant. If you are looking for a sign on who to hire for your big day, stop here. She's it!!! She was very helpful even after the wedding day with giving information on changing your name & obtaining your marriage certificate. I am so beyond happy she was here at our wedding with us. I HIGHLY recommend her! Thank you for everything Celia!

Michael was great!

Our wedding ceremony was everything we could have hoped for and more thanks to Michael. He truly went above and beyond in writing our ceremony script. When he sends you the questionnaire, do yourself a favor and take it seriously, and Micheal will reward you multiple times over by synthesizing your story into a beautiful ceremony.

Beautiful Backyard Wedding

From the moment I contacted Celia Milton for my wedding she made me feel so comfortable. Celia took the time to get to know me and my family. She was so friendly and inviting yet very professional! It was as if I was chatting with an old friend. Her professionalism was top tier and her attention to details to give a perfect and beautiful narrative of our lives and family dynamic was icing on the cake. At our ceremony there was a perfect balance of laughter and happy tears. I could not have created a more perfect ceremony if I tried. Celia Milton is the perfect balance of officiant and friend. Her words were beautiful and funny and sentimental and heart-warming and lovely. She captured our love perfectly. Thank you Celia for an amazing ceremony!!!

Highly recommend

Celia was our officiant for our April 2023 wedding at Ballyowen Golf Club in Hamburg, NJ. Not only is she very experienced in the industry, but is extremely personable and got to know us on a personal level to ensure that our ceremony reflected us as individuals and as a couple. Celia provided options for us to ensure we got our marriage license in our quick timeline (while we were living in different states!). Celia gave suggestions for the structure and content of her speech, and was open to any feedback before it was finalized. She also asked us to fill out a questionnaire to ensure that she knew everything she needed to know about us. We received many compliments from our guests about how much they loved Celia’s ceremony speech. We definitely recommend Celia for your wedding!
