Grateful for jason!

Jason Longo is the BEST officiant anyone could wish for! It was extremely important to us for our wedding ceremony to be meaningful and authentic, and Jason beyond delivered. Our entire experience with him was wonderful, from our first phone call, to filling out our couples questionnaire, to final consultations, to coordinating our entire rehearsal, to finally performing a beautiful ceremony that had everyone in joyful tears. Jason put both us and our bridal party at ease. He even ran through breathing exercises with me before the ceremony because I was so nervous! Jason also takes care of the marriage license, and he comes highly recommended from Town Hall as well for being so professional and knowledgeable. I cannot recommend Jason enough to perform anyone's wedding ceremony, and we're so thankful that we were lucky enough to work with him!

The Absolute Best

We had the most amazing experience with Jason as our officiant for our wedding on 9/5/2026. He curated a beautiful, heartfelt, unique ceremony/experience for us that we will never forget. Jason is so kind, caring and has the most calming presence. He was with us every step of the way and went above and beyond in making sure that everything was taken care of. From handling our rehearsal, to running the ceremony and taking care of our marriage license! Jason took away so much of our stress and worry. We couldn’t have imagined the day without him and we are so appreciative for all he did for us!

Perfect amount of personal touch

We asked jason to officiate our wedding less than 1 month before the ceremony, but if you were there, you would have thought he knew my wife and I all our lives. He made the moment so personal, he was so in tune with us and did whatever he could to ease the day, Thank you Jason!!

Absolutely Amazing

Jason was amazing and I would highly recommend him! He helped me and my husband with our nerves and walked us through everything we would need to know. He guided us through the ceremony seamlessly and everything went perfect. He also was able to incorporate our story in the ceremony to make it our own and very personal to us. There were cries and laughs and it was beautiful. Overall I couldn’t have asked for a better person to marry us.

The best, most caring officiant ever!

I first met Jason when he officiated my friend’s wedding. As a bridesmaid, I saw him go out of his way to check in with my friend before and after the ceremony, making her feel calm and assured about the process before it started. His calming presence set the tone for the whole day! For my own wedding Jason was professional, genuine, and thorough throughout the whole planning process. He answered all my questions, walked me through the steps of the ceremony and all of the nuances (who holds the rings, where the vow books go, the timing and logistics of everything behind the scenes). Our ceremony was individualized, unique to us, romantic, and that is all due to Jason’s presence and ability to share our love and story in front of our friends and family. I cannot recommend him enough, he is absolutely phenomenal!!

The Most Amazing Officiant

Jason went above and beyond everything that we expected from an officiant. We reached out to a few potential officiants, but Jason was the only one that seemed welcoming and warm, and was willing to meet us in person.

During that first meeting where he explained how the ceremony would go, he was very thorough and made us feel very comfortable. Our wedding was not for over a year, but over the course of that time he would regularly check in and make sure that we were doing well.

Jason asked for some worksheets, that were actually fun to fill out, that gave him a better idea of who we were so that he could tailor our ceremony. I can say that he made it feel so personable, like he knew us as friends.

His tying of the hands ceremony was absolutely beautiful and he again went above and beyond when finding and purchasing ribbon to match our wedding colors. He helped our wedding coordinator on the day of to make sure that everything went smoothly. Just everything Jason was involved in was amazing.

If you are looking for someone that is personable, compassionate, respectful, knowledgeable, a fantastic public speaker, and someone that will make your big day something very special, look to Jason.

Can’t recommend Jason enough for your wedding!

Jason is amazing! He performed the ceremony for my wedding and did a great job of customizing it to make the experience unique for my husband and I. Jason is always very professional, easy to talk to, and happy to accommodate any requests from the couple - also highly recommend his marriage counseling services!

Highly Recommend!


Jason was the best officiant we could have asked for! He is very attentive, professional, well spoken, and kind. My fiancé left the marriage license at the hotel the day of the wedding and Jason made sure I didn’t worry about it. One of my bridesmaids missed the rehearsal and Jason took extra care to talk with her the day of to make sure she knew what to do. He was also great with the flower girls, he promised them each $1 after walking down the aisle and instead gave them $5 each!
