About

We have all been to wedding ceremonies that feel like they came from a box. No matter how well spoken, doesn't it seem like most wedding ceremonies start to sound the same? It doesn't have to be that way. This is your wedding and your story matters. I create unique and extraordinary ceremony experiences.

A heartfelt, personal ceremony creates a swell of excitement and joy that flows right into the reception and sets the tone for a magical event. How do I know this, because I have officiated for hundreds of ceremonies in the past 5 years across Connecticut, New England and for destination weddings abroad.

My name is Elisa Chase, I am an ordained non-denominational Minister and a certified Life Cycle Celebrant® Creating a heartfelt, personalized ceremony that you and your family and friends will remember forever, is my goal. If you are looking for something more than a standard ceremony, that embraces your perspectives, I would love to talk to you about how we can work together to craft a wedding ceremony that becomes a meaningful and integrated part of your wedding experience.

I bring an open mind and heart, a collaborative style, a contemporary, creative approach, and all the organizational tools needed. All you bring is eachother and your story. We can take it from there. I believe you should have as much input into your wedding ceremony as you do in all the other aspects of your wedding day and I have a standard time honored process that starts and ends with YOU. Your ceremony is written just for you, and you approve every word.

Remember all the reasons you fell in love, hold onto the way you make eachother feel, walk down the aisle confident and excited. Your wedding ceremony will affirm your commitment and leave you feeling wonderful.

Elisa was amazing as our wedding officiant, and I can’t say enough great things about her! From the very beginning of our planning, to creating our own unique wedding ceremony, to the rehearsal, and the day of, Elisa was there with us every step of the way. She was able to custom create a wedding ceremony that really reflected our love and commitment to one another. I’ve had to sit through plenty of stuffy ceremonies, and Elisa understood what we were looking for, and was able to create a ceremony that was truly ours. When you book with Elisa, you know that you will be in great hands since you’ll be working with THE BEST!

We can't enough good things about working with Elisa. We Loved the process of creating out ceremony and we felt that it really spoke to us and to those who knew us.

Because our ceremony was not the same old thing, people stopped and listened and felt involved and happy for us. So many people came up to us after the ceremony to ask how we found Elisa and we made a ceremoy so unique, warm and reak.

We really did not have to worry about anything, every little thing was organized and easy. Finding the right person to do our ceremony because we are not overly religious was difficult, but choosing Elisa was easy! From our first meeting, we knew this was going to be perfect and it was.

From the first time we talked to Elisa on the phone until the moment that she completed our ceremony, it was nothing but a total pleasure to work with her. She is eloquant and professional, warm, inviting and reassuring and she is on top of every detail. She wrote a ceremony that was totally unique but yet, totally understandable to everyone. We give her our highest and most sincere recommendation. We should probably also mention we were from out of state and Elisa worked with us by phone, skpe and email. She was just awesome.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
