You need Harris as your Officiant!!!

Harris is amazing. His skill for making everyone laugh, smile, reflect, happy tear, feel, and live in the moment is one of a kind. He adds laughs at all the right moments and connects with the couple and guests as if he is a friend you have known for ages. Not only was the ceremony perfect, he gave us instructions about how the ceremony would be organized. This was extremely helpful as we learned to navigate wedding planning!! He showed up to the ceremony early and guided us on marriage license questions day of - clearly well-informed of the process from all his past experience doing this already.

Guests kept approaching us throughout the evening asking us where Harris was. They all wanted to go up to him and tell him how spectacular of a job he did.

Harris - THANK YOU! Newly engaged - don't think twice. Harris is AWESOME!!!!

Highly recommend

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect officiant for our wedding ceremony! Harris absolutely nailed everything we hoped for. He was professional, extremely responsive, and truly captured our vision from the very first conversation. The ceremony he crafted for us was personal, heartfelt, funny, and exactly the tone we wanted. Our guests were laughing and smiling throughout, and we’ve had so many people tell us it was one of the best ceremonies they’ve ever seen. Harris balanced humor and meaning beautifully, and working with him was so easy and enjoyable every step of the way. We are so grateful he was part of our day and highly recommend him to anyone looking for an incredible officiant.

Hire Harris!

Harris made our wedding ceremony the best part of our entire day. From the thoughtful questionnaire he provides—designed not only to help him get to know you as a couple but also to make you reflect on your love for one another—to the lighthearted, heartfelt ceremony he crafts, Harris creates something truly special. Our guests are still raving about how touching it was.

He was incredibly kind, funny, and easy to work with, answering every question and email with lightning-fast responses. He also showed up an hour before the ceremony to handle our marriage license and provide very detailed and helpful instructions on how to make our ceremony even better. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant. Highly recommend!

Professional officiant

That guy knows what he doing. He showed up 1 hr earlier before my wedding ceremony filled the license and told us what we should do on the ceremony. My ceremony was fun. People laughed:) The parental shout out in Russian was also funny:))

Amazing Officiant!

Harris was amazing to work with from start to finish. From the beginning, he was incredibly responsive - always responding to our emails within a matter of minutes. He was easy to work with, gave recommendations for readings, and was flexible when we had to make some last minute changes (it rained during our ceremony so we asked him to exclude one of the readings). So many of our guests complimented him and we're so glad we got to work with him!

The Best Officiant

Around the time I was engaged, my mom suggested I look into using Harris as my officiant which was the perfect choice. My husband and I absolutely loved working with Harris. Harris is professional and personable to work with. He knew the right questions to ask, and the ceremony felt personal to our story. Our ceremony was everything we could hope for, and our guests raved about the ceremony throughout the night. We would highly recommend Harris to anyone!

Exactly what we were looking for!

Harris was exactly what we were looking for in an officiant! He took the time to get to know us and create a personalized speech during the ceremony. His background as a comedian was definitely a hit! Not only did he bring the humor and make the ceremony actually fun, but he also had many touching remarks about our relationship that he dug out of us with his thoughtful questions ahead of time. It was the perfect balance of romantic and fun, which is exactly what we were looking for. Our guests had a lot of good things to say about him as well! He was also able to guide us on all the administrative things to do too, which was a huge help. We also love that he responds to emails practically instantly! We would definitely recommend him!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
