Linden Grove Officiants is a partnership of Rev. Tracy and Sam. Linden Grove Officiants officiate wedding ceremonies throughout Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio. From intimate elopements at a park or family home to big celebrations at a large venue or a traditional church setting, we customize each couple's big day to match your religious, spiritual, or non-religious approach to loving commitment.
From your first meeting to your wedding, we will make sure that your ceremony experience matches your vision. Linden Grove Officiants are happy to officiate religious, non-religious, and interfaith ceremonies and affirm LGBTQIA+ couples. Couples are welcome to incorporate their own vows or a unique unity ritual and give your big day a truly personalized touch. We bring compassion and attentiveness to each couple we work with to help you achieve your dream wedding ceremony.
Our services include leading your rehearsal, arriving at the ceremony about 30 minutes before the service, and filing all legal paperwork following your ceremony. If you are looking for a venue, Pastor Tracy suggests First Christian Church in Covington Ky for a traditional church setting or Wiedemann Hill Mansion in Newport Ky for a non-traditional but beautiful and intimate setting.
