Congratulations! You're getting married.

Are you looking for a heartwarming and captivating ceremony? Do you believe that your wedding day should actually be about the two of you? That's what I do!

Meet Me at the Altar Wedding Services specializes in officiating beautiful and unique weddings, elopement ceremonies, and vow renewals throughout the Hudson Valley and Tri-state Area (NY, NJ, CT, PA)

I am a wedding officiant who is dedicated to giving couples a custom-written, fun, meaningful and memorable wedding ceremony. Love and storytelling are my passion, and it is the reason I love to do what I do. Each love story is unique, and by learning about your love, and listening, I am able to create something special that you will love, and your guests will never forget. As a trained and ordained multi-faith officiant and minister, I conduct spiritual and faith-based ceremonies, as well as non-denominational, civil, and non-religious ceremonies. I welcome and love to work with all kinds of couples.

As your love story is different ,so should your ceremony. I am open to customize your special day with beautiful additions such as jumping the broom, handfasting, unity candle lighting, sand ceremony and so much more. My goal is to help you create the kind of ceremony that brings your wedding day visions to life.

I officiate wedding ceremonies at the venue or location of your choosing and I am often available on short notice. Upon advanced request, I am available for destination weddings. With my officiating service, I offer a free, no-obligation consultation to become familiar and discuss your visions for your wedding ceremony. I want to make sure we're a great fit for each other.

Meet Me at the Altar also offers non-officiating services such as , vow writing, speech writing for maid of honor/best man, love story write up, and wedding script. Feel free to contact me to discuss all options.

Very Heartwarming Ceremony done by Ope

I have met Ope some time ago in our home town and found out she was officiating weddings. I knew her to be of good moral character and selected her to be our officiant. She worked with us and made our wedding memorable, fun and endearing. She spoke eloquently, organized us and our wedding party and made our say super special. I can't thank her enough and I highly recommend Ope. She's amazing at what she does!!!

Fantastic!!

I can't say enough about working with Ope to officiate our wedding! She was wonderful to work with and took the time to learn about us to make our ceremony personal. Everyone commented on what a lovely service it was, how great Ope was, and how personalized our ceremony was. She is a wonderful person and we enjoyed working with her and getting to know her!! If you're looking for an officiant, she is definitely the one to choose!!

Ope the Officiant

We were so pleased to have OPE officiate our wedding ceremony. Her personality fit perfectly with ours and we are now her unofficial “Aunties”. 😊 She made us feel incredibly special on our very special day.
