One of a kind and truly worth the investment!

I cannot over emphasize how thankful I am to have hired Nico to officiate our wedding ceremony. Other than our wedding planner and the venue itself, I honestly think Nico was the best investment we made in our wedding day.

We had to ask Nico to travel quite a hefty and inconvenient distance for us. Sure, when you add up travel fees and regular booking costs, we certainly could have saved some money by hiring an officiant closer to our venue. However, by spending the extra money to hire Nico, we got much more than just the best wedding officiant ever. We also got a vow consultant, a social media documentarian, an extra videographer, a very fun extra reception guest for what ended up being a micro-wedding, and most importantly, a friend :)

What Nico does is create a fully bespoke ceremony script that will function as the beginning to the experience that will be your wedding day. He treats the ceremony as an integral part of the whole day, rather than a formality that everyone except the couple will inevitably forget. My husband and I live in Las Vegas, where there are hundreds of people offering impersonator services to artificially create a unique and memorable wedding ceremony. Rather than throw on an Elvis costume and rehash the same script for hundreds of couples each year, Nico spends a lot of time listening to you as a couple and as individuals. He uses his talents as a screenwriter to tell your story in a comedic, dramatic, cinematic, and wholly memorable fashion. He finds ways of making your story relatable, funny, and PG even when it may not be.

Our guests were all so impressed by Nico’s writing and delivery of our ceremony. Even people we’ve known since the beginning of our relationship said they felt like they learned something new about us. Like I said, even though we only hired Nico for the ceremony, he was kind enough to stick around and be an additional guest at our reception. After dealing with multiple last minute drop outs in addition to the usual turnout you get with a remote and rural destination wedding, we really appreciated the upbeat energy Nico brought to our entire wedding day.

So, if you are like us and you want your ceremony to be a fun opening act to the best party you’ll ever throw, I’m not lying when I say, HIRE MR. ROMCOM WEDDINGS! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! There is truly no one else like him, and his services are one of a kind.

Thank you again, Nico, we will always be thankful to have had you be a part of our wedding day!

Just hire Nico already!

Wow. Wow. And another WOW! Nico was a fantastic officiant at my wedding. So kind and professional. Once my partner and I met Nico via Zoom, we knew his humor and charisma were just what we wanted at our ceremony. And Nico certainly delivered with his background in screenwriting/filmmaking. From a video interview and couple questionnaires, he was able to craft a wonderful retelling of my love story with my partner. He then tied it all together with a movie quote from one my favorite films When Harry Met Sally. I don't think I could've told it any better!

Before the ceremony, I was a bit nervous. But Nico put my partner and I at ease by going over a quick gameplan with us. And everything ran smoothly. The crowd was full of joy and laughs. During the reception, multiple guests came up to us and raved about Nico and said it was one of the best ceremonies they have ever attended.

If you want something a little outside the box, especially if you're a movie lover, Nico is just the guy to liven up your ceremony!

Nico understood the assignment! Uh huh… uh huh… he UNDERSTOOD the assignment!

If you are looking for an officiant who brings heart, humor, presence, professionalism, and pure storytelling magic, Nico is the one. We had a very specific vision for our ceremony, for it to be the most important part of our wedding day, to be community centered rooted in equality and partnership. Nico delivered that and so much more. He took his time to know us with a few zoom calls and over 100 emails. The ceremony made us feel relaxed, in love, and fully present the entire time. It genuinely felt like he reinforced everything my husband and I believe about our relationship and the way we show up for each other.
We’re huge fans of storytelling, so we wanted an officiant who could tell our love story with all the twists and turns; basically, something worthy of a TLC episode. Nico knocked it out of the ballpark!!! He even made a surprise entrance that had everyone excited for the ceremony. We wanted someone who could fly by the seat of his pants, and he did exactly that. At one point I interrupted him mid ceremony with an additional comment, and he didn’t miss a beat! He kept the flow going perfectly. Although he typically delivers a 30 minute ceremony, we asked for something longer with a modified unity ceremony, modified traditional vows, and a modified ring warming ritual. He took his time, honored every request, and somehow still made it feel shorter than 30 minutes. Multiple people asked, “Wait… that was really 45 minutes? It felt like 15!”
Friends even asked if he was our cousin because he fit in so naturally with everyone. He even picked up inside jokes from our families and wove them into the ceremony. We included a unity ceremony that only the bride’s parents and siblings knew, and afterward my parents could not stop raving at how it was the most perfect execution they could have ever wished for. The father of the groom said Nico captured our love with both the bride and groom in equal parts; exactly what we asked for when we told him we wanted a ceremony centered on equality and partnership. He didn’t just meet that request; he exceeded it by showing how we practice that in our love story. My brother even asked Nico if he would officiate his wedding in 15 years when he’s around 29 or 30. And honestly, the ceremony became the highlight for so many guests. A few couples left absolutely love infested and joked about wanting to get married within a year with a similar ceremony. Our guests were literally obsessed.
He also went above and beyond with logistics. Even though we had already looked into the marriage license process, Nico personally called the county clerk’s office to make sure every “T” was crossed and every “I” was dotted so we’d be fully prepared. That level of care meant everything.
His communication was always respectful and professional, even when discussing financial details. Especially when we were negotiating travel and lodging, he stayed patient, flexible, and kind. He never made us feel uncomfortable or difficult. He worked with us every step of the way.
We recommend Nico wholeheartedly. He’s professional, reasonable, creative, and always prepared with contingency plans. He’s open to fun ideas (he didn’t even blink at our dramatic entrance request), and he brings genuinely good suggestions of his own. Nico didn’t just understand the assignment… he redefined it. Thank you Nico! Should we throw a wedding every year so we can see you every year?! You have become a great friend!

Thank you Nico!!

We are so grateful that we found Nico to be our officiant! Our ceremony was completely personalized, hilarious, and heartfelt in a way that we didn’t even know was possible when we first started envisioning our wedding day.

We interviewed a lot of potential officiants but immediately felt at home with Nico. We booked him right away with the package that gave us multiple Zoom calls with him as a couple and also as individuals. Those calls were some of our favorite memories of the entire wedding planning process. He spent hours getting to know us, asking us a combination of lighthearted and deeper questions about us as individuals and about the entire course of our relationship, from many years ago to present day. It felt like talking to a good friend and reminiscing about our lives. He asked us what we wanted the vibe/tone of the ceremony to be, if there were any boundaries/dynamics to worry about, and all the other details needed to put us at ease. It was clear to us that Nico cared immensely about his craft but also about us as people.

The ceremony itself blew us away. He turned the whole thing into a rom com-style love story that was completely unique to us, based on all his notes from the many hours we had spent together in the months leading up to our wedding day. We (and our guests) laughed, cried, and everything in between. Many of our guests and vendors said it was the best and the most unique ceremony they had ever attended. We can’t recommend him enough.

Thank you Nico!!!!

If you're looking for an officiant — truly, stop searching, you've found him.

We are so grateful to have found Nico. From our Zoom call to the moment he officiated our ceremony, it felt like we’d known him for years. His warmth, humour, calmness, and genuine nature instantly put us at ease. The vows he wrote for us were absolutely perfect — personal, thoughtful, and beautifully tailored.

He also filmed our elopement, and when we shared it with our family and friends, they laughed, cried, and couldn’t stop commenting on how brilliant, heartfelt, and funny he was. It was everything we dreamed of.

As someone who writes romantic comedies, discovering the romcom officiant honestly felt like fate. Nico exceeded every expectation we didn’t even know we had.

He guided us through the legal process with ease, communicated clearly, and was a joy to work with from start to finish.

Would we recommend him to other couples?
In a heartbeat.

He is a rare find, and we feel so lucky that he was part of our story.

Hands down, the BEST ceremony ever!

Hands down, the BEST ceremony ever! We cannot say enough amazing things about RomCom Weddings! I had multiple guests tell me our ceremony was the best they’ve ever been to, it had the perfect balance of romance and comedy that truly felt like us. It was heartfelt, funny, and meaningful all at once. Even though Nico was already booked for our wedding day, he went above and beyond to accommodate us by having his fill-in, Dan, step in. Let me tell you Dan absolutely nailed it! The ceremony felt personalized and seamless, like Nico had known us for years and saw our love story unfold. If you want a ceremony that will make your guests laugh, tear up, and remember your wedding for years to come, you have to go with RomCom Weddings. Very professional, organized, and genuinely care about making your love story shine!

Nico is seriously the BEST!

Our ceremony was hands down my favorite part of the entire wedding day — and that’s all thanks to Nico. He crafted something so personal, sweet, and funny that felt perfectly tailored to us. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how meaningful and unique the ceremony was, and we honestly couldn’t have imagined anyone better to guide us into marriage.
