Everyone was moved!

We are beyond grateful to have had Frank as our wedding officiant! From the very beginning, he took the time to truly get to know us as a couple—our story, our values, and the vision we had for the day.

On our wedding day, Frank set the perfect tone—warm, genuine, and filled with love. We especially appreciated the jokes sprinkled in to lighten the mood! His words moved not only us, but everyone in attendance. So many of our guests told us afterward that it was one of the most meaningful and memorable ceremonies they had ever witnessed.

Frank brought such a calming presence to the day, and we felt fully supported and at ease.
We could not have imagined a better officiant to lead us into marriage. If you are looking for someone who will dedicate their time to making your ceremony truly unforgettable, we wholeheartedly recommend Frank!

Thank you Frank!

Frank is a totally cool dude and from the moment we met him we knew we were in good hands! He took the time to understand our story and what we envisioned for our wedding ceremony, he also wished well for our family which I appreciated a ton . He crafted a ceremony that was personal and heartfelt and our guests talked about how engaging and meaningful the service he provided was. Frank has a wonderful sense of humor, which helped us feel relaxed, eased some nerves, and got me ready to walk down the aisle and enjoy every moment. I’m so grateful for his guidance and for making our wedding ceremony so special. I highly recommend Frank to any couple looking for a thoughtful and professional officiant! Thank you again Frank!!

10/10 - A Ceremony We Will Never Forget

Frank crafted such a beautiful and intimate ceremony for my husband and I - one we will never forget. From the moment we first spoke, he took the time to get to know my husband and I's story. He asked us what our preferences were from how we'd like him to address us to the color tie we'd want him to wear! I was shocked by his willingness to make it as perfect for us as possible. During the ceremony, Frank was kind, patient, and a good sense of humor! All of our family had nothing but good things to say about Frank. About a week after the ceremony I started to ask myself how I would get a hold of my wedding certificate - that same day I received a letter from Frank in the mail. There it was - a set of very clear instructions on how I could obtain my marriage license. In addition to that, he made a beautiful personalized pamphlet of our ceremony - word for word of what he read that day with our names and our wedding date on it. When I read it, I re-lived my wedding day and its something I can share with my future children some day!! I would 10/10 recommend Frank to be a part of your special day.

Five Stars

Frank Meola was an incredible officiant for our wedding at the Surf and Sand Resort in Laguna Beach. In the months and weeks leading up to our ceremony, Frank was highly communicative and professional. He provided excellent guidance on everything we needed—from navigating the marriage license process to discussing our expectations for the ceremony. He made sure every detail aligned with our vision and made us feel confident and prepared.

On the day of our wedding, Frank was punctual, organized, and ready with all the necessary paperwork. Although we were originally scheduled to get married on the beach, unexpected rain forced us to pivot at the last minute. Frank handled the change seamlessly, suggesting we move the ceremony to the balcony of our hotel room. His ability to adapt quickly and calmly ensured that everything went perfectly.

Frank is not only professional and conscientious but also warm, friendly, and relatable—qualities that make him the ideal officiant. He created a ceremony that was both memorable and meaningful, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. If you are looking for an officiant who will go above and beyond to make your day special, we wholeheartedly recommend Frank!

Simply the best… A true professional and wonderful Officiant.

We used Frank for our November 2024, Malibu, CA wedding and couldn’t be happier. When I say Frank is the absolute best, he really is. He takes all the stress and worries out of your big day and with his preparedness, professionalism and humor you can truly feel at ease knowing you are in good hands with Frank.

Being from Vegas, Frank guided us through every step of the process to obtain a California marriage license. He did all the paperwork and all we had to do was review it for accuracy; talk about a nice perk, which alleviated a ton of anxiety, not to mention, the sheer savings in our time.

Before our wedding, Frank took the time to get to know us to add meaningful personalization to our wedding. The day of our wedding Frank arrived early, even though he had to travel over 2 hours to get to our Malibu location; talk about a great guy. Frank made us laugh countless times throughout the day and complimented every aspect of our wedding. The ceremony was absolutely perfect and the beautiful California sunset made everything just breathtaking.

If you’re looking for an Officiant, look no further as Frank is simply the best. A+++

Thank you Frank,

Dave and Jillane

Frank is the best!

Frank made our wedding ceremony so special and memorable. He was so great to work with and we really appreciated how organized and thorough he was. We loved that he took the time to review our ceremony reading choices with us and helped us understand the full process. Our family loved Frank, as did we! He is so easy going and funny that we knew we were in good hands from the start. He arrived early and even coordinated with the musicians to make sure everything flowed. He really felt like another family member. Thank you Frank!

Above and beyond!

We can’t recommend Frank highly enough! We are from Canada and booked Frank based on online reviews so we weren’t sure what to expect. Frank exceeded all of our expectations. In advance of the ceremony, he was professional, responsive, and organized. He made an effort to get to know us and understand what we had in mind. During the ceremony, he was relaxed, thoughtful, and had a fantastic sense of humour. Thank you for being a wonderful addition to our day, Frank :)
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
