About this vendor

Meaningful Ceremonies & Intentional Marriages for Modern Couples

Every couple deserves a wedding day that feels both deeply significant and entirely their own. If you are working with a professional planning team to design a seamless, high-caliber celebration in Nashville, you already know that the right vendor team makes all the difference.

But beyond the flowers, the music, and the venue, the actual exchange of your vows is the true heart of the day.

I’m Todd Rodarmel, a licensed, ordained minister based in Nashville. I specialize in working with modern, values-driven couples who want a ceremony that feels grounded, authentic, and professionally led. Many of the couples I work with do not consider themselves highly traditional or overly religious, yet they deeply appreciate the presence of a legitimate, experienced pastor to guide them through their vows with warmth, respect, and zero awkwardness.

Your ceremony should never feel like a performance, a transactional script, or a rigid lecture. Instead, we work together to craft a highly personalized, custom ceremony that honors your unique story, respects your beliefs, and serves as a firm foundation for your future.

Because the ceremony is just the beginning, I also offer structured, highly engaging premarital counseling. This is an intentional investment in your partnership, giving you the tools to navigate communication, expectations, and lifelong intimacy long after the last guest goes home.

To ensure every couple receives my undivided focus, preparation, and collaborative coordination with their planning team, I accept a limited number of ceremonies each season.

Grounded Leadership, Seamlessly Executed

I partner with couples and Nashville’s top wedding planners to deliver a stress-free, deeply personal ceremony experience. Rather than offering transactional, templated services, I focus on a collaborative, relationship-first approach.

Ceremony Styles accommodated:

  • Values-Centered & Non-Religious

  • Faith-Informed & Spiritual

  • Interfaith & Single-Religion

  • Traditional and Contemporary

Hire this man!

I cannot stress this enough - Hire Todd Rodarmel to officiate your wedding immediately! You will not regret it for one instant. Knowing what I know now, I would not book my wedding date until I know he’s available or I would change my date if it meant he could officiate my wedding.
Todd Rodarmel is the best officiant that we, my family and guests have ever had the pleasure to meet. We have received almost as many compliments about Todd as we did for our entire wedding. Guests absolutely raved about him and are still raving about him weeks later. He is a singular talent, a class act and an absolute gift. He is worth every single penny for every single second of his time. I would recommend him to every and anybody getting married even if you are not getting married in middle Tennessee. Todd, thank you for providing us with the most beautiful ceremony that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

Best officiant you’ll find!

Rev. Todd Rodarmel is fantastic! Reasonable price, great communication. We lost count of how many guests commented on how good our officiant was! Perfect blend of authenticity and humor - he delivered a spot-on message on the important aspects of love & marriage, while keeping it light & engaging. Could not have chosen better for our destination wedding!

Great officiant

We truly could not have asked for a better officiant for our wedding. Todd made the entire process feel easy and stress free. The ceremony was beautiful, personal, and exactly what we hoped for. One of the things we appreciated most was his steady presence. It was so reassuring to know that if anything were to go wrong, he already had it handled. He made us feel completely taken care of, allowing us to be fully present and enjoy every moment. We are so grateful for him and would recommend him without hesitation to any couple.

10/10 would recommend! :)

Todd was absolutely fantastic to work with! My husband and I contacted him and with very minimal heads up and he helped us out. He spent some time asking us about ourselves and tailored the ceremony accordingly! We loved the way he performed the ceremony and we even had multiple people told us that his style of officiating was the most enjoyable of any wedding they’ve ever been to. He even mailed off our certificate for us, which I appreciated, because I know I would have forgotten to do it. I couldn’t recommend him enough.

Wedding Ceremony

Reverend Rodarmel was an absolute delight to have as our officiant. He provided a wonderful message that our family and friends were able to connect with. As a couple, we really felt he encompassed all of what we believed the standard of marriage is. If you are looking for an officiant for your wedding, we highly recommend Reverend Rodarmel.

A warm, calming presence

My husband and I could not recommend Todd more highly as a pre-marriage counselor and wedding officiant. His messaging about marriage was deeply meaningful and easy for all of our guests to connect with. His humor and peaceful demeanor put my husband and I at ease, and we felt cared for every step of the way. If you are in search of an officiant to make your counseling experience and ceremony special, look no further!
