Wedding Officiant in Portland

We were lucky enough to be referred to Anthony. It was a pleasant experience from start to finish. The communication was prompt and very informative. His advice and suggestions were very helpful. They were flexible with scheduling. We wanted a pretty informal marriage signing, and ended up choosing a cafe that was meaningful to us. Anthony and Emily met us there before the scheduled time, and made the process so easy and enjoyable. We loved sitting and talking with them. And when we have a bigger, more public ceremony, we 100% plan to hire them again.

Kiki is an absolute delight! She’s funny, authentic, and instantly puts everyone at ease. You can tell she’s invested serious time and training into becoming a top-tier officiant, but she carries it with such ease and positivity. Couples are in amazing hands with Spark Ceremonies — Kiki truly makes the magic happen.

Theresa officiated our wedding and did a wonderful job. She created a beautiful and fun ceremony that incorporated an extended version of our love story and kept the audience interacting. It gave us such peace of mind to have her there on the big day. Her public speaking skills are perfect and she did mic checks to make sure everything would be just right at the ceremony. At the rehearsal, she helped with lots of little details - where to stand, how to hand off the bouquet, the exchanging of rings - that made everything run so smoothly day-of. After the ceremony, she knew exactly what to do for the marriage license. We were so grateful we had her on our vendor team!

Kenneth was absolutely amazing! Our wedding turned out so perfect and I couldn’t have asked for a better ceremony! He did such a great job and made the moment truly special for my husband and I. His process when it comes to planning the ceremony was definitely a highlight for me. He is extremely attentive and makes the process very smooth. We had a zoom call to meet which made the experience a lot more personal and is what made me book him over other officiants we were looking at. There is a lot of collaboration in writing the script, including questionnaires and editing to make it exactly what you want! Super amazing and it took a lot of stress off of us for sure. The script writing style is so unique and kept my guests entertained, laughing, crying, and helped to truly radiate the love in the room. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough!!! Thank you so much for your amazing work! You truly made the ceremony unforgettable for my husband, me, and our guests. If you are looking for a professional, funny, and friendly officiant, Kenneth is an excellent choice!

The Wedding Officiant is a beacon of kindness, compassion, peace, stillness, and HUMOUR in this do too much time. I have been wanting to attend her Friendship Retreat for over a decade, and am still savoring the experience months later. I can’t wait to attend another one of her retreats!

Rev Mel was very kind in our initial FaceTime and extremely responsive via email any time I had a question as our wedding day approached. There was a traffic incident that caused him to be right on time which meant we started our ceremony about 15 minutes late. In the end it was lucky as had we started on time, a very loud train would have been going by and would have interrupted the ceremony. On a hot day out door wedding coupled with traffic drama Mel still came through for us and delivered the ceremony just as intended and the wedding ended up being just so beautiful and perfect! Things happen and I really appreciated him calling my MOH on the road to keep her informed. He’s very kind and energetic and genuinely seems to love what he does and that is why we chose him. He also brought fun ideas to the table for our ceremony which resulted in a special moment for our moms that neither of us would have thought up on our own. Thanks Mel!!!!

BJ was sooooo wondering. She has such a good heart and is so sweet. She was very responsive and communicative. I definitely recommend going with BJ. Her heart is so genuine and kind.

We were married back in 2021 (I realized we didn’t leave a review!), and Loretta made our ceremony incredibly special! We actually hired another officiant at first, but after he canceled and gave our appointment to a friend of his (who was a bit rude over emails), we went looking for someone else. We came across Loretta, and she seemed like the perfect fit. She asked us to pick out one of her scripts from her website, and we picked one that we really liked. The officiant we had before used a basic script that he didn’t write himself, and we had to edit it a lot to fit our (lack of) spiritual beliefs. Loretta’s was perfect from the get-go. Fast forward to our wedding day, Loretta was incredibly sweet, thoughtful and all around wonderful. The script that we had already read sounded so incredibly different coming from Loretta’s mouth. It was beautiful spoken, we both teared up as we listened to her words and looked in each others eyes. It was a transcendent experience. To make a long story short, you will absolutely not be disappointed in Loretta. It was such an experience that we often bring it up, even 2 years later! Thank you so much Loretta, you made our ceremony so special!

Michael was very kind & extremely helpful in helping us to personalize our ceremony for us. He was very professional & quick to respond to us. He made sure that our day was very special. I highly recommend him!
