    Cari is amazing!

    We hired Celia’s company after she officiated my sister’s wedding. When she wasn’t available, we were introduced to Cari who would be our officiant. Cari was the perfect fit for us. She is a lovely write and wrote a beautiful, personalized ceremony for us that so many guests praised. It was heartfelt and really hit all the notes we were looking for. We highly recommend Cari for all types of weddings. She was a doll and extremely professional.

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you so, so much! You had such a stunning day! I hope your friends and family had a wonderful and personal celebration!
    Best wishes for an exciting ***married*** summer!

    The best ceremony!

    Celia was incredible on our big day. We got non stop compliments from our guests all night long about her and our ceremony! She made our ceremony feel and sounds like she had known us for years. It was so special! She was professional and organized through out planning with her and then absolutely hit it out of the park day of. Highly recommend!

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    You are so, so sweet! I loved being able to discover a brand new venue, and everything looked so cozy and fun! I hope you had an amazing celebration with your friends and family (who are just so lovely and clearly adore you)! Best wishes for an fabulous "first married* holiday season and new year! Thank you for everything!

    Phenomenal officiant in the NJ area!!

    My now wife and I had our wedding this Sepetember and Cari was our wedding officiant. I cannot recommend enough how great she was with helping plan our ceremony. Cari made the process extremely smooth and took the time and attention to capture my wife and I's love story. Cari also provided us advice for how to get our license and what we should plan for after the wedding in terms of updating our records. Again, I cannot recommend them enough!

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words! I think the couple's story is really the most fascinating part of the ceremony!

    Best wishes for a terrific season of celebrations and holidays, and thank you again!

    A Beautiful and Personal Ceremony

    Celia made our day so special. She's funny, thoughtful and extremely helpful in all aspects from the writing of the ceremony, vows, and even post/pre wedding paperwork. A huge help to us on all fronts as a couple who were flying by the seat of their pants with our wedding. We could not even imagine our special day without her involvement. Through discussions and a very detailed and fun questionnaire we were able to formulate an extremely personal and one of a kind ceremony that went over so wonderfully with everyone who attended. We highly recommend Celia, she'll add something special to your already special day!

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you so much for taking the time to review our work together! I really appreciate that; the time after a wedding is almost as busy as the time before!
    It was my pleasure to be part of your wedding! Best wishes for a wonderful married future together!!

    Unforgettable Ceremony!

    Celia was absolutely incredible from our first phone call through the end of the wedding day. After speaking with Celia, we knew she was the right choice for our wedding. She made the process as stress free as possible and was super flexible and helpful the entire time. She thought of such a unique touch for our ceremony (popsicles!) which was the perfect touch. Many of our guests asked us if we knew her personally because the ceremony was so personalized and beautiful. Our ceremony was perfect and we couldn't be happier :)

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Hi! You are so sweet! It was so fun to work with you because you gave me so many cool things to write about! (No pun intended, lol) I often tell my couples that the smallest details tell the biggest story!
    Best wishes for a wonderful **married** summer!

    Highly recommend

    Celia was our officiant for our April 2023 wedding at Ballyowen Golf Club in Hamburg, NJ. Not only is she very experienced in the industry, but is extremely personable and got to know us on a personal level to ensure that our ceremony reflected us as individuals and as a couple. Celia provided options for us to ensure we got our marriage license in our quick timeline (while we were living in different states!). Celia gave suggestions for the structure and content of her speech, and was open to any feedback before it was finalized. She also asked us to fill out a questionnaire to ensure that she knew everything she needed to know about us. We received many compliments from our guests about how much they loved Celia’s ceremony speech. We definitely recommend Celia for your wedding!

    Celia is amazing!

    Celia was AMAZING! She made our wedding ceremony so personal and sweet. Couldn't be happier with what she did for us. She took the time to get to know our story and really made the speech special and gave us tips abut vows and even sent me a whole step-by-step list on how to change my last name! Super helpful. We loved her and totally recommend her to anyone.

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you so much! It was so much fun to work with you and always a treat to be at your venue! You friends and family are all so delighted for you, and it was great to be able to meet them.
    Best wishes for a wonderful ***married*** summer!

    A magical day made even better by Celia Milton

    Celia was fantastic from start to finish, she made this whole process easy and enjoyable. Her words were absolutely beautiful and she really took into account our wants for the ceremony. After the service everyone kept coming up to us saying how fantastic she was and they were correct. I would recommend Celia to any bride and groom looking for a gorgeous ceremony on the day of their wedding! She was also so helpful after with the license!!!! 10/10 would recommend.

    Celia is the BEST!!

    When we first talked with Celia, we knew that she'd be the best officiant for us! Chatting with her was effortless, and you sense her genuine excitement for the couples she's working with and has married in the past. She told our story beautifully while keeping it short and sweet, exactly how we wanted. She also helped us with our processional and guided us with our marriage license. Highly recommend hiring Celia!

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    You're so nice! Thank you so much! Your wedding was so warm, so celebratory, just so much fun (with such a well behaved dog who tried to steal the show!) You made such smart choices of music, photography and venue (of course), of COURSE it was going to be great!
    Best wishes for many years of love, laughs and big sloppy dog kisses!

    Thank you so much for choosing me to be part of the fun!

    Amazing ceremony

    Celia was an incredible wedding officiant. My wife and I knew she was the right person for us from the very first phone call, the energy she brings to the table is infectious. She prepared a beautiful ceremony and did a wonderful job telling the story of our love. She is also extremely helpful with the marriage certificate process which is a huge plus!

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    You're just so sweet! Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time at this crazy time of year! Your wedding was so beautiful and you and your vows were both so spot on! I love that you laughed so much during the ceremony!
    Best wishes for a wonderful holiday season and a fabulous "married" new year too!!!

    Truly Exceptional Wedding Officiant-Michael Yelle

    Celia Milton Wedding Officiants (Michael Yelle) were truly exceptional. Michael was truly magnificent and captivating as he meticulously put our relationship into words for our wedding ceremony. His speech was funny, endearing, meaningful and heartfelt. Not only was his speech perfection but Michael guided us with every detail along the marriage license process pre and post wedding. I really cannot say more than you will not be disappointed and Michael will make your wedding day beautiful and memorable. Thank you Michael for everything.

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

We could not have picked a better person to officiate our wedding. Thanks a bunch Celia. Your the best :)

    Amazing Ceremony

    When we reached out to Celia about officiating our wedding, we knew right away she was someone we needed to book! She is energetic, perky and experienced. We got so many compliments on the authenticity of our ceremony and that it was a unique gathering that really encapsulated us as a couple. Celia was responsive and always interested in getting to know what makes us, "us". She was able to tie so many pieces of our life into the perfect ceremony. We had a lot of different (and maybe a little crazy) ideas and Celia was able to incorporate these pieces naturally into our ceremony.

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you so much! Crazy? Nah, lol! It was all great fun!
    Best wishes for a fabulous **married** fall and holiday season!

Celia is truly a sweet lady!! Don’t think twice about closing her as your officiant!!

    Celia is wonderful.

    Celia was WONDERFUL. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, came up with a beautiful script which we were able to review and comment on before the wedding, and delivered the most beautiful ceremony. Our guests are still talking about how wonderful she was, and how it seemed like she knew us forever. 10000% recommended.

    Thank you so much! YOU two were an absolute pleasure too! You seemed to enjoy every minute, which is what everyone hopes for!

    Personable and Professional

    We were having a lot of trouble finding a wedding officiant until we found Ceila. She was very friendly and personable and loved to chat with us during the wedding planning. It was great that she was so amendable to changing and having us review her speech and helping us write our own vows along with printing them in a nice booklet for us. We really appreciate Ceila and was an amazing person to work with and glad we found her for our ceremony.

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you so much! What a sweet, stylish wedding! I really enjoyed working wih you and with your other pros. I'm glad you found me too!!
    Best wishes for a wonderful **married** summer!

    Positive, Lighthearted, Uplifting vibe - easy and fun to work with

    Celia was great –positive, lighthearted, and uplifting vibe. She was fun to talk to and easy to work with. We knew right from the start of our first conversation with Celia that we would choose her to be our officiant. Our ceremony was perfect – serious enough for the weight of a wedding, but also fun. She had great ideas, and had us approve the script ahead of time. She was open to all of our edits as well and wasn’t offended by our changes. Communicating details leading up to the day was a little difficult, there could have been a little more organization, but everything worked out in the end. Celia also filed our marriage certificate for us and sent us instructions on what happens next and how to get it, which was so helpful. After the ceremony all of our guests were asking how we knew her because they were all sure she was an old family friend. It was perfect. We highly recommend Celia!

    The best officiant

    Celia was a pleasure to work with. We had so much fun talking to her and she put together our ceremony and all of our guests thought we've known her for years! Our most reoccurring compliment at the wedding was about her and our ceremony. We felt she really got to know us and our story and reflected it beautifully in the ceremony she wrote and put together. Look no further! The best officiant! She even incorporated jewish ceremony elements in with ease and is great with any cultural elements.

    Celia Milton Celebrant's reply:

    Thank you! You were so chill through the whole process, it was really delightful to collaborate with you. Your families are so nice, and of course there is THEO, the wonderdog! I thought it was pretty hilarious that when I mentioned "another family member" everyone laughed because they knew I was talking about him!
    Best wishes for a wonderul married life together, and thank you again!
