    Couldn't have been happier! Owen is the best!

    We got married in New Hampshire, October 2023, and Owen made the planning process a breeze. Owen met with us multiple times leading up to the wedding to make sure that he fully understood our vision for our big day. He shared a document with all of the information he needed to plan the ceremony, which was also helpful for us because there were questions we hadn't even thought to ask! Day of, Owen was a godsend. I managed to lose my vows while getting ready, and Owen saved the day by printing me a new copy. We also decided to gamble with mother nature and host our ceremony outside, despite the high chance of rain, because we had had our hearts set on that location for years. Owen not only encouraged our decision because he knew how important it was to us, but helped to lighten the mood during the ceremony after we lost our gamble and it started pouring the second the ceremony started. He was a good sport, despite getting soaked, and was even able to project his voice enough that everyone could hear him without a microphone. Owen was an amazing officiant, and I cannot express enough how grateful we were for him. I highly encourage that all couples hire Owen for their big day. He's inclusive, positive, friendly, organized, and fun to work with! Thank you Owen!!

    Thank you for the kind words Lauren. It was a pleasure assisting both of you across the event, and make it the best rainy day ever. I wish both of you the happiest future together!

    Excellent Wedding Ceremony

    Owen did a phenomenal job with our wedding ceremony! He is very kind, professional, and made sure that our wedding day went according to plan. Owen met with us ahead of time to discuss what we wanted our ceremony to look like, and typed up a copy of the ceremony to read/edit shortly after. Owen made us feel very comfortable, and he did an excellent job with our wedding ceremony. I definitely recommend having Owen as your officiant!

    Charming Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you Tessa and it was my pleasure working with you. Best wishes to the both of you for a fruitful future!

Loved working with him

    Professional! Incredible! Caring!

    If it wasn’t for Charming Ceremonies, I don’t think my wedding would have gone so beautifully. Helped everyone out and checked in on both me and my bow husband. We had constant meetings to make sure everything was right. He wants your day how you see it! And he accommodates for everything. He’s a very Charming guy who made sure my husband and I were as comfortable as possible. So amazing!

    Charming Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you both. I really enjoyed working with the two of you to make it the best day, and you both looked great. Cheers to many joyous years ahead!

    Awesome and professional

    Working with Owen from charming ceremonies and his daughter (assistant) was awesome! They nailed every detail and they were very considerate and passionate. The attention to detail with the things I asked for was amazing and they made sure it happened even if it was forgotten they pulled it off seamlessly. I highly recommend his professionalism and business!

    Amazing!!!

    Owen is such an amazing person and made our wedding day dirt all together. He included everything we asked for and made tears come to our eye one way or another through what he wrote. We asked for non traditional and more humor to lighten and serious mood and he did chefs kiss perfect. I would recommend him to any one

    Charming Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you both for the kind words and the honor of performing your ceremony. I wish you both the best in many years to come!

    Owen was very accommodating. When my wife and I switched up what we wanted multiple times he went with the flow and was very easy to work with. We can’t recommend Owen enough!

    Great Overall Experience

    Owen did a fantastic job answering any questions we had, as well as preparing us for things even we didn't think of. He was super professional and did a wonderful job officiating our wedding. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

    Owen made our day so special and memorable!!!

    Owen played such an integral role in making sure our wedding went smooth and exactly as we visioned! We started the planning process with him early by choice due to covid and he was super proactive and had regular check ins with us (communication was on point!). Very attentive and detail oriented and constantly made sure we had all of our questions answered and even brought things to our attention we were not aware of. What stood out most was the day of wedding: while I was sweaty and nervous, Owen was calm cool and collected, making sure all plans were in motion. Professional and genuinely cares! I would encourage everyone to work with Owen as you will be extremely happy with your decision. Owen, you the man!

    Charming Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you so much for the kind words Matt and it was a pleasure officiating your and Alexis's ceremony. You did great, and I'm glad I contribute to your special day. Cheers to both of you for the many years ahead!

    Great from start to finish

    Owen was so responsive and thoughtful the whole time. He really shined the day of the wedding. He was so caring and attentive to our needs. Even bringing us water and appetizers during pictures. I would absolutely recommend Owen for your special day. 10 out of 10.

    Charming Ceremonies's reply:

    Alexis and Matthew thank you so much for choosing me as your officiant and sharing these kind words. It was great spending so much time getting to know both of you. Your wedding was a great day and you both were stunning. Many thanks and best wishes to you!

    Conscientious Conklin

    Owen was incredibly conscious of our wedding vision, ensuring nothing was left to chance. We were so impressed with his professionalism and detail-oriented manner. He also has a very calming demeanor; perfect for the chaos of a wedding day. We would highly recommend Owen. We were in desperate need of a last-minute chaplain and ended up being so grateful that it was Owen we discovered...definitely a lucky find :).

    Emily thank you for the kind words. It was my honor to over see your and Jeffrey's ceremony. You both looked amazing. I wish you both the best in everything in the future.

    Super fun officiant!

    We love Owen! When we got engaged he was our first choice to ask to marry us. He was super flexible with meeting times and worked with us on the wedding script. The day of he helped out any way he was asked which was super appreciated. He made everything sooo fun and easy... and joined in for a sword fight! Would highly recommend having Owen marry you!

    Charming Ceremonies's reply:

    Intimate wedding at boldt castle

    Owen was an amazing officiant! He made our day so special and we will never forget it!

We highly recommend using Charming ceremonies for your wedding, you will not regret it!

    Our day wouldn’t be complete without him!

    Owen was nothing short of amazing. Prior to the event, he was respectful, accommodating, professional, funny, and kind. He really took the chance to get to know us to create the perfect “script” for our ceremony. The day of, Owen showed up with a positive attitude and a working hat on. We didn’t just get the kind officiant, we got another friend! He not only made sure everything went smoothly, he catered to our other needs such as food and water and keeping our valuables safe. He also ensured we had alone time and shooed other guests away (in a very kind way). There was even an oopsie during the ceremony (no fault of his) and afterwards he cheered us up and helped us through it! He didn’t make just the bride and groom his clients, but every attendant as well. Every guest complimented how amazing and attentive he was! I truly believe our day wouldn’t have been the same without him. I would recommend Owen/ Charming ceremonies a MILLION times! You will not regret your amazing decision. Thank you for everything you did Owen!

    Charming Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you for the kind words Kayla, and for you and Tyler choosing me as your officiant. It was an honor presiding over your ceremony and I'm glad to hear it was what the two of you were looking for. I wish you both the best going forward, and do not hesitate to reach out to me if you need anything.

    Owen Was The Best!!

    From start to finish, we wouldn't change a thing/couldn't have asked for a better experience! Owen was truly top notch and a class act.

    My Husband and I had our original plans for an officiant fall through about two months before our wedding. We completely scrambled to find an officiant that would be available on short notice and on a holiday weekend. After reaching out and securing Owen as our officiant, he was nothing but responsive and attentive to creating the ceremony we had hoped for. He worked with us as we planned our wedding out of state and was extremely flexible amidst our crazy schedule. On the day of, he continually checked in with us and made sure we didn't have to worry about a thing! Our ceremony was beautifully done and authentic to us - our families, along with us, were so pleased! We wouldn't have changed a thing!

    Thank you Owen!

    Charming Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you Alyana,
    It was a pleasure to hold the ceremony for you and Tommy, and I'm glad to hear you enjoyed everything. It was a wonderful day, you looked stunning, and everyone was a pleasure to work with. I wish you both the best as you start your new adventure.

    Owen Conklin and Charming Ceremonies

    Amazing officiant! So glad we picked him! He was easy to talk to, reliable, utilized multiple methods of communication ( email, text, phone calls, zoom meetings) to ensure we had all important information in a timely manner. Gave great advice to help allow ease our pre-wedding fears. He was patient with us because we didn't really know what to expect or what to do on our big day! Very relatable and had great suggestions to help make our big day the best it could be, both before and during the wedding.

    Charming Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you for including me on your special day. It was a pleasure working with you both! I wish you well in the future.
