We're so lucky we found One Heart Ceremonies and Norma. Before hiring Norma, we had toyed with the idea of having a friend or loved on officiate, but we also wanted someone professional, someone who knew what they were doing.
With Norma, we got both! Because she was deeply interested in getting to know us as a couple and spent the time to do so, our ceremony felt very personal. It was tailor-made to fit us as a couple and our story.
Throughout the planning process, Norma was communicative, professional, friendly, and helpful. She put us at ease leading up to and throughout our ceremony. There were external factors that stressed us out minutes before our ceremony, and Norma led us in some exercises to calm our nerves! We've had countless guests tell us how wonderful she was and how beautiful our ceremony was.
I highly recommend One Heart Ceremonies for a highly personalized wedding ceremony!

Norma is a pro!
Where do I even start?
Norma Moutal officiated our wedding two weeks ago and I swear my husband and I still bring her up almost every day. The ceremony was just… perfect.
From the very first email she sent, you could feel how warm and kind she is. She actually wanted to know us—our whole story, the silly stuff, the inside jokes—and then somehow turned all of that into a ceremony that felt so completely “us.” So many guests came up afterward asking, “Wait, is Norma a family friend?” Nope, she’s just that good (and that sweet).
The day of the wedding she showed up with the biggest smile and this calm, happy energy that instantly put me at ease. Her voice is honestly the most soothing thing, and the her caring yet assertive way made us feel safe during the ceremony.
Norma didn’t just read some script and call it a day. She made our ceremony the most beautiful, love-filled moment we’ll remember forever. If you get the chance to have her officiate your wedding, do it. She’s the real deal—the kindest person who treats your day like it’s the most important one in the world. We love her so much. Thank you, Norma, for everything.
Love,
Bonnie & Keith

Great Experience!
From the moment we connected with Norma at One Heart, we knew that she was the perfect fit for our ceremony. As an inter-racial, inter-religious couple, we knew that our ceremony would have to be unique, and Norma was up for the challenge. She beautifully integrated both of our cultures (Chinese and Jewish), telling the story of our love in a meaningful way. She was easy to work with, and helped create a ceremony that we nor our guests will ever forget. We're so grateful that she took the time to get to know us personally, and led a ceremony that suited our vision. We couldn't recommend her and One Heart more highly!
Are you interested?

Norma is kind and dedicated to her work!
Norma was such a joy to work with! I found her in my knot research and after our first meeting I knew she was the perfect fit. She took the time to really get to know my husband and I before the big day. Her readings during the vow exchange were so touching and something I will always remember. My friends and family were raving about Norma and how lovely she was afterwards. Her happiness and love for love is so strong it makes you at ease on the big day. I highly recommend as an officiant for wedding ceremonies or big life moments!

My husband and I are so glad we chose Mark to be our officiant! He was extremely professional throughout, answered all of our questions, and was organized on our wedding day. He also is a very genuine person and made us feel so comfortable. Mark did such a beautiful job during our ceremony as well and we couldn't be happier! Absolutely recommend him!!!

Incredible Ceremony
My husband and I were recently married by Norma and One Heart Personalized Ceremonies. From the very first meeting through the ceremony, Norma was incredible. Five minutes into our first call with her, we knew she was the right officiant for us. She calmed our nerves, let us know what to expect and was communicative during the whole process. She took the time to get to know us as a couple and the beautiful ceremony she delivered reflected that. My husband and I have been together for almost 15 years, so it wasn’t easy to try and capture all that history in one ceremony, but Norma was able to do it flawlessly. Many of our family and friends pulled us aside afterwards and told us how moving the ceremony was for them as well. Norma also helped us to create a time capsule box with letters from family members and mementos from throughout our relationship that we plan to open on our 15-year wedding anniversary. We cannot recommend Norma enough, she’s warm, thoughtful and passionate about what she does. Thank you for everything, Norma!

Dream ceremony!
Norma did an amazing job with our ceremony. From the moment we first met with her, we knew she would be a great fit for our wedding and couldn't be happier with the results! Our ceremony was incredibly personalized and touching — many people told us they shed a tear during it. We can't recommend Norma and One Heart Personalized Ceremonies enough!

Wedding Officiant
We hired Norma to do our ceremony in July, and we are so happy we did. We wanted a ceremony that felt really warm and personal, and Norma worked with us to create just that. We had at least 2 zoom calls to discuss the ceremony, and she was really open to any changes we wanted to make. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant!

My wife and I were recently married by Norma and One Heart Personalized Ceremonies. To say we were thrilled with the process, the support, and the execution of the ceremony is an understatement.

We could not have hoped for a better wedding service. Mark spent a lot of time getting to know my wife and I before our wedding and it showed on our special day. Mark officiated our wedding with professionalism, sincerity, and even a little humor which made it even more special. My wife and I would fully recommend Mark to anyone for their wedding.

Best Ceremony ever!
We hired One Heart Personalized Ceremonies because they have a great reputation, and we were extremely happy with the work they did!
Mark walked us through the process months before our wedding and we were 100% prepared.
He gave us insight that we would have never thought about and our wedding was better for it!
Our family and friends were so impressed with the ceremony, and we could not be happier!
Thank you, Mark!

The most meaningful wedding ceremony!!
My now-husband and I worked with Norma to create our wedding ceremony, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. From our first meeting with Norma, we felt completely comfortable with her and could see how passionate she is about her work. She asked thoughtful questions and made a genuine effort to get to know us in order to build a personal, meaningful ceremony. She also provided us with helpful guidance to write our own vows. And Norma blew us and our guests’ away at our wedding!! A number of our guests told us that Norma was the best wedding officiant they had ever seen and commented on how nice a connection we seemed to have with her. The ceremony was the perfect length, and it was both light-hearted and emotional. It was so special, and we’ll treasure the memories forever. We truly could go on and on about our wonderful experience working with Norma!! You will not regret hiring her to officiate your wedding.

The perfect officiant
We can safely say that without Mark, our wedding really wouldn't have gone as well as we had hoped for. He was like a stable pillar admits the chaos and thanks to his professionalism, kindness, and patience it all came together during the ceremony and we could not have been any happier. He truly took a lot of stress off our hands during the preparation by clearing giving us timelines and guidance so that he can do what he is good at which is of course providing the perfect ceremony! We loved the words he spoke to us and our guests as he really tried to understand who we are as a couple. If you are in need of an officiant, Mark is your man!

Must have officiant!
Mark officiated our wedding a few weeks ago. He made our ceremony beyond special and we will always remember it because of the effort he put into it. He took the time to get to know us before hand and our ceremony reflected that. He brought light, humor, and happiness to the day and our day would not have been the same without his wonderful officiation! Would highly, highly recommend to any couple who is currently looking :)

Beautiful & Highly Personalized Ceremony!
Norma at One Heart was a key part of our making our wedding day truly special! She really took the time to get to know my husband and I to ensure our ceremony really reflected our love story. My husband and I have been together for 11+ years so writing a ceremony that captured all of our story was not an easy one. Ahead of the big day, we meet with Norma over Zoom to formally meet one another and talk about some of the key things we did and did not want in our ceremony. Neither my husband and I are religious, so we didn’t want any religious references in the ceremony and Norma did a great job accommodating that. The questionnaire she had us both separately fill out was very detailed and helped Norma get familiar with us individually but as a couple as well. A few weeks before the wedding, we met again over Zoom so Norma could share pieces and themes of the ceremony with us which we loved.
On the big day, her words were deeply moving and she did such a great job telling our story. It was as if she knew us for years! She also helped file our marriage certificate with the state, which was super helpful by taking that off our plate. I would definitely recommend using Norma at One Heart for a genuinely customized and heartfelt wedding ceremony!

Dear Norma,
Words can’t begin to describe how thankful we are to you for giving us the most incredible ceremony. It was everything we could have imagined and more. We received so many compliments from all our guests on how beautiful it was and how it was so amazing that our ceremony was personalized just for us. You can truly see how much joy you get out of what you do and we are so glad we chose you.

Beautiful Ceremony
Mark officiated our wedding and did such a wonderful job. We had a few calls leading up to the wedding where we told him the background of our relationship and discussed what we were looking for in our wedding ceremony. He truly listened to everything we said we were looking for on our wedding day and exceeded our expectations the day of. He brought in religious elements we wanted to incorporate and suggested a few readings that we instantly connected with. Our family and friends thought he did a great job and are still talking about our ceremony months later. We highly recommend Mark to anyone getting married.

A Blessing!
Norma was incredible to work with! Our first meeting was via video call, but we connected with her immediately. She interpreted our sometimes unclear wishes and created the perfect ceremony. When a family illness spurred us to plan an immediate micro wedding two months early, she created a second ceremony for us and made the time to be there to marry us. Her kindness and skill gave us two beautiful ceremonies and we will be forever grateful to have found her.

Mark recently officiated my wedding on 10/28/22 in Peekskill, NY and did an amazing job. We received so many compliments on the ceremony and how beautiful it was. Mark was very thorough in his questions for us and was able to create a beautiful and personalized ceremony. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for an officiant for their wedding ceremony.

Speak to Norma and you will hire her for your wedding
I have known Norma for about 30 years, even before she became ordained and started officiating. Therefore it was an easy decision to ask her to be the officiant at our son's wedding because we knew that she would put the time in to meet with him and his bride, discuss their preferences for the ceremony, and develop a presentation that was personalized to them. We knew her professionalism and dedication to making sure that this important event was memorable to them and their guests. For those of you reading this review, you do not know Norma, and so I can assure you that if you speak with her and consider her as an officiant at your wedding, you will immediately understand that she is a person who sincerely wants to make your wedding a success, and will work with you to make that happen.

above and beyond - twice!
“That was the best wedding ceremony I have ever heard!” After our long-delayed wedding in April of 2022, we heard the above from so many family and friends. And we’re both in our mid-40s, so it’s not like our guests haven’t all been to dozens of weddings. But Norma was just THAT good.
Our journey with Norma started three years ago, when we became engaged in 2019. Norma met with us and designed a beautiful ceremony … which didn’t get to happen, because it was scheduled for April of 2020. Instead, the pandemic forced us to cancel our wedding. When we told Norma, she offered to marry us right away in a socially distanced outdoor ceremony. She immediately revised the ceremony she had written for us, and the next day she gave us a beautiful wedding with only two witnesses instead of the 200 we had originally planned. Norma brought everything we needed and gave us a joyful day even as the world seemed to be falling to pieces all around us.
Two years later, we finally felt that it was safe enough to have the wedding we originally planned, and we knew we had to have Norma on board. And she DELIVERED THE GOODS! She rewrote our nuptials yet again, and delivered a ceremony full of love and good feelings and humor. It was so heartfelt and wonderful. Norma’s words and thoughts and delivery made sure there wasn’t a dry eye in the house.
Both of our wedding days were among the very best days of our lives, and Norma Moutal helped make it so. We can never thank her enough.

Multiple life cycle events -with one very big heart
Love – it really is the only thing that matters and with Norma it comes in spades.
We met Norma through my son and daughter in law who hired Norma for their wedding and for us it was love at first sight. Norma offered a completely personal, warm and loving ceremony that was a truly a highlight of our son and daughter in laws wedding.
As contemporaries, we connected with Norma and her husband as personal friends and have had the joy and privilege of spending time with the two of them.
Since then, Norma truly has become part of our family and has conducted baby naming for both of our grandchildren and has married our younger son and his wife. Each time she joined us as an efficient, her words connected with us on so many levels.
But the most meaningful was a memorial service she conducted this past November. Finally able to come together as family and in person, Norma spent the time to learn about our mom and the service she performed was so heartfelt and beautiful. All our guests commented on how beautiful the service was and how each of them was touched by Norma’s words.
We look forward not only to spending time with Norma as friends but celebrating and sharing more family lifecycle events with Norma in the future.

Our Forever Memory
Mark gave us a priceless wedding gift; the most perfect ceremony. To rewind, we knew just moments into our first conversation with Mark that he and One Heart Personalized Ceremonies were the perfect complement to our wedding story. We felt like he somehow already knew us.
We felt at ease with Mark, at a time when so much was unknown, including if we were even going to have our NYC wedding due to Covid and the ever-changing guidelines and restrictions. Mark gave us guidance where we needed, as well as freedom to help him curate a ceremony that embodied a spirit of warmth and intimacy, with big laughs and an overall celebration of two lives becoming one. Every step of planning with Mark was thoughtful, organized and truly enjoyable. He will honor you and your wedding day by creating a ceremony that is truly unique to your love, your union and your future. We cannot recommend him and One Personalized Heart Ceremonies enough-they are simply the best. We now have our forever memory.

Detailed and Personal Process!
Working with One Heart Personalized Ceremonies was a fantastic decision for our wedding. They came recommended by our venue, and we had such a great experience working with Mark and Debra. They were so organized and detail oriented, and we spoke several times before the wedding so they really understood us as a couple and to get all the details needed for the day-of. The wedding day was perfect and our ceremony could not have been better, it was exactly what we were hoping for!

Wedding 10/30/21 at Millbrook Winery
Norma was a fabulous officiant! Our ceremony felt so personalized and truly spoke to who we are as a couple. She had great ideas for how to add special touches to our ceremony including a time capsule box and a flower ceremony to honor our loved ones. We had a few last minute changes that we wanted to make and Norma was very accommodating. She was responsive and available by phone and email. We would absolutely work with her again!

Incredible Ceremony
Norma took a considerable amount of time to get to know me, my husband and our family.. which was reflected in her incredible and very personal sermon. Our guest are still expressing how touched they were by the ceremony and how personal and intimate Norma's sermon was. We could not be more pleased with her special way of conveying our love story and observations of our family, making our ceremony truly one of a kind.

Norma made it a day to remember
Norma played a critical part in making our wedding a very special day we will remember forever. She asked us questions, made suggestions and in the end put together a ceremony that meant so much to us and all of our family and friends. We highly recommend!

Great experience!
We had our wedding in October 2021 and used One Heart Ceremonies to officiate and we could not have made a better choice! Norma responded to our inquiry right away and over the few months we worked with her really developed a personalized ceremony that exceeded our expectations. She met with us several times and got to know us so that she could incorporate those details into what she said that evening. One of the things that impressed us the most was her ability to take the information we provided her about us and really create a story that truly exhibited not only how we feel but what we really wanted to communicate to our family and friends in attendance. In addition to this Norma also went out of her way to give us suggestions about how we could personalize the ceremony and take it to the next level. We highly recommend One Heart and cannot stress enough how pleased we were with our ceremony!

Rev. Norma Moutal performed the most magnificent wedding ceremony for my husband and me on July 24, 2021
My husband and I were blown away by our wedding ceremony, which was performed by Rev. Norma Moutal. Everyone at the wedding, even the men, commented on how meaningful and personal the ceremony was. It was so evident that Rev. Norma had spent many hours preparing for our event. The vows that she wrote brought tears to my eyes. She also attended the rehearsal and took charge, turning chaos into a well organized, meaningful ceremony. We felt so blessed to have had her marry us.

Perfect experience
My husband and I worked with Norma for our wedding and could not have asked for a better experience! From the very beginning (before COVID), Norma was very invested in getting to know all about us and what we wanted for our special day. She was extremely professional, kind and put a great deal of thought and love into our ceremony. When we found out we had to postpone our wedding due to COVID, she was extremely diligent in responding to us when we were frantically trying to make sure everyone we wanted to be apart of our big day could still commit to our new date. She was willing to do whatever necessary to still be able to work with us, which we were so happy about!
Norma could not have written a better, more personalized ceremony for us. She included everything we asked for and more, really making it all about us. Our ceremony, vows and everything Norma included for us was absolutely perfect. We could not recommend her enough!!

The Perfect Ceremony
Norma was recommended to us by our wedding planner and we are so grateful for that! Norma is an amazing officiant and what she said at our wedding was so moving! She took the time to really get to know us via Zoom and had us fill out questionnaires so she could write up the perfect ceremony. Our ceremony was completely tailored to us and that made it most special! We're so happy we hired her and would definitely recommend her to anyone planning a wedding. Thank you Norma!

Mark was Amazing
Mark was extremely professional, communicative, and helpful. He put a lot of thought into his script to make sure it was relevant for us rather than just a rote reading. You can tell he cares a lot about his work and wants couples to have a great experience on their wedding day, which we did!

Mark was an excellent officiant for our wedding. We were super happy with how everything turned out. He did a fantastic job. He is super easy to work with, is a wonderful person with an easy going vibe and aura that made us feel very comfortable and at ease. He is a true professional, and knows what he is doing. He listens and will work with you to give you the special type of ceremony you are looking for. We strongly recommend Mark!

Mark was truly amazing
My husband and I contacted Mark pre Covid for our May 2021 wedding. From the start Mark was so responsive and attentive to us. Unfortunately due to Covid we never got to meet Mark in person but we did get to have many FaceTime meetings leading up to our wedding day. We truly felt like Mark got to know us and was able to capture our love for each other. Our ceremony truly was better than we could have even imagined. We are still getting compliments on Mark’s ceremony. We cannot thank you enough for the amazing job you did and we are truly grateful to have met you.

Highly recommend Mark!
I thought that finding and selecting an Officiant for our wedding would be difficult, since neither myself nor husband actively practice any faith. So, I turned to Google to find if there were people who dedicate their lives to officiating wedding ceremonies. Lucky for me I did not have to research long, One Heart Personalized Ceremonies was one of the first listed in the results and after reading through the website and reviews I was impressed.
Mark responded within 48 hours to my Contact Us request, submitted through the website to set up a brief Facetime call. Being able to see Mark during this first meet-and-greet was important to me and I was able to see his facial expressions that he truly did dedicate his work to love and matrimony. He clearly outlined the process for getting-to-know us as newlyweds so that he could curate a completely custom ceremony. I was even more impressed with the professionalism and passion Mark had for this industry. At this point I knew I didn’t have to look any farther for an Officiant. The months leading up to the wedding, Mark was responsive and helpful with guidance around obtaining our marriage license as well.
As Officiant at our wedding, Mark started our amazing day with a ceremony he carefully prepared that was completely tailored to us and our style. He set the tone for our celebration with a joyful and meaningful welcome for my husband and I, our families, and friends. Mark shared the biography of our relationship with insight and humor. He helped us relax while we focused on a moment that would become central in our lives. He closed with warm, personal advice and wishes for a happy married life ahead. We strongly recommend Mark without any reservation.

Mark was fantastic throughout the entire process of developing our dream ceremony. He was personable, knowledgeable, and extremely professional. His personal touches to our ceremony made us both realize the dedication to his craft and his wonderful ability to tell a love story. We had so many people approach us after the ceremony to tell us what a beautiful job Mark did. We would recommend Mark to all our friends and family in a heartbeat!

This review is surprisingly challenging to write because there are so many things we want to say! Mark created the perfect wedding ceremony, went above and beyond in helping us write our vows, was incredibly easy to work with, and accommodating when we had to reschedule our wedding due to covid. We are so thankful Mark was a part of our day and will be happily recommending him to our friends and family!

Wonderful Officiant
Mark was an amazing officiant! He was detail oriented, understanding, knowledgeable, patient, and kind. He was so considerate when it came to the different elements of our multi faith, multi cultural ceremony. He coached us through the processes of obtaining a marriage license, to writing our own vows, to ceremony logistics. I couldn't have asked for anyone better. Thanks again, Mark!

One Heart Personalized Ceremonies is the best!
Hiring Mark as our wedding officiant was one of the best decisions we made in our planning, and it was a joy to see firsthand why One Heart Personalized Ceremonies has earned so many outstanding reviews online. From our first consultation to the day of our ceremony, Mark was as professional as he was personable, and he made every effort to create a customized ceremony that truly reflected our unique and personal stories. His decades of experience helped us smoothly navigate the somewhat dizzying process of wedding planning, and he helped clarify our thinking by bringing up aspects of the ceremony we hadn’t considered before. When preparing for his role Mark interviewed us in-depth with detailed questions about our relationship along with the minute-by-minute logistics of the ceremony itself. It all came together beautifully in a presentation that ran smoothly and was filled with funny and memorable anecdotes. As our officiant Mark did an outstanding job of balancing the solemnity of the occasion with his natural warmth, charm, and lightheartedness. The love he has for his job and his clients shined through in everything he did, and all of our guests commented on how terrific he was. Overall we could not have been more delighted with Mark and his professionalism and we give One Heart Personalized Ceremonies our highest recommendation to others.

Mark pieced together a fantastic ceremony for our wedding, it was definitely a highlight of the night! From the beginning to the end, Mark was extremely communicative, profressional, thorough, and intuitive. Mark is also a genuinely kind person, and although we had just met, he was able to capture our story perfectly. Apparnetly, there was not a single dry eye in the room ;). Highly recommend!

Our Mini Filipino Pandemic Wedding
My husband and I are very lucky to have Norma officiate our wedding. Our ceremony was part of the many that took place during the pandemic and Norma made sure we’d have a very memorable one despite and in-spite of it . I love how detailed and personalized it was to our love story that it felt like Norma has known us since day one. She made sure to include Filipino traditions and to include our love for our families. Our vows cannot be more accurate to how we envision our life as a married couple. With just a month of preparation and solely based on emails, calls, and texts, Norma was part of God’s gift to us to have a very meaningful celebration. I couldnt have had a better person to officiate our wedding. Thank you, Norma and One Heart Personalized Ceremonies! 🤍

Supportive, Personal Experience!
We were lucky to find Mark from One Heart Ceremonies for our 2020 wedding. We loved that Mark took the time to meet with us a few months before the big day, to learn about us and our relationship. It felt so great that he listened to all of our interests and the way we are as a couple, and then he took that and tailored a beautiful ceremony for us. He was very understanding of the specific things we wanted to include, and he wove everything together beautifully. He even gave suggestions for things to include that we had not thought of! Mark was a true support in navigating the timeline leading up to the big day. At every point of the process we felt we were in good hands. Truly professional. Can't say enough good things!

Best of the best
Norma recently officiated our wedding. She's also officiated for my brother in law and then naming of their two children. Not only is Norma the kindest person I've ever met, she's professional, personal, and really took the time to get to know us as a couple. We received so many compliments on her ceremony. Her ceremony was a perfect mix of the religion, culture, family, and love - just like we wanted. She truly listened to what we wanted and delivered a very meaningful and personal ceremony that we'll cherish forever.

Outstanding officiant and reverend
We had Mark to officiate our wedding. He was amazing. He introduced himself to guests and parents. He made everyone feel at ease. He corresponded with us throughout the whole process to make sure he got to know both of us. He ensured that everything ran smoothly and he knew our vision for the ceremony. He was able to execute the ceremony flawlessly. His personality draws everyone in. He was such a joy to work with. He did an amazing job. If you're searching for an officiant or a reverend he is perfect for the role. Thank you so much Mark for all the preparations you took and making our day memorable!

So thankful we found Mark!
My husband and I decided to get married during the pandemic and planned our wedding in less than a month! We are so thankful we had Mark's guidance throughout the process, from how to get a marriage license to officiating on our special day. We especially appreciated his patience and the time he took to answer our many questions (over the phone and through video conference) and to give us feedback on our personalized vows. Even in the short time frame of a month, it felt as if Mark really got to know my husband and myself and his friendliness and caring continued even after our wedding when he reached out to us on holidays to wish us well. Mark was always professional and personable and was accommodating to our last minute changes due to weather and family preferences on the day of our wedding. We couldn't have been happier with our choice of Mark to officiate our wedding.

Wonderful!
Mark and One Heart Personalized Ceremonies did an amazing job! We got married in Central Park with a simple ceremony including close friends and family. We thought of asking a friend to do the ceremony but are glad in the end we went with someone with experience. Mark spent time with us before listening and getting to know us over video chat. He made our magical moment all the better. We will treasure our wedding ceremony the rest of our lives and are grateful to have had Mark’s help making it wonderful.

Married during Covid
One Heart was nothing short of amazing. Mark was super helpful and always very professional and personal with me and my wife during these very tough times. He helped us the whole way through video calls and was so welcoming and charming on the day of our wedding. He made our wedding feel so special and personal to us which made the whole experience that much more memorable. Me and my wife couldn't have chosen a better revorand and Mark was like part of the family. Thank You to One Heart Ceremonies for making our day nothing short of special during the pandemic.

Just absolute perfection on the most important part of our big day
Mark was amazing. He really curated a special ceremony for us, that I had no idea a professional could offer. He spoke to us, got to know us, and just put the work in to make the day wonderful. He was so open and easy to work with. We had such an insane time re-planning our wedding, and had to move venues and find someone new due to the pandemic; we were going to go with a friend or family member, but I am just so happy we found Mark. Not only do I recommend a professional to do ceremonies if a couple thinks they want a friend to marry them, I just highly recommend Mark. He is professional, thoughtful, open, responsive, approachable and really helped us put the most important part of the day together so perfectly. He had guidance and professionalism we both would not have had from a friend or family member. I can't speak highly enough with how happy we were with choosing Mark.

Mark officiated our wedding this past Fall and was wonderful from the start. He took the time to get to know us through zoom and FaceTime since we were unable to meet in person leading up to our big day. He was thoughtful in helping us put together a personal ceremony and was a reassuring presence while we navigated planning a wedding during Covid. We would highly recommend One Heart Personalized Ceremonies to anyone planning a wedding in the tri-state area.

Officiant extraordinaire
We used Mark Giller of One Heart Personalized Ceremonies for our wedding on September 5, 2020. We could not have asked for a better officiant. Mark was a consummate professional and wowed us with his personalized speech. Everyone in attendance thoroughly enjoyed the ceremony. Mark made the ceremony process very smooth and gave us one less thing to worry about as we planned and executed a wedding in the middle of a pandemic.

Mark Giller: One Heart Ceremonies
I can’t say enough amazing things about the experience we had working with Mark as our wedding officiant. Planning a wedding in the midst of a pandemic was a bit stressful (to say the least) but Mark helped to make this time such a joyous, experience and kept us calm throughout. Mark payed close attention to every detail we asked, and prepared our ceremony with such a heartfelt, genuine warmth, that it felt like he knew us for years. If you are searching for a wedding officiant look no further, Mark was absolutely incredible and I would recommend him to anyone searching for a once in a lifetime, memorable, magical wedding ceremony.

I have, and will continue to recommend One Heart to everyone.
We we be forever grateful,

You won’t go wrong!
Norma was honestly one of the best parts of our wedding. She was extremely responsive from the beginning answered all of our questions and really took the time to get to know me and my husband. Everyone complemented her the day of the wedding and spoke about how wonderful she was. You won’t go wrong with having her officiate your wedding, she’s a true gem and great person.

Norma married my now husband & I in early November, and it was the most beautiful, personalized ceremony we could've imagined! Norma was so wonderful and easy to work with, we loved her the second we met her. She asked really great questions and got to know us well - we could easily hear our voices come through in the ceremony. She helped make the ceremony so incredibly special, unique and memorable! We couldn't be happier with how our wedding turned out - we loved working with Norma!!

Wonderfully written ceremony
We loved working with Norma for our Micro Wedding! She was so sweet and understanding when we had to move everything around. She prepared an excellent ceremony that was personalized to our personalities. I highly recommend her services.

personalized and professional
Mark officiated our wedding ceremony in August of 2019. He was so lovely to work with leading up to the wedding and on the day of. He was super informative and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. He has a great presence and gave us wonderful recommendations for our readings. We connected via FaceTime before the wedding, and we could tell that he truly tried to get to know us so he could personalize our ceremony. Mark created some special moments for my husband and me during the ceremony and he worked with our videographer so that the ceremony could be filed. We are so grateful that he could be an integral part of our wedding day, and we will forever cherish the memories we made!

An absolute pleasure to work with Mark
Mark was an absolute pleasure and delight to work with. After our first phone conversation with him we knew that we wanted him to perform our ceremony. He was kind, thoughtful, personable, professional, and truly invested in getting to know us both as individuals and as a couple. He took the time to get to know us and our story and when we spoke it was as if we were speaking to an old friend. He also was able to offer up wonderful suggestions and ideas to make our ceremony personalized and really tailored the whole thing around what we wanted, who we are, and what was important to us. In addition, he was super flexible with us when our original plans to be married at the beginning of May were derailed by Covid and we had to adjust our location, date and time. Overall we couldn’t be happier with our decision. We would recommend Mark and One Heart Personalized Ceremonies one hundred times over!

A Beautiful Ceremony that Fit Us Perfectly
We got engaged in March 2020 and decided in August 2020 to get married in October--of 2020! Neither of us have any official religious affiliation, so we weren't sure how best to find an officiant. After some research I found One Heart Ceremonies, and from our first conversation with Mark, we felt we were in good hands. Mark is incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and warm, and he helped us feel at ease through the whole process. Based on his thorough questionnaire which we both completed and our conversations, Mark wrote a beautiful ceremony that blended the traditional elements we were looking and that felt perfectly suited to us. This wasn't an out of the box ceremony, it was truly tailored and customized to us. Mark had so many helpful tips and reminders along the way--and during these times we especially appreciated his ability to work with us to follow all the covid-related safety measures we put in place for our wedding day. Thank you, Mark, for helping to make our day special and memorable!

Wonferful private backyard ceremony
When our initial plans for a traditional wedding fell through (due to covid), we reached out to local officiants to do a private outdoor ceremony. Mark was more than happy to fill that role! We had several phone calls and facetime meetings to make sure we were all on the same page regarding the personalized ceremony. Mark was kind enough to even great our guests "hello, good day," etc. in Russian as my husband's family was watching over a Zoom stream from Ukraine and Russia. Since there was no rehearsal, Mark surprised us with some cute statements from our wedding website making us laugh! He even took bits and pieces of our dating and engagement story and flawlessly weaved it into our ceremony. The ceremony was extremely intimate and sentimental. While not what we initially envisioned, overall we ended up a perfect ceremony held on Mother's Day for all of our family to watch near and far! We highly recommend Mark and One Heart Personalized Ceremonies to marry you!

Amazing! Life Saving
Mark was absolutely amazing and saved our wedding day. When COVID hit, we were so sad that we could not have the wedding day we planned, but still wanted to get married. We went ahead and had a backyard wedding with a cut down list. Our church at that time was not able to host any gatherings, and we were left with no priest or officiant to marry us. We can across Mark's page and were so relieved when he said he was able to officiate. It was a pleasure working with him, he eased our nerves and walked us through every step of the ceremony. We cannot thank him enough.

What a Wonderful Day
We worked with Mark for our Brooklyn Elopement. He made it easy to set up our elopement day and personalized our ceremony for just us. In the crazy times of a pandemic, he made it so that we could meet via FaceTime and was very easy to correspond with. It was great to work with him,

We chose One Heart because of Norma - she is a PROFESSIONAL and a God's sent to what we needed - a simple heart-felt ceremony in beautiful upstate NY on the Hudson...could not have found a better person to have us bond our souls for eternity!

Married despite COVID-19
When we called Norma to tell her that we had to postpone our wedding due to Coronavirus, she immediately offered to marry us the next day. Her quick thinking and decisiveness allowed us to get married before the clerk's office in NYC shut down for the pandemic. She met us at a mutually convenient (and also beautiful!) location with her husband and son and performed a personal and lovely ceremony for us. Her husband was our photographer and her son was our ring bearer and musician. They also acted as our witnesses to sign our marriage license. Norma's quick thinking and flexibility allowed us to get married before our planned wedding date, so that when it rolled around, we could celebrate our marriage, rather than mourn our postponed event. We are forever grateful!! Thank you Normal and clan.

Perfectly heartwarming experience!
From our very first introductory call, my husband and I knew Mark would be an incredible officiant. In every single communication, he was professional and warm, and took the time to get to really know us both as individuals and as a couple. With Mark, we could feel at ease. He really delivered on all aspects, from creating an entirely personalized ceremony program that truly encapsulated us as a couple, to overall just being an indispensable part of our entire planning process and wedding day. After the wedding, we heard so many compliments from our guests about how great Mark was. We cannot recommend Mark and One Heart Personalized Ceremonies enough, and they deserve all the accolades they have already gotten over the last 10+ years.

Would highly recommend
Norma was the officiant for my wedding and she was AWESOME! She was very responsive and was incredibly easy to set up a time to chat with. We spoke with her mostly after work, close to 7pm, and we really appreciated her flexibility. Norma did a great job commanding the room and focusing on the love between the both of us at our ceremony. Neither my wife nor I are very religious and Norma did a great job learning about us before the wedding enough to accurately portray our love story to all our guests at the ceremony.

Absolutely Perfect!
We were having some difficulty finding the perfect person to preside over our wedding this past September. Our venue recommended Mark and after having an initial phone interview with him we knew he was the right person to marry us. He was so easy to talk to and took his time getting to know both of us and the story of our relationship. Through a couple video interviews and a questionnaire that we had to answer separately, Mark crafted a beautiful and unique ceremony that captured our love and support for each other, our desire to include both families in the ceremony and reflect our religious beliefs. We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding ceremony than the one Mark created just for us. Thanks so much for everything Mark!

Mark was incredible
Words cant express how grateful we are to have used Mark as our officiant for our wedding! When it came to the limitless planning and preparation for our wedding, nothing daunted us more than the ceremony. Mark completely eliminated all worries and concerns by walking us through how our ceremony would run and allowing us to personalize every special moment. He took time to get to know us and was so dedicated in his approach. His advice, patience, and expertise alleviated all worries and turned it into excitement. When officiating our ceremony Mark was incredibly warm, thoughtful, and personal in his remarks. There wasn't a dry eye in the house and to this day our guests have remarked how beautiful it was. We look back at our ceremony with incredible joy and wonder, its ALL BECAUSE OF MARK. Thank you Mark and One Heart for truly making our Wedding ceremony a moment we will never forget.

Mark was a dream!
Mark of One Heart Personalized Ceremonies was a true pleasure to work with. My husband and I were recommended several officiants by the vineyard at which we were getting married. After researching the various options I decided to reach out to Mark. From the first email exchanges to our many in-person meetings leading up to our ceremony, my husband and I had no doubt that we had made the right decision in choosing Mark as our officiant. Mark is open-minded and really takes the time to both get to know you as a couple and to listen to what your wishes for your ceremony are. The ultimate result was more than we could have ever dreamed of. Mark spends many hours creating a ceremony that truly reflects your journey as a couple, and we had many guests comment on how beautiful and enjoyable our ceremony was. From start to finish Mark was the consummate professional, and he truly made creating our ceremony one of the most memorable parts of our wedding. I cannot recommend Mark any more highly!

From the very first phone call, we could tell that Mark was reliable and would be a great fit for us. He put both of our minds at ease throughout the process, was fantastic at setting up meetings and communicating with us, and ultimately was able to come earlier to the ceremony than we expected - which during the day of, is just one less stressor that you have to worry about. Mark is the definition of a reliable, caring officiant for your ceremony, you will be in good hands if you choose him!

September Wedding
For our Fall wedding, we were lucky enough to have worked with Mark from One Heart. The entire wedding process can be overwhelming and having the help of someone who’s been involved in many was a relief. Mark took the time to learn about us and though I was skeptical of the questionnaire, what he wrote about us from the interactions and answers, really captured our personalities and relationship. My wife and I would recommend One Heart’s services to others getting married.

We could not have been happier with our experience with Mark.

Mark was amazing!
Mark was absolutely amazing as our officiant. My husband and I wanted our wedding ceremony to feel relaxed but romantic and lucky for us we had seen Mark officiate before, as he officiated my sisters wedding the year prior.
Over the planning process and following chats with Mark my husband and I would constantly talk about how nice he was and how relaxed and comfortable he both made us feel (it really stood out to me that my husband was so comfortable). Mark really became a marital guide for us. His process of getting to know us as a couple also made us get closer and really think about what our marriage meant. It was a meaningful process and is still something I love about the planning process.
Our ceremony was exactly what we wanted it to be. Mark has a talent for translating how you feel into the words he shares with your guests. I felt like our ceremony was really a gift and experience for our family and friends. Our guests were all really engaged in what he shared and narrated sharing comments about how kind and thoughtful it was. Mark acts and speaks with love and it is very apparent in his officiating. We are so lucky to have been able to work with Mark and start our marriage with his words.

Beyond Blessed to have found Norma
This was a second marriage for myself and my spouse. That being said we were not able to be married in the Church. I was disappointed and had no idea how to find an officiant. So I googled...and started an online process. Norma got back to me very quickly. We spoke briefly on the phone about how the process worked and made an appt. to meet in person. I was skeptical at first, my traditional side thought it should be a man that married us. But when we met Norma I felt and immediate connection with her. As we sat and talked about our relationship, how we met, what was important to us as a couple and individually and beyond, my feeling toward her became warmer and warmer. I wanted Norma to be part of my family. Fast forward to our BIG DAY....the ceremony could not have been more perfect, it fit us and our love for each other and our families to a T. I wish I was better with words and writing....I want everyone to know how wonderful she is!! Thank you Norma and One Heart Ceremonies for making our day PERFECT!

Norma truly made our ceremony so incredibly heartfelt and special – it had felt like she had known us forever! She fully customized our ceremony and captured our love. From all of our pre-wedding day meetings and calls, she was able to create a beautiful ceremony that captured the essence of our relationship all in less than a half hour. She was such a pleasure to work with and we would fully recommend her to all of our friends and family. Thank you so much for everything Norma!

Working with Mark for our wedding was definitely a high point! He was warm, friendly and so very attentive! He thought of everything! The wedding was amazing and he had a lot to do with it! I'd gladly recommend him to any of my friends! The ceremony was witty, funny, personal and just exactly right. When we renew our vows he will be the one to call!

Amazing! Highly recommend!
We had the honor of working with Mark (one heart personalized ceremonies) on our wedding day (10/5/19) and he was absolutely fantastic from the day we first spoke. He made us feel relaxed, calm & super excited for the big day. We made it clear from our first meeting, that we do not love pubic speaking or a lot of attention on us and that we were nervous for the ceremony as we were saying our own vows. He made us feel comfortable & confident throughout the process & when the actual day came, we felt so relaxed and truly truly loved every second of the ceremony and we know that is largely thanks to Mark. Our family and friends LOVED the ceremony and cannot stop telling us how it was the best ceremony they've been to in a long time. He was warm, engaging, friendly & so kind. We are so so happy we chose him and would recommend him to anyone without hesitation. Thanks again Mark!!!!!

“The ceremony was the best part of our wedding day!”
“The ceremony was the best part of our wedding day!” is what my husband and I both said following our wedding! It was all incredible, but the ceremony was made so special by Norma. We had laughs, we had tears, and we had moments both ourselves and our guests will never forget. It was so memorable, as Norma made it clear that everyone before us was in the presence of true love, and that was very special for us. She spoke beautifully and truly personalized the ceremony just for my husband and I. Norma really took the time to get to know us beforehand, and used what she learned and felt, to create a ceremony unlike any other. Everyone expressed how unique and beautiful our ceremony was! Norma is exceptional.
Thank you for being such a special part of “the best part of our wedding day!” You made our ceremony one to remember by all!

Beautiful and Personal
Sometimes, in the midst of wedding planning, you can forget the real reason you’re doing all of this. To marry the love of your life. Mark made sure we not only remembered that, but prioritized it. The individual personalization and meaningful touches he used in our ceremony were so beautiful and special to us. So many of our guests said it was the best ceremony they’d ever watched. It was perfect and Mark’s services were worth every penny. If you’re nervous about how to create a ceremony from scratch, you can relax and let Mark build the perfect one for you and your spouse.

Beautifully captured our Relationship and Intentions
From the first communication Mark was attentive, listening to every details and so very thorough and helpful. We wanted spiritual, blessed and belonging to come from our vows and Mark captured that completely. He asked about every detail to be sure we were ready beyond the vows and ceremony he would be putting together. We were unsure which location in NYC we wanted, he took time and helped us to select just the perfect location, CopCot in Central Park. He captured our emotions, our feelings and our direction for our lives beautifully and simply. Our families loved every minute of the day with each commenting "what a wonderful ceremony and minister."
We are blessed to have found each other in this crazy world and thrilled we chose Mark for our minister in joining our lives together, as one.
We had

Mark is the best!
Mark was an absolute joy to have officiate our wedding! He is an extremely personable and professional man. My husband and I met with Mark in person once beforehand where we gave him a detailed breakdown of our relationship and individual personalities. He put together a stunning, personal and moving ceremony for us. It was the perfect combination of sentimental and light-hearted. Not cheesy, not forced. Everything flowed beautifully. We are so grateful to him for the time and effort he put in to make our ceremony feel special. Thank you, Mark!

Captivating!
We had such an incredible experience working with Mark. He hits every "mark" when it comes to his professionalism and experience. Our wedding ceremony was truly one of a kind with many guests telling us how captivating it was! Mark takes the time to get to know you and your partner through various meetings so that when the wedding day comes you feel SO comfortable standing next to him as he conducts your completely personalized ceremony!
If you have the chance to work with Mark we have no doubt it will be everything you expect and more. We are truly blessed that Mark was a part of our big day!

Mark truly was one of the best parts of our wedding. He made our wedding beyond memorable, with his custom and personal ceremony. I can not even count the amount of people that commented on how amazing the officiant was, and how touching and beautiful the ceremony was. Thank you Mark for making our day THAT much more special. You were truly amazing and can not thank you enough for making our ceremony so special.

Amazing Experience Working with Mark as Our Officiant
We cannot thank Mark more for creating such a beautiful ceremony for us. We fell in love with Mark the first 5 minutes talking to him, not only because of his charming voice and personality but also his professionalism. He crafted a touching speech for us out of the multiple pages questionnaire and turned it into something so beautiful that we could have wished for. Mark went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and paid extra attention to details to correct our grammar in the vows and get all the complicated Chinese names pronunciation right. All the family members and guests cannot stop complimenting how beautiful the ceremony is. We truly highly recommend Mark to all couples!!!

Brought a personal touch
We are so pleased with the ceremony Mark created for our wedding in July 2019. His process allowed for him to get to know us over a short period of time and respond to what was important to us. We had to balance religion, culture, and family expectations for which Mark gave honest feedback and encouragement. His experience showed even more on the day of when he met our families and worked with the venue when our ceremony was delayed. Mark treated our wedding as an equally important day for the bride and groom and picked up on the tone and style of our wedding. I imagine he mirrors the unique tone and style for all couples he works with.
