    Great officiant and overall great guy!

    We were so lucky to randomly find Rodd by happenstance on here. We are originally from Youngstown but moved up to Cleveland so finding a local officiant was daunting. We knew instantly when meeting him in person that he was the perfect fit for us! Very open and flexible to your ceremony's needs. He accommodated us and the ceremony went great. Multiple people, including the DJ asked us who he was and where we knew him from because he presented so confidently it was as if we had known him for years. Great officiant and overall great guy!

    This was a beautiful wedding and it’s one of the reasons I like doing this so much is because you could tell the relationship of the bride and groom to the spirit of the people that gathered there and it was wonderful. I too felt like I knew these people for a long time.

    Exceptional officiant and florist!

    We couldn't imagine our wedding without having Rodd as our officiant and florist! Rodd is such a charismatic and genuine person, and we feel like we really found someone special to share our day with. From the first time we met Rodd we knew we wanted him to be our officiant. We wanted an outdoor wedding in the Catholic style and he was very much onboard with making our day exactly how we imagined.

    After a delay from the pandemic, in which Rodd was very accommodating, we realized we also wanted to consider him for our flowers, since he also owns and operates Full Circle Florist. Rodd listened to all our ideas and made great suggestions throughout, even when we met with him several times because we didn't know much about the process or much about flowers. His prices were reasonable and he told us more than once that the wedding was for us and whatever we like should be what we get. He strongly advocated that no couple starting a life together needed to break the bank in the process.

    In the end, Rodd served as both our officiant and florist for the whole wedding. His speech was so thoughtful and personalized to us, and he made us feel the love of family and friends. Even a month after our wedding, our guests are still referencing his great speech!

    Rodd also went above and beyond with the flowers, totally exceeding our expectations with the table arrangements and bouquets!

    We can't recommend Rodd Coonce enough, whether you're looking for a flexible officiant or a florist that excels at interpreting your vision!

    So kind and attentive

    We loved Rodd so much!! The time he spent getting to know us to make sure our ceremony was personalized to us is incomparable. As a nervous bride, I spent a lot of time talking to Rodd about it my fears and he was so easy to talk to and felt like I had a friend to vent to. People still talk about how wonderful Rodd was at our ceremony even almost a year later!! We are so blessed to have found him!!!

    Professional & Accomodating

    We met with Rod and immediately knew he was the person for our celebration. It was a small family gathering conducted in the privacy of our own backyard. He was thorough and asked all the right questions to personalize the ceremony. We would recommend Rod to perform your special day. Thanks Rod for memories that we will cherish the rest of our Lives.

    Pick this one!!!

    Oh my gosh! Not enough good things to say about Rod!! We met him the night before our wedding and he had a quick meeting with us to find out funny stories, how we met, how long we’ve been together to make the ceremony super personal. All of my friends and family thought we knew him for years!!! He was serious, hilarious and tied everything back to our love for one another! He was a riot !

    I have often heard of love at first sight. I believe in friends at first sight and when I met this couple I felt we were friends at first sight. I love performing marriages and this is one example of why I do.

    Surpassed our expectations

    Rod went above and beyond to pull everything together during a rainy ceremony. He made it so personal and special. He received so many compliments from our guests.
    We could not have asked for anything more!

    Marriage Officiant Youngstown's reply:

    Just before the ceremony the rain poured down. POURED! It was an outside wedding in a Pavilion in Millcreek Park. The rain only lasted a few minutes and then the sky was beautiful and clear and we went on with the ceremony. It was a wonderful sign of how sometimes in life a little rain must fall, but ultimately something good always comes out of it. The guests were so worried that it would damper the day, but this beautiful couple calmed them down and the sunshine not only came from the sky, but from their faces and the faces of their guests. Great wedding!!
