He can provide you with a unique and personalized ceremony that speaks to your family and friends about the depth of your love and your hopes for the future.

Services Offered

Father Vince’s 42 years of experience blends psychology, spirituality, and celebration in the pursuit of wholeness and intimacy. One of his hallmarks is to convey to you and your guests a true sense of knowing one another. Your rapport with him becomes the heart and soul of your wedding ceremony. As you will see, he is not the officiant who has a quick call with you and shows up moments before the ceremony; such an important day in your lives and in the lives of your families calls for the skilled and comprehensive services he provides.

The pre-marital counseling included in Father Vince’s work with you will blend planning with discussions about yourselves, your relationship, and the ways in which you remain healthy as individuals and as a couple. He finds that conversations that integrate planning and counseling help to enrich each other. These are the building blocks of your relationship and will contribute to the durability of your marriage. Additional pre-marital sessions are available upon request.

Incredible experience and wedding ceremony! Father Vince is the BEST!

We feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Father Vince. If he is available for your wedding day, you should absolutely do it! I was a bit hesitant to hire someone to officiate our ceremony (rather than asking a friend or family member), but our experience with Father Vince changed my mind. As a same-sex couple, we couldn't get married in the Church that we wanted to, but wanted to have a priest who had experience with both giving sermons and counseling couples (and of course someone who supported our relationship and desire to get married). Father Vince was the perfect person for us.

Throughout the process, he was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and willing to accommodate all of our requests. He genuinely wanted to get to know us, understand our relationship, and create the type of meaningful wedding ceremony that we were after. His pre-wedding questionnaire led to some great conversations between my wife and I, and our discussions with him during our meetings were also really helpful! (I think about his marriage advice quite often!) He also welcomed us into his home for our final pre-wedding meeting and his wife, Christine, made us delicious scones and when we were finished meeting, insisted on driving us to the train station back to NYC. They are such kind and thoughtful people.

Perhaps most importantly, Father Vince did an incredible job officiating our ceremony. So many of our guests came up to us after the ceremony (and told us in the weeks that followed) how impressed they were with him and how the ceremony was so meaningful and special. During the ceremony, Father Vince spoke to us directly while also engaging our guests. We can't thank Father Vince enough!

The perfect officiant for our day!

Father Vince was such a pleasure to work with! My wife and I are Catholic but got married at our venue rather than a church. We wanted to add some religious elements to our ceremony, and Father Vince helped us create a ceremony that perfectly matched our vision. Not only is he a big help throughout the planning process, but he was also the perfect officiant during the ceremony. He was entertaining, a true professional, and he even offered his own words about my wife and I, which was super kind and meaningful. We could not have asked for a better day or a better officiant. We highly recommend Father Vince!

The highlight of our day!

Finding the right officiant was a unique challenge for us. I am a former Catholic with extremely Catholic relatives and my husband is Muslim-- you can imagine the anxiety and conflict that went into planning our wedding. From the very first meeting we both knew he would be the one to marry us. The genuine kindness and love he will show you in your first meeting is what you will feel from him throughout your journey.

Both sides of our family were EXTREMELY happy with the ceremony. I was surprised that the devout muslims thought that the ceremony was so beautiful and moving- it just goes to show the power and natural ability Father Vince has to connect with anyone.

No matter what your religion, no matter where you come from, choosing Father Vince as your officiant would be one of your best decisions for your wedding!

Rev Vince, offers the whole package. He is a skilled minister and an excellent counselor. He is my former boss and was a kind manager and supervisor. You would do well to have Father Vince as your officiant.
