“Remind us of the rejuvenation to be found from the sheer pleasure of playing and laughter that is so very good for heart, mind and soul. In the midst of all there is to do, send us out to skip in the spring rains, run across beaches, grow a garden and play in the snow.”
-Margaret Anne Huffman

Long Island Wedding Officiant
Are you getting married on Long Island or in the New York metropolitan area and looking for a creative & professional Wedding Officiant?
Do you believe that your wedding ceremony is the most significant part of your wedding day, and not just an introduction to the reception?
Do you envision a personalized ceremony that reflects your unique history, style and future dreams as a couple?
I'm so glad you found me! Congratulations on your engagement and upcoming wedding. I am a Long Island and New York City Wedding Officiant who designs and performs spiritual, civil, religious, interfaith, multicultural and Humanist wedding ceremonies. I guarantee a personalized, collaborative approach to crafting a ceremony that will inspire you and your guests and serve as a cherished memory throughout your marriage. The ceremony development process can be very transformative for engaged couples, so let’s enjoy it together!
Are you looking to elope on Long Island but want a more intimate setting than the local Town or City Hall?
I officiate elopements on Long Island year-round. I have two locations in Suffolk County or can come to you in most cases. Please refer to my elopements page for more information about the special service.
I would love to talk with you about how we can work together to create your ceremony. Please call me or visit my contact page to check my availability for your special day. Until then...
Smile,
