The officiant, Donna Marie, was really nice and accommodating. The place is this tiny room, in what seems like a maze of a building, but it was so intimate and cozy. The place was clean and the officiant complied with all the Covid regulations so we didn't have to worry about that. We did the "sign and smile" package and it costs $75. Quick, easy, and simple. We were in and out in maybe 15 minutes. The officiant also mails out the signed document which saves us time and hassle. I would recommend this business to anyone who are looking for an officiant for their marriage ceremony. Thank you for your service!

I was searching for a wedding chapel right here in NYC that would allow for multiple witnesses, provide photographs, and remained reasonable in cost. This place came up in my Google search and then I looked at their instagram photos and it was so cute and I love that the officiant is a woman with a quirky personality. Donna Marie is super sweet, very efficient, and she definitely does a wonderful ceremony. She is literally a one woman show taking pics, setting up, officiating and maintaining a sense of humor. If I could do it again I wouldn't change a thing.

Alice was the  perfect officiant for our interfaith wedding. She wrote a script based on our story,…read moreincorporated both Jewish and Catholic traditions, and walked through all the logistics so we had nothing to worry about. She also helped us remain calm and present during the ceremony, when we were both full of nerves and excitement!

Our experience with Alice was phenomenal, from beginning to end. Finding the right officiant who…read morewas okay with performing a non-religious ceremony was a priority for us, so we started the search pretty early. I'd seen Alice's profile before we had started to make inquiries, and made a mental note about her. Then a few months later, when I was honestly feeling discouraged by the prospects, I remembered Alice! Immediately when we met with her virtually, we felt at ease about the process. She was kind, calm, and very easy to talk to. We decided pretty quickly that we would hire her. And, importantly, she specialized in helping couples create their perfect ceremony, with as little or as much tradition as desired. We even were able to meet her in person prior the wedding, which was such a treat! And cemented the comfort and ease we felt with her. We can confidently say that our wedding ceremony was perfect. It was obvious how much time Alice had spent creating and helping is craft our love story, and it felt incredibly intimate, even with our 68 guests. Another aspect during the process that was incredible, was how many resources Alice has! She's a real pro, and has dozens of example vows that really helped us with our own. The back and forth process of editing the ceremony was also extremely collaborative -- knowing exactly what was going to be said and done before hand was huge for us. Thank you, Alice, for helping us craft our ideal ceremony, and for being just so great along the way! We HIGHLY recommend Alice -- would have her marry us over and over again.

I knew the moment I heard her calm demeanor on the answering machine that she was the one! She was flexible, worked with us on the details and met us right away. She was unfazed by the rushing around we were doing and held space calmly and compassionately. She took charge in a gentle way, guiding us with great elegance. She did an impromptu ceremony with just four of us in attendance and was just lovely. We were honored to have her work with us. Thank you Rev. Samora for being the epitome of kindness and joy.

Rev. Samora is one of a kind!!…read more We met her at a wedding fair and hired her to be the officiant for our wedding in May/2019. We can hardly put everything in words: Her speeches, her voice tone, the way she made the ceremony so flowy and catchy, her effort, the perfect coordination with every detail we had in mind for our day, everything was just perfect. Most of our guests kept asking for how long had we met her for, since everybody thought we were close friends. Not to mention how she made absolute everyone there (grooms included) bawl out!! She is amazing and would recommend her for anyone looking for authenticity and warmth during the ceremony.

I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for an officiant, he can adjust his sermon to suit your needs!

We are beyond grateful for Marissa from "Your Story Ceremonies" for officiating our wedding!…read moreShe created such a beautiful ceremony that truly reflected the love and memories my husband and I have shared over the years. Marissa was incredibly easy to work with, always on time, and made sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. She went above and beyond by including our daughter and our moms in the ceremony, which made the day even more meaningful. When I say there wasn't a dry eye in the house, I truly mean it -- every single person was moved by her words. We had so many guests asking if we had known her for years, because she made it feel like we had a close friend officiating for us. Marissa was wonderful in every way, and we couldn't have asked for a better person to lead us through such a special moment. If you're looking for someone who will make your ceremony personal, heartfelt, and unforgettable, Marissa is the one!

Planning a wedding is really, REALLY stressful but this part was a dream and a breath of fresh air! Danielle is a fabulous communicator with a warm heart and spirit and helped my hubby and I form our most perfect wedding ceremony ever, it was certainly "our" story. We truly appreciate the time she took to work with us and to craft a wedding ceremony that left not a dry eye in the house when we said our "I do's" this summer. How many weddings have you been to where you can barely hear what the officiant/priest/rabbi is saying? Or how many times is it the same thing over and over and over....Cannon in D, check. Corinthians, check. *yawn* We wanted something different...something memorable. And this is exactly what we got. Afterwards, everyone was asking how we knew the officiant...was she a friend? Distant relative? How did she know us so well! We told how we came across her just from a Google search. D liked her because she is also an NYU alum, and we both liked the vibe we got just from reading her website before we even met her. She has a true gift for capturing your love story and told it so beautifully on our wedding day. We couldn't have asked for more - everyone told us that ours was the BEST wedding ceremony they have ever been to, so unique, so sweet and so special. And they also learned more about us as a couple (ie. we are super competitive when it comes to our board games, haha!). We received about a zillion compliments and two months after our wedding people are still commenting on how beautiful, special and romantic our ceremony was. Danielle is amazing, you will not be disappointed. If you're getting married, renewing your vows, etc. please contact her. She is a lovely person inside and out and will make your event perfect.

Denise was so understand and compassionate, and was available the day of our wedding. Our first phone call, she made me feel so relaxed and in good hands. She is very easy to work with and is always available to answer questions. We filled out a questionnaire so she could get to know myself and my husband a bit more and then she wrote out our wedding services based on the extensive questions she asked. We were given a chance to read through and review the ceremony, which she wrote out in full detail. Denise is so well organized and provides excellent attention to detail, and we were so pleased with this. She gave us peace of mind for our wedding day. When we met Denise for the rehearsal we immediately felt she is such a kind soul who is in this field because of her passion for love and for helping others with their special days. We are so happy to have met Denise and to have had such a positive energy like herself on our wedding day, as she really made us feel so special and really highlighted our love on that beautiful day. Thank you so much Denise for being so kind and pleasant, we are so fortunate to have worked with you!
