Tim Greathouse, Ohio Wedding Officiant 

5.0

Canton, OH
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $150
  • Serves Ohio

What’s the right wedding ceremony for a religiously independent couple? A courthouse ceremony is cold, impersonal, and over in a flash. A church ceremony is usually just a long sermon to which your actual ceremony is a sideshow. Pick your poison - a quick, dry affair with no heart, or a long, tedious slog that flies in the face of your worldview. Or... chuck that poison and grab the champagne. I got you, boo! I perform deeply personal, customizable ceremonies for couples who truly care about the content of their ceremony and want the declaration of their love and commitment to be truly unforgettable.

Working with Tim was a dream come true! He made the whole process of working together simple and easy to understand. We had fun as a couple answering his questions and he drafted a perfect ceremony that us and our families loved. He came to our rehearsal and made us feel so at ease about the entire process on our wedding day. He also has a wonderful spirit and amazing stage presence. We couldn’t recommend him more! We are so happy he was a part of our special day. Thank you Tim!

The Uncommon Officiant

Columbus, OH
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $150
  • Serves Ohio

I am a licensed wedding officiant from Worthington, Ohio and I have been performing weddings in Columbus and the central Ohio region since 2011. I love what I do and in the past 14 years I have presided over more than 650 ceremonies. Your ceremony is the first interaction your guests have with your wedding. So I set the right tone and generate the right atmosphere for everyone to relax, celebrate, and be present for the entire experience. Whether it’s a traditionally formatted wedding, non-religious ceremony, earth-based handfasting, or a simple elopement at a park, I am here to make sure your wedding is exactly what you want it to be.

In the last two years, Robert stepped up and performed the End of Life celebrations for both my mother (his grandmother) and my best friend, (his other mother). The ceremony brought heartfelt tears of sorrow, and much laughter of joy and celebration! We couldn't have asked for a better dedication!

Minister Sharnise Sears 

5.0

Willoughby, OH
  • Offers 7 ceremony types
  • Starts at $1,250
  • Serves Ohio

Hi, I’m Minister Sharnise Sears, a licensed wedding officiant and certified marriage educator who believes your ceremony should feel like *you*, not a script pulled off the internet. I work with thoughtful, intentional couples who want their wedding day to be beautiful, but their *marriage* to be even better. If you're careful about who you spend your money with (and rightfully so), you’ll find I bring heart, purpose, and just enough personality to make your ceremony unforgettable, in the best way. Let’s make your “I do” truly mean something.

As a wedding DJ, I’ve had the pleasure of working alongside Minister Sharnise Sears both at events and professionally as a fellow board member with WIPA Cleveland. What sets her apart is the genuine heart she brings to every ceremony—not just focusing on the wedding day itself, but on the lifelong commitment that follows. Sharnise brings a calm, attentive presence, and she’s an exceptional listener who always makes her couples feel truly seen and supported. Her work in diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging reflects her deep commitment to creating meaningful, culturally aware experiences. And with her ongoing studies in psychology, she brings an added depth to her role—helping couples feel not only celebrated but also prepared for the journey ahead. If you’re looking for someone who will honor your love story with intention, warmth, and wisdom, Sharnise is that person.

Wows And Vows

Columbus, OH
  • Offers 8 ceremony types

  • Serves Ohio

When Meb was in the 9th grade, she became an announcer for Varsity basketball. That's when she learned how to work a crowd. She's been a public speaker ever since. She's been an officiant for over 30 years. In 2015, she developed an online presence. She then trained her 2 best friends to officiate as well. Their personalities are different, but they have the same style. Who wouldn't want to be in business with their besties? We now officiate around 70 weddings a year and each one is custom-written. We enjoy getting to know our couples, preparing them for the big day, and exceeding their expectations for a ceremony.

We got an instant GREAT vibe from Meb from the first interaction via email. Then after we met up with her in person, we knew SHE WAS THE ONE! My partner and I are of a different faith so finding someone that would honor that and help us navigate that was important to us. Meb provided examples of readings/prayers/stories/vows to get an idea of what we could use. She also sent us questions separately and then used that information to customize our ceremony. Meb has so many other added personal touches that made us so confident in choosing her. She has such a calming presence that were very welcoming at the reception and day of wedding! We had several guests compliment her presentation and were impressed with how the ceremony flowed. She is a true professional...no need to worry if she steps out of the photo for the first kiss or how to hold hands or your bouquet during the dip :) We found Meb via the "Preferred Vendors" at our venue. We feel we have a new family member now :)

I am your guests' favorite thing about your wedding. Since 2011, I've been writing and performing personal, meaningful and refreshingly engaging ceremonies for couples just like you and couples who are nothing like you. Couples work with me with an easy, collaborative process during which I become your favorite part of wedding planning. I take guest experience and your wishes very seriously. Your families will thank you for getting somebody who makes the ceremony light while still making clear how beautiful it is that you found each other. I officiate all over the US.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Chris!! He came super highly recommended by our planner so we felt lucky to be able to book him for our date. From the first meeting, Chris was engaging and fun, yet professional and had a clear process that he explained to us. That process, included questions that dove deep into our relationship and love story and was extremely fun for us to complete. As I look back, his process feels like a super special part of the planning process. Then came wedding day…. Chris was phenomenal!!! The ceremony was so fun and exactly our vibe. He involved our guests the perfect amount and the ceremony felt so special and exactly what we wanted. Multiple guests raved about him, but beyond that, told me they got a chance to talk with him afterwards which I thought was so special that he stayed and engaged with guests. I would rate him more than five stars if I could, book Chris Shelley!!!

Hi, I’m Matthew Loveless, and I’m thrilled that you’re considering me to be a part of your special day. My journey as a wedding officiant began in 2014 when I was asked to officiate my brother’s wedding. It wasn’t your typical ceremony—picture me wielding a sledgehammer! But that’s when I realized something: I love performing weddings, and the more unique and unconventional, the better! Since then, I’ve been passionate about creating ceremonies that are as distinctive as the couples I serve.

Magical Vows was the perfect officiant for our wedding ceremony. From our initial consultation, Matthew was fast, thorough, and engaging in his communication style, clearly explaining the process and options available to us. His depth of knowledge, professionalism, and personal touch were apparent throughout our planning. Matthew took the time to get to know us as a couple and crafted a beautifully customized ceremony that truly reflected who we are. He even helped us write our heartfelt vows, which made the moment even more special. Matthew's attention to detail and dependability put us at ease on our wedding day, allowing us to be fully present and enjoy the ceremony. We are so grateful to Matthew and Magical Vows for playing such an important role in making our special day perfect.
