Shepherdstown, WV
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Serves West Virginia

I am Holland, a wedding officiant based in West Virginia who serves couples all along the East Coast. I create custom ceremonies that feel true to who you are. Whether you are eloping in the woods or planning an wedding surrounded by all of your loved ones, I bring a calm and caring presence to your day. With over one hundred weddings of experience, I offer full support, thoughtful planning, and meaningful words that reflect your story and your values.

Summit Weddings & Elopements were an exceptional choice for our wedding officiant. From the very beginning, their communication style was honest, realistic, and showed true integrity. The value and quality of their work was amazing - they went the extra mile to ensure our special day was perfect. For example, they helped us find a hairdresser for our remote location and handled the inclement weather at our outdoor venue with great grace and professionalism. The officiant, Holland Hook, is a truly inspired individual who made the wedding prep and planning process seamless. Our photos were of exceptional quality, and everything Summit Weddings & Elopements touched made our day absolutely perfect and memorable. We couldn't have asked for a better team to officiate our wedding.

Tim Greathouse, Ohio Wedding Officiant 
Rating: 5.0 (43 reviews)
Canton, OH
  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $150
  • Serves West Virginia

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 care about the content of their ceremony and want the declaration of their love and commitment to be truly unforgettable. 800+ ceremonies, 500+ rehearsals, 17 years!

Tim was an absolutely incredible officiant and you can tell he absolutely loves his job. He makes a point to ask the perfect questions from his couples that will lead to such a beautiful ceremony. Our wedding was in September of 24, and we still get people mentioning how awesome Tim was. I'd totally suggest him to anyone.

Amor Celebrant was a true professional to work with for any wedding ceremony. From the very first interaction, her communication style was both personable and prompt, which puts my clients at ease during the planning process. The quality of her work is truly unique and special - she takes the time to get to know the couple and crafts a personalized, detail-oriented ceremony that highlighted the modern touches couples often want while honoring traditional elements. Amor has assisted us with the rehearsal the day before weddings and helped out after the ceremony was over, going above and beyond to ensure my clients special day was seamless. We appreciated Amor's ability to listen my client’s needs and make the ceremony all about them, bringing their guests into the moment to fully experience the couple’s love. Her versatility and expertise made every wedding ceremony unforgettable.

When we began planning our wedding, we thought it would be nearly impossible to create a ceremony that would make everyone happy. My husband and I come from very different religious backgrounds, and we truly had no idea where to start. Left to our own devices, we probably would have just gone to the courthouse, but we knew our families (especially mine) hoped for something much more traditional. I was so pleasantly surprised to find Your Wedding Officiant and learn that we could build a ceremony from scratch- one that honored tradition while still feeling true to us. We worked closely with Reverend Dennis, who guided us every step of the way. He was incredibly kind, communicative, flexible, and such a pleasure to work with. Thanks to him, we were able to create a beautiful ceremony that thoughtfully blended our families’ values with our own preferences. I can’t overstate how meaningful it was to have so much control and customization without sacrificing reverence or structure. I would recommend Your Wedding Officiant to absolutely anyone. We are so grateful to Reverend Dennis and the team for helping make our day unforgettable.

Working with the team at I Got A Love Jones Events was an absolute pleasure. While I communicated with Sarah anytime of day she was there and ready with a reply! She took everything in no matter how much I was confused and nervous throughout the process because of course this is a once in a lifetime experience. She took everything I said and made it beautiful! I sent her a super long poem to read for the ceremony and the delivery of it was everything I ever would want on our very special day. In all, I wouldn't have wanted anyone else to unite our union.

I work with all different types of couples and will help you design the perfect wedding for you.

Gina Hawthorne of Weddings by Gina Hawthorne was an amazing officiant for our wedding. She is an honest, great communicator, and very personable. Gina arrived early for our Sunday ceremony, which we really appreciated. She was professional throughout the entire process and made us feel comfortable. Gina's fee is very reasonable compared to other officiants, and we feel we got great value for the money. If you are looking for an officiant who will make your special day memorable, I highly recommend Gina Hawthorne. I will be sure to refer her to any of our friends or family who need someone to marry them.

Gemma was absolutely wonderful to work with as our wedding officiant! From the very beginning, she was so attentive to my wishes and made sure every detail felt personal and meaningful. She really took the time to understand what we wanted, and that care showed through in every part of the ceremony…even down to getting it finished and us pronounced right at 11:11! I think we had 30 seconds to go but she did her best to listen to my wishes! It was such a bonus that she also did photos for us—she captured beautiful moments that we’ll treasure forever. If you’re looking for someone warm, professional, and truly invested in making your day special, I highly recommend Gemma!
