ther on a FaceTime, I felt like I knew Denise for years. She was great with communication and making sure our special day went as smooth as possible.

Tara of I Wed All officiated our wedding back in November of 2022 after hearing her officiate a friends wedding and she was nothing short of perfection in that she listened to our ...
wishes from the very beginning. We wanted an intimate, authentic ceremony and she honored that and then some. She is not the “saleswoman” type. In fact, she never asked me to leave a review or mentioned that there was a place to leave one until today, but I was happy to oblige! She made an often canned impersonal process both comfortable and exceedingly insightful. She incorporated romantic elements of which felt true to us but would have been difficult to express on our own accord. Thank you, Tara, for your kindness, attention and professionalism!!!♥️
Tara officiated my wedding in June 2022 and was an absolute natural. She is a talented writer and genuine spirit who incorporated all of the elements I had hoped to see in our cer...
emony, but in a way that incorporated her heartfelt perspective and what seemed like obvious wisdom beyond her years. My husband and I got so many compliments on our ceremony - everyone said it was such a standout among the other weddings they had been to recently. She brought a fresh take to what can sometimes feel like a formality or a precursor to the party and made it into its own main event. She was endlessly kind, professional, respectful and listened carefully to our wishes. Friends of mine even asked for her information right after our wedding to hire her for their upcoming weddings. If you are looking for a highly personalized, intimate and unique experience, I could not recommend Tara more!! An all around amazing person with a true passion and calling for this kind of work.
When I watched my best friend get married this past October, officiated by Denise, I knew I had to contact her for my upcoming wedding.
Denise officiated and wrote our entire cerem...
ony including vows and ring vows. During the months prior, she was so helpful in easing my anxiety of saying vows in front of a crowd and getting married in general! Denise is so personable, professional, kind, and amazing at what she does. I am BEYOND happy looking back at my wedding day, Denise made it perfect! I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone!
Tara did a great job officiating our wedding, even though we had some unexpected weather just as the ceremony started. She worked with us to create a ceremony that felt true to us ...
and made everything feel simple and smooth!

It’s just not possible thank Denise enough for how comforting, compassionate, and professional she was throughout the process. From the day we spoke to her for the very first time...
, she made us feel as if we knew each other for years! The sermon she made hit every point of our lives beautifully. We couldn’t have selected a better officiant if we tried. Thank you to “The knot” for putting us together, the day was everything we hoped for. It was full of love and smiles from beginning to end, and Denise really started us off perfectly. Denise, please keep in touch! We just made a friend for life. Much peace and love to you and your family.
Denise officiated our wedding over the weekend, and she was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. It was a great experience to be able to collaborate with Denise ...
to create the perfect ceremony for me and my husband. She incorporated our “jokes” perfectly, and had the crowd laughing and crying at all the right times. All of our guests complimented Denise’s abilities, delivery and beautiful words. I also loved how she was very open and made sure we felt comfortable with the whole ceremony, and that there were no surprises. She really is so organized, professional, and an overall delight to work with, even when we threw her a curve ball the day before the wedding. I will recommend her services to all of my friends getting married in the future, and she will always hold a special place in our hearts!

Denise Drapkin conducted my husband’s and my wedding ceremony and it was so beautiful. Denise wrote our love story and knew everything about us that we wanted to share with our fam...
ily and friends. She had us prepare by filling out a 15 question questionnaire. Very thorough! It gave us an opportunity to focus on what brought us together, how, when and why we fell in love, and what our vision for our wedding would be. Writing the answers to the questions was a very meaningful experience for my husband and me to relive our most important moments that brought us together. And then, Denise put our answers into our story that was totally personalized to us. Our guests remarked on what a beautiful ceremony we had, and commented on Denise’s warm and engaging personality. Everything flowed seamlessly. We’re so happy we chose Denise, and you will too if you want a wedding ceremony tailored to what you want and how you want everything to go. I highly recommend Denise.
Denise was a dream to work with! She was highly recommended by our wedding venue and now we see why! She wrote the most amazing, personalized ceremony for us. She truly captured wh...
o we are as a couple. She has a gift with her writing. Everyone was raving about how beautiful the ceremony was! I am still on cloud 9. Thank you Denise from the bottom of my heart for creating such a perfect ceremony for us
Denise officiated our wedding in May and she did a phenomenal job. From the moment we met with her she was warm, inviting, and gained our full confidence. She sent us a questionna...
ire and then wrote a beautiful ceremony that incorporated what we both said and added her own beautiful words that made it even better. She sent us the ceremony weeks before our wedding and we had plenty of time to review and change anything we didn't love- we didn't change a thing. Our families still talk about our ceremony and how Denise beautifully presented our love. I would absolutely recommend Denise and would use her again for a vow renewal!
Denise was a pleasure to work with! She's super organized and proactive and takes the time to get to know the couple to write a personal, heartfelt ceremony.

new she would be perfect to tell our love story. She is super responsive to our input and if there was any changes needed to be made she right away worked on them. She has made us feel comfortable with her being apart of our wedding day and we are thankful we have chosen her to share our love story!! :)
Choosing an officiant was towards the top of my list of wedding planning tasks I was stressed about. I couldn’t imagine having a total stranger put together a ceremony to tell our ...
love story. Denise absolutely knocked it out of the park. I could not have imagined a more perfect ceremony! Denise took the time to get to know us as individuals and as a couple, and she put together an amazing ceremony speech. I received so many compliments before the reception even started about how incredible the ceremony was. I know my guests felt my husband and I’s love for each other, while also appreciating the humor that Denise incorporated. Aside from the ceremony, Denise was SO easy to communicate with and showed up early with the best attitude! She gave a prep talk to my husband and I to help ease our nerves right before we started the procession. We are so grateful that she was the officiant for our wedding, and I would recommend Denise to anyone who is even a little stressed about this part of wedding planning.
My fiancé and I had the pleasure of meeting with Denise via Facetime in June of 2021. Initially, we provided Denise with a broad vision of our ceremony and she was very perceptive ...
and open to all ideas we had so both of us felt comfortable during our wedding day. Although it is always difficult to find the right words, to sum up, a ten-year relationship, Denise’s expertise and thought-provoking questions allowed us to tell the love story we wanted to our friends and family. She used perspicacious judgment in selecting which parts of the story to highlight and truly created a couple-centered ceremony we were thrilled with. After reviewing the written wedding ceremony we can see why she is so highly esteemed in the wedding community throughout Long Island. She and her beautifully thought-out ceremony will be an indelible influence on our wedding.
From the first time we spoke to Denise we knew we had found the one! She is highly professional, kind, talented and knowledgeable. Speaking with her felt like speaking with a dear ...
friend or an actual fairy godmother! Denise personally wrote and conducted the most heartfelt ceremony we could ever dream of.
We were looking for an officiant who could tell our story while incorporating earth-based and spiritual elements. Denise does it all and then some! This was a new process for us, she made us feel so special from day one and made time for all our inquiries from beginning to end. She got to know our love story and we were able to share what we desired in our ceremony, she listened and supported us every step of the way while providing guidance. The final product was a masterpiece ceremony which we will hold in our hearts forever. Denise’s words throughout the ceremony were delivered with love and care. Her warm personality, her tone and presentation are worthy of recognition, she’s a natural!
Words are not enough to express our gratitude toward Denise and the magical ceremony she conducted for us. If we’re lucky, one day she can honor us again during our vow renewal. Blessings to Denise and her family. We highly recommend her as an officiant!

ul, engaging ceremony. She was so easy to speak with, receptive to any changes requested, and I felt like she truly, genuinely wanted my husband and I to have the ceremony of our dreams. I had so many of my family and friends compliment our ceremony. Denise knew exactly what she was doing when it came to creating and holding a ceremony. My husband and I could not have asked for a more wonderful ceremony! I would HIGHLY recommend her!
Denise clearly puts her heart and soul into her work with the awareness that this a very intimate and marked time in her clients lives. Moreover, she is respectful and kind as an i...
ndividual. Unlike many vendors in the wedding business, particularly on Long Island and the NYC area, you will get an immediate air of sincerity from Denise. She wants to understand you and be understood as to respect a vision and love. She will NOT offer a generic or “one-size-fits-all” approach and while she is busy, I never once felt I was part of a factory line of couples and merely part of her business. Simply put, will a feel warmth and attention from Denise that has become increasingly hard to find.
Denise has been a pleasure to work with so far!! David and I are so grateful for all of the advice and guidance we have received so far especially since she is easily able to accom...
