About This Vendor

Philly, Poconos, & Lehigh Valley Wedding Officiant

Based in the Lehigh Valley of eastern Pennsylvania, Katherine Hunter invites you and your partner to make what is uniquely meaningful to you the centerpiece of your wedding celebration. With a wealth of ideas and inspiration to draw on, meticulous attention to detail, and natural warmth, Katherine will work alongside you to co-create a highly personalized ceremony you’ll never forget! Katherine has five years of experience as a wedding Celebrant and offers non-religious, interfaith, and Humanist wedding ceremonies. She takes the time to listen carefully and understand what her couples want most out of their day, even when they start out not being quite able to say what they are looking for. Guests frequently approach her after wedding ceremonies to ask how she knows the couple. Her services begin with a free, no-obligation consultation to get to know one another and explore the type of ceremony you envision. Katherine can help you clarify what you're looking for with thoughtful questions and a collaborative approach. She'll provide questionnaires and a library of resources to help you capture what is most important to you, and weave it into your one-of-a-kind ceremony. Where you lead, she'll follow. And on your wedding day, you'll both feel at ease knowing that every detail has been thought of. Katherine Hunter is an Endorsed Humanist Celebrant who joyfully celebrates all loving unions and is available to work in eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and beyond. In addition to officiating weddings, she also offers elopements, vow renewals, adoption ceremonies, transgender naming ceremonies, new beginnings, baby welcomings, and end of life celebrations.

Katherine Hunter designed and expertly delivered the wedding ceremony of our dreams. She did this with patience, warmth, and confidence. Katherine met with us regularly over Zoom through the pandemic and was readily available and willing to a...
nswer any and all of our questions. She provided invaluable advice about our ceremony program as well as our walk-through rehearsal at the venue (which proved to be critical). Many of our guests approached us after the ceremony to compliment Katherine's professionalism and poise and to share how impressed they were with each unique segment of the program. Most notably, our guests were thrilled by the handfasting ritual that we included at Katherine's recommendation. From start to finish, all of the words and actions of our ceremony held weight and spoke specifically to my now-husband and I as a couple. You can absolutely trust in Katherine to create a personal, heartening celebration for your occasion.

was very helpful for me as the bride as well as the bridal party. Katherine was able to create a fantastic personalized ceremony from meeting us virtually several times from when we secured our date up to the wedding date. Our ceremony was everything we imagined it could be- several wedding guests told me it was the most heart-felt ceremony they have ever attended.

, and interested in learning about us to create the wedding we wanted. She did not impose her wishes or expectations on us and led us to options and respected our decisions for our ceremony. She thoughtfully considered how we might wish to incorporate our families and traditions and background. We had lots of input and opportunity to perfect the ceremony and vows, and she helpfully kept us on track and on our timeline. We hired Katherine rather late in our wedding planning process, but she expertly guided us. Guests came away from our ceremony loving it and saying it was "the best wedding ever." (They love us, of course, but this was sweet to hear nonetheless.) Katherine was a big part of making the wedding an amazing experience for us. Regarding logistics, she was on time (way early to be honest!), prepared, and flexible. She helped make sure we had what we needed. What words come to mind with Katherine? She is thoughtful, professional, organized, prompt, communicative, warm, and friendly. She was easy to recommend - highly recommended!

essionalism and understanding, she took the stress out of our planning process. She made a real effort to learn about us and wrote a nonreligious ceremony that held meaning for us. Our guests and family are still reaching out to us to talk about how blow away they were by the ceremony. All in all Katherine went above and beyond to make our wedding day an unforgettable one. We can't recommend her highly enough. Thank you Katherine.

e sends her couples to fill out. We wanted something very personal for our ceremony and she delivered just that. She sends drafts often towards your wedding date to make everything is perfect. We’ve had so many guests, and non guests who’ve seen our wedding video, comment on how beautiful our ceremony was, and that’s all thanks to Katherine. If you’re looking for something to fit your style, funny, serious, a mix of both, and yet very personal, Katherine will give you just that. I will recommend her to every couple I know that is planning a wedding!

fered clear guidance and supported us as we figured out what we wanted. When we weren't sure, she offered tasteful suggestions. We felt very supported by Katherine, who was patient and responsive throughout the whole process. When I read the first draft of the ceremony, I cried tears of joy, relief, and resonance for what Katherine so beautifully captured for us. We appreciated Katherine's willingness to lead a very thorough rehearsal for us the day before the wedding. Katherine blew us and our guests away with her presentation--everyone told us how beautiful and moving it was for them. It was important to us that we share an announcement about my father's terminal illness, and Katherine stepped up and held a powerful container for this special circumstance. Working with Katherine allowed us not to worry and instead focus on being entirely present for our wedding day! Hire her, you won't be disappointed.

m the very start. Katherine takes the time to get to know her couples. Although we couldn't meet before the wedding in person, we did meet with her a few times via Zoom. She is extremely organized and professional and from our first meeting, I knew we were in good hands. You can tell that Katherine truly cares about what she does. Her process is extremely thorough; every detail is accounted for, which gave us total peace of mind. Through an "interview" and using questionnaires, Katherine delivers a fully personalized ceremony. Our guests loved it - we received so many compliments. Katherine also conducts an online rehearsal, which helped to put us at ease before the wedding. Thank you Katherine for your kindness, professionalism, and flexibility in working with us!

kind and thoughtful which made it a joy to work with her! Upon reading the first draft we were thrilled at the attention to detail and how she clearly heard our story and what we wanted.

While Covid wreaked havoc with many of our plans, Katherine remained positive and flexible allowing us to focus on everything else! She guided us through everything we needed to do so we could trust that every detail would be managed well. In the end, the ceremony was lovely and all who attended either in person or remotely commented on how beautiful and personal it was. Many joined us in tears of joy!

ew ideas out of us that we couldn't have thought of on our own. She really wanted to know what our story was! Within just a few days, she had a draft for our review. She wanted our input, but there was nothing we could add or critique. The ceremony she wrote and eventually presented to our large audience was absolutely perfect. She's a natural storyteller and orator. My wife and I felt seen and understood and special. How could she capture us so seamlessly? It was really amazing and so many of our guests couldn't stop talking about it. The way Katherine listened to us and the way she kept us in the loop throughout the entire process put us at ease. And we know, we could not have gotten through the many stresses that come with a wedding without a rock solid celebrant like Katherine Hunter. She was really in our corner! We are eternally grateful to her and would highly recommend her again and again.

I bring a longstanding fascination for world cultures and traditions to my work as a wedding officiant. I'm especially interested in the ways in which human beings invest milestone events with personally held values and meaning. Living abroad for several years, studying multiple foreign languages, and extensive travel through Europe, the Middle East, South America, and Asia helps me navigate many cultures and worldviews with sensitivity and respect. Attentive listening, strong communication skills, and natural curiosity about people help me draw out your vision for your special day.
