Todd,
Thank you for the most amazing ceremony.
My husband and I felt so comfortable and at ease up there while making this commitment with Todd leading the way. Thanks for the pre-marital sessions and everything Todd did to make this journey so memorable and enjoyable for us!
Everyone we spoke to kept raving about how incredible Todd was and we wanted to ensure we passed along their incredible feedback and let everyone know how incredibly great it was for us. Thank you so much.
I cannot stress this enough - Hire Todd Rodarmel to officiate your wedding immediately! You will not regret it for one instant. Knowing what I know now, I would not book my wedding date until I know he’s available or I would change my date if it meant he could officiate my wedding.
Todd Rodarmel is the best officiant that we, my family and guests have ever had the pleasure to meet. We have received almost as many compliments about Todd as we did for our entire wedding. Guests absolutely raved about him and are still raving about him weeks later. He is a singular talent, a class act and an absolute gift. He is worth every single penny for every single second of his time. I would recommend him to every and anybody getting married even if you are not getting married in middle Tennessee. Todd, thank you for providing us with the most beautiful ceremony that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

Your wedding ceremony shouldn't feel like a transaction, a generic script, or a rigid lecture. It is the very threshold of your marriage—a moment that deserves to be warm, deeply personal, and entirely yours.
I’m Todd Rodarmel, an ordained minister and wedding officiant based in Nashville. I specialize in working with modern, values-driven couples who want a ceremony that feels elevated, authentic, and professionally guided.
Many of the couples who hire me are working with Nashville's top wedding planners to design a flawless day. They aren't looking for a highly traditional or overly religious service, yet they deeply appreciate the presence, authority, and warmth of a legitimate pastor to guide them through their vows. My approach is non-judgmental, collaborative, and entirely focused on honoring your unique story and shared values.
Because a beautiful wedding day is only the beginning, I also specialize in structured, modern premarital counseling. Think of it as a meaningful investment in your future—a space to build practical tools for communication, intimacy, and partnership long after the wedding gallery is delivered.
To ensure that I can collaborate closely with your planning team and give your ceremony the meticulous attention it deserves, I accept a limited number of commissions each season.
I partner with you and your creative team to ensure the moment you say "I do" is seamless, stress-free, and deeply memorable. Whether you choose to have me at the rehearsal or not, I work with your planner to ensure everything is well prepared and simple to execute.
Intentional Premarital Counseling: A modern, practical series of private preparation sessions focused on building a resilient, lifelong marriage.
Creative Partner Synergy: Direct, professional coordination with your planner, venue, and DJ/musicians to ensure perfect sound, timing, and flow.
Vow Coaching: Private guidance to help you articulate your promises beautifully and confidently.
Ceremony Styles accommodated:
- Values-Centered & Non-Religious
- Faith-Informed & Spiritual
- Interfaith & Single-Religion
- Traditional & Contemporary
