I loved how Philly Wedding let us pick and choose our ceremony to be our own! It was beautiful and really focused on our love. Thank you, Patrick!
Reverend Loftus was very professional and our HERO!
He was able to step in the officiate our wedding with less than a week's notice. After our previous officiant (through a different company) dropped out last minute, we contacted Philly Wedding Co and Reverend Loftus was able to step in and quickly agreed to officiate our wedding. He did a great job at quickly putting our vows together and made us feel at ease despite the chaos of the wedding week. Thank you again Reverend Patrick!
Rev Loftus was a dream to work with. He was such a wonderful part of our rehearsal and wedding! We loved the ability to customize our ceremony to our tastes and beliefs, and really appreciated his good humor throughout the process. I cannot recommend him enough! We love Rev Pat!
Any questions?
I am so thrilled with Philly Wedding Co.!!! Our officiant fell through about 6 months before our wedding, and that's when I discovered them. Rev Joe was very responsive and wrote us some really amazing ceremonies to choose from. Once we chose one, he made all of the changes we requested without hesitation! Patrick performed our ceremony and he was wonderful. He was friendly and smiling the entire time. All of our guests commented on how great the ceremony was. After the ceremony, Patrick gave my husband and I a small gift - it was a little framed piece of artwork with our names and date of marriage in it!! It looks like he might have made it himself. Regardless, it meant so much to us.
Neither me or my husband are religious at all, and we did not once feel judged or pressured to have a religious ceremony. I would highly recommend them to anyone with an upcoming wedding!
We worked with both Reverend Joe and Reverend Patrick for our wedding. They were both very quick to respond and help us with whatever questions we had regarding our ceremony, marriage license, and logistics. They were very flexible with us, and when circumstances changed, they made sure we had what we needed and were happy. We got comments from family & friends about how beautiful and complete our nonreligious ceremony was; they included everything we could have wanted and we could not be happier with how our ceremony turned out.
We had the pleasure to have Rev Joe officiate our wedding this past weekend. He provided an overview before the ceremony to make sure we understand the flow of events so that everything goes smoothly. He kept everything simple and straight to the point. We couldn't have chosen a better reverend to officiate our wedding. Thank you so much!
Rev. Joe was exactly what we hoped for when we were looking for a wedding officiant. We wanted something simple and yet still meaningful for our backyard wedding. We were able to meet with Joe beforehand on the phone and he had several script options for us. He was easy to contact, great to work with, and very responsive. I cannot recommend Joe and Philly Wedding Company enough -- our ceremony was everything we hoped for and Joe showed up early to walk us through everything. Do not look elsewhere, the Philly Wedding Company are perfect for any officiating you may need!
Phillyweddingco was awesome! Joe was professional and responsive. He was able to do our ceremony on short notice and was able to work with us when our venue changed. He was also great in providing a ceremony specific to us. It was a great experience :)
Phillyweddingco was great and gave A 1 service. Our officiant was Rev Patrick, who was friendly and easygoing, which my husband and I appreciated. Phillyweddingco was efficient and very professional and did an amazing job helping to make our day wonderful! Thank you again Phillyweddingco, job well done!!

Rev Joe was awesome! He was prompt with email responses. His prices were great. Rev Joe was on time for rehearsal and ceremony. Everything went great!
Patrick and Joe were super helpful and responsive throughout the entire process! Joe explained everything clearly and took the time to answer all of our questions. Patrick was awesome to work with. He was very patient with our large bridal party and had a great sense of humor. We're so happy we chose them to be a part of our big day!
Philly Wedding Co. was excellent to work with. Rev. Joe was exceptionally responsive and communicative. He allowed us to customize our ceremony in exactly the way we wanted it, providing guidance and suggestions where we needed some. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant.
Reverend Joe officiated our wedding on 9/20/19 and we couldn’t be more pleased! After our first phone encounter we knew with found the perfect person to officiate our wedding. Joe is easygoing, attentive, and professional. Rev Joe also helped us customize our ceremony and even accommodated last minute requests. We did not have the pleasure of meeting Joe until the day of the ceremony, but he made sure we knew what to expect and even took the time to speak with us after the Ceremony to explain the process of obtaining our marriage license. If you are looking for a reliable and affordable wedding officiant look no farther! Thank you so much Joe & Philly Wedding Co
Rev. Patrick officiated our ceremony, and we couldn’t be happier with how it went. We did not meet him until immediately before the ceremony, but you would think we’d known him for years. He understood how busy and tightly scheduled our day was, so he took care of business quickly and efficiently, which we appreciated. We worked with Rev. Joe to customize our ceremony, creating the perfect setting for us to marry. When I reached out at the last minute with a couple of special requests, Rev. Joe was happy to accommodate. Truly an easy and enjoyable experience. Thank you both!
Joe officiated our wedding this past Saturday and he was amazing! He was very attentive throughout our wedding planning process and he was very helpful in any questions we had. We were able to customize our ceremony to exactly what we wanted! Joe was also very helpful after the ceremony to walk us through the process of obtaining our official license. Joe was super affordable and easy to work with. We definitely recommend- Thanks Joe!!
Our wedding took place on May 24, 2019 and we had Rev. Joe Sheridan officiate the ceremony. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and Rev. Joe did an amazing job officiating and making our ceremony feel intimate and special. Rev. Joe was open to our suggestions on how we wanted the ceremony to go and ensured it ran smoothly that day. Thank you!!!
We had and amazing experience with Philly Wedding Co. officiating Preston & Steve's mass wedding. My wife and I couldn't have asked for a better wedding.
My husband and I participated in the mass wedding hosted by Preston and Steve, officiated by the Philly Wedding Company. Joe made the day so incredibly special. You can tell he really cares about the people getting married and wants them to be happy. I couldn’t recommend the Philly Wedding Company more!
When I came to Pat about Marrying my husband and I, I had no idea what to expect. I did not expect to meet someone who was willing to meet me in the cafeteria at my job. He literally made everything as easy as possible with giving us easy ideas to include at our ceremony or making our day go as smooth as possible which it did! Philly Wedding Co. is affordable and they get back to you in a timely manner so you are not sitting there stressing last minute. I was super delayed on finding an officiant that I was so nervous I would be stuck. They saved the day and made the process so easy my husband and I did not have to worry about anything except just to show up. If you are looking for someone who is down to earth, will give you a beautiful ceremony and make your day special use them.
Philly Wedding Co. officiated the Preston and Steve Mass Wedding, that me and my now-husband attended in an attempt to avoid the stressful, big wedding thing - it’s just not our style. And let me tell ya, Philly Wedding Co. was absolutely spectacular! From the meaningful and beautiful speeches given, to how nice and professional they were from start (as in when we arrived to the venue) to the very end (when we had photos taken with our certificate and the officiant himself). I would gladlt recommend them for any and every wedding, and I plan to!!!!!!! Thank you Philly Wedding Co. for making what was supposed to be “the best day of my life”, JUST THAT!!!!!

Thank you so much Brianna! I'm happy you and Thomas were able to be a part of it, and it was such a great experience for everyone! -Joe
Reverend Joe was honestly the best. Philly Wedding Co was super responsive, professional, affordable, and friendly. We had to cancel our original ceremony date due to the weather and they could not have been more accommodating or understanding. Reverend Joe was extremely easy to work with and flexible, I could not have been more pleased! Highly recommend to any one searching in the area.
Joe is wonderful and so easy to work with! Thank you so much for helping to make our wedding day PERFECT! <3

Some people say that Disney World is the happiest place on earth. I beg to differ.
Being a Wedding Officiant, I can honestly say that there is no happier place on earth than being able to stand there with a couple so much in love that they want to spend eternity as “Husband and Wife”. Every ceremony that I perform brings me great joy and happiness.
I am a believer that being in love should not be an expensive proposition. So, if you are willing to share your happy day with me, I promise to give you a truly memorable wedding service. I look forward to hearing from you.
