I found Timothy Greathouse on WeddingWire, and from the very beginning, he was wonderful to work with. When I first contacted him, I heard back within the hour. He was easy to communicate with and immediately came across as knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. As our wedding date approached, Tim checked in with us and made sure everything was confirmed and ready to go. On the day of our wedding, he arrived early, looked very professional, and was genuinely enjoyable to have around on such an important day. Most importantly, he made our wedding vows feel incredibly special and meaningful. We truly appreciated the care he put into making our ceremony memorable. I would absolutely recommend Tim to anyone looking for an Ohio wedding officiant. He made the entire process easy and helped make our wedding day even more special!

If you’re searching for an officiant, stop looking and book Tim—you won’t regret it! My husband and I knew from the beginning that we wanted a ceremony centered on our relationship rather than religion. We also wanted someone with a great personality who could keep our guests engaged while making the ceremony feel genuine and meaningful. After one upbeat and informative phone call with Tim, we knew we had found exactly that. Tim sent us a questionnaire that helped him get to know us as a couple and personalize every aspect of our ceremony. Completing it was one of our favorite parts of wedding planning because it gave us the opportunity to reflect on our relationship and relive so many wonderful memories together. From start to finish, Tim was professional, responsive, organized, and so easy to work with. He made us feel completely at ease and guided us through every step of the process. On our wedding day, he delivered a ceremony that was heartfelt, personal, funny, and perfectly captured who we are as a couple. It was everything we envisioned and more. Since the wedding, countless guests have commented on how incredible our officiant was and have asked us where we found him. We truly cannot recommend Tim enough. He helped create one of the most meaningful moments of our lives, and we are so grateful he was part of our wedding day.

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. Your ceremony will focus on thoughtful, bold insights on love and commitment, and personal stories and details about your relationship - NOT religion. You'll answer a detailed questionnaire that puts you in control of every aspect of your ceremony, and you'll answer insightful personal questions so that I can share some highlights of your romance with your family and friends. Now in my 17th year with over 850 ceremonies officiated, I bring the enthusiasm and eloquence to deliver a deeply moving yet lighthearted ceremony, a relaxed demeanor that will keep you calm and centered, and unparalleled expertise in wedding ceremony craft and theory.

Tim Greathouse

Owner

I could get into all of that classic bio stuff - schooling, work history, favorite pastimes - but here's what's worth knowing about me as your possible officiant. 1. I stumbled into my career as an officiant. In my youth, as my friends began to get married, every ceremony felt the same: deeply religious affairs for my deeply heathen friends, where the couple took a backseat to a sermon. There was no heart, no personal touch, and no effort to connect. On a whim, I became licensed in 2009. Demand soon grew high enough for me to quit my day job and officiate full-time. 2. I L-O-V-E my job. The privilege isn't lost on me—especially compared to the tedious office work of my past. Officiating is the only work I've ever been genuinely eager to do and the only job I would do for free if I had to. (Don't get your hopes up—you still have to pay me!) 3. I do my job a LOT! Since 2010, I have performed over 800 ceremonies. This wealth of experience brings a specific energy to the ceremony: calm, confidence, and reassurance. Inexperienced officiants bring an energy, too—you can guess how it contrasts with mine. 4. Public speaking is my JAM! While glossophobia is a common fear, I have none of it. My knack for speaking developed at summer camp and was sharpened during an eight-year career in public radio. I believe the spoken word, when delivered with passion and purpose, takes the audience on a deeply rewarding emotional journey. 5. I am a nonbeliever with no agenda. As a secular humanist, my life is shaped by science and reason rather than dogma. However, my worldview has no place in your wedding. I stick to three topics: love, commitment, and the couple. A wedding is not the time to espouse religious or political beliefs, even if we happen to share them. Other interests: PC gaming, vintage glass, Minneapolis underground rap, astrophysics, neuroscience, the Dyatlov Pass incident, poetry, Guy Garvey, cats

Instead of doing a typical elopement, my husband and I decided to treat this first ceremony as our civil wedding. However, we didn't want to just go to the courthouse and sign the ...

papers like it was any other day... We decided that even though it wasn't our main ceremony, it should still be special and unique. Hiring an officiant was a huge part of making that moment truly memorable—and Tim totally got it! We got married on a Sunday, and during the ceremony, Tim spoke words that truly surprised us and exceeded all our expectations. On top of that, he was so respectful and sensitive to our faith, giving my husband and me a private moment during the ceremony to pray together as Christians. It was beautiful!

initely worth the time. He wrote us a ceremony that felt completely personal, honoring us as individuals while still showing who we are as a couple. Multiple guests told us it felt like he'd known us for years. On the day itself, he was calm, warm, and had such a welcoming presence that really put us at ease. We got married outdoors at the historic Everett Covered Bridge in Peninsula. Tim made the whole experience feel effortless and deeply meaningful. It really was everything we hoped for. If you're looking for an officiant who will take the time to get to know you and create something unique, it's Tim.

We could not have asked for a better officiant than Tim. My wife was the one who made the connection, and from the moment Tim showed up — in a utili-kilt, combat boots, and bright ...

pink laces — we knew this was going to be exactly our kind of ceremony. He brought so much personality, warmth, and presence to the day without ever making it about himself. What really blew us away, though, were his words. Somehow, Tim managed to speak about our relationship in a way that felt deeply personal, honest, and true — like he had known each of us for years and years. Nothing felt generic or copied-and-pasted. The ceremony felt like us: meaningful, funny, emotional, grounded, and full of love. Tim helped make one of the most important moments of our lives feel sacred without being stiff, personal without being performative, and unforgettable in all the best ways. We are so grateful he was part of our wedding day. Five stars, easily.

Tim was recommended to us by our photographer April G Photography. From the first consultation he laid out exactly how he would officiate the wedding and took into account our pref...

erences. Tim prides himself on getting to know the couples he officiates and sent us a detailed questionnaire which we really enjoyed filling out. From this questionnaire he came up with a couple of fun talking points about the relationship my wife and I have. He was very detail oriented in how he prepared for the ceremony. He had a booklet with his entire program written out from which he spoke. What we really loved about Tim the most was his charisma and ability to capture the attention of the room with his great story telling and literary analysis. My wife and I would recommend Tim Greathouse to anyone religious or not to book him for their wedding. Thank you again so much, you helped make our day perfect!

Tim Greathouse is INCREDIBLE! We got the elopement package for our small, intimate wedding. It was everything we dreamed of and more. He was communicative leading up to the wedding...

, and arrived early to handle paperwork, formally meet us, and discuss what to expect prior to the ceremony. Additionally, because English is not my husband's first language, he was originally very nervous to exchange vows. To ease his nerves, Tim went over the vows with him a few times prior to the ceremony while I got ready. During the ceremony he repeated the lines in smaller chunks as necessary where my husband struggled. Tim made sure both my husband (especially) and I felt very supported and comfortable all the way through. We are beyond thankful and joyous with the amount of grace, patience, and kindness Tim emanates and possesses. All of our guests were equally as impressed as we were. We couldn't have asked for any better for our wedding! Thank you Tim!

To us he was an anchor with his calm demeanor and wise words he knew exactly what to say to keep us not only focused on the task at hand but also to keep us stress free the entire time. To our guests he appeared as an old friend, someone who knew us forever and was able to speak about us with a wit and candor only obtained by years of bonding and adventures. In truth we had never met Tim before we hired him to officiate but his professionalism and talent elevated him beyond such a simple title. I cannot thank him enough, and I cannot recommend him enough.

He arrived on time, was very organized, and helped our day flow smoothly. We’re so grateful for the care and attention he put into making our wedding ceremony personal and memorable.

Before you read my review, go book Tim NOW before it’s too late! It will be the best decision you make (other than saying YES!, of course). Tim officiated our wedding on April 25...

at Waters Edge Vineyard in Louisville, Ohio. My wife and I found Tim online and instantly fell in love with his quirky and thorough website. After calling Tim up, we quickly realized we wasn’t lying—he really does love his job! At that point, we knew that no one else but Tim could officiate our wedding. Tim is an expert in his craft and a skilled orator. More importantly, he is a great guy. Tim will put in the time that your special day deserves. On your big day, he will speak passionately about love and commitment and find a way to share your love story in a way that will make the crowd shed a tear. We had so many guests ask us who Tim was, how we knew him, and whether he had a card. Tim was a hit! And we are so thankful to him for making our wedding day an unforgettable one. I can’t forget to mention his impeccable fashion instincts. 10/10.

We tied the knot twice, with Tim Greathouse! I couldn’t be happier with how our ceremonies turned out thanks to his expertise. I was always anxious about deciding who should offici...

ate our wedding. My husband and I are not religious, and we always looked at each other and cringed a little when weddings would delve into the religious aspect of the ceremony, as it just made us feel weird about what we would possibly have said during those parts for us. So it was important to me to find an officiant who would respect our secular wishes. I reached out to Tim all the way back in 2023 to see what he was about, and what followed was a nearly 30-minute conversation that felt as natural as talking to someone I had known forever. He was personable, kind, and he made me laugh! I immediately felt so comfortable with him; I knew he would be our guy. So we booked with him for our ceremony planned on 11.01.25. Fast forward to 2024: something came up, and my then-fiancé and I needed to elope immediately. I reached out to Tim, and he offered to do the elopement for us, a simpler version of what was to come. It was a beautiful spring day on 05.01.24, made even more special by the words he said to bind us together legally at a park he recommended in private, just the three of us. It was so nice to get to know him a little more through that interaction, and we knew we made the right choice as soon as we met him! Fast forward once more to 2025: it was finally the year of our ceremony! Tim walked us through what it would be like, and as an anxious bride, I felt so much more at ease as soon as he arrived at our rehearsal. It was like he knew exactly how I felt, and he helped me wrangle our family into getting things moving. Then, finally, our day was here, a crisp but clear fall day on 11.01.25. Tim was the calm, happy energy we needed to pull everything together. The ceremony- I couldn’t believe how beautiful it ended up being. He was everything I wanted in an officiant and more. If we got married a third time, I couldn’t imagine anyone trying to fill his shoes! I would recommend Tim to the moon and back. We truly loved having him as a part of our big day!

olutely brought the house down. We had multiple guests ask where we found Tim - saying they got married too young and didn't know you could have a wedding like ours. Another guest said they'd seen another of Tim's ceremonies and were excited as soon as he walked out. For all that Tim shone, the best part is how he made us shine as well as our bridal party and readers. We absolutely could not be happier with our ceremony or Tim's service. All of our friends and family will remember and treasure it. Thanks, Tim. If you are looking to be truly heard and to be given the tools to shine, pick Tim.

ur relationship with little interview time allotted, or how he shoulders all of the work to make sure that you and your love simply have to show up, smile, breathe, (he WILL remind you ALL DAY 🥰) and say “I Do!”, but if you read the rest of the reviews- you already know all of that. What you don’t know is how much he means it when he says he loves his job. You can hear his smile over the phone, you can feel it in his ceremonies, and he makes YOU feel honored to have HIM there on your special day. Tim’s greatness is in his details and the ease at which he carves them. Tim MADE our wedding, and we couldn’t be more greatful! (😅🙃)
