We highly recommend going with Pastor Jeremy as your wedding officiant. We had incredible conversations with Jeremy about all the pieces of our wedding ceremony and the importance of marriage. We filled out questionnaires which he used the craft a perfect ceremony script which brought us and many of our guests to tears! We received so many compliments on our beautiful the ceremony was and that was all due to Jeremy!!
We were very fortunate to have Paster
Dave Hemmerle preside over our ceremony. He was wonderful to work with: friendly, professional, warm and knowledgeable. He took the time to get to know us well, answered all of our questions and helped make our ceremony unique as we hoped it would be. We had people from all over the world and many different religious backgrounds in attendance. He made all feel welcome, provided very moving remarks and the ceremony was beautiful. Highly recommend!
We had Pastor Dave Hemmerle and he was hands down incredible! We had a non-traditional/religious ceremony and he helped create it to feel very personal. He provided us with readings, vow templates, and ring exchange verbiage to choose from which made the process smooth and NOT stressful! But most importantly he added a level of personalization based on the conversations that we had with him. I highly recommend Dave Hemmerle as your Pastor!
I would totally recommend our pastor Jeremy we didn’t have to wait for him, he was on time,
He really made our ceremony Unique with the blessing of god,
Paster Jeremy was the only officiant we wanted for our ceremony. He gave us all the readings I was searching for and was so helpful in process of preparing the readings etc. He was prompt at the venue and dressed appropriate for the occasion. He gave us a beautiful blessing that was original for my husband and I, and truly made the ceremony so special with this thoughtful words. Definitely would recommend him to any of my friends that are getting married. I made several attempts to Upload a photo so you can see how Wonderful he made our ceremony and site won't Upload them.
Pastor Dave was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding ceremony. From the start, he was incredibly friendly and easygoing, making us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the planning process. His sense of humor added a special touch to the ceremony, making it both meaningful and fun. He ensured that everything ran smoothly on the big day, and his professionalism and warmth truly made our ceremony unforgettable. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant!
Jeremy did a phenomenal job making sure that our ceremony was seamless for our big day! He was very well prepared and organized, which made it very easy for us to plan! I have also had the opportunity to see Jeremy in action before our wedding, as he married my best friends, which was an absolute beautiful experience! We cannot thank Jeremy enough for his time and energy, commitment, dedication, and professionalism!
If you are on the lookout for an experienced officiant who will help you craft the most unique ceremony that captures your love story no matter your religious and spiritual views, then look no further because Pastor Jeremy is the officiant for you! From our first video chat, we knew that we wanted Pastor Jeremy to officiate our Exchange of Vows Ceremony for our Indian/American fusion wedding. He was so easy to talk to and provided us with all the materials and guidance we needed to plan our perfect ceremony. As the Big Day approached, Pastor Jeremy gave us a run-down of what to expect and provided us with a uniquely tailored manuscript of the ceremony to review, both of which made us feel completely prepared and put us at ease going into our wedding day. Not only does Pastor Jeremy have incredible organizational and planning skills, but he is also an AMAZING public speaker. The ceremony flowed effortlessly and was everything we dreamed of, full of love, laughter, and many happy tears. Afterward, we received endless compliments from our guests on how beautiful the ceremony was and how amazing our officiant was. The ceremony was so personalized that some wondered if we had known Pastor Jeremy for years before the wedding. He lived up to every single wonderful review we read when we initially came across his page on the Knot. We are forever grateful to have had Pastor Jeremy officiate our ceremony and would recommend him to any couples looking for an incredible officiant to help them craft a beautiful and personalized ceremony.
Jeremy Ziegler is everything you could hope for in an officiant- professional and organized, but also warm, personable, charismatic and well-spoken. Our meetings helped him get to know us better and made ceremony planning simple and straightforward. Jeremy brings a lot of experience and tons of resources to prepare a ceremony tailored to you and your future spouse. During the ceremony, Jeremy speaks with warmth, humor and wisdom. Jeremy's preparation, attention to the unique story of each couple, excellent speaking style and kindness throughout the process make him an officiant you and your wedding guests will love!
My wife and I were married a few weeks ago. We met Jeremy at his church. We decided that we wanted Jeremy to marry us. Jeremy worked with us from the beginning and made everything run smoothly. Jeremy did an amazing job and we are so happy with him.
Pastor Dave performed our wedding ceremony, and it was a wonderful experience from the earliest stages of planning right up until the end of the ceremony. Pastor Dave is so warm and personable that you feel at ease from the moment you first speak with him. He performed a beautiful ceremony for us that was exactly what we wanted. We would not have changed one thing! The personal touches that he adds are absolutely perfect and make for an unforgettable experience. We could not recommend him highly enough!
Working with Jeremy was so stress free. He gave us all the tools we need and followed up with multiple calls. Our actually ceremony came together so perfectly. We had so many guests complimenting after! If you are looking for an overall amazing officiant, stop here!
We can’t thank Pastor Jeremy enough for making our day so special! He is great to work with and he personalized our ceremony in a way that we felt like he knew us for a long time. He is kind, attentive to details, organized and a great public speaker! My family was crying with his beautiful words and friends were giving lots of compliments about our ceremony. He showed people how our love is in a fun, lighthearted and beautiful way, exactly how we wanted. We definitely recommend him. Thanks again for making our dream come true. Fernanda & Brian
We worked with Pastor Dave for our wedding ceremony and we could not have been happier. He was so patient and friendly and took the time to really get to know us. This made for a beautiful, very personalized, intimate ceremony. Our guests are still talking about it! Pastor Dave is the BEST!!!
I cannot give Pastor Jeremy enough praise! Jeremy was the officiant at my sister-in-laws wedding, which he was absolutely incredible at. When the time came for my fiancé and I to pick an officiant, we knew it had to be Jeremy. From the start Jeremy made us feel so at ease with the whole process. From the first zoom meeting, to the end of the ceremony we knew we were in the best hands. Jeremy has a very calming presence and it brings such a special element to the ceremony. A week after our wedding, guests are still contacting my husband and I saying our ceremony was the best they had ever been to, with the best officiant. We cannot thank Jeremy enough for being apart of our perfect day!
Pastor Dave was amazing to work with. We enjoyed the whole process from beginning to end! We couldn’t have asked for a better ceremony and it’s all thanks to Pastor Dave! All of our guests truly enjoyed the words he shared and everyone felt like he could have known us forever.
Pastor Jeremy did a really great job! We wanted a ceremony that was a mix of traditional and light-hearted and he 100% delivered this. He is a great speaker and made the entire process an easy one. He provided us everything we needed for our ceremony including examples of vows, readings and ring exchange. He walked us through every step and assured us that everything will run smoothly (which it did!). He was an absolute pleasure to work with and I highly recommend him!
Our ceremony was the most important part of the day for us and Jeremy made ours so special. He is prompt, communicative, and made the process of planning our ceremony really easy. He made us feel really comfortable and gave us many resources. He is a wonderful public speaker and is quite engaging. Our ceremony was a true reflection of who we are, our values, and what we wanted to convey about our relationship — Jeremy made that all possible. Thank you Jeremy!
Pastor Jeremy created my absolute dream wedding. He was SO lovely to work with prior to the ceremony and you can tell he truly cares about each couple he works with. He was just as detailed orientated as I was which was awesome. Many times people talk about your DJ or food but EVERYONE has talked to me about how amazing my ceremony was. My grandfather even came over and asked where he was at the reception because he thought he was one of our friends (that is how personalized he made our ceremony). I am so grateful to have had such a heartfelt and personal ceremony and it was truly all because of Pastor Jeremy.
Stop your officiant search right now because you are not going to find anyone better than Pastor Jeremy. From our first meeting on FaceTime to our wedding day, Jeremy made us feel so calm and confident that everything was going to come together perfectly, and it did! Jeremy provides you with everything you need to plan your perfect ceremony, including guidance on readings, vows, etc. He makes himself available to answer any questions as they come up, and provides advice on anything you may need help with. He also spends time getting to know you as a couple, which makes for a super personalized ceremony. We received so many compliments from our guests about how personal it was and that they enjoyed learning about our relationship, definitely not something you get at every wedding! We can not say enough positive things about Pastor Jeremy, he's just a cool dude that will make your wedding day unique and memorable, and he is a joy to work with.
Pastor Jeremy was our officiant for our wedding and we couldn't have picked a better individual to marry us.
Due to COVID, we didn't have the opportunity to met Pastor Jeremy in person before our wedding; it was only over zoom. Although that is the case, you would have never known. We had multiple zoom calls with him, and he provided us with any and all documents and instructions that we could need.
On our wedding day, Pastor Jeremy spoke as though he knew us for years. He was funny, personable, organized, calming, and extremely charismatic. He will tailor your wedding to be the exact vision you desire while helping you however you need along the way. We were so happy and lucky to have him as our officiant and we would recommend him to anyone.
Highly recommend Pastor Jeremey! He is kind, caring and professional from our first call to the big day. He was the perfect fit addition to our wedding ceremony. He told our story just as we envisioned. Great person to work with! Could not be more thankful.
Pastor Jeremy was the best! He gave us such a beautiful ceremony that was completely personalized to us as a couple. He got to know us from the beginning, listened to our stories about how we met, how we got together, and how we've grown as a family. He was able to convey everything during our ceremony so uniquely and told such an amazing story to our guests, and they loved it! Thank you so much for being a part of our special day!
Great experience, works with you on suggestions and customize ceremony so well. We are blended culture and he did a fantastic job capturing the different traditions all while keeping it light and fun.
We had a backyard wedding and weren't sure where to begin when it came to choosing an officiant. Jeremy was truly wonderful every step of the way. He helped us curate a ceremony that we felt reflected us as a couple. Many of our guests told us afterwards that not only was the ceremony beautiful, but that they felt they got to know us better as a couple because of what Jeremy said. He made it special and kept us calm throughout - highly recommend!
We were very lucky to have had Pastor Dave Hemmerle as our officiant for our wedding! He made our ceremony everything we could’ve imagined and more. He made our ceremony loving, humorous and most of all memorable for us as well as our guests. Pastor Dave listened to any concerns/questions we had and made us feel comfortable and heard throughout the entire process. He took the time to get to know us as a couple and that was able to show during the ceremony which we loved to make it more memorable! He was able to guide us through the entire process from start to finish so there was no stress. A lot of our guests also told us how great Dave was and that our ceremony was perfect. We knew we could trust Dave to make our ceremony perfect and he did just that and much more. He is a very kind person and having him be there for our special day is something we will always remember. My husband and I thank you SO MUCH!
We were very fortunate to have Pastor Dave as our wedding pastor. The ceremony was absolutely everything we could have wanted and more. Pastor Dave was so great and everyone throughout the whole night couldn’t stop complimenting the ceremony. It was amazing, made everyone laugh, brought people to tears and we couldn’t have had a better pastor or ceremony. We are so happy with how everything went and we couldn’t recommend Pastor Dave enough. Our ceremony was light, personal, intimate and just perfect.
Where do I even begin? Jeremy was our officiant for our wedding in February 2022. He made our ceremony more special than we ever could have dreamed of. We wanted a mix of sentimental yet also lightheartedness and that’s exactly what it was! Jeremy was professional, prepared. As far as planning the ceremony he couldn’t have made it any easier for us. He walked us through each part of the ceremony and guided us in a variety of choices and different options. He took the time to get to know us and our story, which then translated so beautifully into our ceremony. Immediately following the ceremony we had so many guests come up to us and say what an amazing job Jeremy did and how connected they felt during our ceremony. There are so many parts of wedding planning that are stressful and overwhelming, don’t let this be one of them. If your looking for an officiant, you found him! Thank you so much Jeremy for a ceremony my husband and I will cherish and remember for a lifetime!
It was a pleasure working with Jeremy! He provided lots of guidance and invaluable resources for planning our ceremony, and worked with us to incorporate elements from my cultural heritage. We're still getting compliments about how heartfelt and intimate everything was.
Jeremy officiated our wedding in May 2021. He was absolutely amazing! All of our guest complimented how great he was after our wedding. He communicated well and spent time getting to know us through Zoom meetings. He made sure he understood the vision we had for our wedding ceremony and executed it perfectly! We got to customize how we wanted our ceremony, but he threw in a couple surprises which we loved. Jeremy took care of mailing our marriage license too. The entire process went seamlessly. We loved working with Jeremy and highly recommend him!
Pastor Jeremy married my husband and I two weeks ago and everyone is still talking about how wonderful he was! He took the time to get to know us and made the ceremony very personalized. The ceremony was a perfect mix of heartfelt, fun and beautiful. He captured our love story perfectly. We can't thank Pastor Jeremy enough for making our day so incredibly special.
Thank you again, Tori & Kyle
Our wedding was officiated by Pastor Dave! We had such a great experience with Pastor Dave from the beginning to end. He always had a huge smile on his face and made us feel calm and relaxed from the first day. He's super responsive to any inquiries and very organized about what he needs from us. The day of, he wrote a very personal introduction of us, the couple, at the altar. It really set the intimate and loving tone of the rest of the evening. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant :)
Pastor Jeremy was the best of the best. To start things off, he arrived early. We were nervous, and he made sure to make us feel calm before the ceremony started. He checked in with the DJ and the venue to make sure the mic and everything was good to go. We had received the order on how things were going to go prior to the wedding, but he also broke it down once more to us in person. From the first person walking in- till the moment we said "I Do".
His words for us were AMAZING! We've known him for several years. He asked us to do a little survey to get to know us as a couple a little further. He asked us to trust him with what he would say. We didn't get to hear his words before the ceremony, but we're glad we trusted him with this. It was very emotional, funny, and witty all at the same time. People are still talking about how much they loved the ceremony.
At the end of the ceremony, we signed all the paperwork that needs to go to court. He will personally mail it out for you, but we decided to do it ourselves since we can now upload the document (due to covid).
We're so glad Pastor Jeremy was available on our wedding day. He can get booked rather quickly. If you have a date set, make sure to book him early. It will be worth it!
Can I give more stars? We are so happy we found him. Everyone can’t stop talking about how amazing the ceremony was. It was so personal and everyone said it was the best ceremony they ever been too. I couldn’t thank him enough for everything. He is so amazing in helping us pick out the vows , the readings and the we loved the questions we had to fill out. We can’t wait to see our video to watch it all over again.
Thank you so much for making us having an amazing and beautiful day.
Pastor Jeremy was an easy pick since he is our Pastor already, however, that said, we couldn't be happier with his officiating at our wedding. It was incredibly meaningful to have him oversee this chapter in our lives, since it was in his church that we met!
Throughout the whole process he was easy to communicate with, very organized, helped to get our ceremony mapped out and was excellent at keeping everyone on task the day of. The message was personalized and very well thought out, along with a great sense of humor. Beyond all that, he's a fantastic dancer and definitely got our wedding crowd hyped up at the reception! I would highly recommend Jeremy for your wedding.
Jeremy was awesome! We interviewed a bunch of officiants, but none of them really "clicked" with us until we met with Jeremy. He has a very warm personality, speaks well, and we felt that he really understood what we were looking for in our ceremony. Our ceremony was perfect - it was a great mixture of personal, humorous, and romantic, which is exactly what we wanted. He was also very flexible with us when we had to make some changes due to COVID, which helped reduce stress on our part. I would definitely recommend him to others. Thank you, Jeremy!
Where do we begin? Pastor Jeremy was incredible. Our guests are still talking about him till this day when conversations about our wedding ceremony come up. He made our ceremony personable and upbeat. Thank you again Pastor Jeremy making the planning process easy for us. Thank you for all of your patience (especially during this pandemic.) For your guidance, and for officiating the most perfect wedding ceremony we could ever ask for!! We are forever grateful.
My husband and I were married by Pastor Dave Hemmerle this past weekend. As we began planning our ceremony in January, prior to virtually meeting Pastor Dave, we had a difficult time imagining that a person who does not already know us could truly and successfully capture our essence and love. However, the polar opposite happened, making our ceremony our favorite part of our special day. Pastor Dave's warm delivery, relaxed approach, positive presence, big smile and meaningful words brought tears and laughs to us and our family. He made the process seamless, made great recommendations on ceremony aspects and took the time to get to know, understand and capture my husband and I. We will forever treasure Pastor Dave's support and feel very blessed that we got as lucky as we did for such an important moment in our lives. Thank you Pastor Dave!
Pastor Jeremy made our wedding ceremony so incredibly special and personal. So happy he was part of our big day!
This review is for Pastor Dave Hemmerle. We are so grateful for the opportunity to meet Pastor Dave and have him officiate our wedding! He truly made our ceremony so special. We really appreciated how much he got to know us, even if over phone/Zoom, and how he helped us to incorporate some traditional and non-traditional elements into our ceremony. He was so informative and helpful throughout the process, and performed such a beautiful ceremony! We'd highly recommend him for your wedding. Thank you again, Pastor Dave!
Pastor Jeremy is a GEM! I had to look for an officiant a little less than 2 months from our wedding date due to COVID. I spoke with a few people who I knew from the start were not a match for us. From our initial conversation, Pastor Jeremy was super friendly and made everything so easy for us. We felt like Pastor Jeremy had known us for years. He was able to provide a custom ceremony that was absolutely perfect for us. I'm so glad I came across Pastor Jeremy on The Knot, I couldn't have found someone better to officiate of wedding. Thank you so much for everything!
Jeremy was amazing! There really are no other words for it. So happy we found him here on The Knot. We immediately connected with him upon our first call and knew he would be the one to marry us. He guided us through this special time, was completely thorough and responsive to any questions we had. He left no stone unturned. We really enjoyed how he got to know us as a couple and transform our story into our ceremony. It was truly a special and memorable day for sure. So happy we chose him and we would definitely recommend him for your ceremony.
We hired Jeremy for our 2020 wedding that eventually got postponed to 2021, but we still worked with Jeremy to have us legally married this year as well. Couldn't be happier with our experience or have asked for more from Jeremy. His professionalism and promptness took the stress and "guessing" out of one of the most important factors for a wedding.
Pastor Jeremy helped us to create the most beautiful wedding ceremony! He incorporated all elements we were looking for and really individualized the ceremony into a unique, fitting and perfect display. He took the time to help guide us through the planning elements while learning about us as a couple. Above all.. he is extremely well spoken!
We had countless people tell us how much they loved hearing our story and what a great job Pastor Jeremy did! He was a big hit with all family and friends, and we couldn’t have been happier to have him as part of our special day. I highly recommend using Pastor Jeremy, you won’t be disappointed :)
We had Pastor Dave for our wedding ceremony since Pastor Jeremy was unavailable (we planned our wedding in a month - talk about stressful). I couldn't have been more pleased! He was very professional, friendly, and accommodating! He was so easy to work with, and even provided us with some marriage license info.
What I loved most is how he worked with us closely to ensure our ceremony was exactly what we were hoping it would be. I wanted to ensure God was a big part of our wedding, and he incorporated the perfect Bible verses and anecdotes into the ceremony that gave it the reverential yet light-hearted vibe we were going for. He also made it personal to both me and my husband, sharing stories about how we met and why we love each other, which made my lip quiver as I held back tears. Afterwards, my family and friends said they loved how personal the ceremony was.
I have no regrets having Pastor Dave marry us! He was wonderful!
Jeremy was recommended by our venue. We had an in person meeting and he was so nice and knowledgeable from the get go. When COVID 19 hit, we were able to have a few other meetings through zoom. He gave us a lot of information and choices for our ceremony, which was super helpful. He answered all of our questions throughout the process with care and in good time. He was always so positive throughout the process, especially when others were not always so positive.
Everything with Jeremy went so smoothly. He is so professional and has a lot of experience. We received a lot of positive feedback from our guests following the ceremony.
Getting married during a pandemic is hard, but Jeremy maid it easy. He helped us build the ceremony we wanted and then made sure everything went perfect the day of the wedding. We couldn't have made a better choice, and we've already received so many compliments on how much people liked Jeremy and the ceremony.
Pastor Jeremy made our ceremony something we will never forget. Our guests raved about our ceremony including how intimate it was. Guests thought we knew Pastor Jeremy for years, but in reality we had only two Skype conversations customizing our entire ceremony. He really listened to what we wanted and couldn't have asked for a more beautiful and sentimental ceremony! It was truly our favorite part of our special day.
Pastor Jeremy officiated my November 16th, 2019 wedding and everything from start to finish was simple and stress free. Pastor Jeremy is efficient, a great communicator, and has awesome resources and tips to make planning the ceremony very simple and easy. We had a few special elements that we wanted to incorporate into our ceremony and Pastor Jeremy helped us plan how it would all work best. On the day of everything went smoothly and was exactly how we envisioned. Many thanks!
Picking an officiant can be hard. But when we met with Jeremy, we knew he was the one to officiate our wedding. In the beginning, we had no idea where to start with planning a ceremony. Jeremy gave us many resources for easy planning, and to be able to make our ceremony a unique one and have exactly what we wanted. Everyone at our wedding could not say anything more about how beautiful and amazing our ceremony was, because of him. Even with a full detailed manuscript, he surprised us with laughs, happy tears, and the most memorable experience. We would recommend Jeremy to ANYONE looking for an officiant for their wedding. Thank you Jeremy!!!
Can't recommend Pastor Jeremy enough! From our first call with him, my (now!) husband and I knew that we found our officiant. Jeremy helped us through the planning process and offered a ton of resources and helpful direction to plan our ceremony. He was completely open through the process and reassured us that all that mattered to him was creating a ceremony unique to us as a couple, and he did just that! When it finally came to our wedding day, Jeremy delivered a beautiful, light hearted yet sincere ceremony that really set the tone for the rest of our celebration. Our family members and friends were touched by his words and so were we! His ability to get to know us in a short amount of time and still create a ceremony that felt warm and loving, shows his experience, professionalism and kind hearted personality. 10/10, book Jeremy!
Pastor Jeremy is a natural! He knows when to lead and direct and yet he can let you lead and turn your thoughts and ideas into reality. Jeremy will make you feel comfortable, calm and cool despite all the nervousness and craziness that your wedding day will bring. He knows his stuff and can take your vision and blend it with typical ceremony elements and develop a masterpiece. Jeremy brings some humor to the officiant role and will have your guests feeling like he is their pastor. We can't say enough about Pastor Jeremy and we recommend him highly.
Pastor Jeremy, hands down is the best of the best. We are so happy how perfect our ceremony was. It was everything we could have imagined. Jeremy wants to get to know you as a couple and was so professional and friendly. We felt as if we knew Pastor Jeremy for a while. We wanted a little of everything to being intimate, sweet, short and traditional. It was literally everything we could ask for. You will not regret choosing Pastor Jeremy. He is the most passionate person. He will give you the most perfect and dreamy ceremony you ever would want. Thanks so much Jeremy, you were awesome and we are so happy and grateful that we had you on our special day!
Pastor Jeremy Ziegler married my husband and I on December 8, 2018 and we couldn't be more happy how well it went! We got many compliments about how good Jeremy was and how he made the ceremony flow so well and that he was funny! Everybody loved him. We were so relaxed throughout the ceremony, we felt like our friend was marrying us. We met with Jeremy two times before our wedding, lots of emails too, he really paid attention to detail and was able to get a good sense of us before the ceremony which was so nice! I would recommend him to anybody who wants a caring, nice, fun and great officiant! Thank you Jeremy!
Jeremy was excellent and professional from start to finish, highly recommend. He took the time to get to know us, and he created a ceremony that was able to accommodate a wide variety of people, cultures, and beliefs. Really just did a tremendous job making our ceremony emotional and special.
If we could give more than 5 stars we would - Pastor Jeremy was everything we could have hoped for and more! Pastor Jeremy was a delight to work with from the very start, quick to respond and extremely flexible on when to connect. We were not able to meet in person before our big day, but instead communicated through email and Skype which was perfect in today's digital age.
In these meetings, Pastor Jeremy was always prepared and supplied us with more than enough material to help tailor our ceremony to our wants, beliefs, and personal desires. At first, my wife and I were not sure what kind of ceremony we wanted and what to expect, but with Pastor Jeremy's step by step guidelines and questionnaires it made planning simple and stress free.
As for the wedding day itself, Pastor Jeremy was cool and collective from the moment he arrived. He worked seamlessly with the venue to make sure everything was set up correctly and efficiently rehearsed the plan with us and the bridal party before starting. He was especially wonderful in helping de-stress me, the groom, as I became a bit overwhelmed with the little nuances every wedding will have.
The ceremony itself was more than perfect. My wife and I elected to have a non religious service and Pastor Jeremy knocked it out of the park. He wore a dapper suit that fit our theme, officiated using an iPad, and did not stutter or have any awkward pauses/moments throughout. Because of his preparation & materials, plus the questionnaires we filled out, Pastor Jeremy was able to include the perfect amount of humor and personal anecdotes that made our ceremony truly wonderful.
We have received endless compliments of how perfect everything was and asked how long we have known Pastor Jeremy for because he delivered such a personal and exceptional ceremony (they were always amazed that we had not met previously).
If you need an officiant look no further - Pastor Jeremy is the perfect choice and we recommend his services to anyone and everyone!
Hiring Jeremy as our officiant was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. He was not only intentional about getting to know us as a couple but he also set out to create a ceremony that was unique and meaningful to us and our guests in attendance. He gave us the right resources to craft the structure of our ceremony, select the readings and prepare our personal vows. When it came to our big day, he was a calming presence to us all and even talked to our parents so that they knew what to expect before the ceremony began. Jeremy was so outstanding in his delivery that many guests mentioned him as the best officiant that they've ever experienced at a wedding ceremony. My dad was also so impressed by Jeremy that he gave Jeremy a shoutout during his toast at the reception. If you're looking for an officiant who is warm, funny, professional and grounded, look no further.
Jeremy did such an amazing job officiating our wedding this past September. He officiated for my husbands cousin a few years ago, and then last year for my sister-in-law. We loved his style, and decided to use him for our wedding. He is super friendly and all around a great guy. He really cares about your ceremony and is very organized as well. Jeremy was such a joy to work with, we are so lucky that our family members recommended him! We are beyond happy with how our ceremony went, it was perfect!
Jeremy was everything we could have asked for in a wedding pastor. Wedding guests usually comment on the reception but our guests couldn't stop talking about what a great ceremony we had and how it depicted our story. We owe this fully to Jeremy since he made sure he was well vested in our story and created a unique and special ceremony that was perfect for us. Several of our guests thought he was a close family friend or relative because of his ability to create a personal connection. My husband and I come from two very different foreign cultures and Jeremy helped us form a ceremony that was unique yet blended a few elements from each culture. Thank you Jeremy for making our day special and always being there to calm us down when we needed it!
Pastor Jeremy was a huge part of our wedding. He went above and beyond to make sure our day was as special as possible. It was very important that we had a ceremony that was personal, intimate and a blessing for our friends and family who attended, and that's exactly what Pastor Jeremy made it. Thank you! We are forever grateful.
We immediately knew we wanted Jeremy to officiate our wedding after speaking with him on the phone. He is well spoken and has a good sense of humor. Jeremy helped us create the most perfect ceremony that was heartfelt and unique to us as a couple. Not to mention, our guests raved about the ceremony afterwards. Highly recommend Pastor Jeremy!!!
I could go on and on about Jeremy. He was hands down one of the best parts of our wedding. My fiancé and I are mixed faiths and we’re interested in a non-religious ceremony that would truly represent our humor, personality and love for one another. Jeremy
nailed it! He used our own words written to one another to create a personalized service for us. Our guests were laughing, smiling and at some points crying happy tears. It felt like we had known Jeremy for years. Not to mention we were told multiple times that our ceremony was the best ceremony people had been apart of— EVER. It was absolute magic and I cannot thank Jeremy enough. He is a rare find and a pleasure to work with. You cannot go wrong with choosing Jeremy!
Stephanie & Andrew Wilen
Jeremy was so amazing ! Everyone couldn’t stop talking about how amazing he did our ceremony during the reception ! Even my friends (young mid to late 20s crowd) were even asking how I found him ! He made our ceremony very personal and different and did everything we had asked for ! He came early made sure we felt comfortable and even gave us each advice before the wedding even started ! He even found my father to make sure he’s calm and knows what to do ! I wish i can give more stars !
Highly recommended!!! The reviews DO NOT lie. Jeremy provided the most incredible and intimate ceremony which was a true reflection of my husband and I. We were married in Tarrytown on a Friday evening. Due to the fact that I am a procrastinator, I ended up reaching out to Jeremy with little time to go before our wedding. With all smiles and confidence, Jeremy reassured us that we would have the ceremony that we had always dreamed of. I cannot explain how breathtaking our ceremony was: the timing, the professionalism, the down to earth personality, the deep truth and power in his words, the love that he demonstrated aloud on our behalf, among many other things. Jeremy was amazing at communication and politely reminded us when we needed to submit information to him. As stated in other reviews, guests did ask how long we knew Jeremy and that he knew our story so well. Truth is, I felt the same way, I had felt that we’d known Jeremy for quite some time even though we had only met a short time before. Please take a chance and reach out to Jeremy. I promise, you will not be disappointed. Thank you for guiding us as we began our journey together as husband and wife.
Booking Pastor Jeremy was one of the absolute best decisions we made for our wedding!! We are so thankful and glad that we worked with him, and he truly made our vision and our dream ceremony come to life. He was incredible to work with throughout the whole planning process -- responsive, professional, courteous and so receptive to our ideas and wishes. We didn't have to worry about a thing working with him - he completely took care of planning the whole ceremony and crafted exactly what we wanted -- a ceremony that was personal, sincere, emotional, authentic, intimate and engaging. He was a dream, and his words and personality during our ceremony set the perfect and most amazing vibe for the rest of our wedding!! So many of our guests complimented us on the ceremony -- so many said it brought them to tears and was one of the best and most beautiful ceremonies they had ever seen! Not to mention Jeremy himself is an amazing public speaker -- he was so at ease and calm, it was incredible. He also played a significant role in calming our nerves before the ceremony -- talking to us right before and coaching us throughout the whole thing. We honestly now feel like he is a trusted friend!! We loved him, and booking him for your wedding is a decision you won't regret!!
Jeremy officiated our December wedding, and he was the absolute best! He is so organized and on top of everything and made our lives so much easier. We were so impressed with Jeremy during the planning process. All of the documents that he has prepared with vows and readings were extremely helpful. He did a great job of making us feel at ease during the rehearsal, and the ceremony itself was beautiful. We received so many compliments on how wonderful it was. If you are reading this, look no further! Jeremy will not disappoint in making your special day one to remember!
Jeremy is simply incredible. We had such an outstanding experience having Jeremy officiate our wedding this past August. I think it's important to mention that we interviewed several officiants in the area, even some that were highly recommended to us and we ended up finding Jeremy on our own and he out-shined all the others we had previously spoken to. From our initial meeting to our wedding day - the entire experience was smooth and stress-free. I always had complete confidence and trust in Jeremy to deliver a thoughtful and meaningful ceremony for our wedding. Jeremy is very experienced and it really shines through during the ceremony. Not only that, he's just an all around down-to-earth, nice guy. Prior to our wedding Jeremy talked to us about what we had in mind for the ceremony and had both myself and my fiance complete separate questionnaires about our ceremony as well as personal details about each other and our relationship. It is through these questionnaires that Jeremy pulled together our ceremony into something unique and personal. To be straight forward - he knocked it out of the park. Our ceremony was special, emotional and all our guests were able to hear about our love story as if Jeremy personally knew us for years. Jeremy has done many weddings and it shows in his confidence to deliver, but he was also able to present a one-of-a-kind ceremony that was tailored to us. Hearing Jeremy speaking in the background of our wedding video makes me emotional every time I watch it. His voice is perfect for public speaking and he delivered a very well put together service for us. We are incredibly happy with Jeremy's work and I highly recommend him to all other couples in search of an officiant. I promise you will be very happy with Jeremy!
Jeremy was the best from the start of when we reached out to him till the day of our wedding. He understood the type of wedding we wanted and gave excellent advise on how to make it even better. He was also very flexible, responsive and easy to walk to, felt like a true friend. The day of the wedding he even help coordinate and make sure everything ran smoothly! We definitely recommend Jeremy to any couple who wants to have great time and lasting memory of their ceremony. He made ours unforgettable.
Pastor Jeremy will always hold a very special place in my heart. My husband and I had a unique situation - my family was Catholic and his was Eastern Orthodox, but I personally identified as a non-denominational Christian, but didn't belong to a church (Complicated!). We went back and forth for months about what to do, and it was a difficult decision to make, especially since the process to get approval for marriage through the Catholic church was long and arduous. Then I called Pastor Jeremy and everything immediately clicked. His kindness, empathy, joy, and passion for his calling as a pastor was apparent and he completely understood our faith background. We met at Starbucks to organize the ceremony details and it felt so comfortable knowing that he had everything organized to the finest details. With the seemingly endless list of wedding planning to-do's, I never once had to do anything for the ceremony that felt like a "task." He made the process and journey fun and meaningful with his user-friendly forms and guidebook. I had the confidence knowing he was going to make our ceremony specifically personal, special, and very unique to us, and that's exactly how it turned out. During the wedding ceremony I repeatedly whispered "Wow!" because I was so blown away by his message. I'll never forget his words and just how effortlessly he made our ceremony perfect and incorporated elements that were important to us. Pastor Jeremy is truly one of a kind and I'm forever grateful to him!
Pastor Jeremy was awesome from start to finish. We met him in person and he explained his process and we knew we wanted to use him as our wedding officiant right away. He was kind, engaging and enthusiastic and that came across beautifully during the ceremony. Everyone raved about how personal the ceremony was and thought Jeremy was great! I would definitely suggest rehearsing with him as well. He ran the rehearsal the night before and the ceremony the next day went off without a hitch!
Pastor Jeremy exceeded all of our expectations! From our very first conversation he made us feel completely at ease with his professionalism and easy-going nature. You can tell that he really enjoys what he does and has a lot of experience. We loved that his priority was to make us feel as comfortable and prepared as possible. From start to finish Pastor Jeremy was prompt in his replies and left no stone unturned. Since neither my husband nor I were local, we communicated primarily through Skype - we really appreciated his flexibility and willingness to make our meetings as personal as possible. He really worked to get to know us and incorporate our love story into the ceremony as if he had known us for years. Our favorite part was the surprise incorporated into the ceremony where both the bride and groom sent private emails with some of their favorite things about the other person and it is incorporated into the ceremony - something I really looked forward to and will treasure always! During the ceremony he really took the lead to help everything go so smoothly and injected some humor into the ceremony to help us feel so relaxed and at ease. Our ceremony could not have been any better and we really owe it all to him! Thank you Pastor Jeremy!!
If I could give Jeremy 10 stars I would! Our wedding ceremony was an absolute dream come true! We got married in New York but currently live in Washington. Being remote, Jeremy had the flexibility to meet with us via FaceTime and Skype accommodating our time zone differences. The face to face was phenomenal as it gave Jeremy an opportunity to get to know us better and go through all the details of our ceremony. Additionally, we had a request to include my father in the ceremony, so Jeremy personally reached out to introduce himself and go through all the necessary details with my father. In terms of timeline things honestly couldn't have gone smoother. About a month out from our big day Jeremy sent us the entire ceremony manuscript covering EVERYTHING! He made us feel confident and prepared that the day would be perfect. More importantly he added his own touch on our wedding day that was personal to both my husband and I. After the wedding we had numerous guest ask us how long we've known Jeremy because they were blown away by not only the flow of the ceremony but also the personal touch that Jeremy added. It honestly felt as if he had known us for years. It was really special and it couldn't have gone any better. Thank you so much Jeremey for officiating our wedding and making it the best day of our lives!
Jeremy was great. He not only made the ceremony very personalized, he also saved us when he noticed the guest chairs were arranged too close to the windows to allow proper space for the wedding party, and proactively worked with the vendor coordinator to get it fixed.
The ceremony had such a wonderful energy and Jeremy was an excellent maestro handling it. He tailored the ceremony to us perfectly- it was happy, there were some laughs, it wasn't too long. Just what we wanted. If we had wanted a more serious tone with more religious aspects than we had, he easily could have done that.
Most of our vendors were 'they were great, but.....'. Not Jeremy. I have only excellent things to say about him. Very nice, and we definitely, strongly recommend!
I am so extremely happy that I chose Jeremy to officiate our wedding! We planned our NY wedding from CT, so we never officially met Jeremy face - to - face until our wedding day. Even so, I could not have felt any more confident or at ease about Jeremy officiating our wedding ceremony. My husband and I Skyped with Jeremy several times in the months leading up to our wedding and it was clear during those meetings that Jeremy is a true professional at what he does. He sent us a manuscript a few months before our wedding, so we had an exact outline of how the ceremony would go. On the day of our wedding, Jeremy met us in the bridal suite and went over the entire manuscript with us. I was still nervous since we had not had a rehearsal because of the venue being booked the night before. Jeremy told me to follow his lead and that the ceremony would go smoothly. Well, he was right! Jeremy gave us cues throughout the ceremony to direct us as to what we were supposed to do next and the ceremony was PERFECT! What I loved the most about the ceremony was that Jeremy made it personal to my husband and I by talking about how we had met, what we love about each other, and what we are most looking forward to in the future. Our guests commented on how much they loved how personal the ceremony was and how excellent Jeremy was at officiating it. I am so thankful that we found Jeremy....he helped make our wedding day so incredibly special!
Pastor Jeremy did our wedding at Tarrytown House Estate on June 10th 2017 and he nailed it! all of our guests were commenting on how personal our ceremony was, and asked how long we had known Jeremy for! (truth be told we had a phone call and a meeting with Jeremy before our wedding and that's it!) He really took the time in the two meetings to find out as much as possible about my husband and I, and boy did it show in our ceremony. I was EXTREMELY nervous about crying too much during the ceremony but Jeremy really coached us through the ceremony (while it was happening!) so we didn't get too overwhelmed!
The greatest feature of Jeremy is he is a choose your own adventure type of pastor! He will make there ceremony of your dreams, with prayer, without prayer... with a candle lighting, without! He really listens to what you want, and makes it a reality! I could go on and on about Jeremy but bottom line is, Jeremy nailed our ceremony and made a special day that much more special!
Jeremy officiated our wedding this summer and we could not have asked for a better experience! He is very organized and guided us through each and every step. He was flexible with his schedule and even met with us via Skype the first time. He provided us with his recommendations and feedback based on experience anytime we felt unsure about our next step from selecting a reading to the proper processional order. The ceremony was exactly what we asked for - lighthearted yet contemporary ; funny yet touching! Our guests couldn't stop telling us what a lovely ceremony it was and we are so grateful for him capturing us and sharing it with our guests.
Pastor Jeremy did an amazing job for my ceremony. My ceremony was beautiful and filled with love. Not only did Pastor Jeremy provide us with a script of the ceremony beforehand but he constantly checked in to make sure both me and my husband completed everything we needed to on time ( I.e marriage license, questionnaire ). I had no worries about the ceremony at all, I knew everything would be seamless and it was. I would highly recommend him.
Thank you so much Pastor Jeremy, really appreciate all of your help.
Pastor Jeremy officiated our wedding in May and did an amazing job. We found him through the Knot, trusted the previous reviews and then met via FaceTime for our first consultation. We didn't want a highly religious ceremony and we felt like he understood that from the beginning. From there we met in person and discussed all of the details of the day. He provided super helpful packets to pick vows and readings and was able to make recommendations based on what he's seen work well previously. Overall he was responsive and on top of all of the details. We were able to do a rehearsal the day prior to the wedding, which Jeremy attended, facilitated and made everyone feel comfortable with their roles. The day itself and his message to us were everything we discussed and felt very meaningful. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him!
Jeremy did our wedding ceremony this past Saturday! It was perfect! Jeremy is so easy to talk to and he was so helpful throughout the whole planning process. My husband and I had no idea about planning a ceremony and did not know how things should go, but Jeremy made everything so easy for us and for it to go smoothly. He is very knowledgable and was always responsive within a day whenever we contacted him. We got so many compliments on the ceremony afterwards! We could not have picked a better officiant! I would recommend Jeremy to anyone!
Wow! Pastor Jeremy Ziegler officiated our wedding on April 9, 2017. All I can say is, Amazing! Jeremy was spectacular... from the planning to the rehearsal and down to perfectly executing our I do's. He truly gave us the kind of ceremony we dreamed of with just the right amount of of religious touch we hoped for and 100% personal. I can't thank him enough for being so thorough throughout the entire process.
Thank you!!
Much love,
Mr. & Mrs. Martinez
Pastor Jeremy performed an amazing ceremony for my husband and I. We wanted a personal meaningful ceremony but also wanted to keep it short and sweet. Pastor Jeremy guided us through the panning of the ceremony and made it the least stressful part of the planning our wedding.
