One-of-a-Kind Ceremony to Reflect Your Unique Love
Based in Northwest Ohio, Weddings For The Ages is a wedding officiant service. We combine caring, creativity, and experience into a process that makes ceremony planning as stress-free as possible! We've helped to create more than 300 one-of-a-kind ceremonies for couples, making every celebration personal and memorable. Over 20 dedicated officiants are ready and available to serve couples throughout the states of Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana.
Every couple and every event is different, so each ceremony is customized to reflect the couples unique love story, personalities, and vibe! Our goal is to create a service that you will remember forever. We love to meet with couples multiple times before the ceremony, letting us get to know you better, and allowing you to explain your vision for your ceremony and ask any questions you may have.
Your comfort is so important to us. Your whole wedding day will be a rollercoaster of emotion, but the high point will be when you stand in front of your friends and family, and pledge your lives to each other - you'll want to feel comfortable and confident with the person who's guiding that moment! That's why we don't let couples book us until you've had a chance to talk with your officiant, so we can make sure that everyone feels like it's a good fit.
Whether you want a basic ceremony or something much more elaborate, we have packages to make your dream ceremony a reality. From a five-minute "mini-mony" in the park, to an hour-long extravaganza with music and movement, we are here to make it happen. Even quick paperwork-only services!
We are welcoming to all beliefs, backgrounds, and traditions, and are happy to include any special prayers, readings, or ceremonies that are significant to you; in fact, we love performing inter-faith ceremonies! Combining backgrounds and traditions in interesting ways can be incredibly fun!
We celebrate love in all forms, and all couples are welcome. We have experience performing weddings for same-sex, opposite-sex and non-binary couples. We are more than happy to use whatever pronoun(s) you prefer and will design the ceremony to fit with your personal beliefs. From traditional ceremonies to elopements and everything in between, Weddings for the Ages can help make your day one to remember.

BOOK THEM NOW. Weddings for the Ages went above and beyond my expectations. Very helpful with meetings leading up to the big day, day of was marvelous, and following your big day will also guide you to "what's next". Absolutely amazing. Do yourself a favor and book them now because they will be there every step of the way.
Atonn married us in August of this year, 2024. We are so grateful we found him and Weddings For The Ages. He was respectful, kind, and made us feel comfortable through the entire process. Which, was huge for us considering we were sharing a lot of personal information with a complete stranger. He never pressured us to give more than we wanted to and molded our ceremony to be exactly what WE wanted it to be, respecting our boundaries and embracing our sense of humor the entire way. Communication with Weddings For The Ages was great! They checked in frequently at milestone moths throughout our engagement as our wedding date drew closer. At our actual ceremony, Atonn had written such beautiful and personal things about our relationship that our guests couldn't believe that he wasn't a close friend, and was someone we had hired. We give Atonn and Weddings For The Ages our highest recommendation! We are so incredibly glad we found them and that they were available for our wedding. They are the professionals you want standing beside you on your big day!
If you’re looking for a top notch wedding officiant Weddings For The Ages is the way to go specifically though I highly recommend Atonn! He truly made our ceremony so special. He has such an amazing personality and my husband and I bonded so well with him throughout the process. He kept me so calm before the ceremony which is truly just what I needed. Our guests could not stop talking about how great of a job he did. He added the perfect touch of humor to the ceremony as well which definitely helped ease the nerves. Our other vendors told me throughout the night how they wish they could work with someone like him everytime they have a wedding. Atonn is truly top notch at what he does! Book with Weddings for the ages and ask for Atonn!! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Any questions?
Weddings for the Ages was an amazing choice for our ceremony! Atonn was so personable and a delight to work with. He easily blended my husband’s Catholic background and my non-denominational background to deliver a ceremony that everyone was pleased with. The support from Atonn from start to finish was much appreciated as we were so unaware of what type of information was needed to have a ceremony and what the process entailed. He was able to answer all of our questions and made the process stress free. He paid great attention to the details from getting to know us. He used them to share some of our personal stories and add some humor to our ceremony which kept it perfectly light hearted as we requested. All of our guests were asking how we knew him because they genuinely thought that we had known him for our whole lives. Atonn worked so well with our other vendors and the venue. It was clear that he is a well respected professional and has a great rapport with other vendors which made the ceremony go so smoothly. We greatly appreciate Atonn and his company Weddings for the Ages, and we would highly recommend them for your wedding.
We had an amazing experience working with Weddings for the Ages, and Atonn! He helped take our vision for our wedding ceremony and made it happen. Our guests loved the ceremony- and it was perfect for us.
Atonn was incredibly calming (I was a bit nervous), and helped us navigate unexpected delays leading up to the ceremony. His expertise, professionalism, communication and kindness meant the world to us as we planned our big day.
Atonn and Jodie were very professional and spent a lot of time getting to know us. It made the whole process so easy. Our ceremony was so beautiful and very thoughtful (also very funny)!
Weddings for the Ages went above and beyond what we expected as our officiant! We worked with Atonn and he truly took the time to get to know us and write a ceremony that was so perfect for us. We had multiple people comment that it was one of the best ceremonies they had ever been to! We can’t recommend them enough.
We had a wonderful experience with Scott from Weddings for the Ages! Scott put a ton of thought and care into crafting the perfect wedding ceremony. He had a ton of suggestions prepared as far as ceremony readings and unity ceremony. There was a thorough questionnaire that was a ton of help with describing our relationship so the ceremony could be unique to us. Great option for any type of wedding ceremony (non religious or religious) and very affordable pricing. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for an officiant for their wedding!
We had Michael Barlos as our officiant and he was seriously so amazing and the perfect fit for us! Every meeting ran smooth including our rehearsal! The ceremony was absolutely perfect! He was so fun and easy to work with!
Gosh, where to start with them. You don’t need to look any further for the best around - communication, experience, detail, and support. They did an amazing job as soon as we reached out to them, providing us resources as we navigated through wedding planning, getting to know us, making the ceremony so relevant to the people that we are and the married couple that we were becoming, and made it fun the entire way. ❤️
Atonn, we appreciate all that you did to make our ceremony all that it was: perfect as perfect could get!
Atonn was our officiant for the wedding ceremony, our experience was beyond what we hoped for! Amazing does not even sum up our experience with wedding for the ages! Communication was excellent throughout the planning process. Atonn got to know us through in person meetings, emails, and phone conversations. One of the best parts was the questionnaire that we filled out, which gave him a deeper understanding of how we are as a couple! Let me get to the best part the ceremony! Atonn made our ceremony so fun, the best part was it was tailor made to be personal to us and what we like and most importantly our love story! After the ceremony was finished many of our guest commented that this was one of the best ceremonies they have ever been to! So, if you want a beautifully tailored ceremony book them now, you will not be disappointed!
Atonn. You created the most beautiful ceremony ever. We cannot thank you enough, but what we can do is help to share how amazing it was with others here. My husband and I had no idea where to start when it came to looking for an officiant. We attending a few wedding events, but just did not feel a connection with anyone. I did extensive online searching and review reading, and I stumbled upon Atonn at weddings for the ages. I was blown away with the amount of positive reviews he had received. Our first meeting was one I’ll never forget. My husband and I were SOOOO nervous until we had ONE conversation with him, and we opened right up. He is friendly, inviting, relatable, and most importantly he respected every decision we wanted to make regarding our ceremony. He asked questions that helped us draft our desired ceremony with him. He also helped us with many unity feature ideas when we were unsure. He attended our rehearsal to ensure everyone knew what we were supposed to do and when. He was patient and attentive to everything we talked about. He included all the small details about us that we mentioned in meeting with him and discussing in his questionnaire and you can tell he put thought and emotion into every word he said. I LOVED that he offered to review both of our personal vows before the ceremony, because they were SOO in sync. He ensured we got our marriage license in the appropriate time and got it filed very quickly!!! I appreciate him for everything! Once we have more photos back, we’ll be sure to share them with you. Thank you for creating such a memorable day.
Atonn and Jodie were nothing short of amazing. Upon booking for our micro-wedding ceremony, Jodie was prompt and friendly with communication and coordinating meetings with Atonn. I LOVE that Atonn took time to learn about us as a couple and scheduled a video chat to create a relationship with us so our experience felt extra personal. The questionnaire they sent pre-ceremony to learn about our history was so fun to fill out together. We had a specific request to be pronounced married at 11:11am and Atonn made sure that happened organically. He made sure we felt calm and comfortable at the beginning of our ceremony and wrote a beautiful script for our special day. His words were so thoughtful and meaningful to us as a couple that we’ve chosen to print out a copy to incorporate in to our wedding album!
We had Scott as our officiant, and I'm so glad we had him around! He was very personable and took extra care to customize the ceremony to something that really matched our styles. We couldn't have had anyone better!
Atonn is the best. My parents are very traditional and wanted a church wedding so it made them nervous when we hired an officiant, but they have not stopped talking about how amazing he was. We heard from everyone how personal the ceremony felt and how they actually enjoyed it and felt like we are all on this journey together. He is the best and was so much fun to work with and unbelievable professional. I would recommend him to anyone I met and so glad we were able to have him on our special day!
Atonn is such a great person and was SO easy to work with. We started planning our wedding from out of state before moving back to the area and we had no issues with communication. We told Atonn we wanted something short & sweet and still kind of traditional but fun, and he did an excellent job. The pre-wedding questionnaires were fun and helpful to complete so Atonn got to know us a little better despite not meeting in person until the day of our rehearsal. We're so thankful for him and Jodie!
Weddings for the ages was exactly what we needed for an officiant service. We have a hectic life with 2 small children and work so trying to plan a wedding was difficult. They made it easy by communicating via text and phone at our convenience. Scott was so friendly and we just loved the personality he brought to our ceremony!
Scott did a fantastic job! Couldn't have been any happier with how he helped us prep, and his professionalism and execution on the day of the wedding
My fiance and I had been searching for an officiant or pastor to perform our service for quite some time. It was a little bit of a drive from where we live to where we were getting married. After several officiants backed out we were blessed to have Darlene cross our paths. Darlene and the wedding party both live about 2 hours away from where our venue was. She gave us the most memorable service possible. My bride and I were both late to our own wedding, were never on time, lol. Darlene waited for us. She included a few things in our ceremony we didn't discuss on the phone and it was beautiful. She had everyone present pray and have good thoughts and wishes on our rings before we exchanged them. We thought that was pretty neat. If I had to do it all over again, I would gladly have Darlene perform our service. Darlene is very punctual on time and goes over everything to ensure the couple is getting the wedding that they desire to have. You will not be disappointed with her services. BTW her husband is a big support to her during the ceremony.
Oh we absolutely love Atonn! He was so compassionate and kind to us. He didn’t just officiate for us, he listened to us and helped us navigate our family dynamics. He helped make our wedding special and we can’t thank him enough for the constant encouragement. He is the best of the best!
Atonn did an amazing job officiating our wedding. He was so personable and really made the ceremony heartfelt and fun. I loved that he really got to know us beforehand in order to tailor the ceremony to us and our relationship. He is a fantastic speaker. I highly recommend him!
Rachel was perfect for our wedding! She worked with us on all the details of the ceremony and lead it perfectly. Even living 2,000 miles away She made our meetings feel very personable. Would definitely recommend to anyone!
My daughter booked Weddings for the Ages…she had no referral from friends and knew no one that had used them. So she was going in blind!! Needless to say as the Mother of the Bride, I was quite nervous! She booked the officiant Scott Stechschulte! Scott was amazing! He communicated with the bride & groom to hear what their “vision” was as a ceremony. He really got to know the couple in a short amount of time via phone calls & a detailed questionnaire. He was the ultimate professional during rehearsal & ceremony. His ceremony was so personal, sincere & even funny at times. I would highly recommend Scott as an officiant!
Words cannot even begin to describe how wonderful Scott was to work with. From our initial call with him to discuss all of our hopes and dreams for our wedding we knew he was our go-to choice. Scott was a pleasure to work with making us feel the most loved throughout the planning process and on our special day, he was communicative, explained things well to us and offered amazing suggestions. Having Scott officiate our wedding felt like having a member of our family there with us. He was funny, he was serious, he listened to us and our ideas and used them during our ceremony, he was all of the things you want in an officiant and more. We cannot thank or recommend enough. If you are looking for an officiant who truly cares about you and your special day as if it were their own then look nowhere else Scotts the GUY!!!!
Atonn was great to work with and very helpful with our wedding ceremony and planning! We had so many people come up to us and say that Atonn was the best officiant they have seen at a wedding! We had a great time and Atonn really helped calm our nerves before the ceremony – and the ceremony itself was perfect!
Atonn was amazing!! He met with us before our wedding so he could get to know us. For our ceremony he wrote the most beautiful words just from meeeting with us it was like he knew us forever! He made us smile, cry and laugh. Our guests are still raving about our ceremony and how Atonn made the ceremony memorable! Atonn you have a gift that most people dont, you can see the love that people have for eachother and put it into words magically. Thank you! for the most beautiful ceremony and the memories that we will always cherish and never forget! If you are getting married my husband and myself HIGHLY recommend you choose Atonn he is absolutley amazing!
Atonn talked us though every step of the way, meeting with us several times prior to the wedding to make sure our wedding was going to be exactly what we wanted and that we were as prepared as we could be for the actual day. Everything went off without a hitch and his ceremony was beautifully tailored to what we wanted. Atonn was eloquent and weaved in personal details and stories we provided into the ceremony to make it feel all the more special to us, while providing us a relaxed and lighthearted atmosphere. He made our wedding day all the more special for us.
Words cannot describe how wonderful Atonn was at our ceremony! We had a few things go not as planned (as anyone does at a wedding) and he was a huge help in making sure things continued to run smoothly during the ceremony. The months leading up to the ceremony, Jodie was so great at communicating with us to make sure we felt comfortable with everything and to make sure that we were getting everything we wanted. We met with Atonn multiple times leading up to the wedding and all of our meetings went so well! Atonn genuinely wanted to get to know us and worked hard to make our ceremony as unique as we are. My husband and I had decided later on that we wanted to do a unity barrel and Atonn jumped right on board with it and knew exactly what to say! If you are looking for an officiant and team who truly cares about you and creates an individualized experience, Weddings For The Ages is the perfect team!
I could not have asked for a better person than Darlene to officiate my wedding (7-16-2022). She was personable and truly cared to answer questions we had along with bringing our story to life within our ceremony. She truly has a talent. Among all of the stress with the other vendors and family-Darlene was like icing on a cupcake-she was that pleasant to work with.
I don't think I could ever find all of the words to explain how perfect our wedding ceremony was because of Atonn. Atonn is the type of person that we could look at as more than just an officiant. We started talking with and getting to know him many months before our wedding and it absolutely showed. He was so professional but personable, had the biggest heart, and we instantly felt like he genuinely cared about what we wanted with our wedding ceremony. We vibed with him in ways that I didn't expect to with our officiant. When it came to our wedding day, I could not have asked for our ceremony to go better. Atonn made our ceremony so personalized to us, with the perfect mix of serious and lighthearted moments, and everything else in between. Even after the ceremony, we had multiple of our guests compliment him. In a heartbeat, I would recommend Atonn to anybody.
We had an unexpected change to our officiant 2 days before our wedding due to our officiant getting COVID. I honestly think that was a huge blessing in disguise. Atonn showed up at our rehearsal dinner two days before the wedding, which is where we met him for the first time. He stayed after the rehearsal to ask us many questions to get to know us very well for our ceremony. Our entire ceremony was perfect! Atonn made it very personal and also threw in some jokes to keep it light hearted. We could not have asked for a better officiant for our wedding! I highly recommend Atonn to anyone looking for an officiant!
Couldn't ask for a better ceremony! Atonn was great and helped us make our ceremony unique to who were are as a couple. We met with Atonn 3 times before the ceremony and he really took the time to get to know us. After the ceremony, we had many people come up to us to compliment Atonn and how he made the whole thing fun! Our wedding day was truly amazing thanks to Atonn!!
Michael Barlos was our officiant for our wedding this past weekend. We could not be happier with the entire experience from start to finish. He asked all the right questions to make sure our ceremony was EXACTLY what we wanted & gave us tips along the way. Our ceremony was perfect & Michael was an absolute pleasure to work with! Highly recommend if you are looking for a friendly & caring officiant for your big day!
Our ceremony was very personalized and ment alot. Atonn did a great job. It was everything we wanted and more. I would highly recommend using them as a vendor.
Atonn is the absolute best! From our first meeting, we knew he was the perfect fit for our wedding. He did an amazing job personalizing our ceremony; he took all of the information we provided to him, and really captured our story - he brought so much fun and enjoyment, while still keeping it professional. Numerous people came up to us throughout the night and told us how impressed they were by him. Atonn truly made our wedding special and unforgettable. We have nothing but great things to say about him and the whole Weddings for the Ages team!
Atonn is so nice, easy to talk to, and the ceremony was beautiful! Would definitely recommend!
Atonn was very professional, flexible, and knowledgeable about everything for this being our first time with an officiant and booking him a month and a half out from our wedding! We both loved speaking with him and his suggestions we never even thought about. Wedding day is here and it rains all morning. Ceremony is in our back yard, it is a swamp... we are running late. Atonn was patient with us and made it all about us and made it perfect for us! I would definitely recommend to anyone to book with him!
We worked with Scott for our wedding and he was PERFECT. We did a themed wedding, and he went all out to make sure the ceremony had the exact flair we were looking for. He met with us multiple times to review the process, and listened to all of our requests. He was able to take all of that information and create a ceremony that was perfect for us, and showed who we were as a couple.
I cannot speak highly enough of Atonn and the Weddings For The Ages staff. They made the entire process not only smooth and painless, but fun! And my gosh, the ceremony could not have been more perfect. My WIFE (woohoo!) and I loved it, and we got so many compliments on Atonn and the whole ceremony in general. It was incredible, amazing, and unforgettable.
We had the pleasure of working with Michael Barlos for our wedding this August. He is personable, easy to talk to, a good listener, and he has a great sense of humor. Michael was able to help us create the exact type of ceremony we were looking for. He got to know my husband, his daughters, and I on a personal level which aided in our ceremony creation. Having to postpone our original wedding due to Covid during 2020, Michael kept in decent contact with us checking in to see how things were going and keeping everything on track. I highly recommend Michael and Weddings for the Ages.
Carlyn did an incredible job! We feel SO lucky to have found her! Weddings for the Ages did a great job matching what our needs were to our officiant.
From the moment we matched, Carlyn took the time to get to know my husband and I on a personal level. She remembered small, important details and threaded them throughout the ceremony to make it special. She followed up with us throughout the planning process and made sure we were taken care of every step of the way.
During the ceremony, she spoke from the heart and it showed.
I had so many friends and family members come up to us afterwards letting us know how great the ceremony was. Despite only meeting Carlyn from the time we needed an officiant, several people asked if we were close friends. And we feel like we gained a friend in the process! She truly cares about what she does and it is clear.
I could not recommend her enough!
We had the pleasure of working with Atonn from Weddings for the Ages not once, but twice because of COVID restrictions pushing off our full-sized wedding and we wouldn't have had it any other way!
Atonn took pains to meet and communicate with us often in the months leading up to our big day in order to better get to know us as individuals and as a couple and strove to cater our ceremony to fit our personalities, style, and needs. He also did an absolutely outstanding job writing two very distinct ceremonies that were at once lighthearted, solemn, and tender. He exuded a calm, joyful presence when we needed it most getting through our nerves in front of all our friends and family during the wedding and was a truly an invaluable guide and partner in making our day special and memorable.
We received soo many compliments and positive comments from our guests about his ceremony and my wife and I could not have been happier with his process and performance ourselves - I would absolutely recommend him or folks from his team for anyone's special day! Seriously, if you are reading this review then what are you waiting for, contact him before it's too late!
Atonn was amazing ! Covid made meeting tonight but He helped us feel confident in our decision over our virtual meetings leading up to the wedding day. On our wedding day he brought not only sincerity but laughter and helped set the tone for the wedding day/ reception.
I would recommend him again and again !! We’re so thankful for his services
We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding officiant than Atonn with Wedding for the Ages! We were nervous at first being an out-of-state couple and finding an officiant who would create a personalized ceremony for us, but Atonn instantly eased those worries and shot it out of the park. Each time we virtually met with him it was like catching up with an old friend and we loved hearing the crazy stories from his many years of experience. Atonn took the time to get to know us and created such a special ceremony for us inculpating all of the special themes of our wedding and our relationship as a couple. He even surprised us with the sweetest, most thoughtful addition to our ceremony that we will treasure always! Atonn instantly makes you feel comfortable and excited and was the perfect addition to our ceremony! We’re so thankful we found him and can’t wait to work with him again to create a special ceremony for our vow renewal and dating anniversary celebration next year!
Ardy Gonyer was our officiant for our 10/24/2020 wedding. And we can honestly say that we were and still are absolutely THRILLED that we went with Weddings for the Ages for our wedding officiant! Our wedding planner had a few recommended officiants on her list and I am so overjoyed that I clicked on Weddings For The Ages first! Their reviews from other couples took the cake in what we were looking for in an officant! The first time my now husband and I met with Ardy, we knew that all of our hopes and plans for our big day were finally falling into place! It felt as if we had been life long friends with him in our first few meetings! Ardy was so easy to talk to, get ahold of, and get along with! We loved his sense of humor and friendliness! He made helping us figure out exactly what we wanted for and to include in our ceremony process so incredibly easy and smooth! Ardy was there every step of the way to answer all my questions and go over things time and time again! It truly was a pleasure working with Ardy! We had so many of our guests tell us what an amazing job our officiant did with our ceremony and ask where we found him! We cannot say enough good things about Weddings For The Ages! If you're looking for a wedding officiant, look no more because you've found it here!
Atonn made our ceremony so personal from day 1. He was so comfortable with making sure the day was for US. As a now step mother, who really wanted to include my husband's daughter in the ceremony, it was so important to me that our officiant be flexible and recognize that our day was about all 3 of us. He went above an beyond. The moment he started talking, I was able to relax and ENJOY my ceremony. Atonn also stepped out of the center when we gave vows and had our first kiss so that our pictures turned out amazing. (Not that he wouldn't have made them amazing too) Many of our guests commented about how he fit our style so well. THANK YOU!
FANTASTIC!!!! Atonn officiated our wedding and he did such an amazing job. He was very thoughtful in his words and it was such a personal and sweet ceremony. He was very helpful at putting me at ease of how the ceremony would look and walking us through all the motions of it. The team was very responsive when we had asked questions before the big day. I am so happy we chose them and highly recommend Weddings For The Ages to anyone looking for an officiant!
Absolutely amazing! Rachel did a phenomenal job. We were concerned how everything would go with us being out of state, but Rachel was right there assuring us it would be great. Through all the video chats and emails she was there every step of the way to make sure it was all we could ever dream of.
PHENOMENAL!!! I cannot say enough about this company and our officiant Atonn! He made every detail of our wedding ceremony PERFECT and exceeded all of our expectations. They were an absolute dream to work with and they made the wedding planning simple and seamless. We were in awe of the amount of work that Atonn put in to ensure that he incorporated both of our cultures and honored our christian faith. Honestly, I do not have enough words to express the gratitude and satisfaction that we have. You made our special day unforgettable.
Atonn was amazing. He met with us on multiple occasions and really listened to what we had to say. He really got to know us and put in so much effort into our wedding. He was super flexible even with the date change due to Covid and made everything flow natural. His business is very professional and if you can’t find someone to marry you he and his team can do it. He even did so well that my dad which is hard to please even commented on how well he did and made it seem like Atonn had known us for a while. He fit right in and really made our ceremony feel magical. If you’re looking for an officiant go with Wedding of the ages! 😃
Antonn and his team did an amazing job doing our 25th Vow Renewal! Antonn really got to know us as a couple and he put a personal touch during the ceremony. We would highly recommend Weddings For The Ages!
We are SO happy that we went with Weddings for the Ages for our wedding officiant. The first time we met with Ardy we instantly clicked. He was so friendly, and super easy to talk to. He made the entire process so easy, and he helped us figure out exactly what we wanted for our ceremony. We even had to postpone our original larger wedding date, and we decided to have a small ceremony with our family in the park on our originally planned wedding day. He was there for us and married us in the park, then when we were able to have our larger wedding reception he performed a vow renewal for us. He was SO flexible and was there for us every step of the way even when things got a little stressful with coronavirus. I cannot say enough good things about Weddings for the Ages and our officiant Ardy. If you're looking for a wedding officiant, Weddings for the Ages is the one you're looking for! You will not regret it.
Atonn did a tremendous and professional job providing a ceremony that was precisely what we had hoped for. If you're looking for an officiant with experience, charisma and professionalism look no further. We were an out of town couple and Atonn went out of his way to schedule multiple Skype meetings and get to know us on a personal level. It felt like a wedding officiated by a friend or family member.
Book Weddings For The Ages! You won't be disappointed. We had Atonn as our officiant earlier this month. He was great and very personable with his vows for us. With the pandemic, our plans changed within the two weeks prior to the wedding date and Atonn was able to adjust accordingly. I honestly got so many compliments about what a great job he did. Next year my husband and I will be having our original ceremony (because we couldn't get our money back from vendors) and Atonn agreed to be there again if we choose to go that route. My final thought- when looking at officiants earlier this year, I reached out to several places. Weddings For The Ages is the only one that contacted me back and for that I am grateful because I couldn't have imagined it any other way!
We had Atonn as our wedding officiant and he was amazing! He made the ceremony so personal and lighthearted which is exactly what we wanted. He really took the time to get to know our story and our relationship. He kept coming up to us before the ceremony and saying to just breathe and take it in. Right before we walked down the aisle he reminded us why were there and what it truly meant. It wasn’t about if everything went as planned or if this person was in the right spot, it was about us and our family and friends and our love. He was such and easy person to talk to and made everything so easy. Their communication and customer service was excellent as well. As a COVID couple they made it so easy to change our date. During such a stressful time Atonn and Weddings for the Ages just gave us one less thing to have to worry about. If it wasn’t for social distancing I would have given Atonn a huge hug!
We had originally booked Weddings For The Ages a year ago. Expecting a normal wedding at our venue with all of our guests. Then just three months before our wedding the pandemic hit and we were faced with the decision of what to do. We ended up changing our plans and decided on a backyard wedding with just our close family. Through the changes Michael was able to help us and accommodate our new plans. He wrote a beautiful ceremony, that was sweet and to the point, which is what we had asked for. All of our guests enjoyed the ceremony and asked where we had found an officiant. We were very thankful for our experience with Michael and Weddings for the Ages!
There are no words accurate enough to describe how happy we are with our decision to have Atonn marry us. Not only was he professional and very quick to respond to any and all questions, but he is so easy going and very fun to sit and talk with! He made our ceremony more beautiful than I could have even imagined! So many guests asked about him afterwards and complimented the way he led our day. A thousand thank you’s to Atonn, we can’t recommend him enough!
Atonn was fantastic throughout our entire wedding planning process. His communication was quick and professional. Everyone had great things to say about our ceremony and complimented him! He added some personable touches and had people laughing. Our ceremony was perfect and we definitely recommend weddings for the ages!! They were great to work with.
Atonn was an absolute pleasure to work with! He helped us craft an amazing one of a kind ceremony for our wedding. One that was very true to ourselves, our inner geek, one might say. He was quick to respond to any emails or text messages we sent and worked with a very high level of professionalism. Would 17/12 recommend.
Carlyn was amazing! The perfect choice for our special day. We are blessed to have found her to perform our ceremony. Carlyn has an exceptional knack for detail, and creating the day of your dreams as you want the to be. Carlyn wants to know about the couple which allows her to create a personal connection. We could not have imagined the day without her! Carlyn we cannot say thank you enough!
Atonn did an amazing job with our ceremony. We chatted over the phone once to get a basic outline of what we wanted out of our ceremony a few months beforehand. We video chatted to talk about the details about a month before the wedding. And Atonn was available to really hone in and help us finish the planning for the rehearsal. He made the ceremony so personable. He worked very well with our style - inserting not overly-cheesy jokes and sweet moments throughout the ceremony. Jacob and I felt like he did a beautiful job creating a beautiful memory for us. I would absolutely recommend him to anybody!
Atonn went above and beyond to give us the wedding ceremony that we had envisioned all along. From scheduling several meetings throughout the wedding planning process, to getting to know us as a couple, Atonn could not have been more of a perfect fit as our officiant. If you are looking for a personalized ceremony that incorporates every aspect of your relationship, Weddings For The Ages will make it happen. We have had countless wedding guests comment on how touching and unique our ceremony was, along with how much they enjoyed it. I would recommend Atonn again and again because he ensured that our ceremony was absolutely perfect!
Atonn was a dream to work with. He met with us multiple times and made sure the our ceremony reflected who we are as a couple. Thanks to Atonn, our wedding was fun, light and full of special moments for our family. I do not have enough positive things to say about Atonn and our experience in working with Weddings for the Ages. I received so many compliments on the ceremony from family and friends - all saying that it was the best wedding ceremony they had been to! Thank you so much, Atonn!
Ardy was the officiant at our wedding and he did an amazing job. He met with us several times and really go to know us beforehand, making the experience even more personal and memorable. We felt like he truly cared and was excited to be a part of our special day, not just because it was his job, but rather he felt honored to be there and help make the start of our life together unforgettable.
Atonn was a pleasure to work with! He made everything fun, and super easy! He was very easy to get ahold of and helped make our wedding day one to remember, even if it was the hottest day of the year!
So grateful that Atonn was able to be a part our wedding day! He perfectly created the ceremony to fit our personalities and the overall vibe we were going for. Very easy to communicate with and such a positive presence overall. Continue to get compliments on him as our officiant. We highly recommend him!
Atonn is AMAZING. The ceremony is so personalized and he will tweek it to your style - whether you want a serious tear jerker ceremony or a light and funny ceremony, he will bring your vision to life. You can truly tell he takes the time to make the ceremony everything you want it to be and it’s not the same as anyone else’s. After our ceremony SO many people complimented it and how much they loved it. A ton of people said it was their favorite ceremony they’ve ever sat through which made me as the bride feel SO good. Atonn will walk you through the whole process and be as hands on with planning as you want him to be. 10000% would recommend Atonn, he’s so so so great.
We hit a snag with our initial wedding plans and reached out to Weddings for the Ages just about 5 months before our big day. They wasted no time in helping us out and set us up with Michael Barlos who did an amazing job officiating our ceremony. Highly, highly recommend Weddings for the Ages and Michael in particular.
Carlyn is warm and professional. She was very easy to work with and supported our wants and needs for the ceremony. She asked us what we wanted and gave great suggestions that helped us shape our ceremony and make it personal. Our only minor complaint is that the name she signed on our marriage license didn’t match the name she is registered under. Luckily we were able to fix it with a phone call but it delayed the process and was a small inconvenience. She was also very responsive. Overall we would recommend Weddings for the Ages and Carlyn!
We adored Scott! He was so easy going, his words really hit home! He had to stay a bit after the ceremony to get our license without an issue. Truly thrilled with our vows. He was always available, willing to help and just really did a wonderful job. He has us, friends and family feeling the love in the air! Highly recommend!!
Scott did a great job planning our ceremony and performed a wonderful service making us feel very special. He was very responsive and patient with us throughout the process.
If you are looking for an amazing officiant Atonn is your guy! My photographer recommended Atonn and i am so happy i went with him. From the first phone call i knew he was going to be perfect he is so easy to talk to and will do whatever it takes to make your day special. Atonn sends you and your fiancé a questioner to get to know each of you and your relationship and when he does your ceremony it was like he knew us forever he made our ceremony so special and unique to us and our relationship! We had so many people asking if he was our friend and that it was the best ceremony they have ever been to! I honestly can't thank Atonn enough for truly making my wedding ceremony everything i ever dreamed of it was emotional and so special! I will be recommending Atonn to everyone.
Weddings for the Ages is a wonderful company and truly makes an effort to make your wedding special. I would recommend them to anyone. Atonn is an amazing speaker and will very quickly have wedding guests in tears. The company helps with so many aspects of the ceremony and is so flexible. they make the entire process smooth and stress-free.
Where do I begin?! I recently had the pleasure of working with Atonn and I cannot say enough amazing things about him and his process with his couples. Not only does he take ample time to get to know you and your significant other, but he takes all that he learns- what is most special and important to you both- and crafts it into a one-of-a-kind ceremony that will be sure to be remembered for years to come. As a fellow wedding professional, I witnessed countless guests in tears, laughing and smiling throughout the entire ceremony as everyone celebrate this couples' love. I have never seen anything like it! If you are looking for more than just someone to marry you, you absolutely should make speaking with Atonn your number one priority!
Choosing Atonn to preform our ceremony was the best choice we could have made. Scheduling the first meeting and subsequent meetings was very easy and flexible. Atonn got to know us very quickly and composed a beautiful ceremony that was full of laughter, which is just what we wanted.
Scott Stechshulte was our officiant for my wife and I’s wedding and I cannot say enough great things about him! The moment we met him we knew that we had found ourselves a new friend. Not only is he an excellent officiant and speech writer he is a truly awesome guy! Every interaction we had was full of laughs and good times. His ceremony speech absolutely blew us away and could not have been anymore perfect!! We cannot thank him and Wedding for The Ages enough for making our day so special!! Highly recommend!!
Atonn was absolutely incredible as our officiant! I remember being nervous when I was looking for officiants because I knew how important they are for your ceremony. I had searched for awhile online and had come across Weddings for the Ages. I had called Atonn shortly after about his services and I immediately felt comfortable talking to him on the phone. He answered all of my questions and I could tell he really cared about his clients. After the phone call I decided that my husband and I had to meet up with him in person. We both immediately connected with Atonn at our first meeting and had felt like we had known him for a long time. We both said “wow this guy could have been a perfect fit in our friend group.”We hired him and I have to say it was one of the best decisions we had made for our wedding!
Atonn really takes the time to get to know you as a couple and listen to your wedding vision so he can perform a beautiful personal ceremony and that’s exactly what he did for us. It seriously felt like our best friend was officiating the wedding. He had me crying with the vows he wrote for us. Everyone at the wedding was blown away by the ceremony and they all talked about how amazing the service was and Atonn’s words stuck with so many of our guests. Atonn truly made the wedding unforgettable and I was honored to have him as our officiant. He also introduced me to my incredible wedding planner, Courtney Of LCN Events, which made my life so much easier and created a dream team of vendors. After all of this we have developed a life long friendship with Atonn and that is so beautiful to me. I know Atonn only hires the best for Weddings for the Ages. I strongly recommend hiring them! You seriously won’t regret it!
Our officiant was Ardy, and I can't say enough good things about our experience with him. He was professional, responsive, and helpful throughout the entire process. We received so many compliments from wedding guests about our ceremony. He made the ceremony personalized to us as a couple, and his words about marriage were touching and unique. We would recommend Ardy to anyone looking for an officiant...we couldn't have pulled off our big day without his help and support!

Atonn spent so much time getting to know us and learning exactly what we wanted from our ceremony. He was professional, responsive, and flexible. He's also a great person who I enjoyed getting to know. I absolutely recommend Weddings for the Ages for any type of ceremony!

Erin, it was absolutely wonderful working with you two! Planning a wedding from across the country can be challenging, but everything really came together for your special day! I'm so glad I was part of it!

We were lucky enough to have Atonn for our wedding ceremony and it was perfect. He had us fill out a questionnaire when we first met him and he did an amazing job using all of those little details in our ceremony. He was very nice and accommodating with any requests. He was very professional but also joked around with us and made it fun. We had many family and friends come up to us and say he did an amazing job. Highly recommended by my husband and myself!
We were recommended to Atonn by the wedding venue (Prout Chapel) and we are so pleased that he conducted our ceremonny. He is an amazing person with full of charm and has great personality . He was so well organised and most professional yet extremely friendly . We felt that one of our close friends is doing this for us. He did go through every details of the event including a rehearsal. We were put at ease and reassured that everything will be fine on the day. He took our personal details and preferences and filled those in the ceremony to make us feel very special ( including our New Year greeting in Burmese language). It was a great service and we would like to give him the highest rating.We thank him from the bottom of our hearts and we will always remember him who helped started our new journey.
Atonn is AMAZING! He was recommended to us by our venue and we are so thankful that he was. He was flexible, understanding, and someone that we felt like we have known our entire lives. He created our ceremony to perfectly match myself and the groom, with just the right amount of laughter and seriousness. He and his wife, Jodie, are organized and made the wedding planning process so smooth for us. We received compliments all night long from our guests about how great he was. He made our wedding day perfect and I highly recommend him!
