The Officiant Pros Are Here to Help!

Shelley Armatino and Kathy Vass are both Justices of the Peace in the state of Connecticut as well as Ordained Ministers with American Marriage Ministries and have over 20 years experience in officiating weddings combined. 

​

Being a wedding officiant isn’t just a job for them — it's the most fun, meaningful work they've ever done and they've had a front-row seat to the greatest love stories. They get to hear about how couples met, what makes their connection unique, and how excited they are to build a life together. 

​

The best part is crafting custom wedding ceremonies that reflects each couple’s personality, charms their guests, and creates an experience people will be talking about long after the last dance.

And they can help you do the same!

Say "yes!" to officiating — it’s more than just one day

“How long have you known the couple?” or “That was the most personal ceremony!”

 

We hear these compliments all the time — and it’s all thanks to the genuine connections we build with our couples during the planning process.

As a Guest Officiant, you already know plenty about your friend or relative getting married, but through the intimate experience of planning their ceremony — you’ll discover a whole new side of them. You’ll hear stories, inside jokes, and sweet moments that you hadn't heard before! 

You'll walk away from this experience with more than a wedding script — you’ll create a stronger bond with the couple and lasting memories for years to come.

Afterwards, maybe you'll discover a newfound confidence in public speaking, performing or a passion for creative writing. You never know where this unique experience might lead you — but we promise, it’s going to be amazing!
