About Your Officiant
I’m James—Let’s Create a Ceremony That Feels Like You
Back in 2013, close friends asked me to officiate their wedding. I was nervous (to say the least), but after crafting a ceremony that truly reflected their love and seeing how meaningful it was, I knew I’d found something special.
Later, my own mom’s officiant canceled last minute. She asked me to step in—and I created something just for her. Simple, heartfelt, personal. She loved it.
That’s when I realized: couples deserve more than a script. They deserve something that feels like them.
Whether you're planning a big celebration or an intimate elopement, I’m here to make sure your ceremony is stress-free, meaningful, and completely yours.

What areas do you serve?
I’m based in Nacogdoches, and I happily serve couples all across East Texas—including Tyler, Longview, Lufkin, and even the Houston area. Whether you’re planning a cozy backyard wedding, a forest elopement, or something totally unique, I’m willing to travel to make your ceremony feel like you.
Do you perform non-religious or LGBTQ+ weddings?
Absolutely. Every ceremony I create is inclusive, non-traditional, and 100% personalized—because love is love, and every couple deserves to feel seen, respected, and celebrated.
Can we write our own vows?
Yes! You’re welcome to write your own vows—or I can help you craft something meaningful if you’re not sure where to start. Some couples prefer to keep it light and fun, others heartfelt and emotional—I'll support whatever feels right for you.
What happens if our officiant cancels last minute?
You're not the first couple I’ve stepped in for! If something unexpected happens, I can work quickly to deliver a thoughtful, stress-free ceremony that still feels like you. It’s why many couples keep me on standby—just in case.
How long is a typical ceremony?
Most ceremonies last around 15–25 minutes, but it depends on what you want to include. Whether it's short and sweet or a bit more elaborate, I’ll work with you to find the perfect rhythm.
Do you offer rehearsals or day-of coordination?
Yes, I offer rehearsal support and can help coordinate the ceremony on the big day to keep everything flowing smoothly. Think of me as your calm, behind-the-scenes hype man with a clipboard.
