Nico understood the assignment! Uh huh… uh huh… he UNDERSTOOD the assignment!
If you are looking for an officiant who brings heart, humor, presence, professionalism, and pure storytelling magic, Nico is the one. We had a very specific vision for our ceremony, for it to be the most important part of our wedding day, to be community centered rooted in equality and partnership. Nico delivered that and so much more. He took his time to know us with a few zoom calls and over 100 emails. The ceremony made us feel relaxed, in love, and fully present the entire time. It genuinely felt like he reinforced everything my husband and I believe about our relationship and the way we show up for each other.
We’re huge fans of storytelling, so we wanted an officiant who could tell our love story with all the twists and turns; basically, something worthy of a TLC episode. Nico knocked it out of the ballpark!!! He even made a surprise entrance that had everyone excited for the ceremony. We wanted someone who could fly by the seat of his pants, and he did exactly that. At one point I interrupted him mid ceremony with an additional comment, and he didn’t miss a beat! He kept the flow going perfectly. Although he typically delivers a 30 minute ceremony, we asked for something longer with a modified unity ceremony, modified traditional vows, and a modified ring warming ritual. He took his time, honored every request, and somehow still made it feel shorter than 30 minutes. Multiple people asked, “Wait… that was really 45 minutes? It felt like 15!”
Friends even asked if he was our cousin because he fit in so naturally with everyone. He even picked up inside jokes from our families and wove them into the ceremony. We included a unity ceremony that only the bride’s parents and siblings knew, and afterward my parents could not stop raving at how it was the most perfect execution they could have ever wished for. The father of the groom said Nico captured our love with both the bride and groom in equal parts; exactly what we asked for when we told him we wanted a ceremony centered on equality and partnership. He didn’t just meet that request; he exceeded it by showing how we practice that in our love story. My brother even asked Nico if he would officiate his wedding in 15 years when he’s around 29 or 30. And honestly, the ceremony became the highlight for so many guests. A few couples left absolutely love infested and joked about wanting to get married within a year with a similar ceremony. Our guests were literally obsessed.
He also went above and beyond with logistics. Even though we had already looked into the marriage license process, Nico personally called the county clerk’s office to make sure every “T” was crossed and every “I” was dotted so we’d be fully prepared. That level of care meant everything.
His communication was always respectful and professional, even when discussing financial details. Especially when we were negotiating travel and lodging, he stayed patient, flexible, and kind. He never made us feel uncomfortable or difficult. He worked with us every step of the way.
We recommend Nico wholeheartedly. He’s professional, reasonable, creative, and always prepared with contingency plans. He’s open to fun ideas (he didn’t even blink at our dramatic entrance request), and he brings genuinely good suggestions of his own. Nico didn’t just understand the assignment… he redefined it. Thank you Nico! Should we throw a wedding every year so we can see you every year?! You have become a great friend!
