This Moment Wedding Officiants

WHERE This Moment  REFLECTS YOUR LOVE

​​

At This Moment Wedding Officiants, we help couples craft ceremonies that feel personal, meaningful, and true to your story.  Whether it's an intimate elopement or a full celebration, our officiants will bring warmth, professionalism, and care to your wedding.  Let's create a moment you'll remember for a lifetime.

​​

This isn’t merely a ceremony; these are the heartfelt words you select to share with your best friend, setting the stage for the next chapter of your love story.

​​

This moment is significant, and we're here to ensure it is truly special! Finding that special someone and celebrating your love is truly a gift! Life offers no guarantees, but one lesson we've learned is to cherish the present.

​​

Weddings beautifully reflect the choices we make in life: choosing another person to share the journey, to build a life together, and to walk hand in hand. Since 2002, Anthony and Michele have been navigating life side by side. With over 25 years of experience in officiating weddings, we've embraced ceremonies of all sizes—from small and intimate to grand and elaborate—each one holding space for the celebration of love.

​​

Your ceremony can pass by quickly, so we strive to slow things down, allowing you to fully immerse yourselves in the moment. Take a deep breath, gaze into your partner's eyes, and soak it all in. We create a space for you to connect in that shared experience, regardless of the number of guests. We want you to feel the intimacy and joy of this occasion, while also acknowledging those who have gathered to celebrate your love story.

​​

We collaborate with you to design a ceremony that reflects your unique journey and affection. Whether it includes a Dr. Seuss poem, a meaningful song, a Celtic knot-tying ritual, sand pouring, or even a butterfly release—the possibilities for your celebration are endless. If you prefer something more traditional, we can seamlessly incorporate meaningful cultural elements into your ceremony; we're here to support you.

Kind Words from Lovely Folks

Juliana & David

Working with Anthony and Michele through premarital coaching, and in turn, having them be such an integral part of our big day was not only a delight, but a truly meaningful experience. It was touching to have such an open and tenderhearted couple share their experience and wisdom with us all while intentionally getting to know each of us, both as individuals and a couple.

 

We couldn't have imagined anyone else officiating our wedding and we loved having both of them walk us through our ceremony being the loving couple that they are.

 

Their love for one another so beautifully informs their interactions with others, whether that be with soon-to-be wedded couples or anyone else they happen upon!

 

Damien & Lindsey

We cannot thank Anthony enough for being such a special part of our wedding day and for officiating such a beautiful ceremony. 

 

So many of our guests told us how much they enjoyed the ceremony and what a wonderful job he did—and we couldn’t agree more!

 

From the very beginning, Anthony supported us in using vows that truly reflected our love and helped us coordinate the ceremony exactly the way we envisioned it. He made sure the people who mattered most to us were included, and he did it all with such grace and care.

 

We feel incredibly blessed to have met Anthony during our wedding journey. His presence made our day even more meaningful, and we’ll always be grateful.

Alistair & Holly

Michele, thank you for the incredible role you played in one of the most special days of our lives—our wedding. Having you as our officiant was a blessing that made the day all the more meaningful.

Your words, presence, and support as family friends made the ceremony unforgettable, and we’ll always treasure the love and care you brought to such an important moment

 

Chris & Sonia

We had the immense honour of having Michele & Anthony work with us on creating a meaningful ceremony and special vows. They were able to surprise us with warmth and humour in what is most often a too solemn moment. We laughed and cried and our friends and family felt so included in our ceremony. Our whole day was made that much more special and we can’t thank you enough.

 

Markus & Denae

We were beyond thankful to have Michele and Anthony come alongside us and officiate our wedding. From our initial inquiry, they were very flexible, courteous, generous, and timely with all of their communications to us and in their provided services as well. As we worked through our wedding ceremony planning, it was really special to be able to work with a couple (rather than just one individual) because it gave depth to their recommendations and suggestions.

 

In our busy wedding planning season, they respected our hectic schedules and only reached out at designated times to attain required information/requests from us - in the meantime, they would take our requests and desires and make them a priority in the rest of their planning process.

 

We always felt like our hopes and wants for our wedding were highly valued working with the Yackels, and this is exactly how its supposed to be! 10/10 experience and would highly recommend for they make planning easy and fun.  

Claire & James

Working with Anthony was the best decision we could have possibly made for our wedding. We were thrilled that Anthony accepted our invitation to come to Palm Springs and marry us in an intimate setting. He was incredible from start to finish - from connecting with us prior to the date, to incorporating all the small things that made our ceremony unique and unforgettable, to standing with us as we shared a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

 

His presence at our wedding was exactly what we'd hoped for - someone who spoke eloquently, and yet genuinely cared about us and our marriage. There is no one I could possibly recommend more than Anthony!
