Rev. Louis was absolutely amazing! He was a pleasure to work with and made our ceremony super special. People laughed, cried and most of all truly enjoyed the whole experience. I'd recommend him and Hudson Valley Officiants to anyone and everyone!

Reverend Louis made the ceremony very enjoyable for everyone, made it very lovely and also provided comical relief during certain moments. I would recommend him to anyone.

Rev. Louis was perfect for our ceremony. He was so great to work with the entire time, very responsive, made us feel at ease, and made the experience really feel very personal. Given how busy he is with his work I think it is rare to find someone who can give each couple such a sense of warmth and genuine care. Rev. Louis is a genuinely kind person and anyone who has him to officiate their wedding is in excellent hands. Highly recommend!

Reverend Louis was a complete professional from beginning to end. Once we decided to approach Hudson Valley Officiants, we were not once disappointed in our choice. I am a rather tough skeptic due to a career of dealing with salespeople, but Reverend Louis did nothing to make me suspicious or think we should not trust him. Reverend Louis met with us several times and conveyed a genuine interest in our relationship. At no point did I feel like he was attempting to sell us on any extra services or drive up his price inappropriately. The whole process was very transparent and pleasant. He was quick to respond to all emails and phone calls. He kept very in-touch and accessible. When it came time for the ceremony, Reverend Louis showed up early and made his presence known. He did an outstanding job in general, but for me, he really shined in his work to prepare us as a couple. Reverend Louis of course walked us through the legal ins and outs of what we were doing, but he also gave advice li...

He made a special point to make sure we were both sober and aware of all the things the document we were to sign meant before allowing us and our witnesses to sign it. The signed license was immediately filed with the State and we had no problems. I always felt like we were in very good hands. The ceremony he provided was beautiful and concise. In preparation, he set the wedding parties at ease with his humor and professionalism. He was respectful but also very much "in-charge" when it came to how the ceremony was going to go and made sure we as the Bride & Groom were not going to have to deal with any nonsense. Every option we selected happened. I would recommend Reverend Louis and Hudson Valley Officiants to anybody considering them to do their wedding. There's enough insanity that can happen during a wedding. I loved Reverend Louis because there wasn't any drama with him, but the real magic of Reverend Louis is his ability to prevent drama before it starts. We got every penny's worth of our money, in my opinion.

When my now husband and I were beginning wedding planning, we were anxious in figuring out how to blend his and his family’s Catholic background and mine and my family’s agnostic one. Rev. Lou came highly recommended by our wedding venue, The Grandview. After speaking to him on the phone, I instantly knew he was the perfect officiant for us. They warned us he was very popular and thus books well in advance, but he was luckily available 1 year out for our wedding. Rev. Lou was originally an ordained Catholic priest who broke away from the church and went towards more of a Unitarian denomination. He’s funny, cares deeply about his job, easy to work with, and did a phenomenal job in writing a custom ceremony for us. It was the perfect blend of light religion and spirituality, and I loved that he met with us a month prior and designed it with us, so it was customized to our level of beliefs. My parents and extended family (again, mostly agnostic) raved about what a del... Read moreight he was in performing our ceremony. I’ve been to a few weddings where the religious figure seems to be a bit rude to the couple and/or the ceremony is very impersonal – Rev. Lou is the exact opposite of those! I have nothing but amazing words to describe him and how he performed our wedding ceremony. Seriously, book him now! You won’t regret it!

My husband and I were lucky enough to have Reverend Louis from Hudson Valley Officiants marry us! We got married at the beautiful Red Maple Vineyard and HVO was on the venue's recommended vendors list. They were the first and last officiant company we reached out to because one conversation on the phone with Reverend Louis was all it took for us to decide we wanted him to do our ceremony! From that first phone consultation all the way through to our wedding day, Reverend Louis was extremely friendly, accommodating, and thorough when creating the perfect personalized and custom wedding ceremony. He made sure to incorporate or leave out certain elements in order to create a one of a kind ceremony tailored to my husband and I. After the ceremony, a lot of our guests came up to us to remark on how amazing Rev. Louis was! He added personal touches, a bit of religious elements, and of course humor! Our beautiful ceremony was made so special and memorable thanks to Rev. Louis. My husband a...

Reverend Louis Zeppone from Hudson Valley Officiants! Made our wedding day so special. He was extremely passionate, silly , the best & very professional. Reverend Louis was great to work with. We are beyond happy that we picked Reverend Louis to be our officiant. He is very helpful. I would highly recommend Reverend Louis and this company!

Rev Lou was very organized, approachable and professional. He walked us through all the ceremony details and provided valuable suggestions. It was a little chilly during our outdoor ceremony but he made the guests laugh and involved.

Thank you for making our moment so special. We highly recommend Rev. Louis.

We first crossed paths with Reverend Lou at my brothers wedding 2 years ago and at that moment we knew we had to book him right away! He is very kind, thorough and professional and made sure our ceremony was one we will never forget. I am still hearing from our friends and family on the great job that he did. We recommend Reverend Lou 100%, you will not be disappointed!

Could not ask for a better officiant than Hudson Valley Officiants! I originally met them at a bridal show and although we had a short interaction something about Reverend Louis’ personality stuck with me and I quickly had my heart set on having him officiate our wedding. We chose the package that comes with personalization and two consultations. The consultations are such a personal inviting experience I highly recommend getting the package that includes them. Reverend Louis had so many ideas for the ceremony that I had never even thought of including a special rose ceremony for our mothers that added a special touch. We also had a remembrance, sand ceremony, and Family blessing (as my husband gained a stepson). We also were able to show him our personalities at the consultations and have my son meet him ahead of time as my son was such a big part of the ceremony as well. Reverend Louis is so inviting he had my shy 7 year old chatting with him like it was his best friend which mad... Read moree things run so much smoother. He added such a light hearted and comical and yet intimate feeling to my ceremony that now, two weeks after the wedding I am still receiving compliments on it. Our personalization answers were seamlessly added into our ceremony adding humor and allowing our guests a closer glimpse into our love story. We were unable to schedule a rehearsal due to timing with my bridal party but Reverend Louis made sure to go over exactly what was going to happen during our consultation and on the morning of the wedding so everyone felt completely comfortable with how they were walking in and standing. Reverend Louis clearly puts his heart into his work and is very knowledgeable. I highly recommend Hudson Valley Officiants and plan on having Reverend Louis officiate again when we renew our vows in the future. Thanks again Rev Lou!

We used rev. Lou. You could t ask for a better man. He was on time, he worked with you every step of the way. We added a few custom touches and he fit them in and made it flow with ease there was no rushing. He focused on keeping the audience’s attention and making us comfortable. He took the nervousness out of the air and helped me focus on my bride and what the day meant. I couldn’t ask for better.

Reverend Louis really went above and beyond anything we could have dreamed of for our wedding day! From the very first time we spoke on the phone with him, we knew we wanted him to be part of our day. While humorous, he is also conscientious, professional, and a genuinely nice person. He crafted a beautiful ceremony that our friends and family still compliment today. On the day, just a few hours before walking down the aisle, his humor and calmness helped me get rid of any anxiety that I might have been feeling. Reverend Louis was really one of the best parts of our wedding, and we truly couldn't be any happier with the service we received! We would recommend Reverend Louis 100%!

Rev Louis did an amazing job officiating our wedding! So many of our guests told us they really enjoyed the ceremony and loved Rev. Louis. He took extra time with us during our initial meeting to go over all the details and what we wanted. He really seemed like he wanted to get to know us. He was always prompt and professional with all correspondence and was very helpful when we had an issue applying for our wedding license. He arrived early at our venue and went over all the details with everyone. He is very busy so make sure you book him early! We are so pleased with Rev. Louis and our ceremony!
