We just had our wedding two weeks ago and Arlene did such a fantastic job! We originally were going to try to ask a friend or a relative to be the officiant, but I am sooooo glad we went with Arlene. She's done this so many times and is so professional, and it's truly a relief to know that the person who is up there speaking knows exactly what to do and when to do it. If you are considering having someone who doesn't officiate often, I'd strongly recommend Arlene or her husband as an alternative. There really is so much going on and a lot to be stressed about, so having someone who has done this hundreds of times will make you feel much better! She also wrote the ceremony, and this was an area that was a little tricky because I was raised Catholic but my husband was not raised religious at all. We wanted my parents to be happy and my husband's family to be happy, and I think we struck the perfect balance. Even the most religious of our family members commented on what a beautiful cerem... Read moreony it was, and how personal it was. I couldn't be happier with how the ceremony went, and Arlene also made sure to send off our marriage certificate for us - which was a huge relief because it would have taken us at least a week or two to send it off, and a lot of things got moved around in the chaos of the wedding day! I would strongly recommend Arlene!!

I was in the midst of wedding planning when I connected with Arlene. She brought me back to the real meaning of this wedding, our marriage ceremony. She helped me re-establish why David and I were getting married, what we valued about our present and our future together and made it easy for me to focus on the most important aspect- US. I was so nervous before the ceremony and it was a relief to hear her begin speaking. It really calmed me down and carried us both through the ceremony. I would highly recommend working with Arlene. On your wedding day, you want someone whose going to bring your ceremony to a truly peaceful space where you can begin this incredible journey. Blessings Arlene and eternal gratitude.

Rev Arlene is great to have at your wedding

I can't say enough good things about Arlene! We were very particular about how we wanted our ceremony because we've been to alot of weddings where they drag on and you start to lose interest. This was not the case with Arlene! Our ceremony was so beautifully written and executed. My husband wanted us to write our own vows which I was very nervous about but Arlene helped me every step of the way. She was always available for phone calls and responded to emails quickly. She helped me through alot of the stress of everything! I highly recommend using Arlene!

Arlene is so genuine and sweet! We really could have not asked for anyone better. She was so responsive throughout the whole process and answered every question we had. Thank you Arlene!!

Rev Arlene was amazing! It felt like she knew us her whole life upon first meeting. Our service was beautiful and a perfect match for us spiritually. The ceremony flowed seamlessly! I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day thanks to her!

Arlene it’s amazing person great sensibility and irradiated love thanks Rev.

We would highly recommend Rev. Goldman to anyone looking for a qualified, kind, and easy officiant for their wedding. Arlene made sure we had all of the information we needed before he big day and helped us craft a ceremony that was truly our own. Everyone has different ways of expressing themselves, and we really feel that Arlene took the time to get the details right for us. She was a pleasure to work with and she really made our ceremony feel romantic, loving, and just what we wanted.

Paul and Arlene were referred to us by my wife's brother as he used them for his wedding as well. We could not have asked for a better recommendation. They were extremely helpful from day 1. Not only were they very responsive to any questions we had before the wedding but the were very helpful making our ceremony run smooth. We highly recommend them to anyone and we would be happy to speak with anyone to help choose them for their special day.

We were so thankful Arlene was part of our wedding day. She brought so many wonderful ideas that added meaning to our special day.

We decided to use Arlene and Paul based on a recommendation from our venue and from all the wonderful reviews we read. They both did a fantastic job, Arlene wrote the ceremony, and Paul was the officiant. Many of our guests commented on how beautiful it was, and it definitely exceeded our expectations! Everything went smoothly throughout the process and they made it all simple and walked us through step by step. Would highly recommend them to anyone!

Arlene Goldman is a top 5% rated officiant in the nation and it truly shows. Her ceremony was beautifully written and spoken. Arlene's communication is nothing short of amazing. She made sure to find the correct tone we wanted for our ceremony, constantly ask our input and was quick to answer all of our questions. We received our ceremony a few weeks before our wedding and it was perfect. We are so grateful for all your hard work and for really understanding us and delivering what was a beautiful ceremony.

Arlene was so great and easy to work with. She has you follow out questionnaires so she can make your ceremony personal. She is so caring and communicates very well so you know exactly what to expect.

Rev. Arlene helped me customize a perfect vow renewal, she was easy to work with and incorporated everything I wanted into the ceremony. She is extremely relatable and her method of delivery was sincere and loving.
