The Funny Officiant

“The Funny Officiant”

There’s nothing worse than a long, boring, stale ceremony that doesn’t fit your vibe as a couple and has your friends and family just hoping for it to end as soon as possible. The self proclaimed “Funny Officiant” Nathan Grieve is a licensed, inclusive, professional Wedding Officiant with many years of experience in the wedding industry as an emcee and celebrant. He will use his “quick witted humour”, “old lady squish his chubby cheeks charm” and what his mom calls his “sparkling personality” to help make your wedding ceremony EXACTLY what you want it to be.

Wedding Rehearsals

Rehearsals

Practice? We’re talkin’ bout practice? Some couples want to just wing it and hope for the best, while others want to have every moment practiced and prepared. If your venue allows for a rehearsal and you want to be prepared, I’d love to be there to run it for you and go over all of the transitions, timings and do’s & don’ts for your wedding ceremony.

Legal Ceremonies

Legal Signings

This is a short ceremony (usually between 5 to 10 minutes) focused solely on signing the papers and getting you legally married. Typically it’s just about the paperwork and making it legal in the eyes of the Ontario government, and not about any fanfare surrounding the day. It can be done in your home, a coffee shop, a park or wherever your heart so desires (within reason of course)

Full Ceremonies

Full Ceremonies

Traditional wedding ceremonies are perfect for the classic couple who want a more conventional celebration. The welcome, the exchange of vows and rings, signing the registry and then the smooch, you can make it as traditional as you like, fun or romantic, religious or non-religious, whatever you can dream up, I can make that happen.

“I vow to fiercely love you in all your forms, now and forever. I promise to never forget that this is a once-in-a-lifetime love.”

We had a great experience with Nathan. He has a wonderful personality, and so many of our guests commented on how perfectly he balanced humor and sentiment during the ceremony. He made the planning process easy, especially his well thought out form to customize and personalize the script. We would absolutely recommend him!

There’s really no better word to describe Nathan and what he brings other than amazing. We had the absolute pleasure of Nathan officiating our recent Christmas wedding and he knocked it out of the park. He takes the time to get to know you, injects humour into the ceremony and just makes everyone relax, smile and laugh. It made our day perfect and we would highly recommend him.

We feel incredibly lucky to have had Nathan as our wedding officiant. After experiencing his heartfelt ceremony at another family wedding, we knew right away Nathan was the perfect person to marry us as well. From our very first conversation, Nathan brought warmth, humor and a genuine interest in crafting a ceremony that reflected our unique love story. He made the entire process feel comfortable and fun, while still being thoughtful and intentional. On the day, his calm presence and beautifully delivered words made the ceremony unforgettable, not just for us but for everyone present. He has an incredible ability to strike the perfect balance between sincerity and light-heartedness, leaving our guests both moved and smiling. We highly recommend Nathan to anyone looking for a wedding officiant who’s not only professional and inclusive, but who truly takes the time to make your ceremony meaningful.

Where do I even begin? Nathan deserves 10 stars! We received so many compliments after our ceremony about what an incredible job he did. Our ceremony was an emotional rollercoaster (in the best way) — one minute we were laughing and the next we were sobbing. Nathan was an absolute champion. We had a large wedding party, and he kept everyone on track while still maintaining a light, fun, and relaxed atmosphere. Do not hesitate to book Nathan for your wedding — you will not regret it. Thank you, Nathan. We love you!

We booked Nathan through our venues preferred vendor list and we are so thankful we did. Nathan did an amazing job! Our ceremony was perfect, even without a rehearsal. The process leading up to the wedding was straight forward and easy. There were many options and opportunities for customization in the ceremony script. He checked in on us and the wedding party before the ceremony to make sure we were all on the same page. Throughout the rest of the night we had many guests stop us and say how much they enjoyed the ceremony and how engaging our officiant was! We would 10/10 recommend Nathan!

Nathan officiated our wedding in September and made our day so special. We had so many compliments after the service on how wonderful he was! I think the biggest comment we got was Nathan’s humour. He kept our service short, sweet and to the point with some punch lines just as we requested. We can’t thank him enough!!!

Nathan was absolutely incredible. He joined me in the bridal suite before the ceremony to calm my nerves and bring me back down a bit before the ceremony! Our ceremony was absolutely hilarious and so light hearted – just what we wanted. Professional, kind, compassionate and witty! An amazing person inside and out from start to finish, from booking to wedding day!
