wedding officiant


Let me tell your story

An ordained wedding officiant for couples who want their ceremony to sound and feel like them, with a particular love for working with queer couples. Based in NYC, working across the Hudson Valley and Connecticut.


Hi everyone, I’m Jaydan Heather

I’m an ordained wedding officiant with a background in comedy and storytelling, based in New York City. My ceremonies are built around one idea: my job is to tell your story. I work with a small, curated slate of couples each year — mostly queer, mostly in and around NYC, the Hudson Valley, and Connecticut — writing ceremonies that aren't one-size-fits-all, but a reminder of why everyone gathered with you on your special day is part of your love story. If this sounds like the ceremony you want, I'd love to work with you.


The process

Every ceremony I write starts with real conversation. I meet with each of you individually, and then together, and I build the ceremony from what actually comes up — the throughlines, the inside jokes, the imperfect moments. Ceremonies are delivered in your voice, surrounded by people that already know and love you.
