Introduction: Hello! My name is John Parks. I am a certified wedding officiant located on Long Island with a passion for helping people. My interest as a Wedding Officiant began during my service in the United States Army Reserves, where as a Sergeant & Religious Affairs Specialist, attention to detail and proficiency in ceremony were paramount to mission success. Additionally, I also hold a Masters in Social Work from Stony Brook University. Here, I learned that the most important attributes a professional can possess are a willingness to listen, and an unwavering commitment to putting the client first. While my business is certainly new, my experience with public speaking and ceremony is not. A Social Worker’s interpersonal skills, combined with military-grade attention to detail, can deliver a ceremony that everyone deserves on their special day. Congratulations, I hope to hear from you! :)

John was extremely pleasant to work with. He was receptive to our feedback and was an integral part of our day. We would recommend him to everyone as he made everything easy and heartwarming. My bride was ecstatic over the referral we received and will continue to refer him to anyone needing an officiant.
