Introduction: At-The-Altar is a Wedding Services business we offer Month and Day of Coordination as well as Officiating needs. We have been awarded the 2022 Couples Choice award by WeddingWire/The Knot! What an honor. Thank you to all our past couples for your support, rave reviews and business. We hope we can continue to bring that EXCELLENCE to our current and future clients. THANK YOU all very much. Meet the Founder/ CEO: My name is Elizabeth (Liz) Staniszewski. I am an Ordained Minister and Day of Coordinator, ordained since 2018 by the Universal Life Church. My first ceremony was performed for my sister and her partner Justyna - two of the most fabulous women I know. When they asked me to marry them there was ZERO hesitation, The idea of performing their ceremony was amazing and I was overwhelmed with excitement and pride. It was both wonderful and a memorable experience! It took me a while to realize (after many conversations with myself mostly ha-ha), that I was meant to do this. Being part of a couples' event in which they give themselves to each other fully brings me happiness, in that I can help create a memorable ceremony, event and day. It gives me such pleasure to be able to offer our coordination services to our couples as it being such a big day you deserve to enjoy every part of it! So let's get MARRIED! Serving the LGBTQIA+ community SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY - Thumbtack charges per lead. Thank you - We look forward to working with you!

Amazing!!! Simply incredible! I had the honor of working with Liz and her team in May as my fiancé and I were in search of a same day wedding coordinator for our wedding at Rockefeller Chapel which was followed by a reception. She contacted us a month in advance to coordinate schedules and set expectations. She was always punctual and very responsive. She went absolutely above and beyond for our wedding. Our guests highly appreciated her, as we are grateful. If you are looking for a same day coordinator, I highly recommend Elizabeth and her team.

Liz was absolutely excellent! She provided recommendations, when needed. Was extremely detail oriented. Was flexible. And really was pivotal in transforming a non traditional brewery into a beautiful wedding venue. Could not have asked for a better day of coordinator!!

I had very little time to pull my wedding together. I am so glad I came across At-The-Alter! I met with Liz and she and her team handled all the details from there. She delivered on all the aspects she said she would (with her team). They were all incredibly kind and thoughtful and made it so much easier for me to enjoy my wedding day. This team was a Godsend! Thank you so much At-The-Altar!

Elizabeth did a great job officiating our wedding. She was responsive, punctual, and professional 100% of the time. The words she said during the ceremony were absolutely beautiful.

We could not be happier with Liz and her team for their dedication and hard work in their day-of coordination services. They really were the key to the success of the event and made sure everything ran smoothly. They were a joy to be around, worked extremely well with our family during set up, and from start to finish made every moment count. Honestly, no words seem right to show how grateful we are. Thank you so much!
