About
Hi! I'm Nate Craddock, and I'm an inclusive wedding officiant serving the Ohio Valley region. No matter where your journey has brought you or what your background is, I want to make your special day truly unique. If you and your spouse come from different faith traditions or no tradition at all, I'm dedicated to working with you to create an incredible service that will knit together your stories in a way that gives witness to the beauty of your relationship. I'm an ordained and seminary-educated minister in a historic tradition with on-the-ground experience as a mental health professional in addition to my pastoral work. I want to walk alongside you through the entire wedding process, offering counsel, direction, and care as you have need or want while big-day preparations occupy your thoughts. I will strive to create and celebrate a service that is meaningful for you and honors the love that has brought you and your partner together and will sustain you in your new life. Moreover, I enjoy the privilege of crafting and celebrating interfaith and non-religious services for couples; as well, I gladly welcome LGBTQ clients. I believe when people choose to formalize their relationship and have friends, family, or even just an officiant witness it, there is something extraordinary and transformational that happens in the lives of the couple. Walking alongside others as they move through this process is an honor that I hold in high esteem, and I love helping others celebrate their love.

After some bad luck left my husband and I without an officiant for our wedding Nate stepped up and saved the day, even when the wind blew out the unity candle as we were lighting it, he recovered very well for us to continue. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

It was our pleasure to meet Nate as the officiant on our wedding ceremony at Freeman Lake, Elizabethtown, KY. His intelligence, wisdom, kindness, thoughtfulness and high professionalism impressed us from the first moment that we spoke with him. We are very grateful for the warm and caring he exhibited. He made sure that the ceremony was one that we wanted for our wedding. He was early, kind to all of our guest and had a wonderful personality. He made everything possible to make our ceremony gentle, sweet and unforgettable. It was MAGIC!

My husband and I hired Nate to be our wedding officiant and he was great. He helped us get ready for our wedding vows and handled all the paperwork on his end so we didn't have to worry. Even though my husband and I aren't religious, we really wanted Nate to be our officiant because he does so much for the LGBTQ community including creating LGBTQ affirming spaces in the churches he works for. Nate was great about respecting our wishes to keep the ceremony secular, and he was still able to make the ceremony meaningful for us. Nate is especially gifted with words both written and spoken, so I know he will be able to provide a profound ceremony for all his future clients! Thank you Nate for helping make our special day especially unique for us.

We discovered Pastor Nate as a referral and are we excited about it! Pastor Nate has a way of listening to a couple and offering advice from his experiences as well as understanding yours. As a same-sex couple it was very important for us to seek out an officiant that was comfortable with performing ceremonies as well as devout in his/her faith. Pastor Nate is all that and a bag of Kale chips! He is very genuine in offering his suggestions but also flexible to accommodate your vision, wishes and flow of the ceremony! We are excited to have him join us in our celebration of love and commitment and can't wait to have him at our wedding. TRUST ME, you won't be disappointed and he is well worth the time, travel and money. I would recommend him for opposite and same sex weddings! He's awesome and very easy to work with!!!

Nate is dedicated to his work and is truly hands on. He made sure everything went exactly the way I wanted and was respectful of every wish I had. I could not have dreamt of a better outcome for the day. I'd recommend him to everyone. You'll never find someone as caring, genuine, and dedicated as he is. Thank You Nate. The day would not have been the same without you.
