About
I make your ceremony a highlight of your special day! Each event is special and should have its own design. I provide marriages, handfastings, and non-denominational services that are designed to meet your needs in the Triad and Triangle areas of NC and beyond. I cater to all races, sexual orientations, and religious preferences. I have been providing clerical service since 1998.
As ordained clergy, all payments are honorariums. Discounts are available for educators, first responders, and military active or retired personnel.
I help you decide what parts of your special day you want and create a ceremony that is as unique and individual as you are. It's your ceremony!

We could not have asked for a better weddingofficiant. From our very first conversation, [Name] was thoughtful, professional, and genuinely invested in making our marriage ceremony meaningful and personal.
The ceremony was beautifully structured, heartfelt, and perfectly paced—every word felt intentional and true to us as a couple. [Name] captured the significance of marriage with warmth, grace, and sincerity, creating a moment we will cherish for the rest of our lives.
Our guests are still talking about how touching and memorable the ceremony was. If you want an officiant who elevates your wedding ceremony into a truly special beginning to your marriage, we cannot recommend Rev Dr. Peter Hertzberg highly enough.

Rev. Hertzberg married us on 9/27/25 and was absolutely perfect! What a kind hearted soul. It was really hot out and bugs kept flying his way but he didn’t let it stop him or interrupt in any way. He did his thang! We received tons of compliments. And pricing was more than reasonable. It was a great ceremony & so from the bottom of our hearts, thank you again so very much!

My husband Tom and I had a last minute need for a very unique venue and wedding day, at that. Reverend Hertzberg could not have been more accommodating, understanding and wonderful all around to work with. Taking care of everything and leaving us with nothing to worry about. He also provided professionalism, with a light hearted attitude and a calming presence for all. We couldn't recommend him higher, whether your event is small and intimate or large and elaborate...you won't be disappointed! -Jaime and Tom Rucker
