Adolfo was so wonderful. We asked for some Star Trek referenced and he wrote us an entire Star Trek ceremony. Everyone who came loved it! We are so happy and grateful!

Heather and Drew

Adolfo is an AMAZING officiant! The way he helped us create our ceremony was so easy and made it very personal. We received so many compliments from our guests on how the ceremony was so beautiful and uniquely us. As an anxious bride I immediately relaxed when he arrived at our venue. He’s been doing this for years and knows how to handle missteps when they happen to keep everything seamless. He’s incredibly professional and it’s clear he enjoys marrying couples. If you’re struggling to find an officiant, please stop looking and hire Adolfo.

If your looking for a officiant look no further! A Wedding Your Way is the best around. We had a officiant booked who had a emergency that had to cancel a few days before the wedding. I contacted Adolfo and knew right away this was the way to go. You ever have that feeling without a doubt that you knew everything would be handled and turn out prefect after I spoke with him I knew he was the one. Honestly I am happy the first person backed out now because A Wedding Your Way exceeded my expectations. Very detailed oriented, professional, and prompt. Lastly he will guide you threw the ceremony don’t worry if you say something wrong or miss your cue he is quick to help you recover and no one will ever know.

I can’t recommend Adolfo enough as an officiant. He is extremely professional and organized, which is exactly what you need amid the chaos of wedding planning. He has gone above and beyond to help make our big day happen. Unfortunately, we’ve had to postpone/cancel two times now due to Covid. Adolfo has been understanding and has done everything she can to figure out Plan C. We also appreciate that Adolfo provides couples with different options for their wedding–romantic, funny, whatever you’d like. Highly recommend.

Adolfo has been doing this for a while, and it shows. He seems very comfortable and makes you and your guests feel comfortable as well. My groom and I are not good writers, thankfully Adolfo had some beautiful vows for us to choose from. He made the whole process easy for us. If I had to do it all again I would still go with A Wedding Your Way.

Chen and Phillippe

Dr. Olivas went all in to secure the success of this once in a lifetime event for us, particularly given the many challenges going on due to COVID-19. The speech was so thoughtfully put together, and all logistics were handled smoothly. Strongly recommend.

Daniel and Audrey

We went with Adolpho after reading other good reviews and we were extremely happy with the ceremony. All it took was a short consultation over the phone and some emails and we were all set. The ceremony was perfect, Adolpho is a real professional.

August 15, 2020 @ Jane’s Saddlebag, Union, Kentucky

Nancy and Dustin

Adolfo was amazing! We wanted a non-denominational ceremony, and our tone was to keep it light but deeply personal to the two of us. Everyone kept on saying after the ceremony, that it was one of the best ones they’ve been to. He kept it to the right length, with the exact tone we wanted.

Working with him was easy and he’s easily reachable by e-mail (responds within minutes sometimes). He will also help you find new things/readings if you need. He also helped us with our vows. We met with him once in person to discuss the ceremony.

We were a little worried that he wasn’t going to come to the rehearsal (you can request for him to come, but he really doesn’t need to), but he has all the cues in his script that make things easy.

The ceremony went exactly as planned and we loved it. He does do a small gift to each couple of a word and a reading he writes for the couple. Ours was beautiful and incredibly meaningful to us.

Overall, Adolfo is a wonderful officiant, and is super organized, you don’t have to worry about anything! He was prompt on the day of the wedding, and even prior to that he responds quickly to emails.

Thank you!

Stacey and Anthony

I’m so glad we decided to choose Adolfo for our ceremony on 3/20/20. He was great to work with, very flexible and accommodating for the ceremony layout and made the whole process easy. We were able to choose how we wanted the ceremony to flow and he gave us tons of options on how we wanted the wording.

Everyone one of our guests said how beautiful the ceremony was. Not to mention we got married during the pandemic and he was still willing to work with us, showed up with a smile and helped us have the most special ceremony that we will cherish forever.

Thanks so much!

Adolfo was absolutely amazing. He officiated my brother’s wedding and now mine. He exceeded all expectations twice and knows how to get the guests involved. The ceremony was not boring and was very nicely done.

He is very organized too!! I would recommend him over and over.

Adolfo was truly amazing and such a pleasure to deal with. He really cared what we wanted out of our ceremony and made that apparent right off the bat. His organization and great communication really put us at ease throughout the whole process! We would recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant—he was so amazing!

Marissa and Cody

I can’t thank Adolfo enough for giving us the perfect ceremony. I read reviews before I choose him and they all stated that it was like he had been alongside their relationship the whole time and that is so true! It was like we had known each other for years before the wedding.

He made us feel so comfortable and the many compliments received after the wedding from family was infinite! We all absolutely loved it!

October 4, 2019, @ Canopy Creek Farm – Miamisburg, Ohio

Brett and Kristin

Adolfo did an amazing job at our wedding. He was very professional and personable. We had multiple conversations with him prior to the wedding and he was very responsive. We would have liked to meet him prior to the wedding, however he still did a great job with just meeting us on the wedding day.

We were completely surprised when we received photos from Adolfo. We were not expecting that and really appreciate it.

Joshua and Claire

Perfect! Went better than I could have possibly imagined. The ceremony was our favorite part of our whole wedding! From the beginning, during the planning stages, through the ceremony, and afterwards, Adolfo was professional, and made things fun.

During the ceremony itself, he delivered the perfect amount of humor to help alleviate a lot of the anxiety/nervousness I was feeling, without trying to be a comedian. It was much appreciated.

It really was perfect and I cannot say enough good things. I would gladly recommend to anyone.

Tamar and Josh.

Our guests LOVED Adolfo, and he was smooth, professional, and funny. When we went to pick up our marriage license in downtown Cincinnati, the workers there all knew Adolfo and let us know that we were in excellent hands. He was very flexible when it came to the ceremony script, and let us customize everything to our liking while incorporating some Jewish traditions. I was nervous about planning an out-of-state wedding, but I needn’t have worried!

Adolfo did a fantastic job! He was so easy to work with and very organized. He kept us on track and helped us build the perfect ceremony that we loved. He is so professional, and he did such a job. So many of our guests commented on how great our ceremony turned out because of him! Thank you for making our day so special Adolfo!!

Adolfo officiated our wedding and we were more than pleased with the way everything turned out. Adolfo was professional, organized and considerate to our requests. His experience was invaluable in helping us find the right words and unique touches that will last in our memories.

Kevin and Ally.

Where do we even begin when raving about Adolfo. Not only did he make our ceremony seamless and personalized to us, but he gave us guidance when making decisions early on and gave us a gift people kept talking about after the wedding. Our guests could not stop complimenting us on the quality, smoothness, and emotion of our ceremony as well as how great our officiant was. We will be recommending Adolfo to everyone we know!

Danielle and Robert.

I can’t recommend Adolfo enough. We are still hearing from friends and family how much they loved our ceremony because of how personal it felt, and the credit for that goes to Adolfo and all the effort he puts into making each wedding so special. His responses to my emails were always incredibly fast, and his process for finalizing the script and details of your ceremony is so stress-free, which is a breath of fresh air while wedding planning! He officiated our ceremony with poise and threw in some laughs where it made sense which helped ease the wedding jitters! We can’t thank him enough for the memories he helped us create on our special day!

August 18, 2018 @ The Madison – Covington, KY

Thor and Katie

Adolfo was exactly what we needed to make our day unique and special. Plus, our guests raved about the ceremony! He was great to work with and a true wedding professional. Even though we didn’t meet him till the day of the wedding, everything was perfect. He asked for word that sums up our relationship and using this, he crafted a personalized, unique, thoughtful and researched ceremony that really reflected us as a couple. He also did parts of the ceremony in Spanish, which was a nice touch and truly appreciated by my husband’s family and grandmother. I would recommend him to anyone looking to have a unique personalized ceremony with out all the stress of having to do it yourself.

When I started looking for an officiant Adolfo was one of the first to respond to our post. I was really impressed how fast he is to respond. So about a week or so before hand we set everything in place and day of he showed up on time as promised ready to start going at it. I couldn’t believe the amount of people who said he was such a great officiant. Hard to find people like him anymore. So needless to say I’m sure I’ll be receiving texts on how to contact Adolfo. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.

Beautiful, personalized, absolutely perfect. Adolfo made our ceremony so meaningful and so incredibly special. I think choosing an officiant is one of the most overlooked details when it comes to a wedding. I was on the hunt for someone special and I found that in Adolfo. I wanted people to leave our wedding feeling a part of our love story and he surely made that happen and had all the guests in tears. I met with him to discuss our story and from our meetings and emails he drafted a story of our lives and weaved in details beautifully. He was flexible, so friendly, and awesome to work with. You will be so happy to choose him as your officiant. I also appreciated that he marries same sex couples, because love is love is love 🙂

“Simply put, Adolfo was amazing and exactly who we were hoping to find to officiate our wedding from the start. He was careful, kind and courteous with his questions and really went above and beyond to listen to what we envisioned and help make it a reality. Then on the wedding day, he delivered with a sense of calmness and confidence that put the whole party at ease. His presence commanded attention and yet was not the focus of the ceremony; a feat rarely accomplished. From day one to the delivery, Adolfo was beyond compare. I would highly recommend his gentle manner and professionalism to anyone seeking only the best. Thank you!”

“Adolfo Olivas was wonderful to work with before our wedding. Several choices came up when I was researching ministers and I gravitated towards Adolfo right away. He is very easy to communicate with and answers questions quickly. He can also create any wedding style vows you might like to use. I ended up having a dear friend do my ceremony, but if she hasn’t don’t it I would have loved to have Adolfo do our ceremony.”

Reliable, genuine, and an amazing experience.

“Adolfo was fantastic. On a day where both bride and groom are fretting over every minor detail, he made us both feel at ease. His sense of humor was extremely welcome and genuine and it made for a delightful ceremony. It was a very personalized experience that we both were extremely happy with. From day one, he was quick to respond and ultimately very reliable. He wrote something specific for us based on some words he asked for, and it deeply moved both of us. I was not prepared for such a touching moment but it really did add so much to the ceremony, and for being a total stranger prior to the wedding planning, after that moment it felt like he knew us both so well. I am incredibly thankful we chose to go with Adolfo and I would highly recommend that everyone looking for an officiant consider him. You will not regret it.”
