Wedding at White Castle Restaurant
One of the aspects that I enjoy the most about being a Wedding Officiant in NJ is all the places I get to go. I have had the joy to perform weddings at beautiful, elegant venues, amazing chapels, vintage barns and vineyards. I have been to some of the most beautiful beaches at the Jersey Shore (from Cape May, LBI, Seaside Heights, Point Pleasant Beach, Asbury Park, Sandy Hook and more) I especially love the fabulous and fun back yard BBQ’s, as well as historical sites, parks and gardens, museums and aquariums.
Recently I had the pleasure to officiate a wedding at a White Castle in South Amboy! This was first for me and what a great experience it was. The couple was so sweet and fun. I enjoyed meeting their family and friends. The District Manager for White Castle, Haskell Wallace was on hand to make sure everything went smooth.
The ceremony was also attended by the local newspaper and media outlets!
The restaurant was closed to other customers, however the drive thru stayed open which made it more fun and unique. I customized their ceremony with special wording about this iconic restaurant that they enjoy coming to. I left the ceremony with a slider in one hand and fries in the other! The news video was picked up by many outlets; WATCH HERE: USA Today 
So remember I am game for anything- from traditional weddings to weddings at White Castle and anything in-between! For information on my services, Packages and Pricing, Sample Ceremonies see my Website. To check availability fill out my Contact Form

Watermark; This beautiful beach front venue is also located on the Asbury Park Boardwalk. Watermark is elegant, cool, distinctly sophisticated. Its upscale yet comfortable and cool decor makes it one of my favorite unique venues for your wedding. The atmosphere at Watermark works well for a wedding during any season. I have had the honor of officiating weddings there before; the management does a fantastic job. Oh and the best is their one of a kind patio lounge overlooking the ocean!

709, Located in the downtown shopping district of Point Pleasant Beach. Their private “Living room” with their veranda overlooking the main street with its mix of charming antique stores, coffee houses and eclectic stores, makes it another unique favorite of mine. 709 is located just blocks from the beach. It is beautiful during the summer, yet the warm decor and fire place make a great venue year round. When it starts to get chilly out they put heaters on the balcony so you can still enjoy that view.
Buona Sera Wine Cellar or upstairs-located in the heart of the dynamic shopping and dining district of Red Bank, Buena Sera has a lovely upstairs ballroom. It's beautiful Italian, decor and architecture make this a unique venue, but the real gem is the wine cellar! While it is only suited for smaller weddings due to its size (maybe 50 guests give or take) it is beautiful.

I love my job so much! It brings me so much joy. One really fun aspect of this job is all the amazing and beautiful locations I have the pleasure of Officiating Wedding Ceremonies at. I live in Point Pleasant Beach NJ and there are so many great venues in Ocean and Monmouth County that I would like to share with you.
First, I would like to start with small venues. Many people prefer a smaller more intimate wedding and are looking for a venue that doesn't have a 100 person minimum-or even a 65 person. They would also like a venue that offers a private room to accommodate both the ceremony and reception-or perhaps you would like to have your ceremony at a local beach or park and use your venue as a back up.
We have some excellent local venues to choose from! Below are a few of my favorites.
