Young Hip & Married wedding officiant Simone

As a Young Hip & Married wedding officiant, I care about helping you create a wedding that reflects who you are and celebrates your love. I will support you as you start this new chapter together and help you design one of the most memorable days of your life!

I used to be a wedding photographer and after capturing weddings for almost a decade, I realized that it was always the ceremony that got to me. I would often be blinking back tears behind my lens while a couple exchanged their vows.

It wasn’t until a friend of mine, who was also an officiant, opened my eyes to this job that I thought about returning to the wedding industry as an officiant myself. I am honoured and excited to have this role in weddings, one where I can witness two people starting on their marriage journey together!

My wish for you is that your wedding ceremony shows off your uniqueness as a couple. I want to help you create a memorable day that reflects who you are and showcases the love that you have for each other. I consider it an honour to celebrate your love alongside your friends and family.

Book with Simone

We had Simone as our officiant and she was amazing! We told her about ourselves and through that, she wrote up a beautiful ceremony. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. I definitely recommend going through Young Hip & Married to find the perfect officiant!

Thank you so much again for officiating our wedding! We’ve been talking non stop about how wonderful you wrote the ceremony and how personal it was. Thank you for putting such a high level of care into it.

Simone's Story

When I’m not officiating weddings, I work in a high school with students with diverse abilities. Like with my wedding couples, I enjoy supporting my students and helping them reach their goals.

Outside of work and weddings, you may find me out on a hike, reading or working on my new hobby of crocheting (but please don’t ask me to make anything other than a dishcloth!).

My husband and I have been married since 2000 and all these years later, we’re still laughing at each other’s jokes and making time to do new things together. We were married in a very intimate ceremony, which reflected our desire to only have those closest to us be a part of our day. I’ve always been drawn to weddings that truly reflect the couple.
