Long Island Wedding Officiants is an officiant service based on Long Island, offering custom, civil, and elopement ceremonies for couples of all backgrounds, beliefs, and orientations. The team performs traditional, secular, religious, interfaith, multicultural, bilingual, LGBTQIA+, and co-officiated ceremonies, with options ranging from fully custom written scripts to a self-assembling ceremony builder and elopement packages. The organization traces its roots to the 1997 founding of Church of Ancient Ways by Pastor Marie April Gismondi, with the team collectively having performed thousands of ceremonies over the last twenty-five years; Reverend Joe Iadanza took the helm in 2023. Based on Long Island, the team serves Nassau and Suffolk Counties, with availability in NYC, the Tri-State area, and destination weddings. Reviewers consistently describe Rev. Joe as personable and organized, noting that he incorporates personal details into each ceremony, arrives early, shares his full script for couple review, and handles interfaith blends (including Catholic-Muslim ceremonies) with care and respect.
