The Modern Officiant

The Modern Officiant presides over weddings in and around Atlanta, GA. Owner Jemelle Wooten believes that great weddings start with great officiants, and she is excited to bring her enthusiasm, warmth, and expertise to your ceremony. Jemelle specializes in same-sex unions but loves marrying all couples. She believes love is not about gender but about the merging of two souls, and she welcomes all those who feel the same.

Jemelle is a wife, mother, and Air Force Veteran who holds an MBA from Keller Graduate School of Management. She was ordained in 2016 and has been conducting weddings ever since. This professional loves meeting with lovebirds and hearing the story of how they met and fell in love. She will then bring this story to life as they tie the knot before friends and family.

The Modern Officiants performs celebrations both large and small. Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement, a grand affair, or a simple civil ceremony, Jemelle has you covered. She will get to know you and your partner and provide a heartfelt, genuine, and customize experience that honors the unique connection you share. This officiant also offers counseling and coaching in order to help clients prepare not just for their wedding, but for the marriage that follows.
