Meet Aretha Gaskin

I’m Aretha, a professional wedding officiant and elopement specialist serving New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. I’ve had the privilege of marrying incredible couples for over 10 years, and to put it simply: I love what I do.

Whether you’re planning a small, intimate elopement, a larger wedding or just want to have your marriage license signed, my goal is the same — to make your wedding day seamless, personal, and stress-free.

I’ve performed hundreds of weddings in just about every setting you can imagine: city parks, private estates, cozy backyards, waterfronts, and everything in between.

As an officiant, I bring calm confidence, a touch of humor when it’s right, and a dedication to making sure your ceremony feels true to you.
