Your Ceremony is the HEART of your Day. It can be Serious and Fun at the same time…

Father Jerry Bellamy

Who I Am & What I do?

Many, many years ago, when I was in 3rd grade, the Priest at the local Catholic Church would call my mother and father on Saturday mornings and ask if “little Jerry” could ride his bicycle to the church and be an altar boy at weddings that day. Of course, I always loved getting away from home for a few hours. I became the “Go To” altar boy for weddings in my town. After 12 years of training, ordination as a Catholic Priest, and more than 50 years of experience, I am still the “Go To” person for weddings.

Every couple is different, and so is every wedding. That’s why I take the time to understand your love story, your vision, and your family dynamics to create a ceremony that feels authentic, inclusive, and memorable.

“Your ceremony can be exactly as you want AND still be a bridge between what you want and what your families might want or expect. I will help you build that bridge.”

Christine & Silvio Wedding Story

Paige

Father Jerry was amazing! He made my husband and I very comfortable. He met with us before hand and walked us through the whole ceremony. He customized everything to us as a couple and did not just do a generic ceremony. I can not recommend Father Jerry enough. I am so happy we chose him to officiate our wedding!

Bride - Groom

Father Bellamy was professional, funny, flexible, spiritual/religious and created the perfect ceremony for our casual - double wedding - on the lake. My son and his fiance were an addition to our original plan and Father Bellamy included them into the ceremony perfectly. Every one of our guests commented on how lovely, unique and calm our wedding was... and we definitely contribute a lot of that to Father Bellamy - his planning, style, delivery and overall personality. He listened to the four of us and was attentive to our wants and expectations. We would not have changed a thing 🙂

Christian

Father Jerry Bellamy was a wonderful officiant who provided a truly meaningful ceremony for our wedding. Early in the planning process, he kindly met with us to guide our ceremony preparations. He offered excellent recommendations, infused the process with wit and humor, and was very accommodating in incorporating different traditions into the ceremony. On the wedding day, he delivered a powerful experience, projecting his voice clearly to everyone in the audience. My wife and I wholeheartedly recommend him to other couples searching for an officiant. He will not disappoint!

Alex

Father Jerry was amazing, my wife and I were both raised Catholic and wanted to incorporate God into the ceremony without having to get married in the Church. Father Jerry was very responsive and helped us plan the perfect ceremony, we couldn’t be happier!

Jacqueline

Father Jerry was an amazing wedding officiant! He made our ceremony so personal and lovely, and it was such a beautiful combination of a traditional ceremony with a light hearted contemporary twist. The process of planning our ceremony was extremely straightforward and easy, and he also made the paperwork/legal element easy for us by explaining exactly what we had to do. Our families mentioned afterward what a beautiful ceremony it was, and how great they thought Father Jerry was.
