Hi, I’m Shannon, the person behind Married By Shannon. For 10 years, I’ve had the privilege of marrying couples and creating ceremonies that feel personal, joyful, and completely you.
As an Ontario wedding officiant registered with the Togetherness Collective, I offer four types of ceremonies thoughtfully tailored to the kind of wedding day you have in mind.
CUSTOM CEREMONY: A personalized, custom-written ceremony that reflects your relationship, your story, and what matters most to you, surrounded by the people you love.
SIMPLE CEREMONY: An intimate, uncomplicated way to get married, whether in a wedding chamber at a Toronto Civic Centre or at a local park. Perfect for couples who want a brief, yet meaningful ceremony without the big production.
LEGAL SIGNING: Keep it simple and make it official with a brief legal signing, including the required marriage statements and signing of your Ontario Marriage Licence.
ALL-INCLUSIVE ELOPEMENT: Dreaming of something intimate, more adventurous, and a little outside the ordinary? The all-inclusive elopement experiences bring together a beautiful outdoor setting, a personalized ceremony, and professional photography, so you can focus on the excitement of getting married.

The absolute best wedding officiant
Shannon is simply the best
She had us complete a questionnaire that was not only enjoyable to fill out, but also allowed her to create a ceremony that felt deeply personal and uniquely ours. Because we chose to do private vows, Shannon thoughtfully wove many of those personal elements into the ceremony, which made it even more meaningful and emotional.
So many of our guests commented on her energy, storytelling, and ability to capture our relationship so beautifully. Shannon is truly a wonderful person, and it was such a joy working with her.
Thank you, Shannon, for helping make our day so special. We couldn't have imagined anyone better to tell our story.

Hi, I’m Shannon, and I’m so glad you’re here.
I’ve been marrying couples for 10 years now, and somehow, I still get ridiculously excited about the little things, a beautiful ceremony setup, a great love story, a perfectly timed joke, or that moment when a couple realizes, we’re actually married! The little things that actually are not so little.
When I’m not writing ceremonies, I’m happiest outside exploring Ontario. I love a good hike, wandering through beautiful forests, finding a quiet lakeside beach, and taking in all the places that make this province such a beautiful backdrop for a life (and a wedding!).
And a few things that will always make my day better? An iced coffee, a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, and discovering something unexpectedly wonderful in the middle of an ordinary day.
After a decade of officiating, what I love most are the couples I work with, hearing the stories behind their relationship, and creating ceremonies that feel natural, meaningful and completely their own.
If you’re looking for an officiant who will be fully invested in your day, make you feel comfortable, keep things relaxed, and probably get a little too excited about the details right alongside you, I think we’ll get along just fine.
