NJ Wedding Officiant and Elopement Services
Your Trusted New Jersey Wedding Officiant | Faith led. Love focused. Legally recognized.
At One Flesh Boutique Unions by BWM Travel Agency, we understand your wedding day is more than a ceremony it’s a sacred covenant before God.
We provide licensed and ordained wedding officiant services for quick legal signings, faith-centered elopements, last-minute ceremonies, and boutique-style micro weddings.
Our team of Christian officiants in New Jersey serves couples across the state and beyond with professionalism, prayer, and purpose.
What an Officiant Does & Why You Need One
A wedding officiant/ordained minister for weddings is much more than someone who says your vows.
Your Officiant:
- Legally solemnizes and validates your marriage
- Guides the ceremony flow and ensures tradition
- We will honor Christ faith elements
- Signs and submits your marriage license to the correct registrar
- Answers legal requirements (witnesses, license timing)
- Handles coordination with your vendors or timeline (Larger Ceremonies)
- Fills paperwork the next business day (never same-day unless permitted by Registrar)
Without a licensed or ordained officiant, your marriage cannot be finalized.
When you apply for your marriage license, the Registrar’s Office will ask for your officiant’s name before approval — that’s where we come in.
What Role Does a Wedding Officiant Play?
Your officiant is both a spiritual guide and a legal witness.
At BWM Travel Agency, Margaret’s approach is rooted in professionalism, peace, and prayer.
Here’s what we handle:
- Initial consultation to confirm your date, location, and ceremony type
- Preparation guidance, including marriage license instructions
- Custom ceremony structure — from welcome to vows to closing prayer
- Marriage license completion and filing
- Optional faith-based elements like scripture readings or blessings
You’ll never have to worry about missing paperwork, awkward transitions, or legal oversights. We ensure your ceremony is both valid and beautiful.

Understanding Officiant Services vs. Elopements
While officiant services and elopement packages may sound similar, there are key differences and we provide both.
Officiant Services
An officiant service is for couples who already have a venue or location chosen such as a church, event hall, park, or backyard and simply need a licensed Christian officiant to perform and file the marriage ceremony.
As your officiant, we travel to your ceremony location, lead your service with professionalism and reverence, and ensure all legal and spiritual elements are fulfilled.
You can choose the tone of your ceremony legal, simple, or traditional and we’ll handle everything from the license filing to your personalized vows.
Elopement Packages
An elopement officiant service is ideal for couples who want a complete, all-in-one experience handled by us.
This includes ceremony structure, coordination, and even the venue.
Elopements can take place:
- At your chosen location (home, park, beach, or garden)
- Or at one of our office locations for a private, courthouse-style signing
Both options are faith-based, legally recognized, and officiated by our ordained New Jersey ministers.lly recognized, and fully officiated by our licensed NJ team.
How to get married quickly in New Jersey
Whether you’re planning a traditional ceremony or a last-minute elopement, here’s how to make it legal in NJ:
- Apply for a Marriage License
Visit the municipal clerk in the town where your ceremony will occur. Both partners must appear in person.
There is a 72-hour waiting period before the license becomes valid. Out-of-state couples must apply where the ceremony will be held. - Schedule Your Ceremony
Choose a quick marriage signing, elopement officiant service, or full wedding ceremony.
Select your preferred location — office appointment or mobile service. Bring two witnesses (available for a small fee if needed). - Get Married
Exchange your vows or declaration of intent. Sign your license.
We’ll file your paperwork with the registrar the next business day, and you’ll receive your certified copy directly from your municipality.

Faith Statement on Marriage
At One Flesh Boutique Unions™, we joyfully honor the Biblical covenant of marriage as defined in GOD’S Word.
We officiate unions between One Man & One Woman, according to the gender each person was assigned at birth.
While we sincerely appreciate and respect all expressions of love, our convictions are rooted in Scripture, and we are committed to following what WE believe GOD’s Word teaches about marriage.
We understand that not every officiant shares this view, and we encourage couples whose beliefs differ to seek an officiant who can fully align with and celebrate their vision.
“Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.”
— Genesis 2:24
