Wedding Ceremonies by Fr. Noel

Back in Kerry after our wonderful NY wedding in Central Park. Initially it seemed ominous as we considered
a Catholic themed ceremony outdoors while on holiday in New York. We we referred by a fiend in New York to Fr. Noel Clarke
He was down to earth, afforded us the ability to craft our ceremony with a Catholic ethos and spiritual flavor. His knowledge of Central Park was amazing and his choice of the Bethesda Fountain was great.
Obtaining the license was a cinch with Fr. Noel's advise.
Maebh and me are grateful to Fr. Noel who was so warm and embracing of our needs!
Highly...

Hi Noel
Becky and me are delighted to review your services as our officiant.We were blessed to have found you on wedding wire and were so impressed by the array of views that we selected you. And you did not fail us!
A superb and eloquently delivered ceremony caused all our wedding day stress to dissolve and and we had a wonderful human ceremony that delighted the two of us and all our guests.
Many thanks!
Clarence and Becky.

We had to give the full five stars for Fr. Noel because he was what one would hope for to be part of a lasting memory, and we say that without reservation. Kind, flexible, professional and interested in our needs. I can't imagine a better experience. Thank you!

Fr. Noel -- what a wonderful person!

Father Noel did a wonderful job officiating our wedding. The ceremony was beautiful, personalized and light-hearted. Father was prompt in answering our questions along the way.... We were so happy to have stumbled across him through this website! Many thanks Father! Kelly and Chris

Fr. Noel was the perfect officiant for our ceremony. My husband and I had a hard time deciding on an officiant because he is Catholic and I am not, Fr. Noel was able to provide the perfect blend to create a ceremony that we both loved along with our families. He was easy to work with and has a great sense of humor. So many people came up to us after the wedding to say how much they loved him.

We loved having Fr. Noel officiate our ceremony. He was very responsive to our questions throughout the planning process, and he gave us some great ideas for structuring our ceremony. He is very flexible as to what you can include in your wedding as far as readings, prayers, etc., as long as you keep the components you need for a legal marriage ceremony. Thank you Fr. Noel-we loved our ceremony, and so did our guests!

Fr. Noel was a tremendous help to us in planning our Ceremony. He gave us great examples and offered great suggestions to make everything work smoothly. I highly recommend him!!!!!!!!!!

Fr. Noel did a very good job in our wedding ceremony. It was a civil and religious ceremony and it came out very well. It feels like I get married in the church even though it was civil wedding. His fee is affordable compare to other officiant we encounter. Very professional. Highyly recommended!!

I have to be perfectly honest... Fr Noel made my wedding day!! He was perfect. He was both professional and friendly. He made our services all about us. Our family and friends have talked about our ceremony for the last two months. (6-11-11) I would highly recommend him!!

We searched for the perfect vendors-we are so detail oriented- and of all the officiant-Ceremonies by FR. Noel turned out to be a true gem!
Very well priced, relative to the competition, he was hands on from the first day. Quick to respond and always available. When we had difficulty meeting him at his office, he consented to meet us at our home.
he allowed us to take care of every detail and gave us some wonderful pointers when it came to being relaxed on the day.
Highly recommended!

Even though my bride's daughter held up the wedding for a hour so all her friends could arrive, Fr. Noel still was able to make it a extraordinary day.
He made a very tense situation relaxed and upbeat. My wedding was very informal and a lot of fun. My bride is giving me a hard time, she wants to do it again next year. I hope she won't be late for that one too.

Fr. Noel was absolutely fantastic from the moment we contacted him right through to the prompt filing of our marriage cerfificate! He took the time to meet with us and get a feel for the type of ceremony we wanted and then executed it beautifully!

Father Noel performed our wedding ceremony in December and it was wonderful. We had fexiblity in creating our own ceremony and Father Noel added warmth and humor. During the reception several guests told us they loved our ceremony and they were sure Father Noel was a friend of the family!

I found Father Noel through a search on LIWeddings website. I placed a phone call and he returned in within a few hours. After speaking with him, and letting him know what we wanted for our wedding ceremony, we decided to meet in person. During the interview, he took time to learn about me and I felt very comfortable. He is a sweet, kind, gentleman who is a great listener. I explained in detail what we were hoping for and he listened and asked questions. He was really willing to do whatever we wanted to make our ceremony special and personal. My husband and I wanted a traditional Catholic ceremony, with a couple of twists (we did a Celtic hand fastening). We decided to ask him to do our ceremony in NYC. Father Noel kept in touch with me on a regular basis, via email or phone calls. His response to any of my questions was almost immediate. I felt at ease. He emailed me a few days prior to the ceremony and we spoke on the phone to go over things. The day of the wedding, he showed up to meet with my husband prior to the ceremony. The wedding was beautiful. Father Noel was amazing. Everything went as planned. There were several moments in the ceremony where he made everyone laugh (he has a great sense of humor). Our guests still talk about how beautiful the ceremony was, and because it was so personal, many of them thought he was a friend of the family. Our parents (all Roman Catholic) were thrilled, and so were we. We would highly recommend him.

It was a pleasure have Fr. Noel be the one to conduct our ceremony. He was great at getting back to my emails and was willing to change the date with short notice. He made our families feel welcome in his apartment and was very professional and friendly. He made our wedding day a pleasant and enjoyable experience, and calmed our nerves with his relaxed demeanor. I highly recommend him!

We LOVED our wedding and it was mostly in part to Fr. Noel Clarke. When we met with Fr. Noel, we had just been told we were unable to get married in the Catholic Church we had been attending because it was not the church in our zipcode. We were devestated and confussed and decided to start looking at alternatives. We came across Fr. Noel - a wonderful gentleman specializing in Catholic weddings and non-traditional spiritual ceremonies. He is open and loving and accepting...and funny!! Our family and friends were cracking up and thought he added that extra something special to our ceremony! He also worked with us on writing our own vows and prayer and encouraged us along the way with his gentle spirit and kindness. Call him and meet with him and you will know instantly what I mean!!

I found Father Noel through the internet. My now husband and I have been together for over 13 years and we never had the time to get married. We finally decided to make the time and planned a small intimate wedding in less than 10 days. We met Father Noel and was very happy on how down to earth and picked up on who we really are. Our guests commented on how the ceremony was one of the most beautiful ceremonies they ever saw. He was warm and had a wonderful sense of humor.

Thanks to Father Noel, we were able to have the ceremony of our dreams and keep our family and our own intentions intact and content. He is highly understanding of unique familial circumstances and advises you without judging. Our event was an absolute delight and he kept us calm and stress-free with his responsiveness and advice. We truly thank him

Fr. Noel was the officiant for our wedding in Sep. 2010 in Westchester County, NY. I can't recommend him highly enough. He had a perspective on marriage and wedding ceremonies that matched our own but, more generally, he was thoughtful and warm and, from the start, we felt that he would fill the role of officiant wonderfully. Fr. Noel understood our need to blend our families' traditions with our own less-traditional sensibilities. He encouraged us to personalize our ceremony, but then took the time to learn about some of the Indian customs that we wanted in our marriage service (he pulled it off like a pro!). Our family and guests thought he was great (& funny!) and he delivered a memorable marriage service that we both absolutely loved.

My fiance had found Fr Noel Clarke online when searching for a wedding officiant. An appointment was made and we met. The meeting went great and Fr Noel Clarke did a wonderful job during our ceremony. We were very happy with our decision to have Fr Noel Clarke officiate our wedding ceremony. I would definitely recommend him to friends or anyone. :)

I am so thankful that we found Fr. Noel to officiate our wedding! During the planning process he made us feel completely at ease, and was tremendously helpful in providing examples to help us structure our own ceremony. He was professional and engaging and warm. Highly recommended!

My wifes greatist praise was Fr Noels flexability she was very nervous that day and he will work with you and keep a clam cool manner that just made everything perfect.

Fr. Noel officiated our wedding in July of 2010 in Tarrytown, NY. He was a pleasure to work with and gave us the freedom and flexibility to create a ceremony that reflected our values, relationship and personalities. He also knew inherently how to add just the right touch of warmth and humor. Several of our friends and family members came up to us during the reception and told us how much they loved Fr. Noel and the ceremony. We wholeheartedly recommend him.

Father Noel added to a great day. He is extremly helpful, flexable, and most importantly friendly. I would recommend his to anyone.

Father Noel was a pleasure to work with as an officiant. He was professional and met all of our expectations. I would recommend his services. He pleased the whole crowd from young to old.

Father Noel was excellent to work with - incorporating our ideas while bringing his experience to help guide us. He injected humor and a sense of humanity into our proceedings as an Officiant and was a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend him.

We thought everything was great. What was done went above and beyond what we thought we were getting and it worked out fantastically. The ceremony flowed very well.

An excellent choice of Minister. Exciting, affable and so so available. Wonderful ceremony on the day and allowed us to be so so relaxed and ourselves!
Highly recommended
Marty and Jasmine

Fr. Noel worked with us to personalize the service and was a great celebrant

Fr. Noel performed our wedding ceremony on April 17, 2010. Everything was absolutely perfect and he did a great job. He guided us through the process from the beginning and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way.
We give him our highest possible recommendation!

Fr. Noel was so easy to work with, responded quickly to all queries and always supportive of our selections for the ceremony!

Father Noel Clarke was the best he was on time, the ceremoy was the best of all that i have ever attended and he does take his time to personalize your special day. May god always bless you.

Fr Noel is a pleasure to work with.

Father Noel is a well versed, well dressed, polished professional. He acknowledged all the guests and based on just one phone conversation he incorporated our humorous nature into the ceremony. Our guests told us our ceremony was the best they've ever been to and that the Priest was outstanding. I hope in ten years Father Noel will be able to officiate our vow renewals.

GREAT!!!!!

My fiance (now husband) and I loved working with Fr. Clarke. Fr. Clarke was professional, extremely flexible and has a great sense of humor. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding officiant. :)

My partner and I felt very fortunate to have found Fr. Noel online and chosen him for our wedding ceremony in Tarrytown, NY. He was easy to communicate with online and over the phone, and he even checked on us a few times; he was proactive in making sure our expectations were met. We loved the vows he prepared for us, and we were even able to customize them to suit our relationship; we edited the vows together a few times. My partner grew up Catholic and I grew up Protestant; we are both religious in our way, but we also recognize that not all religions are accepting of gay marriages. We felt that Fr. Noel provided a ceremony that was religious but that honored our relationship. Our ceremony was at a hotel, and he was flexible about traveling to our location. He arrived early to the ceremony and was very professional while still adding a warm humor to the occasion. We booked him on rather short notice, and I failed to understand the exact price of his services considering that we did not have an in-person consultation, but we certainly still feel we made the right choice in officiant on our special day. I can't imagine how it would be possible to regret choosing Fr. Noel for your wedding, union, or other special celebration.

The whole process from beginning to end was fantastic. Fr. Noel was easy to contact,responded to all our inquiries immediately and made time to acommodate our busy schedule.The ceremony was smooth and he made sure we were comfortable and relaxed.We are very happy we chose Fr. Noel and wish to thank him once again...Louie n Kerri Vellucci..

Fr. Noel was great.

Fr Noel provided a great service. It was just what we wanted.He listened to our requests and offered helpful advice of his own. We would highly recommend him to any other couples.

Very flexible and low maintenance. Had plenty of templates to write our own vows.

Fr. Noel is professional, engaging and warm hearted. I highly recommended him!

Great Service!

I recommend the services of Wedding Ceremonies by Fr. Noel to make your Wedding Day a one-of-a-kind event that will be remembered and cherished by you and all your guests for years to come. ~~ Angela Neik www.calligraphybyangela.com 214 957 2155

Outstanding services for a day that you will remember forever.

Flexibility and personal attention. An excellent choice for Officiant

Relaxed, flexible, and easy to work with. Ceremonies have always gone smoothly when we have worked with Fr. Noel.

Fr Noel add that extra special touch to any ceremony.

An accepting and open minded officiant can help create a wedding the ceremony that will be most meaningful to you as you start your life together.
