Paj'e Watts

I felt a deep calling to support and celebrate love in all its forms. I wanted to be able to officiate weddings and other meaningful ceremonies in a way that is inclusive, personal, and spiritually grounded. It was a practical step toward doing work that aligns with my values—uplifting others, honoring sacred moments, and helping people feel seen, loved, and supported during life’s most important milestones.

I’m originally from New York City and currently live here. While NYC has always been home, I’ve also had the opportunity to live in other places, including Pennsylvania and Georgia.

With my online ordination, I hope to create inclusive, meaningful, and memorable experiences for individuals and couples during some of the most important moments in their lives. My goal is to offer a welcoming and non-judgmental space where love, commitment, and spiritual connection can be celebrated—regardless of background, orientation, or belief system.

I am non-denominational and choose to focus on the core teachings of the Bible, emphasizing the life, ministry, and message of Jesus Christ. My faith is rooted in building a personal relationship with God through prayer, scripture, and service. While I respect denominational traditions, I feel called to pursue unity in the Body of Christ and live out the Gospel in a way that reflects love, humility, and grace.

What makes my ceremonies special is the intentional focus on honoring each couple’s unique love story while creating a sacred, welcoming, and inclusive space. Whether it’s a marriage, same-sex marriage, or vow renewal, I work closely with each couple to design a ceremony and craft a customized script that reflects their journey, values, beliefs, and personalities. Every ceremony is written with care, weaving in personal touches, meaningful vows, and spiritual or cultural elements as desired. I bring a spirit of openness, joy, and authenticity to every celebration, making sure each moment feels personal, meaningful, and unforgettable.

I’m happy to travel to various locations to officiate ceremonies. While I’m new to officiating professionally, I’m very familiar with New York City, Westchester County, and the tri-state area, and I’m excited to serve couples throughout these communities. I’m open to a variety of settings—whether it’s a city rooftop, a local park, a private home, or a traditional venue—and I bring a flexible and enthusiastic approach to every ceremony. I also offer intimate elopements for those looking for a more private or spontaneous celebration. I’m open to traveling beyond these areas as opportunities arise.

In addition to officiating weddings, same-sex marriages, and vow renewals, I see each ceremony as a sacred opportunity to celebrate love, unity, and commitment. My role as an officiant goes beyond just performing a service—it's about walking alongside couples during one of the most meaningful moments of their lives. I am open to incorporating cultural traditions, rituals, or languages that are meaningful to the couple.
