About EC Matrimony

EC Matrimony

Head officiant

A Portland native, and founder of EC Matrimony, Ernie has become an expert in all things weddings. Having recently stepped away from a career in Marketing/Public Relations, Ernie has taken his business from part-time to full-time in 2021 to help more couples realize their wedding dreams. Throughout his 18 years in the industry, and having performed over 3,000 weddings, it’s easy to see why he’s been featured in bridal magazines, national IG posts, and been featured in Huffington Post twice, and on realty TV. Add to that the dozens of national awards he’s won over the years, and you can tell why he’s in demand as a wedding officiant.

We believe planning your ceremony should be affordable, done in excellence, and performed by someone with experience. That's probably why we consistently get rave reviews about our service. In fact, we're pretty proud of that! Whether you found out about EC Matrimony on social media, Google, Yelp, or on wedding sites, you'll see we're rated 5.0 stars across the board! That's not a coincidence, that's customer service, and success with couples.

In three words: Collaborative, Creative, Fun

  • Ernie knew our hearts

    From the moment my husband and I met Ernie from EC Matrimony, we were impressed by his honest, confident and professional communication style. On the day of our wedding, Ernie's heartfelt, on point and trustworthy approach made the ceremony feel tailored just for us. Despite my lack of preparation, Ernie seamlessly guided us through the wedding, ensuring it was special, humble and full of love. The wedding wouldn't have come together without Ernie's thoughtful contributions, and we are already planning to have him officiate when we renew our vows in the future.

    EC Matrimony was the perfect choice for our wedding officiant. From our first interaction, Ernie was incredibly calm, organized, and professional. He took the time to get to know us as a couple and tailored the ceremony to reflect our personalities and relationship. Ernie's personable demeanor put us at ease throughout the process, and we received a lot of positive feedback from our guests about how smoothly and meaningfully he conducted the ceremony. EC Matrimony's high level of organization and professionalism ensured our special day went off without a hitch. We are so grateful to Ernie and the team for making our wedding ceremony truly memorable.

    EC Matrimony was the perfect wedding officiant for our special day. From the first time we spoke with him, we were impressed by his friendly, efficient, and caring communication style. He was punctual and well-prepared, helping to ensure our ceremony ran smoothly. The quality of his work was truly exceptional - he delivered beautiful, meaningful vows and expertly orchestrated the entire wedding ceremony, putting everyone in place and providing clear direction. He was kind yet straight-forward, and it was clear he knew exactly what he was doing. We feel so blessed to have had such a wonderful officiant, and we would 100% recommend EC Matrimony to any couple looking for an amazing, valuable addition to their wedding day.

    We worked with Ernie and he was absolutely amazing! From start to finish, everything was simple, clear, and smooth. He was incredibly flexible and helped us incorporate religion into our ceremony, shared lots of helpful ideas, and still gave us the freedom to make it our own. On our wedding day—despite it being 103—he showed up with great energy, made the crowd laugh, and kept everything moving seamlessly. So many people came up to us afterward to say how funny and meaningful he was, and how perfectly he captured what marriage is really about
