Meet Jeff

My name is Jeff Maszal and I’ve officiated weddings for over 30 years. Seminary trained and a former parish minister; I started Wedding Ceremonies by Jeff after several years in the corporate world.

I am an Ordained Minister in good standing with the United Church of Christ (UCC) licensed to officiate weddings in Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia (DC). Born and raised in Detroit, MI, who lived in London, England from where I traveled the world. Today, I live in the Del Ray neighborhood of Alexandria, VA.

My Approach

I’ve worked with couples of almost every faith, race, nationality, culture, and sexual orientation. I even married my dentist and physical therapist (performed the ceremony).

Working together, we will create a ceremony that reflects who you are as a couple, what you would like in your ceremony, and what your family, faith, and/or culture may request or require.

My services include: Officiating Wedding Ceremonies • Vow Renewals • License Signings • Premarital Counseling • Ceremony Design Consultation • Baptisms • Funerals • Proxy Services in DC for Marriage License and Monument Permit applications.

My Weddings

I officiate traditional, contemporary, religious, non-religious, spiritual, secular, interfaith, fusion, multi-cultural, civil wedding ceremonies, and everything in-between.

You are free to customize your ceremony as you wish.

My wedding venues include several premier venues in the Washington DC Metro area and Northern Virginia wine country. The Inn at Little Washington, Mount Vernon, Jefferson Memorial, Stone Tower Winery, the Hay Adams, Willard, and Mayflower hotels are just a few.

Yet some of my favorite weddings have been in the couple’s backyard and in a Panera and Starbucks.
