Officiant Emergency - Please help!!

I just found out that the priest our place recommended is a possible scam artist and my wedding is in 4 weeks!!! It's too early to call my coordinator but I was just wondering if any of you know any officiants I can try in the Ronkonkoma area in case I do need to find someone else asap. I already paid this guy $600 but someone sent me a post from a 2008 bride last November that he scammed her so I'm trying my best right now not to have a total breakdown. God's punishing me for not getting married in a church. Does anyone know an officiant I can try and trust??

Father Tom McCormick is a LIW vendor & he's great. We're using him in October. He's very reasonable, down to earth & funny. His number is 516-241-5647, I think (almost positive) he's in St James.

GOOD LUCK!!!

and just so you know. . I was at a wedding at flowerfield once where the priest didn't show (not a scam. . a communication problem) and flowerfield FOUND someone that day.. they were amazing and just moved everything around to have the cocktali hour first (which worked even better bc we ate then paused!!! ) then the ceremony. . then reception. . so even though you won't need it. . know that they will MAKE ANYTHING happen

Julissa Zambrano does officiant services for $250. She is super nice. Maybe if you explain your situation to her she can even work with you on the price (not sure).

866-919-5294
(she is also a wedding planner, thus the name of the website but she does just officiant services too if you need it.)
