Meet RYTA
When I officiate weddings I always feel like a proud auntie of the couples I’m working with. I love helping them feel comfortable and at ease on their big day and the emotion I feel while relaying their love story comes straight from the heart. The fact that you are considering me to officiate your wedding humbles me and reminds me of the responsibility I am honoured to engage in. When we meet, you will find me optimistic, friendly and easy to communicate with, almost like we’re family!
I have been married since 1985 and am the mother of two grown sons. Our family moved to Canada from Armenia in 2005 and have been living in Edmonton ever since. In 2022, I had the privilege of organising my oldest son’s wedding in Armenia!
When I’m not doing weddings, you will find me baking, gardening and spending time with my family!
Whether you speak Armenian, Russian, English or Hebrew, I look forward to working together with you to craft a ceremony you will love and am excited to stay in touch over the coming years.
We were looking for an officiant who felt like family. Ryta fit the bill perfectly! It felt like we were getting married by our aunt. She was kind, funny, accommodating and professional.
If you are looking for the perfect officiant, you've found her!

When we found out that Ryta is fluent in Russian, we were so excited! She did such a great job of putting our minds at ease by answering our questions and prepping us for our fully customized ceremony. Thank you Ryta for being amazing!

“We used Cory Dueck as our wedding officiant and he was AMAZING! He went above and beyond the months leading up preparing for the wedding. Giving us no worries at all! And the wedding day he made everything go perfect!!!!”
