Fun Officiant

Chuck was a great officiant. He helped us to be prepared prior to the wedding and went over everything with us prior to the wedding as well. He showed up on time and was very professional. He has a big personality and that made the ceremony fun and lighthearted. I highly recommend him for all weddings.

Amazing experience!

Working with Officiant Chuck was absolutely wonderful! He is incredibly responsive, quick to answer messages, and made the whole process completely stress-free. He was very accommodating and flexible with our time, which we greatly appreciated. Chuck even suggested a beautiful, photogenic spot near the courthouse that featured a gorgeous water fountain. He was even thoughtful enough to factor in the weather, pointing out that there was a pavilion nearby just in case. Chuck brought a warm, wonderful sense of humor to the ceremony that eased our nerves and made the moment truly special. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant!

Friendly And Fun

We were immediately met with a welcoming and friendly face and conversation with Chuck. He made sure we were comfortable and it was very lighthearted but he also made sure we understood the importance of the day. He gave a great suggestion of where he could do the ceremony and was very flexible even on a holiday! Having an LGBTQ friendly officiant was very important for us and he was so kind! 100/10 I’d recommend him for anyone in the 757 looking to get married!!

Top Notch!!

The gentleman married our son and now daughter in law yesterday in a backyard ceremony and completely blew it out the park! He was very witty and made the ceremony very relaxed. Highly recommended! 5+⭐️

Chuck was a wonderful officiant.

Chuck was a wonderful officiant. He does quick thinking on the spot and he’s very professional . I told him we wanted to write our own vows because that’s what my fiancé and I talked about but on the day of our wedding we switched it to traditional vows and our own. He did a great job even with the switch. He responds quickly when you have questions. He’s very friendly and funny. I highly recommend Chuck(:

Easy going, flexible, and professional!

Chuck is fabulous! We really had a great time working with him - he's very laid back, flexible, professional, respectful, and punctual. He was very accepting of our requests to have a non-religious ceremony, asking all kinds of questions to ensure he customized a ceremony to match our needs and personalities.

Best Officiant!

Chuck married us on 10.19.2024. :)
Chuck was wonderful to work with. He listened to everything we wanted and kept our ceremony short and sweet like we requested. He was so patient with us as we took forever to figure out exactly what we wanted for the ceremony.
We would absolutely recommend Chuck!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I work with a team of other professionals and share the referrals of couples that I am unable to perform because of already booking. Chuck is on that team. He's a professional. Funny. Thoughtful. And would trust him to pitch hit for me any time.
