Simple and Easy

Tom was great! He made things so efficient and easy. We’d recommend him for anyone looking to do a non-faith based ceremony.

Great experience!

Judge Armstrong did a fabulous job as officiant for our wedding! He was professional and organized AND warm and friendly -- both in the planning stages and on our wedding day. He gave us many options for what our ceremony could be -- and let us craft it to be exactly what we wanted. And, he was very understanding when we forgot the marriage certificate at home on the day. We highly recommend him.

Excellent experience!

Tom made the entire experience go so smoothly. His web site is so helpful and answered all our questions. I love how he has vow ideas and we were able to pick and choose our vows to make them personal for us right from the web site. He responded promptly to our emails and offered phone calls if needed. Very professional and kind. We are so grateful for him.

Tom Armstrong has been a pleasure to work with in weddings over the years. When a bridal party tells me that Tom is the officiant, I know I am in good hands. I like the fact that I can count on following his cue during the ceremony with ease. He adds that special touch to a wedding that all couples really appreciate. He will make everyone in the bridal party comfortable, and make sure everyone is on the same page to provide a smoothly run ceremony.
