Services Offered

World of Wisdom Ministry facilitates wedding ceremonies, rehearsals, vow renewals, and civil unions for couples of all faiths and backgrounds. A complimentary in-person meeting is always provided to discuss Reverend Derek’s ceremony planning process and your particular wedding vision. Once booked, Reverend Derek endeavors to make the crafting of your ceremony a collaborative process to ensure your wedding is fully reflective of your relationship, beliefs, and traditions. Ceremonies can be as simple or elaborate as you'd like. He will provide you with an exact copy of the text of your ceremony well ahead of your wedding to ensure he has your full approval.

Kind, Professional and Genuine

Derek was absolutely amazing. When we needed to switch gears and find a new officiant a few months before our wedding we found Derek. He was. Blessing to us, he led us through every step of creating an amazing ceremony that was customized for us. He listen and responded with great suggestions and praised our ideas. The collaboration together as a team to make our day so memorable was outstanding. Derek was so professional, but is very personable and made us feel so comfortable. We had the upmost trust in him for our big day and he came through better than we could ever imagined. From first meeting, to the rehearsal and ceremony, Derek was one of the best things that happened to us for our wedding.

Very responsive to our requests.

Derek was very responsive and accommodating to what we wanted in our ceremony. He cared about all of the details of the ceremony and took pride in making it special. Derek offered some creative ideas that we ended up using.

Simply Amazing

Derek was a pleasure to work with. Very professional but also has a great sense of humor that helped tremendously the day of our wedding when I was feeling a little stressed out lol. Even though our wedding date was over a year and a half out from when we first contacted Derek, he was always there for us, and always checking in with us.
What I like most about him, was he let us do things our way, and did our ceremony just how we wanted.
Never once did he try and talk us into anything we didn't want to do. He has lots of good information, quick responses to emails, a just a great guy all around. I highly recommend and if I could give more than 5 stars I would. Absolutely amazing!!

I enjoyed working with World of Wisdom Ministry. He communicated with me as a vendor better than most and was very personable with guests and event staff. The ceremony was short and meaningful. I would highly recommend World of Wisdom Ministry.
