    Words do not give any justice..

    How can I express this best. Aarón and Patria are so very well prepared, professional, and genuine. They are the officiates I hear couples talking about. Weather it’s from the an experience they have had or are looking for. After first meeting Aaron and Patria not only did we know we wanted them to perform our ceremony, we knew we would would become great friends.

    It was wonderful and beautiful!!!! Thank you for trusting in us and giving us the opportunity to be partbof your special day! We are blessed to have you in our lives!

    Unforgettable & Beautiful Ceremony!

    Pastor Aaron and his wife Patria were an absolute pleasure to work with to make our wedding ceremony perfect for the two of us! They both worked with us to create a beautiful ceremony that was tailor made to us, including part of our journey together, as well as creating a non-denominational ceremony based on our needs. They guided us through every aspect of the ceremony, asking us lots of questions and giving us suggestions that really helped put our minds at ease. As part of our ceremony, we decided to include a sand ceremony, which was a lovely addition based on their suggestions. They provided the colored sand as well as the vase to pour it in, and they even capped the vase after with wax so that we could keep it as a special memento! They also provided us with the order of events book that was used in the ceremony, which is something we hold dear to us to this day. We cannot thank Pastor Aaron and Patria enough for making our day so unbelievably special and a day we will never forget. They are both extremely kind, patient, and caring. We highly recommend using Happy Thoughts for anyone looking for a wedding officiant. :)

    Happy Thoughts Weddings's reply:

    Joseph thank you for your kind words!!! For us it was a blessing to share with you both one of the most important days of your lives! Your love is eternal, that grew more each day no matter time and distance! We wish you all the best! That your love continue growing and many happy thoughts to you both!

    Wonderful!

    Aaron and his wife were great to work with! I was in a bind last minute before I found them and they were so nice to work with. They met with us quickly so we could meet them. He did a great job! I can't imagine a better ceremony. He was funny and also incorporated a bit of religion into our ceremony. I would say an absolute perfect fit. Willing to work with you on what kind of ceremony you would like. You can definitely tell that both Aaron and his wife love what they do!!

    Better than I could have asked for!

    Pastor Aaron and his wife Patria are a great team! They truly care about you and are very flexible, friendly, and understanding. Pastor Aaron did better than I could have imagined at the ceremony! He did a great job sharing our story, incorporating humor and of course making it God centric.
    Thank you Aaron and Patria!

    Incredible experience!!! Lucky to have Happy Thoughts Weddings apart of our big day.

    Pastor Aaron & his wife Patricia took excellent care of me and my husband. If you are looking for a Pastor with a great personality, attention to detail and years of experience, Aaron is the Pastor for you. Pastor Aaron worked with us to plan our dream ceremony, he took our hand and guided us through the process, while allowing us to put our own spin on things. He was very open to any suggestions we had. His prices were very affordable and he was willing to work with us. My husband and I highly recommend him and would not have changed a single detail of his services on our wedding day. If you use Pastor Aaron's services, you will not have a worry in the world on your wedding day. Thank you Pastor Aaron!

    Happy Thoughts Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Molly for your kind words!! Patria and I are happy that we were part of your Big Day!! It was an honor and a blessing to share with you and your family the beautiful occasion of your wedding ceremony!

    Pastor Aaron was such an amazing officiant for our wedding! We had great communication throughout the process, he was always on time, he called or met with us every time something was planned! He was so down to earth and easy to talk to! The ceremony may have been the shortest portion of our wedding, but it was my favorite and I think it went perfectly!!

    Happy Thoughts Weddings's reply:

    Hey you Happy Couple!!!!!



    I hope you both had a great weekend and I most definitely trust you are having a great honeymoon still. Rule is it has to last at least 1 year minimum....no term date!!!! Thank you for the kind words you gave us on Weddingwire it means a lot to us. You have a great family. It was a joy to speak with them.

    Have a great evening and as always from me to you both,

    Happy Thoughts.

    Pastor Aaron was exactly who we needed for our ceremony. He delivered impeccable professionalism and catered to our personalities perfectly with personalized service and vows. He did not charge extra for our rehearsal and his price for service was within our budget and WAY less expensive than others we looked into. He even filed our marriage certificate paperwork for no extra charge. Pastor Aaron comes very highly recommended for your special day.

    Aaron was fantastic for my wife and I. We had him do pre-marital counseling as well as being our officiant, and his flexibility with our work/travel schedules is what made it work and kept our stress levels down. Aaron is happy to hear any suggestions and adapt to whatever services you need for your special day. Loved his advice, and enjoyed meeting and getting to know him and his wife.

    Happy Thoughts Wedding made our day absolutely perfect. My husband and I didn't know exactly what we wanted besides something sweet and intimate for our vows. We don't know of anyone personally who would be able to officiant our wedding so we found Happy Thoughts on weddingwire. Pastor Aaron and his wife Patria went above and beyond to make our day even more special than we imagined and they were quick to meet up and help along the way. We would give them more than 5 stars if possible!

    Happy Thoughts Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Kristen and Zach for choosing Happy Thoughts Weddings and for letting us be part of your Big Day!! You are starting a wonderful new adventure in your lives! Enjoy every minute! A big hug from us!!

    We are so happy that we chose Pastor Aaron to officiate our wedding!! I didn't realize how stressful and overwhelming it can be to plan a wedding. We got around to choosing our Pastor at the last minute. Lucky for us, we found Pastor Aaron on Wedding Wire. After seeing his pictures and reading his reviews, we knew we had found the right officiant. We emailed Aaron and set up a meeting right away. The wedding was only two months away so we are getting nervous. He was able to keep us calm and ensured us that he would handle everything. We met several times over the next few weeks. During this time he learned a lot about us. He was able to use the information that he gathered to make our wedding ceremony special! He exceeded our expectations. We are so happy with Pastor Aaron. If you are reading this review and are looking for an officiant for your wedding, look no further. I know you will be happy with Aaron! Thank you again!!

    My husband and I are so happy we chose Pastor Aaron to officiate our wedding. Our ceremony was exactly what we were looking for, it celebrated our relationship and was respectful of our Eastern and Western cultures. Pastor Aaron really allowed us to customize our ceremony and wanted to meet with us twice to have the ceremony be perfect. He and his wife work as a team and are very responsive to emails. They are also both extremely nice people. We chose to have a sand ceremony within our wedding and Pastor Aaron and his wife gave us the sealed sand and container as a gift. I would definitely recommend Pastor Aaron.

    Very accommodating and professional. Pastor Aaron and his wife make a wonderful team and ensure they have every detail covered with the couple in order to be the perfect fit for the couples big day.

    Pastor Aaron officiated my 4/9/2016 wedding. He and his wife Patria were wonderful to work with. Both very attentive to our needs and ideas. We were originally planning a catholic ceremony but started to get really frustrated with the process so last minute, we did a 180 and decided we needed to go a different direction. Pastor Aaron was very responsive in replying- we actually met up a day or two later in a coffee shop to discuss our needs and what we were looking for (which we didn't really know what that was at the time). After meeting, it was a very easy decision to make, we really liked how genuine and helpful he and his wife were. They put us at ease and gave us some direction and some ideas for our ceremony. It was lovely. All in all, they was such a pleasure to work with and I wouldn't change a thing about our ceremony. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

    Pastor Aaron was the perfect officiant for our wedding and did an outstanding job from start to finish. He met with us twice before the wedding to ensure we were all on the same page and that he understood all of his wishes. He kept email correspondence the entire length of the process and met all of our needs. He showed up for the rehearsal (at no extra charge) to walk through the ceremony and calm our nerves. The day of the wedding, he showed up early to talk with each of us before the actual ceremony. The ceremony went flawlessly and the sand ceremony was perfect. He even capped the sand and gave it to us as our wedding present. He does a fantastic job and works with you through the entire process!
