The ministers at Love Notes are truly a dream come true. We were married by Ken and I must say with some last minute scheduling/changes I only got to meet him right before the ceremony and he conducted the ceremony in such a way that was truly unmatched its as if I had sat and talked to him for months before the wedding. He personalized it beyond the ing in such a way that made us feel very connected as if we had known him for ages. During the ceremony he spoke to us as opposed to preaching to us it's difficult to put into words. Quite honestly our wedding was grand but the highlight of it was the ceremony. Make your life easy and go with Love Notes its not worth risking it elsewhere.

We had Rev. Ken Byrd officiate our ceremony, and he was fantastic! Their ceremony planning materials were very helpful and easy to work with, and Ken did a great job of fitting a bit of personal info into what we'd planned.

I can't say enough good things about our minister, Marty Younkin, founder of LoveNotes. He brought such joy, laughter, and calmness to our ceremony, which was a mix of traditional messages and contemporary sentiments. To help us prepare for our big day, Marty took the time to meet with us in person and on the phone, and discussed in detail our ceremonial options. My favorite thing about Marty is how he listens and makes every effort to personalize your ceremony and his ideas were great. On the day of our wedding, he visited with both of us separately to see how we were holding up. He gave us hugs, and then performed the ceremony to such a tee that he had the audience captivated. He was funny, warm, and just wonderful. We highly recommend Marty Younkin to minister any wedding. You'll love him.

I just wanted to send you a quick email about my wedding ceremony last night. Mike Ryherd was our minister. He was unbelievable! We loved our ceremony, everyone thought he was wonderful and he truly made our wedding ceremony memorable. I had almost every guest I spoke to comment on how wonderful the ceremony was. I felt very comfortable with Mike, he was such a good choice for us. Both Kevin and I were very pleased and will be eternally grateful for such a beautiful ceremony.
Thanks so much to you Mike and to Love Notes! Yall gave us the wedding of our dreams!

I'd highly recommend Rev. Marty Younkin. Our wedding was very small and he helped create a friendly, calming atmosphere. We had not met beforehand but he did exactly what we wanted. A true professional.

We loved our Officiant from Love Notes, however he didn't show up for our rehearsal and declined on our invitation to the rehearsal dinner. Also, on our wedding day, I had to remind my officiant to preform the "all in the family" section because it was not in HIS outline when reviewed. Even after i REMINDED him the day of our wedding, litteraly 20 minutes before i came down the isle, he STILL didn't read that section of our ceremony. I was VERY bothered by that because my husband has children and it was a very special way for the boys and I to be united as a family unit and to allow them to feel a part of our new family. Other than those major issues, the ceremony was beautiful and the rest of the cermon went very well.

Rev. Martin Youkin officiated our interfaith wedding on November 7, 2009. Working with Marty was a pleasure from beginning to end. He was always prompt in responding to any inquiry. He really listened to what we wanted for our ceremony and carefully guided us as we tailored a ceremony that everyone in attendance could appreciate and enjoy. He worked closely with our rabbi and the end result was a beautiful ceremony that everyone from both faiths loved and complimented. If you are looking for someone for your wedding ceremony, I highly recommend both LoveNotes and Marty.

Our daughter and now son-in-law chose Marty Younkin of Love Notes to officiate their October'09, garden wedding; we were so very pleased with their choice to go with Love Notes. There was a microphone issue (not love notes responsibility) and here is what our guest had to say.
All of our guest committed on what a superb job Marty did and everyone seemed to be able to hear just fine given the microphone malfunction. You handled that very well. The ceremony you provided was better than we could have ever expected! Thank you again so much for a day we will always remember.
With kind regards,
Fred and Julie of Dallas,Texas

Marty Younkin was the officiant for our wedding. He was wonderful! He made us feel comfortable from the first time we met him. At the rehearsal he was extremely thorough getting everyone in their places and walking us through the ceremony. At the wedding I was trying to keep the tears back and Marty injected humor which completely helped me regain my composure. We had so many compliments on him and the ceremony! I would HIGHLY recommend him. A friend of mine was married in 2006 by Mike Ryherd who was great as well. You will not be disappointed with LoveNotes!

I first heard about LoveNotes when Marty officiated my friend's wedding. It was fun, unique, touching and beautiful. Marty was already booked on my wedding date and suggested I use another one of his employees, Randy Dicken. I was hesitant since Marty is so great, but Randy far surpassed my expectations. He made my husband and I feel incredibly comfortable with our ceremony...and he truly made it our ceremony. It was personalized, but not cheesy. It was touching, but not sappy. It was humerous but not a stand up comedy routine. It was the perfect balance of everything we could have possibly asked for.
We met with Randy several times to go over personalization for our ceremony. He was easily reachable, met us when it was convenient for us and honestly took our requests seriously. We wanted guests to hear a little bit about us throughout the ceremony and that's exactly what he did. It was awesome.
Every guest we talked to commented on the ceremony. How it was touching and unique and they had never heard anyhthing like it. And most of all, everyone said it was 'us'. Randy took the time to get to know us and make our ceremony 'ours.'
I would recommend Randy Dicken to anyone looking for 'their ceremony'. He will meet your needs and then keep going. Thanks Randy!

Dwayne Pedroza was our officiant for our wedding ceremony and we couldn't have been happier. He was always available to answer my questions and to meet with us, and worked with us to totally personalize our ceremony. He also is a very nice person, very genuine and personable. He put all of our worries about "what to do and what to say" at ease.

Carol Sage was our minister and she did a beautiful job. My husband and I put together our own ceremony with things that we found online as well as parts from the book of ceremonies we were given by Love Notes and she was more than willing to do anything we asked.
Every question was very quickly answered (some emails returned within minutes) and Carol was so warm and kind. She took all the time we needed and made sure that before she left the rehearsal that we felt comfortable with everything.
She also managed to keep the mood during the ceremony serious but light-hearted. She kept us at ease so that we weren't both blubbering/crying messes. It was the perfect ceremony!!
