Endorsements
"By far the most consistently professional and personal service you will ever receive. I have been on the DJ side of many weddings where Marty or many of his other officiants have performed a ceremony and they have not only made that ceremony very special with their attention to detail, but they have also shown in little ways that they care about the union that is taking place. "
"I have been working with LoveNotes for several years and they always bring a sense of warmth and decorum to every wedding. They make the couple feel at ease and that reflects in the photographs. Anytime you can make a bride and groom relaxed on their wedding day you know you've done a great job. Marty and his company are a pleasure to work with."
"A fabulous choice for your once in a lifetime minister. It's easy to see why Marty is so busy, he conducts ceremonys like a professional. He knows just how to add a little bit of humor to take the tension out of the groom or bride and doesn't feel he has to talk and talk. He's to the point, and simply the best choice I've seen for anyone looking to hire a minister to marry them! I sat down to lunch with Marty recently, and the biggest reason I can think of, for why he does such a great job, is that he is genuine and simply cares about others ahead of himself. "
"I refer Love Note to all the brides I work on. I used them for my wedding. That is how much I like them. They were able to fit our needs. I was adopted and had just met my biological family and they were attending our wedding. Marty knew how delicate this issue was for my family. He referred Ken Savage. Now this was in 2005, so this tells you how long I have been referring Love Notes. I will continue to tell everyone, that is getting married, to use Love Notes. Michelle Mokry, Michi's Hair Design, www.michishair.com"
"Marty, his talented wife Carol, and his professional associates all provide exceptionally meaningful, beautifully executed ceremonies. I always tell my brides that they will feel they have known Marty forever after one visit! He just has that special knack for making each bride and groom feel special and completely at ease."

The minister assigned to us was Rev. Ken Savage. I talked to him on the phone initially but we did not meet him until our reheasal the day before our wedding. We was very impressed with him. He was very comforting to me on our wedding day because he knew that I was nervous. He told me that everything was going to be OK and of course it was. In the end, we had a beautiful ceremony that we treasure in our heart forever.

Mike Ryherd did our wedding. It was beautiful! He was funny and very easy to feel comfortable. He was great at involving my 7 year old son in our wedding. I had SO many compliments on our ceremony, and have already refered people to Love Notes. I highly recommend them, they make a lot of things so much easier. The book you get is awesome too.

Love Notes is a great company with numerous ministers available. They do this so much and seem very experienced and organized. They give you a wonderful book with tons of ceremony options and lots of guidelines as to the traditional recessional and processional, sample programs, numerous readings, poems.... This is a great option for thsoe who don't get maried in their church.

Ken Savage was a wonderful officiant. He has a wonderful voice and accomodated our every need in a minister. However, he arrived about 5 minutes before the wedding, which didn't bother me because I knew he would be there (and lets face it, me and the girls weren't ready yet anyway) but if you are a bride that this would freak you out I would consider finding another clergy service.

Marty sent a book to help me plan exactly what I wanted. He carried everything out with perfection, and I wanted some very non-traditional elements to a fairly traditional ceremony. There were so many choices and everything was explained great! I would recommend LoveNotes to ANYone!

What a joy it was to use the services of LoveNotes Weddings and especially our officiant Carol Sage. She is such a sweetheart! She was very patient and was willing to meet with us when we needed to and answered all our questions to our satisfaction. She conducted our ceremony as though she had known us for years and had people laughing throughout. We highly recommend Carol Sage for your officiant. You will not be disappointed!

BTW: There is a book they sent to us that was a lifesaver or wedding saver in this case. It had every different kind of wedding service one can think of in there as well as readings and ceremony layouts so you can let LoveNotes know how you want your service to be like. We used that book until the pages fell out!

This company lets you hand pick your vows and has an officiant and a ceremony for all types of marriages. They were so helpful and so prompt with my questions.

We used Russ Donley for our wedding and he was absolutely perfect.

We wanted a non-traditional, non-religious ceremony and he provided just that. He even made my husband and I laugh during the ceremony. He handled our rehearsal excellently and made it a pain-free experience. And our family and friends are still talking about how he was truly able to "get" us and carried that through our ceremony.

I can't say enough good things about this vendor. So I won't try. What I will say is that the ceremony itself was the one thing that went perfectly about our wedding. It was even--well, fun! If you are still searching for the perfect officiant, give them a call. I bet you won't be sorry.

Rev. Younkin officiated our ceremony and did a wonderful job! We were able to have exactly the ceremony we wanted with no problems. We were able to meet with him before hand to make sure he was the approperiate officiant for us and put us completely at ease. It was like meeting up with someone we had already known. He was not cheesy or phoney like some of the officiants we had talked to. He gave us a copy of his book and in it was several suggestions for our ceremony. The book was very well put together and had lots of terrific ideas. Even if you don't use Love Notes, be sure to get a copy of their book. A+ experience!
