  Great job officiating our wedding

  Dr. Clarke did an amazing job officiating our wedding. Since we were living and had to coordinate everything from out of state and did not do a rehearsal, we did not actually end up meeting Dr. Clarke in person until the day of the wedding but he was very professional, helpful, and responsive the entire time. I highly recommend.

  After we decided we needed to change ministers just FIVE days before our wedding, I contacted Dr. Clarke. Within an hour he responded, came over to our home to meet with us the following night, was willing to work with us and meet our needs and was so helpful during our rehearsal. He did a wonderful job at the ceremony. He turned a near disaster into a wonderful marriage ceremony.

  Dr. Clarke was wonderful. HE helped us make a service that was both traditional and personalized at the same time. His demeanor is very friendly but proffessional. He provided a beautiful service for us and even helped us decide the logistics of the ceremony. Also his voice reminds me of the southern ministers I am used to since childhood. Very comforting. I would definitely use him, especially if you are planning a destination wedding. There wasnt a dry eye in the house after he was done.

  Jackie Clark was an amazing officiant, she was kind, patient, fun and just a blessing to have perform our ceremony. Jordan was the photographer and I had over 500 pictures to choose from and they were wonderful. He let me make my own suggestions for the pictures but still guided us to getting some amazing shots. I emailed them several times up until my wedding and they always responded promptly. I highly recommend them. :)

  Dr. Clarke was nice to work with. He lets you make up your vows and just goes with the flow if that it what you'd like. He had different "packages" to pick from that fits you and your wedding. Definitely recommended.

  Dr. Clarke officiated at my daughter's wedding at Myrtle Beach, SC. The wedding was very informal and she wanted fun and upbeat. He was all that and so much more.

  Dr. Clarke was amazing to work with. He helped us with the flow of our ceremony and even had some great site set up suggestions. Dr. Clarke worked around our schedule because we were doing a destination wedding it was important he could meet us at the times we were in town. We didn't have a wedding planner and it was wonderful that Dr. Clarke was able to step in and run the rehearsal. It put me at ease as the bride to know that the day of the wedding the ceremony would be flawless because Dr. Clarke would take care of it. Thank you for being part of our wedding! I will recommend you to anyone having a wedding in Charleston.

  All my husband and I can say is that Dr. Clarke was wonderful. He was such a huge part of the wedding being perfect. The ceremony was so tasteful and beautifully done, while remaining intimate and personal. We highly recommend Dr. Clarke to anyone. You'll be extremely pleased with his service. We couldn't ever imagine the wedding being anything other than amazing. We can't thank him enough for the life-long memories we were given. It was the best gift ever!

  What a wonderful and memorable wedding experience we have thanks to Dr. Clarke. We had last minute changes and he was very flexible and able to work with us to meet them. Dr. Clarke is professional and organized, answering emails and phone calls in a timely manner. In addition, he creates a relaxed atmosphere and will work with you customize your ceremony. I would highly recommend Dr. Clarke to any couple planning to wed. We were very impressed and we are so glad we chose him to create this special day with us.

  If you are looking to get married in the coastal area of SC or in Charleston, look no further! Dr Clarke is wonderful. We were married in Folly Beach September 09. We purchased the elopement package which included the ceremony, cake, bouquet and pictures. They took care of everything and it was exactly what I wanted. His wife did a great job on the pictures. Dr Clarke was so relaxed which helped us relax. Everything was perfect!

  Very prompt and helpful. Has been doing this for a long time so knows exactly what works and what doesn't. He goes anywhere to perform services and can make anyone feel comfortable. He is probably the most wanted officiant in Charleston so he books fast. Make sure you look with plenty of time.

  We had an idea in our heads of how we wanted our beach wedding ceremony to go. Dr. Clarke made that idea come to life. Dr. Clarke showed just the right amount of seriousness, and was respectful to us and our wedding party. His demeanor made our ceremony intimate, which is what we wanted.
  
  Thank you,
  Daniel & Jacquelyn Lopes

  While I had a positive experience with Dr. Clarke in his officiating our beautiful wedding ceremony in Charleston, I have been disappointed with the final outcome of the package I purchased. I followed up multiple times about the status of my wedding photos, with no response at all, and when they did arrive in the mail this weekend (nine weeks after the ceremony), the photos were amateur quality at best, and not edited or touched up in any way.
  
  If you are looking for a simple but memorable ceremony experience, I can recommend Dr. Clarke and the musician that he works with, but I would advise to book professional photography separately to ensure you capture your special day with high quality shots.

  Dr. Clarke was wonderful as our minister... however, his wife, Jackie Clarke, was extremely disappointing as our photographer. I've had many people ask me if we 'just had a friend take our photos'. Many of the pictures were extremely dark and not professionally processed as you would expect from a 'professional' photographer. When I asked her to reprocess them or send me the RAW files so I could try to lighten them, she told me she would 'sell' me the RAW files individually for $20 each. Seriously? Don't waste your money. You can never get this day back.

  Lowcountry Wedding Minister - Dr. Clarke (Non-Denominational Minister)'s reply:

  Kellie, my apologies for your frustration. Back in 2010 the DVD with all images covering your wedding was shipped to you. We never received any concerns or complaints at the time. Sounds like your frustration is surrounding your recent request of the photographer to pull your images which have been stored for four years and resend. Feel free to give me a call and I'll see if I can't get something worked out that is fair and reasonable. Merry Christmas and Aloha! Dr. Clarke
