    Reverend Glynn Ferguson was absolutely perfect for our wedding! Upon our first meeting he was very approachable, friendly, and informative of his ceremony services and the variety Sensational Ceremonies offers. He himself was extremely flexible when I had a snag with a wedding date and had to change to a later date. The professionalism was top notch and I never had to worry about the quality of service he would provide. The options for ceremonies is endless and we were able to really have a more personal ceremony and to our specific style. I always would recommend Rev. Glynn as he is fantastic, but I have no doubt the other ministers, reverends, officiants, etc. with Sensational Ceremonies are just as great!

    Pastor Brian is phenomenal!

    I do not have enough kind words to say about Pastor Brian! He is the definition of responsive and often reminded me of things that needed to be done. He lets you personalize the ceremony to your liking and added in his own personalizations throughout the ceremony as well instead of just reading off of a script. My wife and I received so many compliments on the ceremony thanks to him! He was phenomenal and my wife and I are forever grateful.

    Rev Rick is the BEST in the Biz!

    Reverend Rick is the BEST in the business. He was invested in every moment of the planning process & provided incredible pre-marital counseling as well. His ceremony was perfectly crafted and moved our guests to tears with the sincerity in his speech and timbre. He truly made our ceremony beautiful and was always open to communication if we needed it. You simply cannot go wrong with Rev Rick & I cannot imagine our planning process & wedding day without him! We are so thankful to Rev Rick!

    Amazing officiant

    Pastor Chris was absolutely phenomenal to work with!! Our ceremony was seamless thanks to him. He spoke slowly and clearly, and incorporated all of the elements we wanted. He was always very professional and communicated with us every step of the way. His enthusiastic nature and excitement to be part of our wedding day made us reassured that we picked the right officiant for our big day. I would absolutely recommend Pastor Chris and Sensational Ceremonies for your wedding day. You won’t regret it!!!

    Use Rev. Rick!

    Rev. Rick was amazing! From the moment we first met him, he was so helpful and on top of everything. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but he was always checking in and sending reminders. On wedding day, he was organized, calm and everything was perfect. I will recommend him to anyone who asks. Thank you Rev. Rick!!!

    Chris Thomas is the best officiant you could ask for.

    Chris Thomas from Sensational Ceremonies made our wedding a breeze! He was friendly and easy to work with and most of all was an incredibly fast communicator. We loved that he had extra packages to suit our needs, from ceremony music to cocktail hour music. I would recommend him to anyone!

    Amazing experience with Rev Rick Lackore at The Don Cesar

    We purchased the elopement package with The Don Cesar. We eloped with our family and there was 10 of us total. Rev Rick was amazing! He is very organized and experienced. I felt calm prior and during the entire ceremony. The length of the ceremony was perfect. Rev Rick helped my 7 year old stepson feel comfortable and cooperative with the entire ceremony and all of the photos taken that day (as a side note, his wife Tammy was our photographer per the elopement package with The Don, she was also amazing and they work really well together). Our wedding ceremony was perfect and there is nothing I would have changed! Thank you both so much, we had a great day on December 29, 2023!

    Great ceremony thanks to Rick and Tammy

    My wife and I recently had the pleasure of having Rick officiate our wedding and his wife Tammy as our photographer. I cannot express enough gratitude for the beautiful ceremony he orchestrated. From the initial meeting to the last words he spoke, he was warm, sincere, and showed genuine passion for uniting us in marriage. What stood out most about Rick was his ability to personalize the ceremony and was very communicative leading up to the wedding date. Beyond his remarkable speaking abilities, Rick exhibited a calm and reassuring presence, which was very comforting. He seamlessly guided us through the process, ensuring that every detail was taken care of, allowing us to fully enjoy the moment. Tammy was an excellent photographer and was fun to work with. Furthermore, she was quick with the photo editing and responsive to any requests that we had. We are still in awe of the incredible moments she captured on our special day. You could tell that she had previously scouted the venue beforehand because she suggested photos at locations we weren’t aware of. My wife and I are very happy with the service that Rick and Tammy provided and would not hesitate to recommend them to our friends and family in the future.

    Awesome officiant!

    Greg Gasaway was incredible to work with. He was easy to talk to and really wanted to know about us during our meetings with him. He is very personable and made us feel very comfortable. Greg was readily available to answer all our questions and walked us through everything. He delivered a beautiful ceremony and put in some tidbits from our conversations with him that made the ceremony unique to us. We had such a great experience with him that we asked him to stay after for the reception!

    I can't say enough about how awesome rev rick was for our ceremony early this month in clearwater! He made our ceremony super easy and quick for us and was there every step of the way! He was very fast and efficient in emailing us back with any questions we had. If you're in the Tampa area I highly recommend working with him!

    Great Officiant!

    I was recently married in October, and we were lucky to have Reverend Rick Lackore officiate our ceremony. We really appreciated his professionalism and communication throughout the wedding planning process!

    I would highly recommend Sensational Ceremonies and Reverend Rick to any brides in the wedding planning process! He's great!

    Rev. Rick - Sensational Ceremonies

    We had the pleasure of working with Rev Rick for our wedding for our wedding ceremony and could not have asked for a better experience! He was absolutely wonderful from the first day we spoke all the way through our wedding day. We had the opportunity to meet in person, get to know one another, and work with him to put together our custom ceremony. He truly helped make our ceremony everything we wanted it to be. On the wedding day, he was incredibly professional and made us feel so comfortable, walking us through each step of the way and what to expect. We could not have asked for a better experience and we're so happy to have had Rev Rick there as such a large part of our wedding day. We absolutely would recommend him to anyone getting married!

    Great experience!!

    Pastor Chris Thomas performed our ceremony and we couldn't be happier. We also had him for rehearsal and after meeting him we were at ease. His warm, friendly and funny personality fit right in with ours and we knew we were in great hands with him. Everything went seemlessly. Highly recommend him!

    Great experience!

    My now husband and I worked with Rev Rick for both the pre-marriage counseling as well as him officiating our ceremony and we had a fantastic experience. Being out of state obviously creates additional stressors when planning a wedding, especially when deciding who is going to officiate your wedding knowing it will be a stranger. Rev Rick made that “stranger” thought quickly disappear! He was so friendly and easy to talk with that it quickly put our minds at ease. Completing the pre-marriage counseling offered us a perfect opportunity to get to know each other ensuring Rev Rick would be able to offer a special touch during our ceremony after spending several hours together. He was SO organized, communicative, and helpful throughout the entire process. Whether it was offering suggestions on vendors, name change options, wedding certificate help, and more, he continuously went out of his way to make sure we felt prepared and confident! The rehearsal went perfectly with his help guiding us so everyone knew where they needed to be and when. Our ceremony was absolutely perfect. We are so happy we chose Rev Rick to be apart of our big day and highly recommend any couple, especially out of state couples, to use him as their officiant!

    Rev. Rick 1000%!

    My now husband and I had been together for over 12 years before we got married so when it came down to planning our wedding, I wanted nothing but the best and the hire of Rev. Rick as our officiant fit the criteria perfectly! From the very first email exchange with Rev. Rick I knew we had our officiant. He dove right in and was immediately extremely helpful and warm and laid everything out for us step by step and provided links for even better clarification! After we met with him via Zoom for our initial client consultation, we decided to also have him perform our pre-marital counseling sessions which only deepened the comfort. Rev Rick was just a delight to work with. Extremely personable, prompt caring, knowledgeable and just all around a good guy
    who treated us, from the very beginning like people he's known for years. You can tell he really loves what he does. We didn't just feel like "another couple". We love Rev. Rick and would recommend him over and over!

    Rev. Rick and Tammy (photographer) worked well together at our wedding

    Rev. Rick (the officiant) and his wife Tammy (photographer) worked wonderful together at our wedding. Rev. Rick helped us customize a beautiful small beach ceremony that was perfect! Tammy took care of the photography and did a fantastic job! They were both very professional and patient. They both made everything go perfectly. We appreciate everything that they did for us.

    Perfection!!!!

    What can I say.... Rick and Tammy were an absolute dream to help us plan our special day. It may sound a little cringeworthy, but it was honestly faultless. Whether it be the communication and online calls prior, the information provided to get ready, the recommendations for places for the event, the day itself - We could honestly never have expected what we received.

    As daunting as it seemed coming over from the UK to renew our vowels with people you have never met in person, I could honestly not recommend them more. Beautiful people inside and out and incredible at what they do.

    All I can say is thank you for all you did to make our day so special. We wish you the best for the future, hopefully our paths will cross again some day!!!

    Rev. Rick is an Amazing Officiant!!!

    From our initial conversation, Rev Rick Lackore proved himself to be professional, amazing, and most importantly, true to the Word of God. He catered to our specific preferences. During the ceremony, he was welcoming and entertaining. Our guests were all so very pleased with how he conducted our wedding. He was natural, seamless, and sincere. We had the most beautiful ceremony under the clear blue skies-he was a major part and will always be remembered. We are forever grateful to Rev. Rick for making our day perfect!

    Rev. Rick was a pleasure to work with. He was detailed oriented and very organized. He helped us with choosing our ceremony and added a wonderful balance of intimate, personal and a touch of humor to our special day. I highly recommend him you will not be disappointed!
