I wanted to surprise Jamie, my bride of 18 years, by asking her to marry me again. I originally proposed to her on a beach resort in Mexico, we got married on the coast in New Hampshire and I wanted to do it all over again on another beach...San Diego. What made it even more special was that our daughter Marly and Kayla would be there to witness it.
Rev. Christopher made it easy to work out the details over the phone and online. Even from long distance, I felt comfortable that he would help to provide a lifetime memory...he did not disappoint.
The process was smooth, the ceremony was beautiful, he helped coordinate a photographer and he was friendly and accommodating.
The event (memory) went off better than I could have ever imagined.
Thank you Rev. Christopher

The unique nature of this vendor puts him in a catagory of his own. Reverend Christopher may be a little more expensive than other officiants, but NOWHERE else can you get this level of service. He's relaxed and confident, which you may not understand when you are in your planning stages, but on your special day there is nothing more relaxing than someone who obviously knows what they are doing. Meet with him once, and you'll see immediately that his ceremonies are special. Listen to him talk about them and you'll be mesmerized. Even at your rehearsal, you'll continue to be amazed by his little intricacies. None of these will prepare you for the actual ceremony! As I stood at the altar with my bride, Reverend Christopher continued to surprise me with his attention to detail, his humor, and little elements of the ceremony that really took my breath away. Every single guest I spoke with afterwards commented on his ceremony, and told me it was the most amazing they had ever seen. Make Vows from the Heart the first Officiant you meet with, it will save you the time of bothering to call anyone else.

Rev. Christopher officiated my elopement ceremony at Sunset Cliffs in San Diego and I can't imagine anyone else being able to make our day as special as it was. I was looking for a very simple, no fuss elopement ceremony and was given exactly that. He covers all the bases with you and makes you feel so comfortable with the whole process. The ceremony was short and sweet, but Rev. Christopher's words will stick with me forever. You can tell that he loves what he does, and is grateful to be able to share in so many couples' big days. I would recommend his services a million times over. THANK YOU Rev. Christopher for making our day that much more special!

Reverend Chris performed a 10th anniversary vow renewal ceremony for my wife and I along with our children on Coronado beach. The setting, his flexibility, his well chosen words and personal attention set the tone that captured the significance of the event for both of us better than we had allowed ourselves to believe it would. We left grateful for his part in re-centering the importance of our relationship, always under the stress of a military lifestyle, in a way that broke with the everyday but without the encumberance of anything 'over-the-top' or awkward. Thanks Rev Chris!

Reverend Chris Tuttle from Vows from the Heart is, without question, the best wedding officiant in San Diego. Don't settle for someone else when you can have the best there is.
The most important thing about Rev. Chris, and he will remind you of this, is that he works to serve his couples. He will make you feel like you've known him for years. That's how much he cares about every single couple he marries.
Rev. Chris has a talent for putting couples at ease during one of the most stressful (though happy!) moments of their lives. He takes the whole ceremony process in hand, guides you through it, and makes it look like you knew what you were doing all along. I promise that every one of your guests will not only enjoy the whole ceremony, they'll come to you afterward to gush about your officiant and how amazing he is. I'm serious!
Rev. Chris is also "Mr. Plan D". He has every contingency covered. Forgot the rings? No problem, he has stand-ins. Forgot your vows? He's got a copy, right there. He works with a wireless mic, so you won't have a giant black microphone taking center stage in all of your photos.
Rev. Chris will also work with you to make your ceremony into the wedding of your dreams. I had an unusual request, and instead of telling me, "No," he took it, worked with it, and made it into a special moment for me and my groom.
Above all, Reverend Chris is a professional. He knows what he's doing, an he knows exactly how to make your ceremony both effortless and special. Instead of a long, droning, boring ceremony, Rev. Chris will deliver a ceremony that all of your guests will enjoy while making it the most wonderful moment of your life.
As I said, Reverend Chris is the best officiant in San Diego. Don't hesitate to meet with him. You'll see what I'm talking about.

My new husband and I had our initial meeting with Rev. Christopher last May. He was very informative, did not pressure us at all, and provided us with a handbook that made it so easy to put our ceremony together. We loved the vibe we got from him: relaxed and fun. Although we were encouraged by Rev. Christopher to meet with several officiants before making a decision, we left the meeting feeling like he was the perfect officiant for us and immediately contracted his services.

As it turned out, we were right! He was the right mixture of tear jerking and levity, our guests loved him! We had so many compliments on our ceremony, most remarking that the Reverend's words touched them so deeply and when they were just about ready to cry, he would inject some humor and make them laugh.

The last thing we wanted was a stuffy ceremony, or one that was too mushy or cheesy. Rev. Christopher Tuttle delivered way past our expectations and was a perfect representation of our personalities... relaxed, comfortable, and fun. Our wedding day was perfect, and I couldn't imagine anyone else performing our ceremony!

Rev. Christopher brought a very comfortable and relaxed feeling to our ceremony. His humor helped both me and my husband feel at ease with 150 pairs of eyes on us. Rev. Christopher is very responsive and we were very fortunate to have him as our officiant.

Reverend Tuttle was absolutely amazing! He made out special day more than we could have ever imagined. He set the perfect mood for our ceremony. We never had the opportunity to meet with him prior to the wedding so we did not know him personally before; however, by the end of the ceremony we felt like we had known him for years. We could not have asked for a better experience! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!!

We knew when we met Reverend Christopher that he was a perfect fit. He made us feel so comfortable and relaxed at our first meeting so we knew we had to have him for our special day.

Our day went perfect! It was relaxed, lighthearted and everyone commented on how wonderful our ceremony and Reverend Christopher was....

Highly recommended!

Rev. Christopher was amazing. He came up to me right before the ceremony and asked me what type of ceremony I wanted funny or traditional. I chose funny. It was amazing. He made me relax and really enjoy the ceremony (I now have the nick name giggles from my family). We wanted it short and sweet and non-religious and he gave us exactly what we asked for. After the ceremony we had a lot of guests come up and tell us how great he was and where we found him. I said from the internet and from all the reviews. Well...we found out the reviews are true. He is a 5 out of 5 star rating! I was a little worried about price at first....but he was worth every penny we paid for him. And if I had the choice I would have chosen him all over again.

Another great help was that he took the marriage license and filed it for us. That way we don't have to worry about it at all!!

THANK YOU so much for making our day magical and everything we wanted! From, Brian and Arianna Twining (newly weds - 8/19/11)

Rev. Tuttle was perfect fit for our wedding. His readings all came from the heart and none of it felt rehearsed. He was very accommodating to our plans and really made it easy to set up the ceremony.

We happily recommend Rev. Tuttle to any and all.

Reverend Christopher is amazing! We got married back in August on Coronado Beach in San Diego and had such a beautiful and touching ceremony because of Reverend Christopher. He instantly created such a tender, meaningful, and lighthearted tone throughout our ceremony, which is exactly what we had hoped it. It was beyond perfect to us and we are so blessed to have had him as our Officiant. We received countless compliments throughout the evening about him from our family and friends. According to our guests, there was not a dry eye in the house. Additionally, he is always so friendly and very responsive in getting back to you. We looked forward to our meetings with him because he was so fun and made our experience comfortable and relaxing. I cannot say enough great things about him. Bottom line, you will not be disappointed at all. We are SO incredibly blessed and will be forever grateful to him for creating such a lovely atmosphere for us to begin our marriage.

Rev. Christopher is exactly what everyone described him to be. We're so glad he was part of our wedding day! He was professional, smart, confident and very caring and patient with us. He helped us design a beautiful ceremony. He has a great sense of humor, and not only made us laugh but also all of our guests, every time I felt like I was about to loose it and cry he threw in some little joke or improv that pulled us together, but he also knew when to make the moment serious and special. You can't go wrong with Rev. Christopher, he is great at what he does and even though we only met him once before the ceremony we felt like we had known him for years. Thanks for making our day so great!

Love, Stephanie & Kevin
