Now that we have returned to our regular lives, AJ and I wanted to thank Kevin Knox for setting the tone for our perfect wedding day! I'm not sure if there is any other pastor who would (without anyone asking) clear a wet sidewalk for the bride. We loved the relaxed service and how his experience allowed the flow to seem effortless. Our daughter is shy and was nervous about being part of the ceremony. Kevin worked beautifully with her and naturally slide in the blended family vows during the fun sand ceremony. Sadie did not have time to think about it/stress about it - it was a natural vs staged response. In addition to such awesomeness, Kevin had her sign as our witness! We LOVE that she is our witness!!! We are so glad that Rachel (wedding planner at Discovery Cove) suggested Kevin as our pastor.
Sending much love to Kevin,
Laurie, AJ an Sadie

NOTE: In addition to the above, the step by step instructions provided by Kevin (videos and written material), allowed us to quickly and EASILY plan our destination wedding while in Canada. Kevin was available to answers questions/concerns and responded promptly. If you are looking for a professional - a sure thing - a stress-free wedding ceremony - this is it!

My wife and I could not have asked for a more perfect person to officiate our wedding than Reverend Kevin Knox. First and foremost, Reverend Knox is the reason why our wedding ceremony was able to happen as we dreamed it would! His personable and charismatic demeanor was very comforting when my wife and I were waiting in the vestibule's before we came out to the wedding hall. Before we reached the Wedding Pavilion, there was always this feeling of uncertainty as we didn't quite know what or where we were supposed to go. It was still early post-COVID so I think that had to do with the feeling of a lack of direction from Disney. But once we met with Reverend Knox at the Wedding Pavilion, everything fell in place! He reassured my wife and I that it was going great and it was going to be wonderful. We ran down what was going to happen next and then it was go go go! But that feeling of uncertainty was gone! Reverend Knox dispelled all that once we met him and that was a blessing that we did not anticipate but are so grateful for. My wife specifically remembers Reverend Knox giving her a mint and telling her that everything was perfect and beautiful and it was going to be great! Just those few words of encouragement helped so much with calming her down and getting her ready for our momentous day!
I'll be honest, during the ceremony I don't remember much, but I do remember how beautifully Reverend Knox recited the script that we worked with him on and we could see from the faces of our friends and families how it resonated with them too. Though our time with him in person was brief, it felt as though he was a family friend for years!
Throughout the wedding planning, Reverend Knox was always prompt, friendly and professional. The materials he provided was immensely helpful and we are so grateful for all the help he gave us! As we are not Florida natives, we would have been quite lost without the advice given to us by Reverend Knox.
In regards to the speech that Reverend Knox gave for our wedding, we were shown many examples of religious and secular speeches that he could give. There were many options and choices to make a more customized speech which we felt would be best for our guests and families. In the end, it came out very beautifully (not that I remember it entirely because everything is a blur for the ceremony that day lol) and we could not have asked for a better person to have officiated our wedding. Thank you so much Reverend Knox! It was truly a magical day with you there to marry us :')

BEST OFFICIANT EVER! What can I say our family, friends and us absolutely loved Rev Kevin Knox! He made our Disney Wedding magical - he was there for rehearsal, made our wedding party, parents and us feel comfortable (since we all never participated in a wedding and unsure of what to do), he made us laugh, and was so responsive with assisting us with how we wanted our ceremony to be! Honesty, Rev Kevin Knox is fantastic and we still get compliments about our ceremony and our officiant! He's become apart of our family and apart of our magical day!
