Father Campbell was absolutely amazing! Not only as an Officiant, but when my husband and I first met with him, he was so professional and easy to talk to. Especially after such a negative experience we had at a Roman Catholic church, as my husband was divorced many years ago, Father Campbell genuinely opened his arms to us and made us feel so welcome and happy to get married.
I was desperate to find an Officiant with only a week's notice and Father Campbell was super flexible and was able to meet with us immediately and was very easy to reach over the telephone.
His words during our ceremony were not only perfect, but the way he spoke and said his words made the whole room really feel the love my husband and I have always had for each other.
I have dealt with so many people over the past few months for all sorts of wedding stuff, flowers, DJs, David's Bridal, etc.... and all were a pain to deal with.
Father Campbell is just awesome in every sense of the word! He gets a 5 out of 5 from my husband I !!!! :-)

This man is a blessing from God. We had our main wedding abroad but did our legal ceremony with Seamus in a very small and intimate affair. Because of the way Seamus conducted our much smaller ceremony, I found myself getting as emotional as I did in our "main" wedding where we had family and friends present. Truly a man of God and you cannot go wrong with having Seamus to do your blessing.
