The storyteller

Andy Ross is by far the best officiant I have ever seen. I couldn’t have asked for a more caring, engaging person to guide us through the marriage process. Andy really understood us and told such beautiful, vivid stories to explain my husbands and my love. I still have guests speaking highly of Andy and the Ceremony! 😊

Andy was delightful. He tailored our wedding ceremony specifically for us and our story. He even helped us with song selections and his wife was very helpful as well. She was willing to come to the wedding with Andy and handled running the music for our ceremony!!!

Wedding officiant

Warm, personal, humorous, everything we wished for. Andy struck a great balance between reflecting on the importance of the bond we were forming while working entertaining anecdotes from our conversations with him into the ceremony. He spoke in a way that everyone from young to old understood and connected with. I couldn’t have wished for a better ceremony - he took everything we asked for and made it into a perfect celebration that was personal to us

Seriously, the best officiant I have seen. I do 20-30 wedding ceremonies per year as a DJ, and Andy has a great way of combining his personality and humor to every ceremony he officiates. Most importantly, he tells a great story for the couples that he is working with. Highly recommend you check him out if you're getting married!
