Personalized and professional!

Tim was very friendly, easy to work with, organized, and professional. He made the part of the minister the easiest part to take care of for a wedding, and I was never once worried about anything from his side of things. He had a questionnaire which allowed for our ceremony to be personalized to us, which was super important for us. But he also stresses that it can be however you want it! He asks about what kind of ceremony you want to fit your idea of your wedding. Ours was perfect 🥰

Great experience with Tim!

Tim came recommended as an officiant from our venue. From our first conversation I could see why! He is an awesome guy with such a kind demeanor and was a great choice to officiate our wedding. He took the time to ask questions to get to know us and tailor the ceremony to what we wanted. We got so many compliments on him and the ceremony! It was made personal to us and he did such a great job that a lot of people thought he was a family friend! I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Highly recommend Tim Cole

Pastor Tim Cole did a truly wonderful job officiating our wedding. He created a ceremony that felt incredibly personal, meaningful, and perfectly tailored to us as a couple. His warm presence, thoughtful words, and genuine care made the entire experience so special. Many of our guests told us how much they loved the ceremony—it was heartfelt, authentic, and beautifully done. We’re so grateful to Tim for making our wedding day even more memorable.

We’re so thankful to Tim for being a part of such an important day in our lives.

We were in great hands!

My husband I had Pastor Tim officiate our wedding and do pre-marital counseling with us. We enjoyed every bit of working with Tim! He was flexible throughout the entire process and really made the counseling, ceremony, and details all about what we wanted. We’re so grateful to have found Pastor Tim!

Blue Ridge Ceremony

I can not say enough great things about Tim! He answered my questions, gave great suggestions, he was more than willing to grant our requests, and made us laugh during the ceremony which is greatly appreciated more than I can say.

We recommend

Tim was very responsive and we knew our ceremony would be lovely after we read the draft he uses for wedding ceremonies. He had us fill out a questionnaire to learn about us and the ceremony we were planning. We didn’t get the chance to meet Tim until our rehearsal as we live out of state. He was reasonablely priced and a good fit for our wedding ceremony. His price included the rehearsal, which come on who doesn’t need someone to lead the practice run before the real thing. But apparently others charge an extra fee for this service. He even incorporated the sand ceremony we wanted and participated by pouring the white sand during the ceremony. I would recommend Tim to those that are searching for a wedding officiant no matter the reason. My parents liked him and thought he did a good job as well. Definitely recommended!

As requested

Mr. Cole worked with us well to develop and provide the low-key, stress-free experience for which we were aiming. Well organized and very helpful as well as very flexible. He provided a basic ceremony we were able to customize to create our desired environment/atmosphere and ceremony.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
