We met with Pastor Ed before the wedding and he made us feel right at home. Like we knew him for years.

He did a great job. He will be forever remembered as being a very special part of our wedding.

Pastor Ed was fantastic!
He made us feel comfortable, and made the ceremony unique to us and who we are.
He thought of all the little things that make it just perfect!

My husband and I wanted our ceremony to be special (After-all that’s the whole reason for the big day!).And we couldn’t be happier that we found Ed to officiate.

In terms of the ceremony, we knew what we didn’t want (something generic, quick and impersonal) but we knew very little about what normally happens/what could happen as part of a wedding ceremony. Ed made a series of comprehensive ‘planning’ documents available to us, which clearly outlined the various options available to us (references to God or not, readings, prayers, vows etc.) These documents were so helpful and made the whole process of picking and planning a customized ceremony so easy! Ed was so accommodating and flexible with us – wanting to simply ensure that our ceremony was the best possible representation of us as a couple.

On the day itself, Ed was incredible. As ours was a destination wedding, we didn’t get the opportunity to spend a lot of 1:1 time with our vendors before the big day. That can be a worry, especially when you want a personalized experience. But every single person who attended our ceremony remarked on how well Ed seemed to know us! From our various interactions (over the phone, via e-mail, filling in questionnaire’s about each other, attending our rehearsal etc.) Ed was able to build a beautiful, meaningful and very personal ceremony for us. We were totally immersed in each other and the moment, because of the beautiful words he spoke and the way he delivered them.

A thoroughly lovely man, a consummate professional and a genuinely calming and reassuring presence; Ed was an integral part of our day! I will remember him and the beautiful ceremony he created for us, forever! Ed is exactly the type of person you want guiding you through one of the most important moments of your life!

Rev. Bruning was amazing. He took into account both mine and my husbands personalities and made our ceremony, beautiful! He gave a very special prayer we asked to include and when we had an accident with the sand ceremony he rolled with it. It was such a beautiful ceremony, I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great man to officiate for you.

Pastor Ed was great and met my wife and I for coffee the day before our wedding so he could get a feel for the two of us and to talk about how to make this day as special as possible for my wife. The way he views love and how seriously he takes the commitment of marriage is really cool to hear right before your big day. He took care of our license and everything very quickly afterwards and there were no issues at all. Pastor Ed interacted very respecfully with our families who attended. He was a great addition to our wedding and helped make our day as special as it was. Highly recommend him if you are looking for a officiant.

It is never easy to plan a wedding from out of town since you have never met the people/vendors you'll be dealing with. I cannot be more pleased with our selection of the wedding officiant. Pastor Ed Bruning customized our ceremony to make it seem like he had known us for many years. My fiancee and I filled out a short questionnaire about ourselves several weeks before the wedding and Pastor Ed was able to beautifully weave the information into our ceremony to make it seem like we were getting married in our home church. Our family and friends who came to Las Vegas for the wedding were all very impressed by his ceremony and remarked that we couldn't have found a better officiant. He truly made our day memorable! In addition, Pastor Ed changed his schedule to make himself available for our ceremony and we will be forever grateful for his role in our special day. If you're looking to get married at a location away from the Las Vegas Strip and want to avoid an "in and out" canned ceremony, you should look no further than Pastor Ed Bruning/Casual Elegance.

My husband and I were married by Pastor Ed in the backyard of a mansion in Las Vegas. He was absolutely wonderful!!! We truly appreciate Pastor Ed's professionalism as we found a lot of wedding officiants that were cheesy and unprofessional. We wanted an intimate setting with a memorable ceremony and Pastor Ed conducted the ceremony beautifully. He made us feel as though we have always been a part of his congregation and that was extremely important to us. I can't thank you enough Pastor Ed for making our day so special. Our family and friends truly loved you as well and couldn't believe we were so lucky to have found you. I will most definitely refer my friends, family and anyone looking to get married or renew their vows in Las Vegas.

Pastor Ed was awesome. He made everyone laugh a little and cry a little. Exactly what we wanted! The words he chose was beautiful...everyone was moved.

Pastor Bruning was very professional, but most importantly, he was a genuinely kind and caring person. He helped us tailor our out of town ceremony with a meeting before hand. He asked us questions about ourselves and how we met and tied those in to our wedding. He also helped us with the after wedding paperwork in a timely matter. We really loved having him, and would recommend Pastor Bruning to all.

Thank you for coming in and making our moment feel so spealized, and emotionally, we couldn't have asked for a more sincere officant!

He even matched our color theme 🥰, and asked us a few personalized questions, so he didn't say anything that didn't pertain to our lifestyle!
