You make a plan & God laughs but keep the faith and watch what happens!!

Father Joe was amazing to work with. He communicates well, is enthusiastic about your ceremony being everything you envision, and is remarkably human in approachability and relatability. From the first conversation he made us feel we were in good hands. Without invading personal boundaries, Father Joe was called away on personal emergency a few days before our wedding. Despite the circumstances, we were his first consideration and he immediately reached out and informed us that he had already been in contact with another priest who would be covering for him and had already informed him of our ceremony plans and script. Of course we were concerned both for the well-being of Father Joe and for the sudden necessary changes, however we met with our new priest that Father Joe had arranged for us and we LOVED him. We were 100% right to trust the faith we had in him because he took care of us and our ceremony was so genuinely special and beyond what we imagined. Father Che delivered a beautiful ceremony that moved everyone to tears. He was punctual, professional, much more he spoke clearly and with devoted passion to our nuptials. The thing that made us book originally with Father Joe was his his casual yet unquestionable rock solid faith that was truly inspirational for us to have as part of our ceremony - Father Che delivered that same level of religious commitment with that unspoken assured encouragement that our marriage would be filled with blessings and spiritual guidance. I am so grateful to both of these wonderful men of God for being such a major part of our special day and for contributing some of the best moments of that day. I would absolutely book either one of them again in a second!!

Fr. Joe is Family Now

I didn't think I'd end up having such a rapport with my wedding officiant, but Father Joe is so personable, you'd think he's a distant cousin performing the ceremony and not someone hired through wedding wire.

From the very beginning, we were very comfortable with Fr. Joe from just how easy it was to talk to him. He's extremely down to earth, and you can talk to him about anything wedding related or not. Immediately we found not only a wedding officiant, but a real authentic connection with an awesome individual.

During the wedding, Father Joe owned the entire ceremony and the crowd, mixing his candid directness and sense of humor with incredible tact and professionalism when it came to the blessings and prayers. I can't imagine choosing someone else to run the ceremony.

If Father Joe's in consideration, there should be no question. Just book him and be glad that you did.

Best vendor!

Father Joe was one of our favorite vendors to work with for our wedding(s)! We reached out to him back in 2019 where we met with him in his house. He got to know us and we learned about him as well! We were blessed to have Father Joe as our officiant TWICE! After our wedding in 2020 was postponed, we decided to still get married that year. He performed a beautiful short and sweet ceremony for us in his house. Fast forward a year later to our new wedding date, he married us again in front of all of our friends and family. The ceremony was perfectly tailored to us, and he picked such beautiful readings to represent us. He perfectly lightened the mood when we were all extremely emotional. He is such a genuine, caring and authentic person and we were so glad to have him be a part of both of our special days. We received so many compliments from our guests, and they could not stop raving about him. He also offers counseling to his couples and is just an easy and down to earth person to have a conversation with! You are truly in great hands if you choose Father Joe to be your officiant!

Amazing Officient

Father Joe was high on our list of who we wanted at our wedding due to other peoples recommendation, and once we met him we knew he was the right person to officiate our wedding. Afterwards, we had so many people tell us how amazing our ceremony was and how personable and funny Father Joe was. Our whole experience was fantastic and are so glad he was the one to marry us!!

Extremely Professional

Father Joe officiated my wedding back in 2005. He took the time to get to know us, made suggestions of gifts to our parents, etc. Ceremony was amazing! Not only did we hire a priest, we gained a friend!

The best decision!

Father Joe Devincenzo was nothing short of amazing. We met with him at his home, and got to know him first. He flat out told us that he will not marry a couple who he feels bad vibes from. We were originally supposed to get married in 2020, but postponed to 2021. The postponement process was very smooth as he was very understanding! Every phone call we had with him he always would say we can call him whenever we want if we just want to talk or vent. He performed an absolutely beautiful wedding ceremony for us which I still get compliments for. I was even asked for his information the day of because my guests loved him so much. He also offers marriage counseling to all of the couples he marries. He’s an amazing person, very professional & kind hearted. My sisters plan on using him for their weddings as well!!
