Incredible experience and wedding ceremony! Father Vince is the BEST!

We feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Father Vince. If he is available for your wedding day, you should absolutely do it! I was a bit hesitant to hire someone to officiate our ceremony (rather than asking a friend or family member), but our experience with Father Vince changed my mind. As a same-sex couple, we couldn't get married in the Church that we wanted to, but wanted to have a priest who had experience with both giving sermons and counseling couples (and of course someone who supported our relationship and desire to get married). Father Vince was the perfect person for us.

Throughout the process, he was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and willing to accommodate all of our requests. He genuinely wanted to get to know us, understand our relationship, and create the type of meaningful wedding ceremony that we were after. His pre-wedding questionnaire led to some great conversations between my wife and I, and our discussions with him during our meetings were also really helpful! (I think about his marriage advice quite often!) He also welcomed us into his home for our final pre-wedding meeting and his wife, Christine, made us delicious scones and when we were finished meeting, insisted on driving us to the train station back to NYC. They are such kind and thoughtful people.

Perhaps most importantly, Father Vince did an incredible job officiating our ceremony. So many of our guests came up to us after the ceremony (and told us in the weeks that followed) how impressed they were with him and how the ceremony was so meaningful and special. During the ceremony, Father Vince spoke to us directly while also engaging our guests. We can't thank Father Vince enough!

If you're seeking an officiant who will craft a personal and beautiful ceremony that reflects your love story, values, and traditions, Father Vince is the perfect choice. He is not just an officiant; he goes above and beyond by taking care of all the little details while you prepare for the ceremony.

Amazing officiant, HIGHLY recommend!

Choosing Father Vince was one of the easiest decisions of our wedding planning experience. We knew we wanted someone who had the same values as us and didn't feel like a stranger was up there speaking on our behalf and Father Vince delivered! He is definitely a family man and we loved that about him. It was great getting to know him over the several months leading up to our big day via zoom and then finally being able to meet him in person. He challenged us (in a good way) and made us think deeper about our relationship and future together as a married couple. We had a lot of say in the ceremony and he offered his advice many times. The ceremony was perfect and we got many compliments from our guests. We are so grateful to have found him and look forward to keeping in touch in the future. Thank you Father Vince!
