We are SO happy we found Father Vince to officiate our wedding ceremony! Although we both grew up Catholic, we were not getting married in the Church and my husband did not want a religious ceremony where I wanted to incorporate some elements of our faith. But we also didn't want just anyone (like an actor or stranger) to marry us so we were so happy to have found Father Vince online. From the first call we knew it was a match, especially when he said "I'm driving the bus and you are telling me where to go". We loved that we got to be involved in planning the ceremony and how religious (or not) it would be. Father Vince made the process so easy - he was very professional and warm. Three weeks before our wedding, COVID arrived and our wedding was postponed. He stuck by us for two years and three wedding dates, checking in on us periodically - not only on our wedding plans but how we were doing as a couple and how we were handling this unprecedented time postponing this major life event. It was always a pleasure speaking with him and our ceremony was absolutely beautiful. Our friends, family and even other vendors commented on Father Vince's sentiments. Thank you Father Vince for always being a part of our story and giving us the wedding of our dreams! O and if you are lucky, his wife Christine may make you DELICIOUS scones.

Father Vince Was An Absolute Pleasure!!!
We can't thank Father Vince enough for being part of our big day. He is an absolute calming presence on a hectic day and his kind words and thoughtful advice are something we will forever cherish. Father Vince officiated my cousin's wedding last summer shortly after my now wife and I got engaged and after the ceremony we both agreed that we wanted Father Vince to officiate ours as well. He took the time to reach out to see how we were doing several times during the pandemic and when we had to move our date, was so accommodating with re-scheduling. We were able to tell right away that he had a genuine care for us and during our phone and skype calls really took the time to get to know us better. We couldn't be happier with the way the ceremony turned out and his personalized touch and anecdotes really made for a special ceremony.

Father Vince is absolutely a treasure!
I cannot praise Father Vince enough! He is absolutely amazing! My (now) husband and I were planning on getting married April 18th 2020 and we didn't know who we wanted to marry us. Once we found Father Vince we knew we found the perfect person to marry us. The whole world was on pause when Covid hit and we were devastated that we couldn't get married on our initial date. Father Vince and his wife was so caring and talked with us as we searched for a new date. We chose our new date for September 19th 2020 not really knowing what the future would be with Covid still around. We decided to just get married in June for a small family ceremony and wait for the bigger one when it's safe and I am so happy we did because we were able to have our family with us and keep everyone safe. Father Vince tailored a ceremony that was so perfect. My husband and I grew up Catholic but we didn't want a super religious ceremony so Father Vince came up with something that was a little bit of everything. The day was absolutely perfect and I cannot wait for the bigger wedding where we can renew our vows all over again with Father Vince by our side.
