Most often the wedding couple receives complements on the music, the food, the dress, the cake, etc. Yes, we were fortunate to hear those too. In our case, in addition, throughout the evening we heard how fantastic our Officiate was....and he was! Charles Gilbride (yes, that's his last name...LOL) representing www.FortLauderdaleWeddings.com made our ceremony one to remember. From the time we first met with him we knew he would make our trip down the aisle fun and not stuffy. My wife and I strongly recommend you meet with him....you won't regret it.

My husband and I got married on 05/07/2017. We had planned on an afternoon wedding but the Ft. Lauderdale Air Show was going on that same weekend! Up to 300,000 people expected to show up for the air show. There was no way we could changed the date. Charles suggested a "Sunrise" wedding. We cannot thank him enough! He knew down to the second of when the sun would rise. Thank you Charles for waking up before the crack of dawn to watch the sunrise and marry Derik and I !!! I read the vows on the way down, tears went down my cheeks as I smiled at how much they captured exactly how I feel about my husband. The pictures were amazing and we got them back quicker than expected.

In general, I couldn't ask for more. He was very professional and helpful throughout the entire process. From the beginning, he helped us through the process of obtaining the marriage license and how it all works, he was very prompt when answering all my questions, and even emailed me a template of the entire ceremony prior to the wedding date for me to review. Our ceremony went very smooth, all thanks to his expertise. He definitely gave it that extra special touch. Above all, he was very sweet and made the entire process enjoyable. I would definitely recommend him for wedding ceremonies. He is truly remarkable.

My advice is that your special event cannot be in better hands than with Mr. Charles Gildbride. If you want a professional, helpful, friendly, and funny officiant for your wedding do not doubt to call him. From the first call you will feel stress free and he will make you feel that your wedding is as special for him as special it is for you. Thank you, Mr. Charles.

I can't say enough about our November 19th wedding at Deer Creek. Charles was so cordial and so funny. He has the perfect balance between romance and comedic relief. My family loved everything about your ceremony, especially your, "The Art of Marriage" verse that they even asked for a copy. Charles was the best decision we made for our ceremony and we highly recommend him. Thank you so much for making our day special!
