    Absolutely excellent

    Gerry was such a dream to work with. Kind, helpful and an incredibly positive demeanor, he put my husband and I at ease through the whole process. He was accommodating to us being out of town and really made our ceremony special. I would absolutely recommend Gerry to anyone getting married in the Greater New Orleans area. Thank you, Gerry for all you did for us!

    thank you for the amazing time!

    Rev. Jerry made our small and intimate ceremony quite nice and low stress. He met us at the site on time and with little pre-planning information. Jerry also made suggestions and led the ceremony vows, which made our day even easier and more stress free.

    Thanks Dr. Schum!!

    Fantastic Experience W/ Rev. Jerry

    Our ceremony was perfect. The vows presented to us were spot on and everything was great. Great personality, he cared about our happiness and union, and was easy to work with from start to finish. We highly recommend!
