Beyond Perfect!

Joe was so sweet and super easy to work with! From the very beginning when I first reached out to him to the very end when he performed our ceremony, super professional and definitely knows what he is doing. He made our ceremony short and sweet with meaning behind everything and that was exactly what I wanted. I received so many nice compliments on how great he was after the ceremony was over, he definitely left a good impression on our closest friends and family. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant who can do pretty much anything you can imagine!

Last minute!

My husband and I had to get married quickly for personal reasons. The courthouse had given me the phone number for Joe and he was AMAZING to work with! He was able to book us for just 2 days later and we even had to change the location on him the day before. He was extremely flexible and professional and I am so glad that we were able to have him officiate our wedding!

Excellent service!

The wedding was excellent. Joe arrived early. Introductions were had and then the wedding commenced. And after, filled out paperwork and then Joe was on his way. When asking Joe questions, he was very responsive. The day after the wedding, Joe had submitted the paperwork to the county. I was referred to Joe by Winona County. Joe is LGBT friendly. I had a very small wedding with only immediate family members.

Made the impossible possible!

Rev. Glentz was everything we needed him to be for our day - and on extremely short notice! We decided that after 15 years, it was time - during Covid - and he was willing, able, and wonderful. He honored our vows-related requests, respected our wishes for "social distance", and was willing to stand outside for a bit in December to help us get hitched : )
I would recommend him without reservation!!

Joe did a wonderful job helping us say "I do!"

We met Joe through a few family connections, and he did an amazing job with our ceremony! He was incredibly helpful with getting us started on our script, offered ideas and examples and met with us prior to the ceremony to review everything. He is professional and extremely kind, I would recommend Joe to anyone!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
