Josiah was Epic
We chose to do 4 pre-marital counseling sessions with him as well, 2 were in person and 2 were remote. These were well worth it, Josiah's input was invaluable. He was excellent at stimulating conversations that we may not have had otherwise.
Because he got to know us so well beforehand his words during the ceremony were that much more impactful. We loved how he spoke on us individually and as a couple. He was able to see how we complimented each other and put it into words. Really an amazing ceremony in no small part due to him.
Couldn't have been happier. Thanks so much Josiah!
A moment to remember for the rest of our lives.
Rewatch our ceremony, I am crying as I type this because it was the most beautiful moment of our life. I wouldn’t recommend any other officiant.. ever. Thank you again Josiah Elias!!
