10/5 stars for this absolute great human

From the first contact, to the day of our wedding, Tom was a pleasure to work with. His "a la carte" style of ceremony building, to his flexibility, and professionalism were exactly what we needed for our wedding. I cannot recommend him enough.

Very easy to work with, knows the biz!

Tom was very easy to work with. He was very responsive to emails and he knows a lot about the wedding industry. Someone at my wedding was a retired lawyer and he said "Wow! How did you get Tom to do your wedding?! That's so cool!" Tom also has a lot of resources about getting your marriage license and changing your name which I know a lot of people struggle with.

Tom Armstrong has been a pleasure to work with in weddings over the years. When a bridal party tells me that Tom is the officiant, I know I am in good hands. I like the fact that I can count on following his cue during the ceremony with ease. He adds that special touch to a wedding that all couples really appreciate. He will make everyone in the bridal party comfortable, and make sure everyone is on the same page to provide a smoothly run ceremony.
