Great job officiating our wedding

Dr. Clarke did an amazing job officiating our wedding. Since we were living and had to coordinate everything from out of state and did not do a rehearsal, we did not actually end up meeting Dr. Clarke in person until the day of the wedding but he was very professional, helpful, and responsive the entire time. I highly recommend.
