Marriage Chaplin

Hello everyone my daughter recommended Pastor Esterman and his lovely wife to us ,me and my husband have been married for seven years now. The service was nice the birds sang with the music here are eight ways to a good marriage.1. Always pray with each other in the morning.2. Communication is of the upmost important. 3. When you can't agree on something walk away and come back later and try again.4. A marriage should be 50/50 not 6040 nor 90/10 when a relationship is equal everything works out fine.5. Tell them you love them everyday and night.6. Kiss the cook for a great job preparing your meals.7. Share the chores around the house.8. Make sure that you are both having a good day check on them while the both of you are out and about. Be faithful and true to one another.

Pastor Eastman made a special ceremony

Pastor Eastman was a pleasure to meet and is a very genuine and sincere person to conduct a marriage ceremony. He made everything as personable as he could and made sure my husband and I felt very involved the whole time. Him and his wife are very prompt with communication and their flexibility was unmatched. They fit exactly what we needed! Definitely recommend Pastor Eastman!

Wonderful to Work With!

I contacted MarriageChaplain as I was in need of an officiant for my wedding since neither my husband nor I had any connections elsewhere. Immediately I was amazed at the kindness & willingness to help from Pastor Eastman when I first spoke with him. He took the time to get to know my husband and myself in order to see which officiant would be the best fit. We ended up choosing Pastor Eastman himself and he was amazing for our wedding! We wanted a lively, joyful, but meaningful ceremony and he delivered. Phyllis, his wife, was also always so helpful whenever we were in correspondence. I highly recommend them for anyone's officiating needs for their own wedding!

Great experience

We wanted a wedding ceremony during The Covid pandemic but the courthouse was no longer providing this service and we didn’t know what to do. We found MarriageChaplain online and we’re so grateful! We spent a lot of time reading each officiant’s bio and the many suggest service styles and vow options in their website. It was a lot of good information and made us feel like we could find the style that was right for us. The pastor came to our home and provided a delightful service for our immediate family. Our family all enjoyed his joyful and fun style.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
