Great officiant

Brian was very responsive, gave great information on locations and vendors, answered questions timely and made everything easy. He wrote a lovely speech for our ceremony and made it seem personal.

Best officiant I've ever had!

Brian was very helpful throughout the process. We both really appreciate that he clearly took the time to read our personal stories and used those to inspire his own words during the ceremony. He speaks very clearly and projects. Very professional. His sense of excellent humor made the audience laugh, as well as us (the bride and groom).
He may be the only officiant we've ever had, but he was definitely worth it. Thanks Brian!!

Brian was a blast.

We are so happy we chose Brian as our wedding officiant! He made the process super easy from start to finish. He was so quick with communication and helpful with any of my questions or requests. Even with no rehearsal prior to the wedding, the ceremony went smooth and was exactly what we wanted -- All thanks to Brian!!
