All-around amazing!
Tom was professional, personable, kind, and exceptionally helpful with guiding us through designing our ceremony. He also had several suggestions that made our day even better. The ceremony itself was very personal and incorporated touches that made it seem like he had known us for years. It was a warm, friendly ceremony that felt more like we had an old friend there with us. We chose Tom because I had been in another wedding he had performed and we were very impressed with that ceremony as well. We would absolutely recommend Tom to anyone.
