Fantastic!

Rev. Dr. James R. Berger was the perfect officiant! He made our ceremony absolutely beautiful. He didn't rush through anything, going at a perfect pace. During the prep calls he will make you feel comfortable and help you with whatever you need. He was on time with no mistakes. I highly recommend.

Officiant - Highly Recommend!

Dr. Jim was truly a pleasure to work with. We would recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant for their wedding. He was a professional and really took the time to incorporate our wishes into the wedding. He always delivered on the timelines discussed and we were so appreciative of his direction in obtaining a marriage license in FL as we were traveling from out of state. Our ceremony was exactly what we hoped for and we can't thank him enough for contributing to our special day.

What a Rockstar Officiant!

WOW!!! Dr. Berger was such an amazing officiant. Heartfelt, efficient, humorous and serious, personal, etc. Everything you could possibly want, he was! Our guests commented on how professional and kind he was, and we couldn't have asked for a more beautiful ceremony sermon. THANK YOU Dr. Berger!!

Jedi Master Wedding Officiant!!!

Dr. Jim Berger is absolutely in a league of his own. He combines insightfulness, intelligence and charm with comedic timing. He knows exactly how to ease the intense emotions of a ceremony without diminishing the seriousness of two people vowing eternal love. I was the father of the bride at the wedding that he officiated 2/26/22, but I've also been in the event production business for most of my adult life. Our companies have been involved in over 1000 weddings, and I can easily say that I've never witnessed a smoother delivery or more meaningful words given at a ceremony. His confidence, the cadence of his speech and his calming energy made the entire experience absolute perfection. I am so thankful for having been referred to him, and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone.

He was so kind and patient through the entire process and so helpful in designing a ceremony around what was important to us as a couple. He also went above and beyond to ensure our special day was truly special! We are so so thankful to have had him marry us!

Rev. Berger is an absolute delight to work with, and extremely professional- yet fun. It is important to have an officiant as passionate about your ceremony as Rev. Berger, as it is his attention to detail and fantastic personality that make a difference. Reverend Berger is definitely recommended by me. PAUL L.
