My name is Ralph Griggs and I am a nondenominational minster who has helped countless couples in middle Tennessee with their weddings ceremonies. I work with the couple to personalize their ceremonies to make it just what they want it to be. Please contact me if you would like to discuss the possibility of my helping you have a ceremony to remember.
I also have a free online marriage prep guide that TN couples can use to save $60 on their marriage license. You can see the entire course online now at the Visit My Blog link above.

Ralph combines the 100% right mixture of solemn professionalism with a great sense of humor and this innate projection of serenity, kindness, and thoughtfulness that you look for in a wedding officiant. He was patient and walked us through the final paces of what we needed to do, and everyone at the event had only positive things to say about Ralph. My husband even shed a tear when he was talking! We strongly suggest future couples choose Ralph for your big day!

Mary Griggs (Ralph's wife)
Technically we hired Mary Griggs (Ralph's wife) to officiate our wedding ceremony and we wanted to say how wonderful she is and the prep course her and Ralph provide to couples. My husband and I thought the course was helpful and we plan to continue to work on our communication with the tools provided. Mary is so sweet and was the perfect choice for our wedding!

Definitely recommend
I hired Ralph Griggs in January of this year for my wedding in June. I actually had to change the date of my wedding due to covid and Mr. Griggs was still able to marry my husband and I. He was quick to respond to emails. He was on time for my wedding I was actually a few minutes late. If your looking for someone great to marry you I definitely recommend Ralph Griggs!

I've enjoyed the pleasure of photographing several weddings where Ralph officiated the ceremony and I can say from experience, I'm sure you'll be very pleased when you select him as minister for your wedding.
Ralph Griggs is a favorite amoung the wedding vendors in Nashville providing a full service online pre-marital counseling service that actually saves you money on the wedding license.
Ralph has officiated more weddings at CJ's than we can even count! He really is the best in town - your ceremony will be flawless in his hands! His voice is warm and strong (important in a ceremony!), he lets your own personalities shine, and is completely flexible to make your ceremony "yours". If it were my wedding, there's no question who I'd have officiating - Ralph!
