Highly recommended for a warm, meaningful, personalized ceremony

Words cannot describe how pleased we were with finding Pastor Chuck Blair to officiate for our black tie, city wedding. Pastor Chuck was warm, funny, and professional. He was incredibly flexible and made sure to be available for us. From our first meeting he made us feel comfortable and supported. He really got to know us —as individuals and as a couple—and incorporated our personalities into the ceremony. We received many comments on how beautiful our ceremony was— the words were meaningful and sincere and executed flawlessly. It was everything we could have hoped for! I honestly couldn’t imagine our wedding being nearly as special without Pastor Chuck.

Pastor Chuck is the BEST!

Pastor Chuck is so dedicated and passionate about investing in couples to prepare them for marriage and provide a beautiful ceremony. Our wedding ceremony was so personal and touching all because of him! He spent a lot of time getting to know us over the year and it was beautifully reflected in our ceremony. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

More than a pastor ! A friend who cares about your love

We knew we needed someone to ordain our marriage but we really got so much more with Chuck. Premarital zooms to discuss marriage, advice and preparation for the wedding day. Someone who truly listened to us and heard our love story. And the nicest man - thank you again Chuck !

Thrilled to have found Pastor Chuck!

My wife and I got married in June 2022 and we feel exceptionally lucky to have found Pastor Chuck. Leading up to the wedding, Pastor Chuck was kind enough to take time getting to know us both on a personal level and also assisted with some very valuable pre-wedding counseling. Aside from using the information he learned about us both individually and as a couple to blend seamlessly into his homily during our wedding ceremony (which he did effortlessly!) he taught us several valuable lessons and helped put into perspective what really makes a marriage successful.

Truthfully, when my wife and I were originally looking for a wedding officiant we were looking for just that - a wedding officiant. With Pastor Chuck we got so much more than we bargained for. We got a friend, a mentor, a teacher, and a part time comedian all wrapped up into one.

We feel so blessed to have found you, Pastor Chuck and we look forward to staying in touch and using some of the many lessons you taught us throughout our marriage!

All the best,
Matt & Sarah!

Ceremony of our Dreams

We want to thank Chuck for officiating the ceremony of our dreams. So many people have told us how beautiful they thought the ceremony was, some even saying it was the most beautiful they had ever witnessed. Chuck is such an intelligent, kind, eloquent, and genuine man. He created such a special moment for us, I cannot recommend him enough.

Pastor Chuck Blair from New Church

We couldn’t be happier to have chosen Pastor Chuck Blair from New Church to officiate our wedding weekend. He was incredibly accommodating to our unique cultural and religious backgrounds. So many of our guests echoed how meaningful and thoughtful Pastor Chuck was with his words and presence. We felt like he really got to know us and asked the right questions to do so which promoted such a positive energy to all the proceedings.

Chuck Blair is the best!

Working with Chuck Blair was an exceptional experience. I feel like he got to know us on a personal level and really got to understand us as a couple which reflected what he was able to say at our wedding ceremony. It was not "cliche" and he definitely was not "cookie cutter" in his speeches, dialogue, or message he wanted to give us. He is very well spoken, articulate, and confident which made us feel at ease. In a time like this, there is little that you want to worry about when you are the center of attention and Chuck helped us worry less. Great start to a wonderful ceremony.

Lindsay & Chris

When Chris & I met with Chuck, we knew immediately that he was the perfect Pastor to officiate our wedding. The connection was instantaneous! We always felt like we were speaking to a real person, which was important to us. We couldn't have been happier with everything Chuck did for us, to help ensure we were aligned. He is an amazing Pastor! We would work with Chuck again & again and we'd recommend him again & again...he is thee guy!!!

Jaimee and Michael

Rev. Chuck was absolutely amazing. He really took the time to get to know the both of us and performed an unforgettable ceremony based off of his knowledge of our love and values. Chuck made our premarital classes fun and really helped us with communication and how to prepare for our future as a married couple. We couldn’t be happier!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
