Pastor Matthew Samler

Pastor Matt was truly a blessing to have as our officiant. From our very first conversation, he made us feel comfortable and cared for. He took the time to genuinely get to know my wife and me through several phone calls, and it was obvious on our wedding day that he had put real thought and effort into our ceremony.

He shared personal stories about us that made the ceremony feel unique, heartfelt, and even brought plenty of laughs. At the same time, he delivered a meaningful message rooted in the Bible that perfectly reflected the importance of marriage and our faith. It struck the perfect balance between joyful, personal, and inspiring.

We had so many guests tell us afterward how much they loved the ceremony and how wonderful Pastor Matt was. We are incredibly grateful for the role he played in one of the most important days of our lives, and we wholeheartedly recommend him to any couple looking for an officiant who is genuine, compassionate, and truly invested in making your wedding ceremony unforgettable.

Matthew exceeded every expectation as our wedding officiant. From the very beginning, he was prompt, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our ceremony extra memorable. He took the time to get to know us in order to tailor every detail to our needs. He sent us several scriptures options to choose from, making sure the words reflected our hearts and our faith. On top of all that, he added a beautiful special moment in Spanish for my dad that made our ceremony more special. Pricing wise he is very reasonable, especially considering his level of care, personalization, and professionalism. We are deeply grateful for Matthew, we couldn’t have asked for a better officiant. THANK YOU, Matthew for providing such an incredible service and for helping make our special day truly unforgettable. If you’re looking for an officiant who will go above and beyond to make your day extra special, look no further!

Pastor Matt was amazing. He took the time to get some details about us and how we met and added them into the ceremony. Very friendly and easy to work with. Highly recommend using him for your wedding!

Mr. Matthew was awesome!! He made our day go so smoothly, and we couldn’t have been more grateful for him!! Not only did he make our special day perfect, but he put our worries at ease the whole time beforehand! You can really tell he is a man who is not only close to God, but cares about you, your family, and your day. I am so incredibly thankful and blessed he came into our lives!! Thank you so so much, Pastor Matthew!!! ☺️☺️

We had the absolute honor of being married by Pastor Matt in April of 2025, and now that we’ve just celebrated our one year wedding anniversary, we can honestly say his words have stayed with us every single day.
From our very first meeting over the phone, since we were planning from out of state, Pastor Matt made us feel completely at ease and so confident in our decision. It felt like we had known him forever.
On our wedding day, he went above and beyond. At the altar, he helped calm my husband’s nerves and brought such a peaceful, steady presence to the moment. His message was so heartfelt and meaningful.
One of the things that has stuck with us most is when he said, “establish a home that puts God first. The closer you get to God, the closer you will get to each other.” We have carried that with us into our marriage and genuinely strive to live by it every day.
He ended his beautiful message by reminding us that if we wake up each morning and ask ourselves, “how can I serve my husband or wife today,” we will have a beautiful marriage. That simple but powerful advice has shaped the way we start each day, and we have fully embraced it.
We truly could not recommend Pastor Matt more. We are so grateful for him and for the words he spoke over our marriage. We would choose him over and over again.

We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant for our elopement. From the very beginning, he went above and beyond, taking time to call us beforehand and truly get to know our story, how we met, and what makes our relationship special. That personal touch meant so much to us.

On the day of the ceremony, he brought everything together beautifully. He incorporated all the meaningful details we shared into a heartfelt and memorable ceremony that felt completely “us”. Beyond that, he connected so naturally with our families, making everyone feel comfortable and included.

His personality is warm, genuine, and engaging, which made the entire experience even more special. We are incredibly grateful for the role he played in our day and would highly recommend him to any couple looking for a thoughtful and personable officiant.

Pastor Matt officiated our micro-wedding on March 28, 2026, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to lead our ceremony. From the very beginning, he was incredibly quick to respond and made the whole process feel easy and comfortable.

He scheduled a phone call with my husband and me to get to know us a bit, and we immediately picked up great vibes from him. He created such a welcoming environment that it was easy to open up and share our story. It felt like he genuinely cared about making our ceremony personal and meaningful.

On the day of the wedding, Pastor Matt arrived early and briefly went over the space and our plans with us, which helped everything feel calm and organized. He also helped us choose a beautiful verse to incorporate into the ceremony. When we originally spoke on the phone, we hadn’t decided on doing a unity ceremony yet. The day of the wedding we mentioned it to him, and he was able to seamlessly incorporate it into the ceremony as if it had been planned all along.

We cannot recommend Pastor Matt enough. He helped make such an important day even more meaningful for us, and we are so grateful he was part of it. If you're on the fence about an officiant, choose Pastor Matt!

Pastor Matthew was fantastic. He was so easy to get to know and really took time to get to know us as well. He performed our marriage ceremony and it was so great. I even had guests after the wedding tell me how great of a job they thought he did and how the ceremony just flowed so nicely. He very professional and I highly recommend him!!

We are so grateful to Pastor Matthew Samler for officiating our wedding. From our first meeting to the ceremony itself, he was kind, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in us as a couple. The ceremony was personal, meaningful, and beautifully delivered. Our guests made several comments on how heartfelt it was. We couldn’t have asked for a better pastor to marry us and we will always be thankful for his guidance and care.

Matthew did a phenomenal job at our wedding being our officiant. Everyone told us that he made our ceremony just that much more meaningful and special. He was super communicative before the wedding and offered a lot of great advice and after the wedding he has let us know that we can reach out to him whenever we need help or advice with anything we may face. If you are considering using Matthew for your own wedding, he is the right choice.
