Forever Grateful for Rev. Charles!

Our experience with Rev. Charles was amazing and exceeded my expectations. He did more for us than just officiate our marriage. His pre-marital counseling was a huge help to strengthening our relationship. He was able to provide us with ways to better communicate with each other, forgive each other, grow with one another and become an overall stronger couple. He also helped us learn more about preparing for the future and provided us with recommendations on tactics and practices that will benefit our future family's lives.

My daughters wedding

Charles and his wife Shakira performed my daughters wedding on 6/10/2021. We gave them a very short notice (2 months) to perform an out of state wedding. I was nervous because of the timing but, they presented themselves so professional that it relaxed the atmosphere. They arrived on time, included everything that needed to be included for the ceremony and were very polite and professional. I really appreciated the thoughtfulness of their work. They were kind and funny. We made a great choice with the selection of them as the ministers for the ceremony.

Amazing Experience

We are so happy that we chose Reverend Charles as our wedding officiant and pre-marital counselor. He spent months getting to know us and it was truly a pleasure to work with him throughout our engagement and on our wedding day. For pre-marital counseling, we were provided with a book that taught us about various aspects of marriage. We discussed each chapter with Reverend Charles and carefully talked through how we would navigate challenges that might arise during our marriage. Because our last counseling session was a few months before our wedding, we were provided with a complimentary session closer to the wedding. By the end of our sessions, Reverend Charles had gotten to know us very well. On our wedding day, he arrived promptly and well-prepared. He wrote a thoughtful and personalized speech for the wedding ceremony that perfectly summarized our love story. We are incredibly thankful for the guidance, love, and dedication that Reverend Charles provided as our Pre-marital counselor and wedding officiant. We have recommended his services to all of our family and friends who are engaged or planning to get married!

Excellent !

We reached out to Rev Taylor via wedding wire about 3 weeks before our wedding (in the middle of a pandemic), because our local church Pastor was no longer able to officiate. He and Shakira were prompt in responding to us, friendly and extremely organized. Our wedding ceremony script was customized to our liking and everything went perfectly just as we discussed in our meetings leading up to the ceremony. We are so glad to have found Rev Taylor and that he agreed to step in on such short notice!

Happily Ever After

Reverend Charles orchestrated our premarital classes and did such a great job. He helped my husband and I learn to see things from the other’s perspective. Mrs. Shakira did such an amazing officiating our ceremony and many of my guests praised on how well she did. I highly recommend Mr. Charles and Mrs. Shakira!

Beautiful ceremony

Reverend Charles did a fantastic job! My husband and I grew during The counsoling sessions. He listened and gave his honest experienced opinion without judgement. The words he wrote for our ceremony were heartfelt and loving.
