Reverend Louis was a top notch officiant for our May 2025 Virginia wedding and his package he provides with the premarital counseling was a treasured part of our wedding planning. He is very well organized, providing guidance and great expertise, and was flexible to accommodate our late ceremony start and redoing some posed pictures since our photographer missed the ceremony and arrived later. He only books one event for the whole day which helps in these situations and brings such a cheerful, joyous presence. Our families loved the ceremony and we loved our whole time with Louis! - The Bride

Rev Louis was exactly what we were looking for in a wedding officiant. He was interested in getting to know us in order to personalize and tailor a ceremony that was right for us. He was sensitive to our personal story and created a welcoming, inclusive and spiritual ceremony for our guests and most importantly for us. Also, he and his wife can really cut a rug on the dance floor!

In a world where not everyone has a church, but still wants to be married by someone spiritual that knows you, Rev Louis Schwebius brings it all together. Everyone went on and on about what a great ceremony we had. He spent the time to really know us and delivered a beautiful, fun ceremony. Worth every penny!

Rev. Louis was such an important person for our wedding. Not only for helping us make sure things were on track, but also supporting us while navigating situations with our family. During those stressful times of planning. Rev. Louis was a sturdy presence for us to hold onto. The premarital counseling sessions were very helpful and Rev. Louis was able to bring up what can be sensitive topics in a light way that makes them easier to talk about. The ceremony itself was excellent and Rev. Louis guided us through that with the seasoned hand of a professional. What he helped prepare for us came from his heart as much as ours. That day will be something we treasure for the rest of our lives. I cannot recommend Rev. Louis enough. - The Groom

Rev. Louis was the perfect officiant for our wedding. He really took the time to build a relationship with us. He is kind, insightful and funny. My wife and I were so pleased with the ceremony and all our guests complimented the wonderful job he did.

Thank you so much for making our day even more special!

When we were planning our wedding, I didn't think that the officiant would be the highlight for so many of our guests. But let me tell you, he was all people could bring up.

Day of, Reverend Louis did an amazing job. He's incredibly charismatic and loves being around weddings. Dude radiated joy and brought a great energy to the day. He also went out of the way to attend our rehearsal dinner (even though it was a 90 minute drive for him) and mingled with our families.

Best of all though, he takes the time to get to know you before the wedding. We met up several times beforehand which was fantastic because A) we got to build a custom ceremony and B) he actually got to know us. I've been to wedding where it's obvious the officiant met the couple the day of and Reverend Louis is the complete opposite. So much so we had people who assumed we had known him for years.

Thanks again Reverend Lou, we were truly blessed to have you officiate our wedding!

We had Rev. Louis officiate our wedding in Sept and loved working with him!

We were fortunate enough to have Reverend Louis Schwebius as officiant of our wedding ceremony and cannot say enough good things. If you don't sense the warmth from the simple photos of his smile, you will certainly notice upon meeting. He is as genuine and loving a person as one can meet.
As soon as you make the wise decision to go with Rev. Louis, you will feel completely comforted by his love, knowledge, and experience in both first, and in our case, second, marriages. No matter how much thought you may have put in already, he will undoubtedly have some fine suggestions for your momentous occasion.
Rev. Louis takes the time and effort required to gain insight into your relationship to craft a ceremony that will be unique and truly special to you and your family. We would give 20 stars if we could.

We could not recommend Rev. Louis more!! I’ll start from the beginning. We were fairly slow to begin researching and securing an officiant because we didn’t know where to start! We both come from different backgrounds and had different ideas on how we wanted the wedding officiated, so we just weren’t sure we could find someone who could accommodate both of our desires. But, that’s exactly what we found with Rev. Louis. After researching multiple officiants, Rev. Louis was our number #1 based on all the reviews and testimonials. We were so excited when we reached out that even with our shortened lead time, he graciously took us on and spent even more time with us than we even thought would be possible within the timeframe we had. From the first meeting, we felt an instant connection with Rev. Louis and really felt we could trust him and that he had our best interest at heart. Every session with him was invaluable, and you could tell he really cared about us as he got to know us, which was evident through his creative recommendations that helped us craft a ceremony that worked for both of us! Through the multiple sessions he offered us, he also helped me and my now husband get to know each other better which I didn’t think was possible. In the end, the ceremony was exactly how we felt it should have been, and we can’t thank Rev. Louis enough! Everything went so smoothly, and our guests told us how enjoyable the ceremony was because of Rev. Louis’ demeanor, energy and humor!! What we thought would be one of the most daunting parts about the wedding planning (the ceremony) ended up being one of the easiest, most valuable and the least of our concerns thanks to the time and support of Rev. Louis!

As a bride planning my wedding, I didn't know what to look for in an officiant. I wanted someone who could capture the ceremony of the day while interjecting fun and playfulness that really defines my relationship with my now husband. Reverend Louis did that and more. He walked us through the process, making it easy for us to collectively plan the perfect ceremony for us. His pre-wedding sessions with us as a couple really brought our closer together and kept our relationship at the forefront of our wedding planning. He normalized all of the anxiety and stress that goes into wedding planning and kept reminding us what was important- our relationship. During the rehearsal and the ceremony, he did an amazing job incorporating our guests and making them truly feel part of the event. We were thrilled with our ceremony and it remains one of my best memories on a day filled with them. I'm really grateful to Reverend Louis and would wholeheartedly recommend him to be anyone's officiant.
