10/10 Officiant—Highly Recommend

We found Tom through The Knot, and his excellent reviews convinced us to set up a meeting. From the very first call, Tom was professional, warm, and genuinely funny. We immediately felt comfortable with him.

Throughout the planning process, Tom was patient, organized, and incredibly diligent. With everything going on, it was hard for us to stay on top of every detail, and Tom consistently followed up to keep us on track—never pushy, always supportive. He made the entire process feel easy.

Now for the most important part: the ceremony. Tom arrived exactly when he said he would, and even though we weren’t able to have a rehearsal due to venue constraints and scheduling challenges with family, he handled everything flawlessly. His delivery was heartfelt, thoughtful, and had the perfect touch of humor. We requested a completely non-religious ceremony, and he honored that fully—every word felt intentional and true to who we are.

What truly set Tom apart, though, was the way he made us feel in the moment. When my bride walked in, I found myself overwhelmed and stuck in my own head. Tom made a few quiet, perfectly timed comments that brought me back into the present so I could truly experience that moment. That meant more to me than he’ll ever know.

Tom is not only an excellent officiant but a genuinely kind and grounding presence. We couldn’t recommend him more highly. If you’re considering him—just book him. You’ll be grateful you did.

Thank you for being such a meaningful part of our day.

With gratitude,
Mr. & Mrs. Pennington

Exceeded our expectations!

Rev. Tom took the time to get to know our story and included it into the ceremony. He used no script and spoke from the heart. Our guests, event staff and coordinator all took away a positive and thought provoking message. A mix of faith and fun made for a ceremony that exceeded our expectations. We felt his fee was reasonable. Garry & I HIGHLY recommend Rev. Tom and give him 10 stars!

Great Officiant!

We were very happy to have Rev. Tom officiate our wedding! Unlike other officiants we met during our search, Rev. Tom came across as very genuine and personable. We and our guests loved his reflections on what makes a good marriage successful and everlasting. He injected the right level of humor into the ceremony while retaining the more traditional tone that we sought for our wedding. We highly recommend Rev. Tom!

Truly Amazing Officiant!!

Rev Tom honestly did a phenomenal job. Our ceremony was truly our favorite part of the entire wedding day and that was largely due to how amazing Tom was. He spoke SO well, and had the entire ceremony memorized - everyone was raving about him afterwards. He incorporated all of our requests and he was both meaningful and funny throughout the ceremony. He even stepped out of the way for our personal vows as well as our kiss - we got some amazing photos with just the two of us because of that.

We are so happy and so grateful to Rev Tom for making our ceremony truly magical. We wish we could relive it! Our biggest THANK YOU REV TOM!!

An incredible ceremony.

From the initial consultation to the ceremony itself, we had a 10/10 experience with reverend Tom. Tom listened to our hopes for the ceremony and executed a perfect ceremony including all of our must haves. Our guests complimented the service all evening and expressed how much they enjoyed it. You can’t go wrong with Tom.
Fun fact, he has done almost 1,000 weddings to date!

Awesome Service

We had a great experience with Tom! He was very light hearted and made some jokes during our ceremony. He made a point to adress everything we talked about and I couldn't be happier with how our special day turned out.
