Highly Recommend Reverend Ed
Reverend Ed was absolutely amazing! He helped us create the most beautiful ceremony that was individual to us. He assisted us throughout the entire process and promptly responded to all questions that we had. On the day of the wedding he eased all of our nerves and made sure that we knew everything that was going to happen. He did such a great job that our guests are still raving about how beautiful of a ceremony it was! We would highly recommend him to anyone getting married!

I had the pleasure of working with Reverend Ed this past weekend. He was awesome. Down to earth, very easy to communicate with and has a booming voice that your guests will have no trouble hearing without the aid of a microphone! Can't wait to work with reverend Ed again in the future!
Ed was fantastic as a minister for a recent wedding we did for Amanda & Craig at the Inn at Millrace Pond. It was an extremely hot day outside, which the ceremony was outdoors. Despite the conditions, Ed arrived on time, came prepared fully dressed in his formal attire, and went over the details with me (Chris the DJ) without complaints or difficulty. I quickly showed him how to work the microphone. What stood out the most about Ed is that he went above and beyond to take the microphone and reposition it during the bride & groom's vows. We were on point the entire ceremony and commend all his efforts in working smoothly with us!
