Best Wedding Officiant in Reno

We are beyond thrilled with the experience we had with Reverend Ron at our wedding. From the moment we first spoke to him, we knew we were in great hands! He was warm, kind and professional. Ron was always there to help answer my many questions I threw his way - which was so appreciated and made me de-stress. On the day of our wedding, Reverend Ron exceeded all of our expectations. He gave a beautiful and heartfelt ceremony that many of our friends and family raved about. Connor (groom) had a couple little surprises hidden up his sleeve for the ceremony and he worked with Ron on the day of the wedding to have them implemented - from the huddle in the middle of the ceremony to the Roses at the end - Ron guided Connor and helped him plan his surprises. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better officiant. He truly went above and beyond to make our special day perfect! We highly recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional officiant.
Thank you Reverend Ron!

Excellent Officiant

Reverend Sayed was very responsive both with emails and phone calls. He arrived on time for both the rehearsal and the ceremony and was a delight to have as our officiant.

Great officiant for my small wedding

My now husband and I found Reverend Ron through a random Google search for wedding officiants in the Reno/Tahoe area. He had great reviews and we thought, "why not?". Reverend Ron performed a beautiful ceremony for our small wedding on Lake Tahoe. In the planning leading up to the event, he was super easy to communicate with and answered all our questions. The ceremony was beautiful. We are so glad we picked Reverend Ron to be our officiant.

Wedding Ceremony

We feel so fortunate to have had Rev. Ron officiate at our wedding. He is very friendly, reliable, fun, and genuine. He was easy to communicate with, explained things thoroughly, and was open to answer all of our questions. He always had a positive attitude about the weather, even though it wasn't looking too good at times. We loved how he included the local land in the ceremonial message. We highly recommend him to officiate at your wedding, you will not regret it!

Thank you for a memorable experience!

We just wanted to say thank you again for being a part of our special ten year anniversary/vow renewal. We are very much about celebrating milestones and we are so glad you could be a part of it. You made the vows special and we loved the Indian blessing that you ended the ceremony with. We have enjoyed our time here so much and the entire area is just stunning! Thank you for all the scenic and food recommendations and for your professionalism. May God continue to bless your ministry to others in this special place.

Ron was amazing

Ron was absolutely amazing. He helped make our day special. My wife forgot my wedding ring at the hotel. I was stressed at the late start. Ron explained that it was normal. He was able to help calm me down and stay relaxed. During the ceremony he was great. He made us laugh and remembered all the vows my wife rewrote. Awesome experience.

Great Reverend at a Reasonable Price

I felt like he was very nice. He was also responsive and I enjoyed his personality. He didn't charge a travel fee, which I appreciated, and he made sure to explain things clearly. I also appreciated that he asked what my wedding colors were so that he could wear a tie that matched well--that's going the extra mile, in my opinion. He also stepped out of the way for the first kiss photo, and it's just something he does. I didn't have to ask him. I also really appreciated that he let me look over the vows and change them a little so that they were more reflective of my husband's and my relationship and that he added another touch of personalization during the ceremony--we love to fly fish, and he added that he hopes that we catch many golden trout during our lifetimes. We hope so too, Reverend. :) Overall, I think that he was well worth the very reasonable price. If we ever do a renewal ceremony, I will look him up and, hopefully, he'll still be officiating.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
