Mark made our ceremony experience an enjoyable one from start to finish. Neither of us had any idea of what we wanted and Mark was patient and extremely helpful. He responded to us quickly, answered every question, and addressed every concern. He was professional but made it feel personal all at the same time. He was very flexible with us and everyone at the ceremony enjoyed our vows immensely. Thank you Mark for helping us make our day extra special. We will definitely recommend him to anyone that asks!

Mark Willis was absolutely wonderful! He did a great job helping to plan out our ceremony and did a fantastic job the day of the wedding.

Excellent Officiant
Mark Willis officiated our wedding this past October 2020 and he did a wonderful job. We originally met with him at a coffee shop months before the wedding, he then sent us a number of script/reading ideas, and from there we worked together to create a personalized ceremony based on our mutual ideas. He has a great voice and presence, an easygoing personality, and responds promptly to emails. My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better experience and recommend him very highly.
Rev Tim and his wife were a pleasure to work with. It was a beautiful service, and Tim kept everything well organized even though there was a delay with the musician. I would be more than happy to work with them again!
As a wedding photographer when it came time for me to get married I knew exactly what I wanted (and didn't) in a lot of respects, but I had no clue when it came to the ceremony. My husband and I met with several officiants and hit it off with Tim right off the bat. He had so much to offer in terms of ideas and options for the flow, tone and readings at the ceremony. Tim has done A LOT of weddings, so he has seen it all, but more importantly, he really picked up on what our style was, what the vision of our day was emerging to be and made relevant suggestions. Tim also has the ability to be professional, while also making your guests laugh and choke up a bit too. I recommend Tim to my brides who are looking for an officiant.
