    Mark Willis - Officiant

    My husband and I got married on May 20, 2023 and used Mark Willis as an officiant. We had an amazing experience and would highly recommend using him! He helped us develop a script and unity ceremony that was unique to us. He helped run our rehearsal and made our ceremony smooth!

    Mark Willis

    Mark did a perfect job; we felt completely comfortable with him from the initial meeting, and he did a great job at the wedding! One thing I really appreciated was how easy he made the process in determining the ceremony. He provided great examples, and was open with all changes we wanted.

    I can’t say enough nice things to say about Mark!

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!

jw ph{o}to jw ph{o}to Wedding Photographers

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.
