Reverand Benji was so helpful! We had a very simple beach ceremony with immediate family, but he treated it as if it were a big one! He came to our resort (Sea Watch in North Myrtle Beach) -- and due to the weather forecast earlier in the week, he brought the professional photographer, instead of the amateur. the weather was perfect, the pictures were great and we wouldn't have changed a thing! He even had a 'plan B' in case it rained. Bless his heart!

Robert and I decided we wanted a beach wedding ceremony and would be traveling 4 hours, along with our family and close friends for our special day. Rev. Simmons was recommended to us and from day 1 he was nothing but helpful and friendly. He gave us lots of options and was an absolute delight to work with. I would highly recommend Rev. Simmons to anyone who wanted the perfect minister for their special day, someone who will work hard to make sure things are exactly the way you want them!

He was very quick in responding to our emails and will tailor the service to however you want it. We wanted something religious but casual. He is very well-spoken and very kind.

Short Notice - Great Experience

We had less than a week to schedule our ceremony. Benjy was so helpful and knowledgeable. Our quiet, personal ceremony was exactly what we wanted! I couldn't be happier!

Excellent!

Rev. Benjy Simmons is wonderful! He performed our ceremony at the MB Train Depot and it was incredible. Rev. Simmons kept in touch with us from the time we scheduled him, to just check in and see if we needed anything. He gave us recommendations for other vendors we needed which was super helpful. He sent us several ceremony options and told us to choose whichever and change it however we wanted to. It was great being able to customize our ceremony. On the day of he was there and ready to go. He got our licenses signed and explained what he would do/what we needed to do to get copies and such. The ceremony was beautiful. It was so natural and wonderful. Everyone commented on how lovely the ceremony was and we are very thankful that Rev. Benjy made it so. I highly recommend!!

Rev. Benjy Simmons married us on April 6, 2012. We were planning a beach ceremony for just the two of us. Due to the chilly 48 degrees, windy and rainy morning, we changed venues to the chapel. Although it was a last minute change, the chapel was very pretty. Rev. Simmons, along with his wife, Renee (who took the pics), were a delight! The atmosphere was comfortable and the ceremony was very nice! We were both relaxed like we have known Rev. Simmons for many years. We chose the simple photography that Renee does -- and the pictures turned out great! I would highly recommend Simple Wedding to anyone in the future. Thanks to Rev. Benjy Simmons for making our wedding day special and 'stress-free'. Thank you and God Bless everything you do!

Rev. Benjy was absolutely wonderful to have make this special day more than we could have dreamed. He was very easy to talk to while planning the ceremony, and helped keep us at ease during. We never had to worry about other people around the beach at the time, and we could focus on only our wedding. Thanks Rev. Benjy for everything!
