10/10 Would Hire Again - Aaron is Great!

I can't say enough about how great Aaron is. He was very communicative and accommodating for our small ceremony and was an essential part in the success of our wedding. He was very helpful in helping plan the ceremony, giving us options on what we wanted shared, and overall doing a great job executing in all that he promised. Additionally, Aaron has made our experience doing marital counseling approachable and meaningful. He allowed us to speak to things of importance to us, while also bringing value in his insights based on the SYMBIS test. I would recommend Aaron 100 times over to anyone looking for a great pastor and wedding officiant.

Wedding Officiant

Pastor Aaron did such an amazing job at bringing our dream wedding ceremony to life! He made sure to know exactly how my husband and I envisioned our ceremony, and we could not have asked for anyone better! Highly recommend for anyone looking for an officiant.
