Ken is THE pastor for your wedding day!

My husband and I got married on July 4th. Our original intentions were to get married sometime in September but we still didn't have any vendors yet. With the pandemic and the uncertainty of when things would be back to normal we decided to do a small ceremony in our backyard. After searching on Wedding Wire for a professional, affordable, officiant Ken popped up! After my initial contact Ken called right away. He set up a virtual meeting with my fiance and I to get to know us which made us feel so special! He took extra time to answer any questions I had and was always a text or call away. He was patient and best of all funny! Ken has a great sense of humor and made us feel so comfortable. We were able to tailor our small backyard ceremony and vows to our liking without any concern from Ken...he really just wants his clients to be happy! On the day of the ceremony he showed up on time, and dressed very nicely to perform our official words of marriage! He was also sure to speak loudly and clearly since we didn't have a mic and our families were at a safe distance. Ken is so sweet and we highly recommend his amazing officiant talents for your special day!

Provided Great Service

Pastor Ken also known as PK was wonderful to work with and he provided GREAT service. We contracted with Pastor Ken in January 2019 for an August 2019 Wedding. Pastor Ken is a GREAT communicator and promptly replied to ALL of our calls and text messages quickly. He was always on time when we met for the first time, at our wedding rehearsal and on our wedding day. He is a fun person to spend time with which really helps to ease your wedding day stress. He is very professional and smooth. Your guests will be blown away by how well he performs your wedding ceremony. He utilizes several payment options and we chose PayPal. Hire Pastor Ken & you will not be disappointed!

Working With Pastor Ken Is Like Working With A Good Friend

Pastor Ken performed our wedding in 2017. I contacted him because we were having some difficulty finding an available officiant and I knew his work from the annual Fox 45 Wedding in a Week promotion. We are very pleased with our choice. He is accommodating, caring, patient and personable. Further, he made sure we knew that he was available to support the marriage in the future.

Pastor Ken did a great job on our wedding! I actually selected another officiant at the beginning, but that officiant was very slow and not responsible. Then I find Pastor Ken on this website! Pastor Ken was very professional and provided a lot of good suggestions. He also tried his best to attend our rehearsal with a short notice. Strongly recommend!

So great to work with! We had to postpone a year due to family health issues and move venues since ours cancelled on us, and they were there for us every step. They moved the date and location no problem, and even take credit cards which is awesome! The pamphlet includes durations of ceremonies, outfits he will wear for your event and all those candle, sand options out there (we didn't do that but still cool) you seriously get pick your stuff and they accommodate! So easy and so awesome! He also got to the venue early so he came upstairs and watched football with us till it was time to start. He is so cool, definitely recommend!!

Coming from out of state somehow my fiancé and I planned everything months in advance, except an officiant! We were panicking last minute (a week before the wedding) and contacted pastor Ken praying the he would be available for our wedding date, and he was! We spoke over the phone only one time prior to our wedding day! I put 100% faith in him to plan his part of the ceremony and even without any time to rehearse everything went flawlessly and was so beautiful! Pastor Ken was truly a blessing!

Pastor Ken and his wife Jo-Anne are so great. They are professional, prompt at answering questions, and they gave me awesome feedback and templates to work off of, since I didn't even know where to start in terms of choosing what I wanted for my ceremony. They are so incredibly down to earth and friendly, and made the wedding ceremony so special. Highly recommended ??

Pastor Ken is very professional. I had recently moved to Maryland and did not know any officiants. So I started searching for an officiant, and he came up at the top of my search list on Wedding Wire. I also asked at least 3 friends and they also recommended him. My fiance (now husband) also asked around and came back with Pastor Ken. I could go on about how great he is. His wife is amazing and they have a great system going. She does most of the behind the scenes work in terms of creating the program for the ceremony, and does this very quickly. We also decided to have our pre-marital coaching sessions with him and, I tell you, he is superb. Our wedding day was amazing. The guests could not stop telling us how much they loved our Pastor. He performed a beautiful ceremony and while we were able to say how we wanted our ceremony to be done, he also gave us suggestions, which we thought was great. My sister, who lives in Florida and was also my MOH will be getting married soon, and is contemplating doing so in Maryland just so she could have Pastor Ken officiate her marriage ceremony(I would so love that too). If you are looking for knowledge, professionalism, flexibility, and most importantly quality of service, then Pastor Ken is man. If nothing else happens after the wedding ceremony, you would still be a happily married couple at the end of the day.

What can we say...well Pastor Ken is amazingly funny and down to earth. He counseled us with truth and was totally open and honest with us. He made our ceremony unique and exactly what we wanted to share with our guests. His presence made this part of the wedding stress free and we can't thank him and his wife enough. Best Officiant in DMV.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
