Just the kindness we needed

Rev. Kyle officiated our wedding back in 2015. Up until meeting with Rev. Kyle, we had a horrible experience navigating our respective churches (I am a non-practicing Catholic and my husband is a non-practicing Lutheran), we lived together at the time and were more or less shamed by our respective parishes. We were heartbroken and felt really defeated in our search for an officiant that could marry us in the eyes of God, despite not being particularly religious. Rev. Kyle was the opposite of all of that, welcomed us with open arms and conducted a truly beautiful, personalized ceremony. We did participate in the pre-wedding counseling, which I expected to be really awkward, and Rev. Kyle made it fun and really useful. 7 years and two beautiful babies later, I still remember the open communication my husband and I had during our sessions and to this day keep my random socks in the hamper and not in the living room :)

I would recommend Rev. Kyle a million times over and am very very happy with our choice to ask Rev. Kyle to marry us.

Ceremony was our favorite part of our wedding thanks to Kyle!

Kyle was without a doubt our best decision in wedding planning. We dragged our feet finding an officiant because it seemed like such a huge task and we didn’t really know what we wanted our ceremony to look like, we just knew it was very important to us. We both struggle warming up to people, but after our first meeting with Kyle, we knew we could openly share what our hopes were for or ceremony. He worked with us to incorporate our values, sense of humor, and families into a beautiful and unique ceremony that we will remember forever. Looking back, the ceremony was by far our favorite part of the day and that is only because of the meaningful way Kyle officiated. So many of our guests have expressed how beautiful, funny, cute and perfectly “us” our ceremony was. We highly recommend Kyle so you can experience this as well and enjoy planning your ceremony!
