Amazing job! Helpful and informative!

Gerard was so nice and just very fitting to officiate us! When we first met him we knew we picked the right person for the job! My family got to meet him during the wedding and they all loved him! He worked with us on everything we wanted to be apart of our ceremony and made it super easy for us! Thank you so much!

Gerard was awesome!

Gerard was AWESOME! My wife and I are from PA so we did not have a church here in FL. We were looking for someone laid back and flexible...someone that could sprinkle in some religious aspects (for the parents/in-laws) while keeping the ceremony short and sweet (30 min or less). Gerard checked all of our boxes and was fantastic for what we wanted. Great quality, communication and experience! Thank you, Gerard!

Gerard had a natural gift for making everyone feel comfortable.

Gerard was so responsive during our year of engagement. We live in NY so we had zoomed but hadn’t met in person until the rehearsal. Gerard has the kind of personality that makes you feel like you’ve always known him. Gerard had a natural gift for making everyone feel comfortable. Our family and friends loved him. They actually thought that my husband and I knew him because we had such great chemistry. Gerard is funny, sweet, caring and genuinely good at what he does. When it came down to the last month of the wedding I sent him some ideas that I had for the ceremony and he sent me a script that I was able to add and make changes to. Very easy!

Thank you Gerard !!!

Gerard married my husband and I on 9/16/2022! He was an absolute pleasure to work with. We originally planned on getting married at the courthouse but last minute decided to hire an officiant so that my family could be there. Gerard responded super quick and was so helpful with all the last minute planning. Couldn’t be happier with how the day turned out and so glad we hired Gerard !

AMAZING experience!

Gerard was such a pleasure to work with. He took the time to get to know my husband and I and make the ceremony everything we dreamed of and catered to our specific needs. He was very responsive to us and we would recommend to anyone! We can’t say enough good things about him! He also was able to recommend other venders for us, and we were SO appreciative for the recommendation he gave us!
