Perfect officiant for us!

Rev. Wadas did a wonderful job making our ceremony special! He was communicative and friendly. We live in another state and he was easy to work with from afar. Our ceremony was personal and sentimental, he incorporated our religious beliefs and chosen scripture beautifully, and we got many compliments from our guests! He did a great job personalizing it to us. Would 100% recommend Rev. Wadas!

Amazing experience!

I cannot recommend Rev. Joe enough! We booked him for our March wedding in Hilton Head and the whole process was great. Rev. Joe responded quickly to all of our emails and wrote a beautiful script for our ceremony. He made sure our rehearsal ran smoothly and made sure we were confident for our wedding day. Highly recommend!

Seamlessly intertwined multiple religions and languages!

We had the pleasure of working with Reverend Joe for our wedding on 04/19/2024. My husband and I are two different religions – Catholic and Muslim, and we wanted an officiant who could speak to both religions and find the intersection between them. Additionally, my husband’s family came from Morocco, and many did not speak English, so we decided to have his sister work with Reverend Joe to translate the sermon for them so that they could feel included in our special day. The result was phenomenal! All evening, I had guests telling me how beautiful the ceremony was and how special it was to include both families, both religions, and both languages. When answering Reverend Joe’s questionnaire, I had recently lost my dog of over 16 years and my grief was evident in my responses to the questions, particularly what I loved about my husband. Reverend Joe seamlessly intertwined my dog’s legacy in his sermon and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house! I appreciate his flexibility, knowledge, and professionalism. I would recommend Reverend Joe again and again! We were so honored by his presence, and he made our ceremony perfect!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
