Awesome Officiant

John was easy to work with even on short notice. We had to find an officiant literally 30 days prior to our wedding after our church canceled our wedding due to COVID related issues. When we lost the church we lost the officiant so I had to scramble to find an officiant that had beliefs aligned with ours and let me tell you that is not easy! John jumped right in and did his part. Not only did he show up to rehearsal the day before and patiently waited as our bridal party was an hour late (😖 sorry John) and endured my brother calling him Morgan Freeman for 2 days. 😆 but he arrived on time to the wedding and helped keep our guests greeted and full of smiles. After the wedding he took care of ensuring accurate info for completion of and filing our marriage license. One thing some of our bridal party mentioned is he sometimes came across as pushy but he is an elder so I didn’t care. I didn’t experience that pushy behavior at all. Worth every penny in our book.

Professional

John was exactly what we needed. He whipped all of our bridesmaids and groomsmen into shape. He made sure everyone was attentive and doing their part. He knows what he is doing and I'm glad we had him he rolled with punches even when our mic went out he didnt let it stop him.

Couldn’t have chosen a better officiant

Yours Forever Wedding was everything we expect. He was on time, preplanning and wedding day. Preplanning, we went out for coffee, (my fiancé, son, John and I) we talked and got to know each other better. He went into detail and made the process simple and put our mind at ease. He usually would stay in the Sacramento area but was willing to travel about an hour away to officiate. And not only that, he didn’t charge us extra for the travel. We appreciated that a lot as we had a lot of expenses. His communication is A1. He’s honest and you can tell he loves what he do. We would definitely recommend him. He will not disappoint.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
