Sarah Sent on 11/15/2022Very professional and helpful
Joe was our officiant for our wedding and he was wonderful to work with. He was incredibly responsive, helpful and professional. We had a meeting with him before the wedding where he was able to meet us and learn our story to make the ceremony specific to us as a couple. He had tons of additional reading options to help add to the ceremony. He sent us a script of the ceremony and allowed us to make any changes to make it perfect for us. Day of, he was perfect for the ceremony. You can tell how experienced he is. He had his own speaker setup that allowed all of our guests to hear the ceremony. He helped put us at ease with all of the chaos of the day, making sure the certificate paperwork was filled out properly and getting it to the courthouse ASAP. I'm incredibly happy Joe was our officiant and highly recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant in the Southern Maryland area. -

Simply Perfect!
We were very happy with Rev. Joe's process from beginning to end. He was so very accommodating throughout the entire process and his sense of humor put us at ease.
He made a genuine effort to get to know us beforehand to help him understand what made us and our relationship unique and special.
We felt extremely comfortable talking to him over Zoom because we were not going to be able to meet him in
person until the day of the wedding. He provided us with a great deal of material, such as readings to help us personalize our wedding.
He was very open to us editing the script of the wedding ceremony so it reflected our personalities and the type of wedding ceremony we wanted to have.
Rev. Joe was wonderful the day of the wedding prior to the ceremony as he checked in on us separately to make sure we did not have any last minute questions and wanted to help us take a moment and enjoy what a truly special occasion a wedding is for a couple, their friends and family.
He conducted the ceremony in a professional and caring manner that deeply touched us both, and our families and friends.
Rev, Joe took the time to talk to us afterwards and we could feel his genuine well wishes for us and our life
that we have started together.
The ceremony was simply perfect. It was the best wedding we have ever been to!
Please have Rev. Joe perform your wedding ceremony. You will not be sorry. -

Reverend Joe Is Amazing!!!
He was a perfect fit for our ceremony, family, and friends!. He made our wedding so beautiful, easy, and so fun that we did not feel nervous at all at the thought of everyone’s eyes on us. Our friends and family all loved the ceremony and how funny he was. In addition to being funny, he was extremely professional. If you’re looking for someone who is beyond kind, professional, experienced, and knows how to light up your special day, Reverend Joe is your perfect fit too. -

I was in desperate need of an officiant because all the ones my venue recommended were busy but it was a blessing because Joe was great! He was professional and easy to talk to. He helped make my ceremony as personalized as I wanted from what he wore to what type of ceremony (civil, religious, etc.) to what verses were read. The guests all told me how great the ceremony was after. He helped with the rehearsal and made the ceremony perfect. He is also very affordable. Highly recommend. -

Rev. Joe Orlando took great care to meet with us online (as we were coming in from another state) and really wanted to get to know us as a couple to personalize the ceremony. He kept us posted every step of the way and provided us with readings and ideas to customize the ceremony to us. He went above and beyond what we hoped for and we had so many wonderful compliments on the service and his delivery. It was quite meaningful, personalized and made for an intimate wedding. Our best man forgot one of the rings, and Rev. Joe was ever the professional and helped us through with light humor, which everyone loved. We highly recommend Rev. Joe Orlando for your wedding! -

Listened to our wants and superseded our expectations
Joe was attentive and pleasant, offered great suggestions and catered to make our ceremony specific to us. He dressed very well and was great for casual conversation before and after the ceremony; no awkward moments here! -

Joe was a real joy to work with! He took the time to really get to know us - despite the fact we were states away before the wedding - and tailored his officiant speech to what made us unique as both individuals and as a couple. It never felt duplicated or forced, but personal and sincerely caring. It also helps his demeanor is so calm and respectful, I could never be nervous around him! -

Wonderful minister
Joe was willing to work with our schedule and in view of COVID he even met with us through video chat. He responded quickly to questions we had and was friendly and professional. I would recommend him a thousand times over. Thank you Joe! -

Reverend Joe was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was quick to communicate with and you felt he was genuinely excited to get to know you. He takes his position as an officiant seriously, and strives to create a ceremony that is personal and heartfelt. We spent time with him discussing our vision for our ceremony and he asked questions to better get to know us and our relationship. He created a ceremony that captured who we are and was incredibly moving. He always made you feel like a priority. Couldn't have been happier with our choice! -
