Jelena Sent on 09/20/2019I would absolutely recommend reverend Goyda to anyone. He is a very caring individual and made sure we were comfortable on our big day!
Reverend Goyda is such a fun and friendly guy. He made our ceremony fun for everyone and got all of the guests involved. He made sure the whole day went smoothly and was very caring towards us on a day that we already felt nervous and anxious. -

Larry made the both of us feel very comfortable and not nervous at all. He made our ceremony very personal to us. He involved both of our families since this was second marriage for both of us. He talked about bringing all these families together with our marriage. He brought both spiritual and Christian aspects together. Everyone was very impressed with our ceremony. Highly recommend. -

User2588960 Sent on 04/26/2016my husband and i worked with larry for our own wedding in 2006 and we enjoyed our experience so much, we recommended him for my husband's brother's wedding in 2015. at both very different venues, he fulfilled the kind of services we wanted to help make our wedding ceremony's so special. we were lucky that he was referred to us back in 2006 when we were looking for the perfect non-denominational officiant. -
User2158605 Sent on 06/01/2015Larry was great for our wedding at Pittsburgh Center for the Arts. He was on time, professional, and patient with us during the rehearsal and ceremony. We ran late on our ceremony by switching the location at the very last minute, due to the weather cooperating, to an outdoor setting, Larry's experience and acumen lead the way allowing us to complete a meaningful ceremony that will be remembered forever. All of our guests commented on how well he spoke and how smooth the ceremony went. We are very happy that Larry was our officiant for our special day. -

Erin Sent on 01/18/2015A lot of people tend to focus on the reception when planning a wedding but for me, the ceremony was the entire point of the wedding so it was extremely important to me that the ceremony be true to our relationship and be meaningful! Rev Larry is a very warm and friendly man, making him instantly likeable by guests. Our ceremony was able to be tailored to us, for example we are not very religious people so he was able to leave the religious parts out. At a lot of weddings that I've attended the rev/priest/minister tends to talk for what feels like hours about things that are not pertainent to the couple or ceremony... This is not the case with Rev Larry! Rev Larry went over everything with us prior to the ceremony (we did not have a rehearsal dinner), everything that was said was tailored to our wants/needs and it was all very meaningful! After the ceremony I got several compliments including "what a loving ceremony" and "what a beautiful reading" ! If you want a thoughtful/meaninful ceremony we highly recommend Rev. Larry! -
User1840748 Sent on 10/01/2014I should start by stating that we did not have a traditional wedding. Even though my wife and I had talked about what we wanted on our wedding day, the actual planning only took about three weeks from the time we booked the location to the actual wedding. By design we wanted a “surprise” wedding. Meaningful Marriages and Larry played such an important role in pulling this off that the day would have only been a fancy backyard picnic without him. Larry helped guide us through and ensure that all the right processes and paper work were done (we live in NY, and got married in PA), so that the wedding day could be memorable for all the right reasons. There were so many little things that because of his experience and knowledge, made planning and coordinating that much easier. Larry’s attitude and demeanor helped alleviate the stresses that can arise on a wedding day. He socialized with the other guests, as to not let them know his role in what was about to happen. The actual ceremony was wonderful. His knowledge and experience ensured that great picture moments during the service were plentiful. Kristina and I were extremely pleased with the ceremony. We had several guests also comment on how lovely they thought the wedding ceremony was. From the great insight and guidance leading up to the ceremony to all the requests that we had; Larry was instrumental in creating the wedding day memories that we will cherish for our lifetime. We would highly recommended Rev. Larry and Meaningful Marriages -
User1708454 Sent on 07/12/2014Rev. Larry Goyda is incredible. He was everything I could have requested; friendly, calming, caring, AND professional. He is a veteran and can literally handle any situation... One of my bridesmaids forgot her reading and had to leave the podium and grab it... out of her purse... in the last pew in the church...yes, that actually happened! Larry picked up without a beat and told an endearing wedding joke that saved the day! It was such a memorable and sweet moment! A bunch of guests came up to me throughout the evening to mention how much they liked the ceremony and how great of a job Larry did. He is an amazing officiant. I would recommend him to anyone.
