First Christian Church Rowlett Reviews

Ann was wonderful. Very patient and helpful. I recommend her highly!

My husband and I are truly blessed to have found such a great person to officiate our wedding. We have not been long time residents of Texas so we did not personally know anyone that would be able to officiate our wedding. We came across Pastor Ann on Wedding Wire and I'm so glad we did. She was really flexible in working with our schedule and our requests for our wedding ceremony. We wanted a non-religious wedding, and Pastor Ann worked with us to structure a short and sweet ceremony that met all of our requirements. She's truly a lovely person and comes highly recommended!

Pastor Ann was so amazing! She has a great heart, personality, and presentation in her work. My husband and I were basically flying by the seat of our pants the week before the wedding and she helped strap us in and get us through the roller coaster. :) Our ceremony was absolutely amazing and the way she helped organize everything we wanted brought everyone to tears, even my little sister. I couldn't have asked for anyone better, that's for sure! She also went above and beyond by attending our rehearsal at the last minute and being able to control the madness that is my family. LOL! Thank you Pastor Ann :)

Pastor Ann was WONDERFUL. She is one of the nicest people I've ever met and she was so easy to work with. She was very open to all of our suggestions and did a great job at the service. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing an officiant - she will definitely be all you need and more. Thanks, Pastor Ann for a beautiful service!!

Pastor Ann was WONDERFUL! So helpful with giving ideas for our ceremony even though it was a small gathering, and EXTREMELY patient when I was running very late! We had an outdoor wedding and at the last minute, just as I'm ready to walk down the aisle... we had a no music! Something had gone wrong earlier with the speakers, I don't really remember what the problem was at this point. What I do remember was Pastor Ann starting to sing the Wedding March and getting our guests to join in. I was embarrassed and devastated but it's funny which memories stick and which are almost forgotten.
Pastor Ann, James and I can't thank you enough for all you did to help make our day special! You made us feel comfortable and never pressured us with any of the choices we made. And you turned a potential nightmare into a very fond memory for me. Best wishes to you and again, thank you so much!

Everything was great. Pastor Ann has a calmness about her that helps keep you confident that everything will be perfect; and at the same time she exudes an excitement and happiness that makes you even more excited for the big day, even during counseling, which we all know can be a little awkward at first.

Pastor Ann is a warm, caring, open and inviting minister. She is petite, but projects an aura of calm authority. At my daughter's wedding, she took charge of a bridal party that was not responsive to instructions from the wedding coordinator and managed to complete the rehearsal on time. Pastor Ann injects a natural humor into her rehearsals and ceremonies, not at all out of place. Our bride and groom found her wonderful to work with, and especially during pre-wedding discussions. She is a wonderful spiritual leader - non-judgemental, imparting the message of Christ's love in her words, actions, and attitude. We love Pastor Ann.

Pastor Ann was extremely helpful and friendly. She was very flexible and patient with us; as we were picky in the details of the service. She always had a smile on her face and showed intrest in getting to know our family members. She made our special event truly enjoyable.

As perfect days go, our wedding day was a very perfect day. We have always maintained that our meeting each other, and the reason we are together, is a God thing but the actual day of the wedding was a very special experience where He was very close and with us, speaking through you and your presence.

From the beginning, you walked us through the process of the wedding, assisting and giving direction to us for writing our own vows, and guiding us where we had questions. You were able to put us both at ease throughout the experience inclusive of giving the great tip during the ceremony where you correctly advised my husband to keep a tissue handy in the likely event he would get choked up during his vows!

Ann, people talk about God and being spiritual but you brought Him and His words to our day through your loving spirit and joy that made our wedding day one we will always remember and will be forever thankful.

Ann was wonderful. My husband and I had a very tight schedule during the months before our wedding. She worked around our schedule and was available for any questions we had during the whole process. Also, in our meetings with her, she offered so much guidance in regards to "how do we go from being 'together' to being a family?". The wedding service was very personal and we were able to decide how we wanted our special day to be. The amount of care and guidance she gave to us was wonderful. We will forever be thankful.

Pastor Ann is a wonderful minister. She strives to make your wedding day be exactly what the bride and groom want it to be. Her counseling sessions are very helpful and when it comes to actually planning the ceremony, she encourages the couple to find the elements of a service that are the most meaningful to them. Ann officiated at both my daughter's and my son's weddings. As a wedding coordinator, I've worked with many different ministers in a variety of different venues. Ann is always a joy to work with.

Pastor Ann provided not only the official marriage ceremony for my daughter but she helped provide a calmness and professionalism that was needed. She is kind yet her sense of humor is just perfect. She makes everyone including the bride and groom feel as special as they should be made to feel on their special day. I will never forget her performing my daughter's wedding - especially now that my daughter has gone on to be with our Lord - but I have the most wonderful memories. Money means little when you have wonderful memories. Thanks Pastor Ann!!! We love you.

Ann was very helpful and kind. She really made our day special. She was also available on short notice.
