  Best Wedding Officiant in the Atl

  We are so thrilled that we were able to have Pastor Ponder perform our wedding ceremony. His words of wisdom and encouragement on how to make a marriage work still lives with us today. His professionalism and caring nature speaks volumes on the time of man he is. Derrick and I thank you so much for making this day as special as it could be.

  Grateful for your commitment, professionalism, and most of all your time.

  He has given voice to the love that my now husband and I share for one another, and I cannot thank him enough.

  Beyond expectations!

  Pastor Ponder was beyond professional and responsive! We were very fortunate to have booked him on an already popular date. He performed a heartwarming and beautiful ceremony! I would definitely recommend him as an officiant and we were honored to have had him for our special day!

  Amazing experience to a memorable date.

  Julius did not measure efforts to make this day the way we dreamed of. We are truly appreciative for everything he has done for us.

  Our Amazing Officiant

  Pastor Ponder was absolutely amazing. He did an excellent job officiating our wedding ceremony. He was very accommodating to our request of having a chain exchange to welcome my husband into my and my son's family. I am truly happy we chose Pastor Ponder as our officiant.

  The BEST! No Questions

  My new wife and I really wanted an officiant that had a great personality, funny, charismatic, enlightening, a wordsmith, etc... Pastor Ponder delivered on every level possible. He got to know what we like/love and customized our ceremony so well! We smiled, we laughed, I cried (yes, I cried and I’m proud of it), Pastor Ponder have amazing relationship advice while keeping it light and lively. We have and will continue to recommend Pastor Pinder for anyone looking for an officiant to marry them.

  Heart Felt, Amazing, Best Ever

  Pastor Ponder was hands down the best ever. When I tell you he became our life coach too Im not lying. He got to know us on such a deep level and revealed things that we didn't even know about each other & made us stronger than ever. His premarital counseling was life and his words at our wedding moved us to tears and our soul shaking. He is a gift from GOD, his words and voice beyond powerful. Thank you so much for fitting us in last minute and being patient with us when we were all over the place. If you are serious about getting married then PastorPonder is the one you need to talk too! Seriously!! PastorPonder we love you!! Thank YOU!!!

  DR Wedding

  
  
  I couldn't remember where I needed to add my review so here it is for you to add.
  
  
  My husband and I got married on Sept 15th 2018 and we couldn’t have been happier with Julius being the officiant at our wedding. We personally enjoyed how he was able to engage with not only us but our guest. He was able to express the importance of marriage and its foundation and provide humor. He was very professional and heartfelt. We thoroughly knew our guest adored him as they approached him and expressed how they too appreciated the message he delivered during the ceremony. We would highly recommend Julius to be an officiant at your ceremony.

  A Dream Come True

  Having being raised in the church, there had always been a family debate about which family member officiate my wedding. By the time I met the man of dreams, I knew that I could not risk and tension on our special day by choosing a single family member. My Fiance and I began searching for an officiant until we were introduced to Paster Ponder. He had the same values that my family cherished, had an understanding perspective of a married man, and gave us advice and compassion from day one. My wedding ceremony was perfect and my family couldn't have been more happy about our selection. Thank you for helping our family celebrate our dream wedding!

  Great to work with!

  Pastor Ponder was great! He was a gentleman, honest and made us feel comfortable every step of the way. We met for an initial consultation, which went well. Our personalities meshed well and we thought he'd be a great fit for our wedding. He provided a script upon request and was willing to work within our budget. He was versatile in his approach and willing to accomodate the various cultural aspects we incorporated into out wedding. I have no complaints and would definitely recommend him to others for their special day!
