    Very Responsive and Great Personality

    Paul already had stellar reviews when we came across his website, and after meeting him it was clear why. He is very responsive and is a pleasure to work with. He is invested in creating the ceremony you want and his price is very reasonable. We recommended him to my brother-in-law and he performed their ceremony as well. Can’t recommend him enough!

    Absolutely Amazing

    Paul was absolutely amazing as our officiant! :) We had one meeting before the wedding at a Dunkin Donuts. He made us both feel super comfortable, and went through the whole process with us patiently. We couldn't recommend him highly enough!

    Getting married made stressless

    Paul was fantastic. He was professional, knew what questions to ask, sent the ceremony in advance for our review and had meetings to make sure it's what we wanted. He is overall a great guy that won't let you down!

    Paul was an excellent choice!

    Paul is professional, friendly, responsive and helpful. Paul helped us with every step of our ceremony and made it an easy process. Questions were answered promptly, he gave suggestions when asked and was very accommodating. He was also very reasonably priced compared to others! If you’re looking for an officiant I highly recommend Paul!

    Wedding Day 2022!

    Paul was excellent to work with on our wedding. We are from Texas and wanted a destination wedding in Niagara Falls, so Paul took great care of us. He even suggested a few spots around the Falls that we scouted out once we arrived and settled on a beautiful spot on Goat Island. The ceremony was perfect! Paul was so easy to work with, he made a few suggestions and left us alone to decide what we wanted. I recommend Paul to anyone planning a wedding in that area!

    Fall Perfection

    Anyone who needs an officiant for their wedding Paul is the person for you. He made me and my wife’s elopement stress free, but still memorable. He was an effective communicator before the big day to make sure all details were exactly how we wanted. He went off the beaten path to get to the perfect spot for our ceremony in front of a waterfall. Don’t waste time shopping around for other officiants and hire Paul.

    The perfect ceremony!

    Paul was great to work with! He went through everything with us beforehand and made sure we had the exact ceremony we wanted. He arrived to the wedding early and even gave us a copy of our wedding ceremony printed out as a keepsake! Several people asked if we knew him ahead of time because he was able to make our ceremony so personal. Highly recommended!

    July 8th Wedding

    Paul was very professional and easy to work with. He gave us several samples for our ceremony, but was completely willing to use my selection. I would highly recommend!

    Beautiful Ceremony

    Paul was very nice, flexible with meeting times and open to all our ideas. We worked well together coming up with the setup of our ceremony. He is great with the shorter service, and got everything done in a very timely manner. Such a great guy, and I love how affordable he was.

    Perfect! Zero complaints!

    From start to finish, our experience with Paul was great. First off, his price is extremely reasonable compared to a lot of others in the area. Second, Paul was very flexible throughout the process. Whether we met on Zoom or in person, it was a pleasure interacting with Paul in preparation for our big day. The best thing about Paul was his willingness to not only share examples of readings, prayers, rituals, etc, but how accommodating he was and how he allowed us to customize everything to our liking. That, along with the proactive communication was top notch. And in addition to all of that, he even mails the marriage license for you once it’s signed. Easy Peezy!

    Very Positive!

    Paul was friendly, personable, and professional throughout the entire process! He laid out several ideas for the readings, and let us make adjustments to truly make it our own while seamlessly blending our love for each other and it's backstory throughout.

    Seamless! He is very organized and professional.

    Choosing Paul was by far the easiest decision of the whole wedding planning process! He made it incredibly simple for us with options and packages laid out. We could mix and match to make the ceremony our own. He was even flexible with adding something completely new to make it what we wanted. We are so grateful that we chose Paul to marry us.

    Paul was very thorough in his interview with us, showing that he valued the personal touch. He has a notebook with a large variety of readings to choose from and several options for different types of ceremonies. We were very pleased with the way he officiated.

    The most genuine officiant you could find!

    We found Paul on WeddingWire and reached out. He got back to us right away and scheduled a meeting with us. We met and talked for a nice hour about us as a couple and what we wanted in our ceremony. Paul specializes in making the ceremony as unique to the couple as possible. For ours, we made our ceremony religious and about dogs! It was so perfect for us. He gave us copies of everything beforehand so we could review and review and review. During the ceremony, he knew exactly when to step aside for photos (something I never would have thought of). Everyone loved his words and the ceremony was heavenly. Paul is definitely the way to go for officiants!

    Highly Recommend

    Paul officiated our wedding this July and we could not be happier. When I originally reached out to him he was responsive, explained in detail what the process would be, and stayed in communication leading up to our ceremony. He was willing to accommodate our requests and tailored the ceremony to fit our personal beliefs. After the ceremony he dropped off our marriage certificate in the mail (which was very helpful as you have a million other things to do). Would absolutely recommend!

    The wedding of our dreams

    Paul is truly an amazing officiant, he listened to exactly what my husband and I wanted and helped us make our dream a reality throughout the way. Covid threw us a lot of wrenches through the planning process and Paul was flexible and willing to continue to work with us to make our wedding dreams a reality ! His prices are amazing , and a rehearsal with him is worth the extra money as my wedding party felt confident in what to do on the big day ! Thank you again Paul you are amazing !

    Best Officiant out there!

    Paul was great to work with! He helped us come up with a ceremony that fit us perfectly. We were able to have several meetings and he was willing to be flexible throughout this whole COVID wedding time frame. He was also SO much fun we welcomed him to stay and hang out during the reception too. We would definitely recommend you choose Paul!

    We were very very nervous and Paul made it so easy and relaxing. He even took the time to do our wedding twice. Due to covid 19 we had a small wedding and then a one. He did a great job for both

    Paul did an amazing job! He was very professional and made sure we felt comfortable with every part of the ceremony. He put together a lovely ceremony and was very well prepared. We loved having Paul as our officiant for our special day and we are certain you will too!!

    Absolutely perfect

    He was so awesome with us! I planned our wedding in two weeks and from Michigan! He worked with me so well and even squeezed us in that day! He really did such an heart warming job. Thank you again for being apart of our big day!

    Paul did our wedding for us on 8/18/18. He was very professional, organized, and responsive. He worked with us to customize the service to be exactly what we wanted. He worked with the coordinator at the rehearsal to make sure everyone knew what to do and what was going to happen. He did a great job for us the day of the ceremony and I would highly recommend him.

I would refer him 100 times over again! He is so organized and knowledgeable, and has a true passion and commitment to this work. Thanks so much, Paul!!! You're the best!

    Paul was absolutely amazing, such a pleasure to work with him! He was very flexible and open, between arranging meetings and choosing aspects of our ceremony. He's a incredibly nice person and was helpful with the entire process before and after the wedding. He even mailed our wedding certificate! I couldn't possibly recommend Paul more - if you need an officiant, pick him!

    Happy Budget Bride

    We couldn't have made a better choice when we chose Paul as our wedding officient! We first spoke to Paul at a Bridal Show where we'd won a framed photograph he took outside the George Eastman house. Since then, we'd had many meetings with him where he made sure we were comfortable with the process and allowed us to discuss what we wanted him to talk about, with no pressure. Once we gave him all the details of how we met and what our lives together have been like, he went home and had us the first draft of a ceremony within 24 hours. He also allowed us to make changes whenever needed, and made sure he was inclusive of all backgrounds no matter how diverse our family was (very diverse).

    He was also well worth the money, considering he didn't ask much for the kind of service he provided. He even ensured my wife had somewhere to put her vows both before and after she read them, because dresses don't have pockets.

    If you're getting married, Paul is a no-brainer when it comes to your wedding officiant!

    Paul was absolutely fantastic. He married my mom and stepdad two years ago and today he married my husband and I. Not only is he kind and professional, but he agreed to marry us with less than one weeks notice. We could not have imagined our simple ceremony going any better and we attribute much of that to Paul!

    Paul did a fantastic job officiating our wedding. From our initial meeting to the day of he was extremely professional and easy to work with. The only guidelines my husband and I had for our ceremony was something short and sweet and Paul was able to give us a bunch of options to choose from and tailored the perfect ceremony for us. He sent our marriage license in to the local town clerk promptly and our marriage certificates were waiting for us when we got back from our honeymoon.

    I would highly recommend Paul!

    I was trying to coordinate a wedding on behalf of our daughter. She and her fiancé are both in the Army, stationed in Alabama, and due to changes in their circumstances, they decided to marry earlier than anticipated. I had a month and a half to pull their wedding together. I found Paul online and he was very affordable. Thankfully, he was available when I needed him. I needed an officiant who was professional in every way--reliable, proactive, responsive, adaptable, and articulate, and I found that Paul's many 5-star reviews were well earned. He was great at follow-up and making sure all our I's were dotted and T's were crossed to ensure that the wedding ceremony went smoothly and according to law. I'd recommend him without hesitation to anyone, whether for a religious or non-denominational ceremony.

    We are so very lucky to have found Paul to guide our wedding ceremony. Paul was readily in-touch during the months leading up to our wedding regarding the details and specifics of our wedding. We had quite a fair number of rather unique components to our wedding and our ceremony, and Paul was not only flexible, but helpful and supportive of those unique components. I think he truly enjoyed guiding us through our ceremony, and we SURELY enjoyed him doing so! Paul is even-keeled, with a kind and clear voice, and a fantastic selection of beautifully written options for the ceremony itself. He knew just how to accent our interests and the concepts we felt to be important. Paul also did a 9am rehearsal with us the day before our wedding, on rather short notice, and this was the very morning after his return from vacationing in Europe! I cannot tell you how many people approached us to tell us that our ceremony was literally the best they've ever attended, hitting notes of Carl Sagan and star-dust at our request. You simply could not ask for a more helpful and kind person, who truly loves doing this, to officiate your wedding. Well done Paul, and thank you so very much.

    Paul was an amazing officiant and helped my husband and I pick out a ceremony that not only would please our families but truly fit our personality. Paul had even found a new type of unity ceremony where we used chocolate to show that we loved each other. I would recommend him to anyone that is going to be getting married.

    I got married on September 12th of this year. I had only been engaged since May! I contacted Paul and he was fabulous! Considering there was a bit of distance, our communication was mostly through E-mail. Very quick in getting back to me and willing to let me make changes if I needed with ease. I would recommend Paul for any wedding occasion!

    Paul had very flexible dates and my wedding was on a Saturday and I got my Marriage License back on Wednesday. It was so much faster than what I thought I would be.
    He had like 24 hours to prepare the votes of my wedding because I talked to him that I need asap an Officiant to the next day and he was there on time and had a lot of sweet and romantic things to say. For sure having somebody so professional made my day much unforgettable!

    Paul was really great to work with! We did this remotely from Washington, DC and he was super flexible getting our information and putting together a plan.

    I would recommend!
