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!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.

Couldn’t ask for a better officiant!
Paul was amazing! He really went above and beyond to make our day special. You can tell he has a passion for what he does and he was a comforting presence throughout the entire process. I highly recommend him!Paul was amazing! He really went above and beyond to make our day special.

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 fantastic.

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.Anyone who needs an officiant for their wedding Paul is the person for you.

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!Paul was great to work with!

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!Paul was excellent to work with on our wedding.

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.

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!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.

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.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.

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.Paul was very thorough in his interview with us, showing that he valued the personal touch.

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!We found Paul on WeddingWire and reached out.

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!Paul officiated our wedding this July and we could not be happier.

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.Choosing Paul was by far the easiest decision of the whole wedding planning process!
