    Made our day perfect!

    We planned our wedding at Phipps long distance. Ron made the options of services easy, and allowed us to make any changes we wanted for what to include or exclude; it was totally up to us. As the day approached, since we had never crossed paths with Ron in our every day lives, we met up for coffee a couple days prior to our ceremony. It was very much like catching up with an old friend...which put us at ease. Through the whole process, Ron was available for answering any questions or talking through anything we needed to. His experience and guidance kept us from forgetting anything. Our guests remarked how the ceremony just fit us and our personalities. He felt like family at the end of the ceremony as we were saying our goodbyes.

    September wedding

    My husband, Matt and I have nothing but amazing things to say about Minister Ronald Cambest. His professionalism and caring personality created the perfect atmosphere during our ceremony. He took into consideration all of our personal needs and made sure we were completely satisfied each step of the planning process. Communication was easy and efficient! He provided us many examples and documents of past ceremonies to help give us ideas to create our own perfect event. Overall, he was the best and made our day amazing!

    From the beginning Ron was amazing to work with and by far the easiest part of planning our wedding. He made our ceremony very personable and enjoyable for all involved.

    Geri and Brian's wedding

    Mr R. Cambest made the whole process a breeze. He helped us put together a ceremony that was right for us well in advance of the wedding date. Was quick to respond to all correspondence and made sure we had all information we would need. Both in correspondence and day of ceremony he was nothing but polite and professional. He did a wonderful job performing our ceremony.

    Out of this world

    Ronald was absolutely amazing! I would literally hire him 10x over. He made this process smooth and easy and as stress free as he possibly could ! The thought and dedication that he goes into to make our ceremony perfect is out of this world. He has multiple of resources and poems and outlines for you to choose from so everything is to your liking and personalized. He really is so personable it’s felt like I’ve known him forever now. I literally couldn’t be any happier. I would 10/10 recommend to everyone !

    Professional, Passionate, & Friendly

    Right off the bat, Ron won us over when we had our first phone call with him, while he was on a cruise. He is friendly, inviting, and really invested in making your ceremony exactly as you want it. He offers great advice along the way even if you don't have a game plan in mind. He easily meshed our preferred ceremony outline with some of his templates that we chose. Everyone at our ceremony raved about his ethos and how well the ceremony played out. Highly recommend Ron's services for an unforgettable ceremony/wedding.

    Fast, flexible, and fun

    Very professional, with plenty of options to make sure everything goes as you plan. Ronald mentioned that he was also a therapist outside of his officiant work, which was clearly demonstrated in his ability to connect with his clients as an officiant - his friendly personality and sense of humor before, during, and after the ceremony put our minds at ease as soon as he arrived.

    The awards he's received for this are well-earned - you won't go wrong choosing him for your day.

    No Stress Solution

    We wanted a small, intimate wedding in our home- and Ronald was the perfect solution. He gave us plenty of options for our ceremony and made the process very easy. We emailed back and forth to iron out all of the details- and he was quick to respond and answered any questions/concerns that I had about the day!

    We loved how organized he was and provided us with ideas for simple vows that we wanted for our intimate wedding

    We enjoyed meeting Ronald and having him be the officiant at our wedding on December 17, 2022 at Fairmont Pittsburgh downtown. He arrived early to ensure that we knew where to stand and went over things, which I appreciated a lot and it made me have less stress. He a friendly and fun guy, really nice. We are very happy that we chose him and I know that you will be too!

    Wonderful Experience

    Working with Ron was a wonderful experience. Meeting him for the first time, you could feel the warmth and genuineness he brings into his work. It was important for us to find someone who honored and understood the way our faith has shaped our relationship, and he did just that.

    He walked us through the process of creating our ceremony script with scripture, poems and professional insight, handled sending our marriage license paperwork to the court, and provided resources for post-wedding name change and license acquisition. You could feel that he was genuinely grateful to be a part of our story

    A class act

    Ron is a total class act as a wedding officiant who adds charming touch with a great tone of voice and shining smile. The ceremony was exactly what we wanted, short, sweet and personal. My guests were convinced that Ron was related to one of us and they thoroughly enjoyed the choice and delivery of the vows.

    Minister Ronald J. Cambest BSW

    Ron was tremendous to us from the first time we contacted him to even after our wedding helping us to change my name. Ron is responsive, professional yet still keeps things light and fun. He provided us with lots of resources to make our ceremony custom and special. Highly recommend! 10/10

    Best Wedding Officiant!

    Minister Cambest was a wonderful officiant! He was extremely responsive and helpful with all of the questions we had leading up to our wedding. He also gave us many different ceremony options to choose from and allowed us to customize them as we saw fit for us. From the time we first met him, to the day of our wedding, he was very easy to work with and it was apparent that he truly cared about our wants and wishes for our ceremony. On the day of our wedding, the ceremony was lovely and ran smoothly thanks to Minister Cambest! Would definitely recommend!

    Perfect Officiant!

    Our journey with Rev. Cambest started way back in February of 2020. Our original wedding date was supposed to be 7/18/20, but of course that was delayed because of covid. Rev. Cambest didn’t miss a beat and was super accommodating during our transition to a new date. He laid out all of our options and was able to work around our preferences with ease. I forgot to mention that the time of the ceremony changed as well as the date. This was not communicated to Rev. Cambest until less than 2 hours before the event, and he still showed up on time! He’s very well spoken and charismatic, and we will never forget the ceremony he gave us.

    Simplistic

    I reached out to Minister Cambest about 4 months before our desired wedding date. It was a surprise to my wife because I was flying her kids out for the ceremony. We wanted simple, and just us. Minister Cambest suggested the primary location, as well as coming up with a couple of other options should the weather not cooperate. I cannot thank him enough for everything!!

    Highly recommend

    Minister Ronald made the ceremony process so easy for us. He gave us sample ceremonies to look at and allowed us to make any modifications that we wanted as many times as needed. He sends in all of the paper work for you so there is nothing to do on your end once you are completed with the ceremony at the wedding. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant.

    So beautiful!!

    Minister cambest did an AMAZING job officiating our July 2021 ceremony. He was very responsive and kind over email and even more friendly in person. Many of the guests commented on how seamless the ceremony went and how emotional and touching the words were. He allows you to personally tailor the ceremony so it is just how you want it. We went with a semi religious with traditional vows and loved it!! You can’t go wrong with minister cambest!

    Best ceremony ever!

    Ronald did such a beautiful job with our ceremony. His word were beautiful and I cannot tell you how many people said how lovely the speech was. Almost everyone came up to me and said the ceremony was beautiful and the officiant was amazing. He spoke so well. He made the process super easy and was very responsive. We got to customize our vows. He was very easy going and took care of the marriage license for us. He also gave us great tips for the name change. I truly cannot recommend him enough! Thank you Ronald!!

    Mr. Cambest is great!

    Mr. Cambest was great! We did not meet him until the day of the wedding and he was so polite and warm and he made me feel like he knew me forever. I love that he sent us ceremonies to choose from to make the process easier, and during the ceremony it sounded like he knew Antonio I our whole lives. He was overall great and would definitely recommend him to other people.

    Best Minister Ever!! Married 10/10/2020

    Everything was perfect! Responses through emails were very quick. Easy to pick from his ceremonies/vows or you can do your own. Gave excellent advice for how to do segments of the ceremony (especially for being at Phipps Conservatory for a rose ceremony and unity candle ceremony). So nice and kind, helps the Groom calm down before the ceremony. No rehearsal required and it went smoothly. Provided our marriage license to our county immediately with no issues. Minister Cambest is the best!!! Great for short and sweet ceremonies! We were nervous and didn't want a long ceremony. Thank you so much, Minister Cambest!
