Kristine Sent on 08/13/2021Best officiant ever!
Cory is the BEST! We are wedding photographers in the Richmond, VA area, and having worked with Cory on other weddings, we knew there was no one else we would want to marry us. He took time to interview us prior to the big day, and then with the most perfect words, he told our story. He even incorporated our 4 children into our ceremony with personal vows. The whole room was in tears. Later in the evening, everyone was coming up to us and raving about Cory and how the ceremony was such a highlight of the day. He is funny and charismatic, and he truly cares about his couples. I cannot thank Cory enough for being there for us as we started our journey as husband and wife. Perfection! -

This wedding was a destination for most people and we did not realize that our officiant wasn’t ordained and licensed properly for the state of Virginia. 2 weeks prior to the wedding we scrambled and had to find a minister! Cory and his team came thru immediately. They were communicative, gracious and saved our day! Use them! -

Rev. Chuck was amazing! I'd seen Rev. Cory and his compatriots in action at other weddings and knew that when my time came it could be no one else in charge. From our initial conversations by email and thru their website, to the in person meeting and detailed questionnaire, they truly get to know you, your style, your hopes and vision and personality and make sure that it is stamped all over your ceremony. He created a service from scratch that was perfectly us. And his "Remember, this is your day, I do all the heavy lifting" mantra was much appreciated and very true. From the moment our service started until we floated out on a cloud of smiles and applause, he expertly guided the whole process. -

Will Sent on 11/05/2023Not a Dry Eye in the House
Dr. Patsy Branch (formerly Watson) of Rev. Cory Newell and Associates officiated our wedding on 10/28/23. She did an absolutely beautiful job officiating our ceremony and we received so many compliments from our guests about her lovely words. There were not many dry eyes in the room. She did a great job making the ceremony feel personal to us and she was also so much fun! It was truly a pleasure to work with her. -

We had the best experience working with Rev. Charles. He got to know our love story and incorporated the details in his readings during our ceremony. The ceremony brought everyone to tears! He is so friendly and easy to work with. I would give him more than 5 stars if I could, I 100% recommend working with him. -

Chelsea Sent on 10/27/2022Amazing work wouldn’t pick anybody else!
I got married September 24 and Rev. Charles Daniel did our ceremony. From the moment I found the site it was 100% stress free! Everything is super simple to do. They basically take care of any and everything you need. He even typed up and printed out my vows for me. His energy was amazing at the ceremony. My family absolutely loved him. He had my whole family ready to use him for their weddings. I can’t thank him enough for the help and joy he showed everybody. -

Brandon Sent on 10/26/2022Thank you, Chaplain Will
We thoroughly enjoyed having Chaplain Will preside over our ceremony. He took the time prior to the wedding to get to know us and out back story and made sure to include little bits of that in our service. He cracked jokes to lighten the mood and was an overall calming presence to a stressful day. I'd highly recommend him to anyone. -

Amanda Sent on 10/23/2022Rev. Cory & Chaplain Will Made for the Perfect Wedding Experience!
Reverend Cory & Chaplain Will were amazing to work with in preparation for our October 2022 wedding. Their dashboard was easy to work with and communicate with the team. Chaplain Will was very kind and a pleasure to work with. He created a unique, heartfelt ceremony specific to my husband and I; he also coordinated very well with our day-of coordinator which helped the day go perfectly. -

James Sent on 06/02/2022Flexible, and knows how to get a crowd excited and involved!
Receptive to feedback, was able to use the information we provided to make the ceremony personal to us. Lots of laughs, and tears. And a few cheers.
Gave us the options of a more or less traditional ceremony. We went for the latter, and weren’t disappointed! -

From the start of planning all the way to after the wedding, Cory was PERFECT. He really took the time to get to know my husband and I as a couple and took a genuine interest in our story. He made our ceremony so exciting, funny, and interactive. After the ceremony, all of our guests commented on how much they loved our officiant. The prices of his services are more than reasonable and we are more than glad that we chose him for our special day. Book him for your wedding!!!! You won’t regret it! -
