    Exceeded our expectations!

    Rev. Tom took the time to get to know our story and included it into the ceremony. He used no script and spoke from the heart. Our guests, event staff and coordinator all took away a positive and thought provoking message. A mix of faith and fun made for a ceremony that exceeded our expectations. We felt his fee was reasonable. Garry & I HIGHLY recommend Rev. Tom and give him 10 stars!

    Chicago Wedding Guy's reply:

    Had a great time with this couple as well as their guests which were outstanding. Easy to work with, flexible and lots of fun.

    Great Officiant!

    We were very happy to have Rev. Tom officiate our wedding! Unlike other officiants we met during our search, Rev. Tom came across as very genuine and personable. We and our guests loved his reflections on what makes a good marriage successful and everlasting. He injected the right level of humor into the ceremony while retaining the more traditional tone that we sought for our wedding. We highly recommend Rev. Tom!

    Truly Amazing Officiant!!

    Rev Tom honestly did a phenomenal job. Our ceremony was truly our favorite part of the entire wedding day and that was largely due to how amazing Tom was. He spoke SO well, and had the entire ceremony memorized - everyone was raving about him afterwards. He incorporated all of our requests and he was both meaningful and funny throughout the ceremony. He even stepped out of the way for our personal vows as well as our kiss - we got some amazing photos with just the two of us because of that.

    We are so happy and so grateful to Rev Tom for making our ceremony truly magical. We wish we could relive it! Our biggest THANK YOU REV TOM!!

    Chicago Wedding Guy's reply:

    An incredible ceremony.

    From the initial consultation to the ceremony itself, we had a 10/10 experience with reverend Tom. Tom listened to our hopes for the ceremony and executed a perfect ceremony including all of our must haves. Our guests complimented the service all evening and expressed how much they enjoyed it. You can’t go wrong with Tom.
    Fun fact, he has done almost 1,000 weddings to date!

    He is awesome

    Tom was out wedding officiant for wedding this October 6, 2023. He was kind, knowledgeable, funny and knew when to be serious when it mattered most. It felt like a close family member marrying us. I highly recommend him if you decide to get married. I would gladly choose him!

    Absolutely incredible

    We are so so happy with our choice of Rev. Tom! He was absolutely amazing and the way he personalized our ceremony was perfect! Still a month later we have guests complimenting how incredible, tear and laugh filled our ceremony was. He also officiated my husbands cousins wedding 10 years ago, which was so momentous they recommended him to us. You will be so pleased if you choose Rev. Tom for your wedding🤍

    Don't hesitate to use!

    We could not have asked for a better officiant! Everything was smooth- communication was great - ceremony was perfect!

    You definitely can not go wrong having Reverent Tom at the helm of your wedding!

    Smooth easy and fun

    From start to finish, we were in great hands with Tom. He was knowledgeable, courteous, and beyond conscientious with any and all of our preferences.
    He asks great questions and clearly has an optimized system for ensuring his clients get a top notch, tailored, first class experience specific to their wishes.

    Tom is a kind and thorough man, and might be able to quote more music lyrics than everyone I know, combined.

    Thank you very much good sir!

    Rev. Tom was exactly what we needed for our wedding. He took the time to setup a meeting to get to know us and determine what was important to us for our ceremony. His delivery was excellent and helped make our wedding day even more memorable.

    Beautiful Ceremony

    Tom did a phenomenal job with our Wedding ceremony! We were especially happy with how he connected with us and our guests during the ceremony, and how he handled our inclusion of two cultural traditions. Couldn’t recommend Tom more for your big day!

    Rev Tom was the perfect balance for our ceremony!

    Rev Tom was excellent to work with for our special day. He got to know our family backgrounds and vision for the ceremony and balanced our goal of incorporating traditional/religious aspects with a lighthearted feel. We are so happy we chose Rev Tom as our officiant!

    Tom officiated our wedding on 10/17/22

    Tom was our officiant for our wedding on 10/17/22. A+++ would highly recommend him. We were looking for someone to put on a ceremony and entertain our crowd without depending on the “story” of the bride and groom meeting (like many other officiants do).

    All of our guests were extremely complimentary of the ceremony. We kept it short at about 25 minutes or so. He was professional, the ceremony was serious but also light hearted with just a hint of humor here and there. He is flexible and will make adjustments to his material based on what the bride and groom want. He has a ton of great material and put in time and effort to talk with us and get to know us via zoom before the ceremony. We were very happy with his services.

    It was 90 degrees and so humid on our wedding day and Reverend Tom did a perfect job of keeping our ceremony short and sweet! He made us feel completely at ease and was awesome at incorporating both religion and humor into our ceremony.

    Wonderful Officiant

    Reverend Tom did a wonderful job. He took the time to get to know myself and my bride and tailored the ceremony to what our wishes were. He tied our ideas in together with his knowledge to provide a ceremony to remember. He was recommended by a friend, and I am very grateful he did.

    Excellent!

    We loved having Rev. Tom Perucci as our officiant! We were looking for very meaningful and valuable ceremony that we would reference later in our marriage. His words were very thoughtful, intentional and at the same time he had just the right amount of some funny comments that would make our guests laugh and feel comfortable. We also received multiple comments from our guests how amazing he was!

    Awesome ceremony!

    After reading reviews, we knew we had to go with Rev. Tom Perrucci! We wanted a nondenominational ceremony that was light hearted, and that’s exactly what we got! It was the perfect balance of fun and serious! Numerous people told us it was the best ceremony they’ve seen, and we would whole heartedly agree. 10/10 would recommend Rev. Tom Perrucci for your wedding day!!! 💙

    Wonderful, Personalized Ceremony

    Rev. Tom Perrucci officiated our wedding this October. He did a wonderful job, with our ceremony tailored specifically as we had in mind, and with a few personalized touches that made it all the more memorable. We received so many compliments about the wonderful ceremony from our guests. It was the perfect ceremony to send us into married life together. We would highly recommend working with Rev. Tom Perrucci.

    Thorough, humorous and sentimental!

    Rev. Tom did an amazing job at our wedding! Initially we did a zoom meeting where we got to know each other and he answered all our questions. He later sent a questionnaire about specifics during the ceremony like if there were certain traditions to make time for, who's walking down the aisle, how religious the ceremony would be etc. During our ceremony he made everyone laugh, we said it was okay to be funny in the questionnaire, and he had great anecdotes and quotes about marriage. We aren't so religious but both our parents are. Rev Tom was the perfect amount of pious to not be overwhelming for us and enough so our parents would enjoy. Everyone raved about him after the ceremony. I would definitely recommend him to anyone getting married!

    You were such a joy to serve! I enjoyed all the time spent with you, as well as meeting your family & friends.

    Rev. Tom - The Perfect Officiant

    Rev. Tom was a perfect choice for our intimate ceremony. We wanted just the basics, and he was able to come perform a heartfelt, engaging, and funny ceremony for us with less than a week's notice. We were able to exchange paperwork and payment virtually. Affordable! Takes his time with us and did not rush us or make quick work of it. Very considerate in his words and actions. He put us immediately at ease; very proficient in breaking the ice with new people. Great if you want an officiant who will make you laugh! Highly Recommend! Thanks Rev!

    Fantastic!

    Rev. Tom was outstanding! We received many compliments from our guests on how beautifully and smoothly he delivered our ceremony. We had some conventional and some non-conventional aspects for our wedding and he went above and beyond with all of them. Rev. Tom incorporated the perfect amount of sincerity and humor and made my groom and I feel at ease. I can’t speak highly enough of him and will absolutely recommend him to my friends and family in the future. Thank you, Rev Tom!

    wonderful ceremony

    My husband and I were married by Reverend Tom Perrucchi a few weeks ago, and we highly recommend him as an officiant! :)

    When we first got engaged, we were relatively young at 22 and 23 years old. Other officiants we met with made us feel clueless of treated us like children, which no one wants to experience as they are getting married. When we met Tom, we immediately felt comfortable and like we could be ourselves around him. We got coffee and just talked about life, travel, and being an insurance guy. :) We knew he was the right fit for us and for the lighthearted and loving atmosphere we wanted for our wedding day.

    Two years later, after COVID precautions lifted, we finally got married and are very grateful that Tom was our officiant. He really listened to what we wanted and came up with clever suggestions to make our ceremony unique. I found myself forgetting my nerves and chuckling throughout the ceremony, and many of our guests commented that it was one of the best ceremonies they had attended. Tom brought a great balance of sincere marriage advice, light humor, and 80s pop culture references to make our ceremony meaningful and fun.

    We highly recommend for any couple to have The Chicago Wedding Guy officiate their wedding. :)

    Rev Tom Perruci was absolutely amazing! He gave us many options of how we wanted our ceremony to be! And it was absolutely perfect and he made all our guests have a big smile on their faces! I could not asked for anything more! He is the best and we loved him!

    Not A Dry Eye In The House

    My husband and I initially planned to have a friend marry us. We had to shift a lot of our plans due to COVID and one of the biggest changes was deciding 90 days out that we were going to hire an officiant. I made the poor man interview with 8 different options! Rev. Tom had officiated a family wedding my mother had attended about 4 years ago and she still talked about how amazing he was so we reached out to him and after a very lovely zoom call and days of mulling over far too many options, he was an obvious choice. The ceremony was perfect, there was levity when needed but it truly felt like there was a lot of heart within it. The people who attended in person and virtually are still telling us how lovely it was 2 months later. It was a real blessing and we were in very capable hands - I am very glad we trusted Rev. Tom with the most important day of our lives yet!

    Special and Memorable

    My husband and I just picked up our wedding license and immediately wanted to get married we came across Reverend Tom and he was so friendly and so adaptable he married us the next day. Our ceremony was so intimate just my husband and I and Rev Tom. He made it so special, meaningful, and very memorable, we couldn't ask for a better officiant.

    Perfect for our Intimate Wedding Ceremony

    Our venue recommended Rev Tom and we couldn't have been happier. He is very personable - several guests thought he was a long time friend of the family! He tailored the ceremony to exactly what we envisioned - thoughtful, thorough, and charmingly funny. We had 2 zoom meetings prior to the day and everything went as planned but even better with Rev Tom!

    He was just great !!!!

    Rev. Tom was great and accommodating we had to move our wedding to Wisconsin at the last minute due to covid regulation in IL and he did the change without a problem. He was also so professional and great to talk to! He made us laugh on the phone and during rehearsal. I was truly grateful when during the wedding ceremony he noticed I was starting to hyperventilate and he checking in on me to make sure I was ok and try to wrap things up in a flawless manner. Thanks Rev. Thomas for making our day special ! We loved the Ferris biller quote !

    'Reverently cool'

    Rev Tom was a great choice for our wedding. He is a very easy going person and fun to be around and it really comes through when he's up on the stage. He made our ceremony personal and did a great job of keeping the ceremony about us. We had several guests approach us after the ceremony and tell us how his words touched them and spoke to their relationships. Rev Tom made sure to make the ceremony how we wanted it, we are not religious and he was respectful of our choices and reflected them in his choice of readings and quotes. Overall, I would highly recommend Rev Tom to anyone in need of an officiant!

    Best wedding officiant!

    Reverend Tom was the best officiant! We received so many compliments on the ceremony with people asking how long we'd known Reverend Tom (we'd just met a few months ago). We initially had no idea what we wanted our ceremony to look like, but with Reverend Tom's guidance, we were able to come up with something that we were both really happy with. We would highly recommend him!

    Reverend Tom was EXCELLENT! We couldn't have asked for a better officiant. After the ceremony everyone was telling us how funny, entertaining and great he was. He allowed my husband and I to really be in the moment of the ceremony. It wasn't rushed and it wasn't too long. At one point he had us face each other and just look at each other and remember why we are getting married and to take it all in. I will never forget that. I'm glad he did because the rest of the night seemed to go by so fast. I'm grateful for him and his talents. It was a fantastic ceremony. And it's true what he says, he is Reverendly cool

    Tom was exceptional. He is personable and genuine and takes time out to know us as a couple. The ceremony was powerful and moving. Tom has such a comanding presence which captures the hearts and souls of many. We were very happy to have chosen him as our officiant.

    Highly Recommend

    Reverend Tom did a great job officiating our wedding. We met with a few Reverends and after meeting Rev. Tom we need he would be a good fit. He is nice, professional, funny, and personable. He will do the ceremony as you wish, and only add humor if you approve. We did, and he had our guests laughing. Most importantly, we all know the ceremony is also meant to be taken seriously, and Rev Tom knows this as well. Humor was added at the right times, which didn’t take away from the emotional times.

    Rev. Tom did our ceremony without reading off of anything, which made it flow nicely and looks very professional. He knows when to step away so photographers get a good picture of just the bride and groom. This guy knows what he’s doing.

    We had many family members ask who he was, and he got many compliments. He was so personable guests even thought he knew us. I’d recommend at least meeting with Rev. Tom to see if he will fit your wedding the way he did ours. Keep it up Rev. Tom!

    The Wedding Guy!!

    My husband and I just got married July 28, 2019 at the Marriott Lincolnshire Resort in IL. We hired Rev. Tom and right off the bat, we knew he was meant to be our officiant! I am so happy that we hired him. When we met with Tom, we told him that we wanted our wedding to be transitional, classy, modern, and with a new twist. He referenced music, he did an Irish blessing for us, he put a spin on passages from the Bible. You could really feel the love all around at our ceremony. There’s not much else to say except if you’re looking for an officiant that has spunk, class, humor, and a kind heart; you should choose Tom. Thanks, Tom!

    Great choice!

    We hired Rev Tom for our July wedding and he was great. I love that he does not use any papers or books and speaks from memory the whole time. It made our ceremony much more personal and like he had known us for a long time. When people asked where I found him and I told them "the internet" most people were so surprised! Our wedding was a perfect day and it would not have been so without Tom. Thanks again!

    It was a breeze with Rev. Tom :-)

    Rev. Tom is now a household name for us. He officiated my brother's wedding a few years back and recently officiated mine. He is familiar with different wedding traditions and even showed us a list of what we could include in the ceremony. When I brought up my preference to add the Filipino ways in our ceremony, he was all in and had a very comprehensive and easy to understand explanation of the each step. With these, even those not familiar with the tradition appreciated what was happening - like the coins, veil and cord. We are very grateful for this. Our wedding ceremony was so meaningful with how Rev. Tom lead it.

    Highly Recommended

    Rev. Tom performed a ceremony that not only spoke to our hearts - but to the hearts of our guests as well. We also received comments and compliments on the wisdom he shared. We will always remember his words. Thank you!

    Heartfelt, fun and memorable ceremony!

    Rev. Tom Perrucci officiated our wedding this past weekend and did an amazing job! We met with Rev. Tom in person a few months before the wedding and had a great initial conversation and knew he would be a great fit for us! Rev. Tom listened to our requests and gave a very heartfelt and memorable ceremony for us! Our guests even commented on how his words and advice were so moving and how great of a job he did! I will definitely recommend Rev. Tom to other couples who are in need of an officiant!

    You were such a great couple to work with! I enjoyed all the time I spent with you, and wish you the very best in your new life together!

    Rev. Tom gave us the perfect ceremony!

    Rev Tom was great! He officiated my sisters wedding, and all of the guests loved him! When I got engaged, my fiancé and I knew we needed him to marry us too! I received so many compliments on Reverend Tom! Everyone thought he was sweet and funny. He is very thorough and wants to give you the exact ceremony that you want. Everything was perfect and I will always tell my friends about him for any future weddings!

    Chicago Wedding Guy's reply:

    The only wedding officiant you should consider

    We chose Rev. Tom to be our wedding officiant after viewing his webpage and seeing videos of weddings he has conducted previously and we immediately felt a personal connection to him. We met with Rev. Tom a month prior to our wedding date to go over our wishes for the ceremony and he gave his input as well. The meeting was great because we felt as if we were listened to and he genuinely cares about what we wanted and how much it meant to us. About a week after our meeting, he emailed us a detailed breakdown of how the ceremony would go and in the order it would occur. We also had the option to make any adjustments that we wanted as he is extremely opened to any kind of ceremony (we did not want any mention of god and he was supportive of our wishes). On the day of our wedding, he was punctual to our location along the Chicago River (he was there before we even arrived). The ceremony was conducted exactly to what was discussed and planned and our families loved his personal touch and professionalism to our ceremony. It made already a memorable day even better. If you choose anyone but Rev. Tom, you will regret it.

    Excellent Experience

    Reverend Tom was amazing to work with for our ceremony! He was so flexible and helpful. He gave us great information and tools to work with concerning our vows. He delivered them beautifully and made our day so very special. He is great to work with! We are already planning another event and we will definitely have Reverend Tom there again!! Highest possible recommendation!

    Winter Wedding at Hotel Baker

    Tom performed the ceremony for our wedding at Hotel Baker on Dec 29, 2018. Could not have been more happy with how everything went! Had about 20 or so guests asking me who he was and where we found him; everyone was really appreciative of how he carried himself and how relaxed yet dignified the whole ceremony was. You only get one chance to make the right decision on an officiant, and it was a great feeling to know that we made the right one!

    Incredible!!!

    Reverend Tom was amazing!!! Down to earth and light hearted! What we loved about him was that he takes the time to get to know you as a couple before officiating your wedding! He’s not just in it for money. He doesn’t read from a book at the ceremony so it’s not scripted! He even steps to the side when you say your vows so the moment is really between you and your spouse! What’s even better is the photographer then captures that moment of just you two without anyone in the background! Reverend Tom was incredible and we couldn’t be happier! Thank you again for making our day even more magical!

    Tom officiated our wedding in August 2018, and we were very pleased with his ceremony, professionalism, and service. We couldn't have been more pleased with the ceremony! We expressed to Tom how we wanted a casual ceremony with a prayer and some religion mixed in, and he delivered. The ceremony was beautifully done, and right around 25 mins. Our guests raved about the ceremony. Tom is an excellent speaker and officiant, and i would highly recommend his services to anyone.

    Rev Thomas was wonderful! We hired him from out of state and didn't meet him until the rehersal. We communicated via telephone and email, and he was very responsive and informative. We liked his personality right away and knew he was the one for us. Rehersal was organized and the ceremony went smoothly. It was a bit longer than expected and it was a very very hot and humid day, so I the only thing I would say is that I wish he had gone faster or organized a signal to wrap it up. He was lighthearted and made appropriate jokes. Overall great experience!

    Subject: An absolute delight to work with
    I can't say enough about Rev.Tom exceptional effort to make our ceremony meaningful, fun, and memorable. I was very apprehensive about hiring a professional minister but Rev.Tom has changed my view about that. He was very responsive and provided such invaluable guidance in helping us have a great ceremony.All the guests we spoke were so impressed with his quality of service.. absolutely reverent and cool. I highly recommend him. You can't go wrong and you won't regret choosing him for an officiant.Hope to have him for vow renewals some day.

    Choosing an officiant was stressing us out, but I'm so glad we went with our gut and chose Rev. Tom! He was easy to work with and our guests could not stop gushing about how awesome he was during the ceremony because his words were powerful and beautifully spoken. Thank you SO much for making our ceremony perfect!

    My husband and I hired Rev Tom for our wedding last month and he was great! Rev Tom had many different options for our ceremony including different religious or nonreligious elements as well as various readings to choose from (with the option to customize to fit our needs). We really liked that Rev Tom provided the option to include some lighthearted humor in our ceremony, as a 100% serious ceremony does not fit me and my husbands' personalities. Rev Tom flawlessly mixed in a little humor without taking away from the important meaningful elements of the ceremony. Our ceremony was amazing, Rev Tom is a great speaker and the messages he gives come from the heart. Highly recommend!

    Rev Tom's ceremony was so inspiring and engaging, we can't recommend him enough! Rev. Tom spoke candidly and sincerely about the many seasons of a marriage in realistic and tender terms. Sooo many of our guests approached us after the ceremony to tell us how much they identified with every word of our ceremony and how much they enjoyed listening, that it wasn't a boring ceremony like so many other weddings they'd attended. This was feedback from guests married for a few years to over 40 years! Rev. Tom was very approachable during our consultation and went over all the steps of the ceremony in detail to put us at ease. He also has a warm sense of humor and read the audience well. Thank you!

    Rev Tom was the perfect officiant for our wedding. We both grew up catholic so wanted to keep the ceremony ceremonial with some religious elements and he understood exactly what we were looking for. Our family and friends keep talking about how special our ceremony was. They could blink and miss it like quick officiants. He kept to the timeline we discussed and had great planning suggestions and guidance. Thank rev Tom!

    Rev. Tom was a joy to work with! When we first met him, we sat and chatted for 2 hours! We knew right away that we wanted him to officiate our ceremony. He gave us so much good information when we first met with him--it was very detailed and explicit. He showed us videos of the weddings he's performed as well as gave us a checklist to detail out exactly what we wanted our ceremony to look like. We were able to email, call or text him whenever we needed. He also gave us several samples of readings to choose from and passages he could use in his ceremony.
    One of the things we loved most about him--he MEMORIZES the entire ceremony as well as everyone's names!! It is truly incredible and personal. He is very purposeful with his placement during the ceremony which allows for perfect photos. He is happy to include whatever we wanted during the ceremony including humor. We loved that he included humor into our day--it made it so much more real and relevant to us and our guests. He was also extremely accommodating when I needed to make a last minute change to our rehearsal time.
    He was on time and friendly and had a lot of fun with us during the rehearsal and the day of the wedding. He also submitted our marriage license on our behalf to the county for us.
    I would definitely recommend Rev. Tom to anyone needing a Reverend for their wedding ceremony. You will not be disappointed!

    Rev Tom was great. Our first meeting he took his time to get to know us and go over various options for the ceremony. He is very easy to talk to, very friendly and a good sense of humor. He can be humorous, which we liked, but on the day of the ceremony, he was completely rehearsed, extremely professional and delivered a great ceremony and made our guests actually enjoy the ceremony. My guests complimented us on how well he did and said it was the first time they had even laughed at a ceremony. Price wise, I would say he is about average compared to others we inquired with. Luckily, it was well worth it, we had to do very little preparation for our ceremony, he took over the rest. Highly recommend Reverend Tom!

    Rev Tom made our wedding ceremony very inspiring and touching. EVERYBODY...friends young and old have given us positive feedback about the entire ceremony.
    My husband is the most challenging to convince spiritually but a few days after our wedding, he would remind me, "Rev Tom said this...said that..."
    Rev Tom created an impact on him.
    I once had a concern about the wedding and called Rev Tom.
    He patiently listened to me. He was attentive and gave me his time in working it out and gave me options to resolve it.
    If we would have to do it again, we would still choose Rev Tom to officiate our ceremony.
    My mother-in-law was impressed on how he inspired our family and guests in the ballroom

    Without a doubt, exceeded our expectations. Did not have a pre-existing relationship with Rev. Tom, but met with him, and felt at ease with our decision to officiate our ceremony. He was more than punctual at the rehearsal & the 'big day'. A week after the event, we are still getting guests compliments about him. A+

    I chose Tom Perrucci to be our officiant and I am very glad we did. He was awesome! He knew exactly how to make a ceremony memorable and was very good at his job. He helped me figure out how I wanted to do things and had great ideas. He was very patient with my wedding party and directed them very well, mind you...there were TWENTY FIVE people in my wedding party and he managed to make it work beautifully. He was on time for our initial meet, the rehearsal and the ceremony. I totally recommend booking him,

    My husband and I absolutely loved Rev Tom! Along with all of our guests! He made our ceremony fun..he was funny and serious at the same time which we loved...So many of our friends and family came up to us after the ceremony and said how great he was..If you're looking for somebody to officiate your wedding, I most definitely recommend him! Thank you again for being apart of our special day...We will never forget you!

    What ever you envision your dream wedding ceremony to be, Rev. Tom will make it happen! Having Rev. Tom be the officiant for our NYE wedding was one of the best decisions we made. Rev. Tom listened to our wants, shared his ideas through the years of experience he has, and made the whole process super easy and smooth. I promise you will not stress one bit if you book him! It was different for both our families that our wedding ceremony was not in the traditional church setting but Rev. Tom comforted everyone with his ability to provide us with a ceremony that met all of our wants and needs- personal, romantic, insightful, funny, with a perfect religious touch per our request. Our guests seriously came up to us the entire cocktail hour gushing how our ceremony was one of the best they have seen. Thank you Rev. Tom!

    Rev Tom officiated our wedding and people are still talking about it. He was thoughtful in his words, always on time and friendly. I would definitely recommended him to any engaged couple -Christina and Mike Gabbard

    We received a lot of positive feedback from friends and family after our ceremony with Rev Tom. Our ceremony could not have gone more smoothly, and we are so happy we chose him. He was very flexible with what we wanted to include/exclude, and our ceremony felt like us. He is simply the best!

    We loved Rev. Tom and our guests did too. We only met Rev. Tom once before our rehearsal, but he was so helpful and our guests all felt that he had known us for a lot longer than he did. We also really appreciated his attention to detail. Our ceremony coordinator helped, but Rev. Tom really stepped in and made us think about certain placements that we would not have if he didn't bring it up! Thank you so much Rev. Tom and I hope our paths cross again.

    My wife was skeptical at first about choosing an officiant from an online source. Needless to say, we were extremely happy with our choice and couldn't have done better. We were surprised at the amount of time Rev. Perrucci took to get to know us as a couple and inquire about all aspects of our lives. More importantly, the time he spent with us did not feel forced and I believe it was the genuine love he has for what he does. Many individuals present at our wedding commented about the wonderful job he did and we have to agree. Due to our wedding ceremony being outside and rain coming inbound, we were forced to move inside and Rev. Perrucci adapted quickly, We feel blessed to have had the opportunity to have Rev. Perrucci at our wedding.
