    Sam was extremely professional and helped make my wedding day perfect! I was planning my Florida beach wedding from Canada and Sam was always just an email away. He tailored our vows to exactly what we wanted. He was also very affordable. I highly recommend Sam!

    Excellence in all categories!!

    Sam was exceptional. He came recommended by another notary for our end of October wedding and I can tell you without a doubt, that I am eternally grateful the universe gave us Sam. Professional, empathetic, thoughtful and punctual! He can work with what your planning or give you a great material to work with like he did with me and my wife. I cannot even begin to describe how good this person is at what he does. If you are looking for someone to be your officiant this is the person to do it, through and through.

    We hired Sam to officiate our wedding. He was absolutely wonderful to work with! He was very professional and even with a few bumps in the road (our wedding started very late), he took everything in stride and organized a beautiful ceremony for us. Would recommend to anyone 100%!

    Terrific!!

    Sam was exactly what we were looking for! Due to COVID, we couldn't have a big event so rather than hurt anyone's feelings, we had just the two of us and Sam as officiant and his fiance Brandy to take pictures. We did very little planning and were very broad in what we were looking for as far as ceremony details. Sam helped us choose a spot with a view at Ft. Island Beach, and performed a ceremony that was perfect for us. Brandy took great pictures and sent them to us promptly. I highly recommend Sam for his attentiveness, friendliness, and helpfulness!!

    I recommended Sam to be the officiate for our daughter's wedding because I have the privilege of working with Sam side by side. I witness first hand the meticulous attention to detail, and professionalism he displays on the job. I knew that character would carry over into our daughter's important day.
    Sam was calm, well spoken, and kind. He assisted with issues that were not even in his realm of officiate, which took pressure off the bride and groom. He truly cares about the meaning of the vows and the importance of the ceremony. I would highly recommend Sam!!!
    P.S. I've got another daughter to marry off- she loved Sam!!!! Sooooo.....

    Best officiant we could have asked for

    Sam was wonderful as the officiant for our marriage. He is the nicest man you could ever meet. He was very responsive to questions prior to the event, and even met with us personally a few weeks before to discuss the schedule and speech. I highly, highly recommend him and his services.

    We were so impressed with Sam the Notary! Sam met us in Gainesville to create a customized ceremony with us and he truly brought our vision to life. We were especially grateful to receive a printed copy of our marriage ceremony. This is something we will read and re-read and treasure for years to come. Thank you Sam!

    We organised our Florida wedding remotely from Africa which made things very complicated! The hotel we were staying at suggested some officiants but they were retired or unavailable. I found Sam on Weddingwire and he was wonderful! Very prompt, professional, client-oriented and pleasant. The wedding was over the holiday season but that was no problem. Sam's officiation was sincere, straightforward and meaningful - just perfect - he also had examples of vows for our secular wedding which we used almost unchanged. His attitude was very good. His daughter also took some wedding pictures, a great "add-on". We have no hesitation in recommending.

    My wife and I were extremely pleased with Sam's professionalism and kindness. He was very flexible and helpful towards making our day exactly what we wanted. Being an out of state couple he not only helped us obtain the wedding license, he took care of all the legal paperwork so that when we returned home, everything was mailed to us at our convenience. Overall, I would recommend Sam's services to any couple looking for a top notch officiant.

    Fantastic experience

    I don’t have a single complaint and would recommend Sam to anybody having a destination wedding. We came from indiana to crystal river florida, he was accommodating, very kind and helped our day go as smoothly as possible.

    Sam is wonderful. He clearly listened to what we wanted our ceremony to represent, and he delivered that. He is well spoken, professional, and a pleasure to work with. It is obvious that he knows what he is doing, and while he was never pushy about ideas or changes, the suggestion he did give us were really great additions to our ceremony. - Thanks Sam!

    Sam was so professional in every aspect of our wedding. He was very easy to get ahold of and never made me feel like I was asking too many questions...even though I probably was. LOL. He was open to our suggestions, including having a family member that couldn't attend the ceremony, participate via cell phone. He even introduced her so our guests would know what was going on. He knows how to make people feel at ease, which was so important for us. Thank you Sam!!

    Words cannot begin to describe how wonderful our wedding was! We originally planned on something simple (due to the fact that I am in nursing school full time and my fiancé at the time was on active duty military orders). I happened to be lucky enough to find Mr. Sam, and from the moment we started piecing together a simple/backyard wedding, he was beyond patient and accommodating! I would (and will!) highly recommend this service and wedding officiant to everyone I know, as he truly made our day special and allowed us to get married on a holiday. We were married on Christmas eve, and he was kind enough to agree without hesitation, which we will forever be grateful for! I only wish their were more stars to rate him higher! :)

    Easy to work with, and professional. Would recommend to anyone.

    Sam was great as out officiant. With how busy we were, we couldn't meet with Me. Graham in person, but working through texts or calls, we were able to get everything to go off without a hitch. I would recommend Sam to anyone who is looking for an officiant.

    Sam was great!! Very professional, prompt, and helpful. The first day we met with him, we requested that he write our vows. He asked us a few questions and the next day sent the vows for our approval. They were perfect!! His responses to our questions were prompt and very helpful. I would wholeheartedly recommend him!

    Absolutely amazing

    MR. Samuel was absolutely an amazing gentleman to have as the officiant of Nina and I’s wedding on the Siesta Key Beach. He arrived before the ceremony, and had beautiful words for Nina and I to share with each other during our vows. There are no amount of stars this gentleman can receive. He went above and beyond for us! I highly highly highly recommended for any all couples. My wife and I eloped and he was the cherry on top of our ceremony! Thank you so much Sam for being apart of our beautiful journey as one!!!

    Where do I begin? There are so many positive things I can say about Sam that I really don't know where to begin!!!! We didn't meet until minutes before our wedding and he got it PERFECT!!! My husband and I wanted to be pronounced husband/wife at 11:11 a.m. because this is a special time for us. Sam and his family practiced our vows over and over timing it to make sure it happened!!!! He made our dream come true and made our wedding PERFECT!!!! Sam was quick to respond to messages/calls. He was also so caring! Our daughter had some severe medical issues several weeks before the wedding and Sam went above and beyond to stay in touch with us just to check on her. If you want an AWESOME officiant who is willing to give your wedding that personal touch, then Sam is your man!!!!

    Sam is 10 stars! Our wedding was led by his grace. He will help you to not flounder down the aisle. He is so flexible with whatever you may want to do. We picked him out of a lineup of officiants due to his pictures showing him in a scuba outfit and as a monk in a medieval wedding. There is a quality to Sam that words cannot convey. He is a good human being with a deep soul. Our wedding would not have been the great day it was without Sam.

    Better late than NEVER!

    Sam was awesome! He worked with my wife & I every step of the way. Sam knows exactly how to put a smile on your face, as for every word he read had me thinking "yup that's us!" He even gave us an idea for the ceremony with something I've never seen/heard of before. The sand ceremony is still something our family & friends talk about, Thank You! It was a blessing having Sam be the one to say those words "I now pronounce you husband & wife". Thank You for everything, your services were OUTSTANDING!

    Sam made our wedding day perfect!!!! I got married in February...it was a very simple country style wedding. I was so stressed about the flowers, food, dress, and guest list that I really didn't think much about vows or the way we would have the wedding party walk down the isle. That's where Sam came in and played an enormous role. During rehearsal, He immediately got everyone on the same page...from the flower girls to the bride (myself) and the groom. We all knew when to walk with the music and where to stand thanks to him. I wanted a very simple to the point type ceremony and that exactly what he delivered for us. I could not have asked for a better ceremony, especially in the Florida heat. I received countless compliments from friends and family about the ceremony!! I couldn't have asked for a better officiant!!! He made my wedding dreams a reality and we could never thank him enough! I highly recommend him to everyone that's starting to plan a wedding! You will not be disappointed!

    Best officiant!

    Sam was truly the perfect officiant for our wedding! He was recommended to us from a friend of ours, and I cannot imagine having anyone else! He was very professional during the whole process and very knowledgable, having officiated many weddings. Thank you so much for being apart of our big day!!

    Extremely accommodating and professional. Sam provided everything we requested and needed to make our day special. Even though it was a private ceremony, Sam arrived showing professionalism! Documents ready...professional dress... and went above and beyond our expectations. Highly recommend his services.

    Being that this was the second marriage for me and my husband, we decided to elope! Within a week, we had our license and luckily found Sam:) Sam was so quick on responses, and within three days we were exchanging our vows on a beach with the Gulf in the background! He made things so easy, and was wonderful to work with. I would highly recommend Sam to anyone wanting to get married, big wedding or small.

    My fiancé and I decided last minute to get married (that’s just the type of people we are). We’re from NJ and wanted to get married in my parent’s backyard in Florida. Sam was professional and accommodating, from the vows to his availability. He was also very understanding when we had to change the date of the wedding to due to storms and delays in NJ. I was very happy overall with Sam’s professionalism and dedication to our wedding.

    Additionally, we hired his daughter Summer for photos and she did an excellent job. She was very warm, friendly, and the photos came out fantastic. I would highly recommend her as well!

    We found Sam solely from searching the internet and had no idea what we were getting! However, after meeting him, we were very happy and confident we had made the right choice. Sam was absolutely wonderful to work with, very professional, yet personal, and we were so pleased to have him officiate our ceremony. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

    Sam is a perfect choice to be your officiant! He has lots of experience and a great look for your wedding pictures. He was very responsive, and arrived early. He even offered a set of proposed vows and ceremony transcript ahead of time that we could review and make changes if we wanted. However, we really liked what he had proposed and didn't change anything. He is full of surprises and suggested we partake in a sand ceremony, which is a beautiful upgrade and logistically sound for an outdoor wedding, in lieu of a candle ceremony. (You can purchase the sand ceremony materials separately on Amazon, or at Michael's craft store if you are out of time.) He was available hours after the fact to take my call for a question. My new wife and I were very happy with Sam's presentation and kind manner. We would definitely recommend him to anyone getting married!

    5 star all the way...Sam was great! He officiated our simple wedding cermony with very short notice. He was proffessional, personable and very timely. An extra plus was that his daughter, Brittany, took pictures, which turned out to be great, as our camera malfunctioned!
    We strongly recommend Sam for all of your notary needs, and Brittany for her photography skills!

    I was the photographer at one of Sam's recent ceremonies. I have to say that Sam was very professional, well humored, and extremely helpful in making sure everyone involved had the best experience possible. It's too bad that I'm already married, because I would choose Sam for my ceremony in a heartbeat! Maybe for our 5 year renewal!

    We are thrilled to have found Sam to officiate our wedding. We had something a bit unorthodox in mind -- we surprised my parents with a small civil ceremony while we were all on a family vacation -- and before we contacted Sam my husband and I had been worried that we wouldn't be able to find the right person to work with us.

    Our first conversation with Sam put us completely at ease, and he was great to work with. He was encouraging and supportive (not to mention calm, responsive and professional), and drove more than an hour to our wedding location. We appreciated his sense of humor and loved his delivery of our offbeat ceremony. It really was all about what we envisioned and wanted for our special day, which is exactly how it should be.

    This was actually my Son's wedding that Sam officiated at. And he was Fabulous! My Son and new Daughter-in-Law were married at the Renaissance Festival. They wanted as many as were willing to dress in costumes of the period, and Sam was very willing to do this. He also assisted them in tailoring their vows to match their wedding theme. I was impressed with Sam from the first day we met. Sam drove over to where we live to meet with us. My Son and his then-fiance wanted to make sure they 'clicked' with the person that would marry them. And they did! We all did! Sam was very professional, but very kind and considerate in dealing with the Groom, the Bride, and everyone else! His assistant, his daughter, also took pictures during the ceremony, so this was a definite added plus!

    I highly recommend Sam to anyone looking for a officiant who will care about what YOU want. I can't thank him enough for making their, and my, day special!

    Made our day

    We decided to elope. Sam helped us plan the ceremony and helped us find a location. A few days prior to our big day, a hurricane hit the location. Sam helped us find a new place the night before our ceremony. It was a wonderful gazebo overlooking a pond with lily pads. We couldn't ask for a better backdrop.

    My husband and I wanted a very simple small service at the river down the street from our home. We also wanted to get married on Easter Sunday which also happened to be April Fool's Day this year. We thought it would be impossible to accomplish this because of it being a holiday and because of the location. Amazingly, I came across Wedding Wire and found Sam's Notary and everything fell into place. Sam was very responsive to our emails, very flexible to our requests, and extremely accommodating Sam's fees were very reasonable and his service was exactly what we were looking for! Thank you Sam for making our day so special!! I can't thank you enough!

    Sam was a pleasure to have as our officiant! From the beginning, he was prompt and professional, and was great at preparing a perfect ceremony. We did have an in person consult prior to booking because I couldn't imagine leaving the first meeting to the day before the wedding! And Sam was perfectly ok with meeting my husband and I for the consult and coming to a place of our choosing. He was great, and our guests thought so too-- one of my friends who was at the wedding is even now planning to use his services for her upcoming wedding! I would highly recommend Sam's Notary for anyone in search of an officiant.

    Sam is fantastic! He really went above and beyond with his duties as our officiate. He went over our vows (several times, in my case) and was very encouraging. We had no idea what we were doing, but Sam managed to stay calm FOR us and walk us through the ceremony and paperwork. He was absolutely wonderful! :)

    All that any bride needs to know is that Sam Graham will go over and beyond to make sure you have a perfect wedding and cater to any situation that may arise. Our wedding hit a snag when the weather decided to take a turn for the worse..I was determined to be married outside on the beach no matter what. Mr. Graham was so calm and willing to accommodate anything we asked of him, including standing in the water to finish our ceremony. Mr. Graham personalized our vows, gave us a folder with our ceremony, and gave us memories for a lifetime. We honestly could not have been so calm about everything without him..He was great about keeping in communication with us the day before and of the wedding so that we truly had nothing to fear. Sam is very reasonably priced although no amount of money could have made us choose anyone else. We thank you Mr. Graham for your service to our country and we are honored that you were part of our amazing day. Kurt and Leesha Lund.

He went out of his way to include all three of our children in the ceremony which was very important to us. We were so glad that we had the pleasure to meet him and felt lucky to have him Officiant our Wedding. Thank you!

    Sam with Sam's Notary provides a beautiful service. He made my wedding so special! I am a very shy person but with Sam, it was like he was part of my family. He made me feel really comfortable. He is very affordable. He is definitely someone you want at your wedding. He makes your special day, YOUR special day! He makes sure everything is perfect...his clothes, your clothes, music, everything. If you want your wedding day to perfect...HIRE SAM with SAM'S NOTARY. THANK YOU SAM FOR EVERYTHING, YOUR WORDS WERE BEAUTIFUL AND I WAS TRULY HONORED TO HAVE YOU AT MY SMALL, INTIMATE WEDDING. I look forward to "working" with you again for my LARGE WEDDING, with ALL MY FAMILY!

    It is with my sincere honor to write Sam a stellar review. My now husband, Joel and I, had the fortunate experience of having Sam as out officiant for our wedding. Sam went above and beyond. He met with us via Skype, then met with my mother and I at a cafe. He eased our minds at the rehearsal and attended the rehearsal dinner. He also responded to my numerous emails. Additionally, Sam was calm and soft spoken during our beautiful ceremony. Our guests were impressed with him too, and offered numerous compliments about his service. I was fortunate enough to find Sam on Wedding Wire; he was flexible, kind, and seemed to truly care about about the importance of our ceremony. I highly recommend Sam. He was perfect for our special day! Thanks so much Sam!

    Delightful

    It was so easy to get in touch with Sam and he was very prompt with replies. He showed up a little early for the ceremony and was very friendly. He never made us feel rushed for anything and the words he used for our ceremony were absolutely precious. We loved receiving a copy of the vows as well as the keepsake marriage certificate. I would totally recommend him to anyone!

    Working with Sam was a complete pleasure!! I could not of asked for anything better on my big day! Also I must say even my photographer was greatly appreciated simply because Sam jumped out of the way in order for her to get a perfect shot of us kissing right after he said you may now kiss the bride! I would suggest Sam to anyone getting married or requiring his services! Thank you!!

    Working with Sam was a pleasure and we are very happy we chose him as our officiant for our beach wedding. Planning our wedding from out of country was easy as Sam quickly replied to emails and was available to meet in person when we came to Florida.
    Sam helped us with our vows and put together an amazing ceremony. He is very open and easy going and let us add and change things around to give the ceremony our personal touch. He also suggested to translate the ceremony and have someone read it in German since not all of our guests spoke English. How thoughtful! He even got in touch with one of my bridesmaids to go over the ceremony together and practiced to pronounce our German last names perfectly. He really went above and beyond our expectations!
    Sam's calming voice and personality combined with all his experience and great ideas helped make our ceremony perfect. We cannot thank him enough and highly recommend him if you want a truly personalized ceremony.

    Talk about going the extra mile. Sam literally took the plunge with us. He not only performed our ceremony on a boat deck, he then got in the water and married us again in the midst of manatees. He even went to the trouble of getting lessons so he would be comfortable in the water. And he took care of the paperwork and did a great job with our vows. About the only thing he didn't do was steer the boat. "Above and beyond" doesn't begin to describe what Sam did for our very special day. Recommend him? We'd patent him if we could.

    Comments:
    When my father walked up to Sam and told him that he thought it was a wonderful service we knew we had chosen well. He incorporated everything I asked for so perfectly. It rained, we had to be inside, it could have been awful. Instead it was PERFECT. I was impressed that he was hirable this way because so many other roaming notaries won't put themselves out there to be criticized. OH..and our photographer couldn't come and he just happened to bring one. MIRACLE!!

    Sam was amazing! He really took his time with us, and allowed us the time we needed to practice. He even went above to type up our vows and place them in his binder so I wouldn't have to walk down the aisle with them! Couldn't of picked a better officiant!

    Sam was so awesome to work with. He was very organized and professional and made us both feel at ease. I really enjoyed talking with him. We worked together to make the ceremony exactly what we wanted and he gave us a lovely copy of it for our scrapbook. We highly recommend him for your wedding!

    Sam was the best!!!! The day I sent the email requesting information he responded that night!! We met him the next week, got all the information and questions answered! Sam followed up within a day with the agreement emailed that needed to be signed and a lay out of the ceremony and vows!! I highly recommend Sam to anyone in the Dunnellon or surrounding areas! He helped to make sure the day ran smoothly and everything was in order! Thanks again for all your help and professionalism you showed Sam!

    We reached out to Sam to officiate our wedding from Canada, to be conducted in Florida, where I have spent countless summers growing up from childhood right up to this day. Correspondence back and forth was easy and his response time was immediate to answer all our questions. Sam put a lot of time into making sure our ceremony for the 2 of us was just the way we wanted it. His creative ideas to add to our ceremony were appreciated and incorporated. Sam provided the utmost professionalism during our ceremony, and we appreciated his humor. Sam took care of all paperwork for us, and even offered to take pictures for us. It felt like we knew him. Thank you to Sam and his team for ensuring our ceremony was unforgettable!

    I was planning a small outdoor family wedding and found Sam's Notary online while looking for an officiant. Sam did a great job, was very responsive and wanted to make sure we got what we were looking for. At the event, he was on time, well dressed, spoke clearly and generally did a great job. Very pleased and just what we wanted! Thanks Sam.

    Halloween Elopement could not have gone better!!

    We contacted Sam on a whim because we wanted to elope on Halloween. We didn't give him a ton of notice and luckily he was available because we wouldn't have wanted anyone else. He picked out the perfect place for us to elope, had wonderful vows written that somehow suited us perfectly and was an all around great choice. He was very accommodating, gave us a steal since we eloped and communication was top notch. We absolutely recommend him to anyone! Thanks again Sam!!!

    Sam was super delightful to work with! He was easy to talk to, straight to the point and was there when we needed him even with our last minute changes due to the rain! He is reliable and helps you with your vows when you need it and definitely will be the BEST value you can find out there! :) Thanks again Sam!

    Sam was kind, thoughtful and sincere! Would definitely recommend.

    Sam was very responsive. We met up to discuss how we would want the ceremony to look and he asked us questions to get to know us as a couple. Sam was very kind and we loved his personality! He made us very comfortable and we could tell it was a good fit. He was also our best friend’s officiant and made his print on them as well. His words during our ceremony were very meaningful and he even printed them for us to keep. Would definitely recommend!

    We got Sam's name from The Post Card Inn. He replied to our E mail within hours & arranged everything including our vows which we wrote ourselves. Sam met us the evening before & took the time to ensure our ceremony would be as we planned. He arrived at 9Am for our beach wedding & took care of everything in a most profession manner. I would not hesitate to recommend his services to anyone.

    Sam did an awesome job at our wedding. He really touched base on what we wanted for our ceremony- short but sweet. He included our sand ceremony and the words he said were really beautiful. Really nice guy- very understanding! I highly recommend Sam. Thanks Sam for all of your hard work!

    I can tell you, living a few hours away from our wedding venue and firing our first officiant.... I was a little skeptical of hiring someone and not meeting them until our rehersal dinner. Well - we couldn't have been MORE Pleased with Sam! WOW! He made our day so special. I sent Sam what my husband and I have come up with for the ceremond and Sam took it and made it INCREDIBLE, absolutely INCREDIBLE. We wanted my father to be a part of the ceremony, so Sam suggested we have my dad read a part of the ceremony - so we picked out the part. I am so thankful Sam thought of that! Sam was super friendly and very professional - he eased all the nerves and made us feel so comfortable! We also received our vows and entire ceremony printed out along with a Stamped, notarized certificate from Sam to hang up! So nice! Sam, you were amazing! Hope you enjoyed it!

    Thank you Again! Pie & Todd Backhaus

    Sam was awesome! We contacted him 10 days before our wedding, he met us the next day to discuss the details. He was prompt, professional.

    After looking for someone to officiate our wedding, I always came back to him. He may have been a little more expensive, but you get what you pay for. He gave us keepsakes, helped with ideas. He was professional (trust me, everyone in our area is not.) Sam answered calls, emails and texts right away.

    Me and my new husband will remember this day forever and we're so glad Sam was there for us!

    We were looking forward to working with Samuel but received a call from him the day before our wedding that he had to cancel due to other work obligations. He did have someone to take his place, which we were thankful for, but it wasn't who we were expecting. We understand that things come up, but he was booked well in advance and at our meeting he assured us "nothing like that ever happens" which is not how his replacement made it seem. Working with him up until that point was great, he was very reasonably priced and responded to all emails quickly. He was willing to work with what we wanted for a script.
