    Highly recommend, Terry!

    Terry made our wedding ceremony truly unforgettable! His warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail helped make our day so special. He was very attentive throughout our calls leading up to the wedding day, and made sure to add all the little details we talked previously during our ceremony. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant to guide us through such an important moment in our lives. Highly recommend! (Might I add, he's also a TV celebrity!)

    Terry helped make our dream wedding come true!

    Terry created an absolutely perfect ceremony for me and my husband. We wanted a secular, classic, and timeless ceremony that shared our story and allowed us to bare our souls to our friends and family. He was timely, kind, professional, and prepared. We adored having Terry marry us!!

    Our Wonderful Wedding Officiant

    Our Scottsdale wedding back in March wouldn't have been complete without the wonderful Terry Brady. If you're looking for a wedding officiant who is warm, caring, and makes your ceremony truly personal, then Terry is your man!

    From the very first meeting, Terry made us feel comfortable and at ease. He wasn't just there to perform a ceremony; he genuinely took the time to get to know us as a couple. He asked thoughtful questions about our lives, our love story, and our vision for the ceremony. It was clear that he cared about making our day special and it meant so much to us.

    Terry's personable nature and warmth really shone through the ceremony itself. He created a beautiful balance of heartfelt moments and lighthearted humor that perfectly reflected my husband, Tom and I. Our guests constantly commented on how personal and toughing the ceremony was, and we owe that all to his incredible skills.

    We truly believe that Terry's guidance and care made our wedding ceremony absolutely perfect. it wouldn't have been the same without him, and we are so grateful to have found him. If you're looking for an officiant who will go the extra mile to make your ceremony meaningful and memorable, look no further than Terry Brady!

    Personalized and Perfect

    We found Terry through Pop The Knot and he was amazing for our special day - a true professional. Although not necessary, he met with us to get to know us and personalize the ceremony. I feel so grateful that we found Terry and he was the officiant we chose!

    Wonderful Experience!

    Terrance Brady was our amazing officiant at our golf club wedding in July 2023. When we first spoke with Terrance on the phone while trying to find an officiant, he immediately made us feel special. Terrance showed us how much he loves doing what he gets to do, which really showed in the communication we had with him leading up to our big day and at the actual ceremony. We highly recommend Terrance as your officiant!

    Terry was truly amazing! He worked with us in including special moments into our ceremony, such as grandparents celebrating their 60th anniversary the day following our wedding! We feel lucky to have found such a great person to officiate our wedding!

    Great experience!!

    Terry was amazing as our officiant. He was fully prepared and ran over everything with us so we would be comfortable. He also took time getting to know us on a personal level and incorporated that into the ceremony. He was super accommodating and was so great to work with. Highly recommend!

    Amazing, worry-free, perfect

    Terry was amazing. Right off the bat he was willing to do a non-religious ceremony for us. He was willing to call us and went through the entire ceremony word for word.
    He gave us opportunities to make the ceremony "our own" and include readings, or blessings that we wanted. He met with us on his own time to get to know us and learn about us.
    He truly was an amazing part of our day and it would not be the same without him.
    We both would recommend Terry 10/10!

    Genuine Kindness - that is Terry!

    Terrance made our special day much more special. He exudes a genuine kindness, Terry spoke with Emily and I on the phone, and we had corresponded through emails several times. Despite only communicating a handful of times, it was as though we had known Terry for years, like it was a close trusted friend officiating our wedding.

    Simple, Sincere and Stressfree

    Terry is a an amazing gem! I decided to have a very small ceremony with just my spouse and his parents. I found Terry online and he was so sincere, caring and friendly via email, that I knew our ceremony would be fun yet meaningful. We chose to wed at a gazebo at a local park, and I just sent the map link and the time to meet us. I texted him when we arrived and he was prompt and professional.
    Terry is truly wonderful and makes the event special no matter where the setting. I highly recommend him if you are looking for an officiant who will work to make your ceremony as perfect as can be. We plan to renew our vows next year at our anniversary/wedding reception, and I will ask him to join us again!

    Cannot say enough good things about Terry!

    Terry was recommended to us last minute after our original officiant backed out. He stepped right in and was so friendly and welcoming. He made the ceremony portion of the planning an absolute breeze! Our guests could not stop talking about him all night. 5/5 recommend!

    Terry is the BEST!

    Our experience with Terry was nothing short of excellent. From day one, Terry was attentive, genuine, and it was clear that he truly valued connecting with us and making sure our vows fit us as a couple. We are so grateful and lucky to have had him as part of our big day. Terry is a professional through and through and you cannot go wrong with having him as an officiant. We appreciate you so much, Terry!

    Best Officiant Ever!

    We are so happy we found Terry to marry us! He made us feel so comfortable FaceTimeing and meeting up in person before the wedding. Arrived early to the ceremony & did a wonderful job! Definitely would recommend him to anyone!

    Look no further...Terry is your guy!

    My fiancé and I were on the fence if we wanted to hire a professional officiant or ask a friend to perform our wedding ceremony. We could not be happier that we decided to have Terry perform our ceremony. Terry was the most helpful piece to our ceremony. He walked us through step by step and helped us answer silly questions like "Do we say my full name during the ceremony or my nickname that everyone calls me".

    I would 100% suggest meeting with Terry before your ceremony. This was the most comforting meeting that we had before our big day. We knew exactly what to expect and who to expect. I could not have imagined having someone marry us who we met 5 minutes before the ceremony.

    I can not recommend Terry enough and am so glad that he is the person who is in our ceremony pictures that we will cherish forever.

    Made our wedding perfect

    We are so happy that Rev. Terry Brady was our officiant. We wanted something heartfelt for our super small ceremony that really captured who we are. Rev. Terry Brady found a perfect balance of humor and seriousness to match our personalities. He met with us in a video chat several weeks before the wedding to walk us through a mock ceremony and to get to know us better. He incorporated what he learned in our meetings and the short questionnaire he asked us to complete. He listened to all our questions and concerns. Ultimately, our wedding ceremony was exactly what we wanted because Rev. Terry Brady used his experience and professionalism combined with his kind heart to create it while putting us both at ease with the process. He was great!

    Lives up to the reputation!

    I had a wonderful time photographing one of the ceremonies that Terry put on. He was prompt, professional, and got along great with each guest. Most importantly, he was solely focused on the couple. Three cheers for Terry!

    What an amazing guy!

    Terrance is so sweet and provided my husband and I with a beautiful ceremony. He worked with us and met with us a few times to go over everything we needed for the ceremony. Very sweet and helpful man. What a blessing it was to work with him. So thankful we met him and would highly recommend for anyone looking to get married to use him for a beautiful and meaningful ceremony.

    Couldn’t have been more thrilled

    Terry was absolutely marvelous!!! We picked him through our pop-up wedding website, Pop the Knot, and we couldn’t have been happier! We spoke to Terry over the phone, gave him a few specifics about us and we were blown away by his heartfelt, sincere ceremony! He was humorous, kind, and spoke such amazing words…all of our guests commented on how wonderful the service was! Highly highly recommend!

    Terry is terrific!

    We found Terry online and hired him based on his quality reviews. Once we spoke to Terry on the phone he was a pleasure to talk to and guided us easily into a simple plan for our wedding. He invited us to fill out a short questionnaire about our history together and from our response Terry customized a very thoughtful and sincere ceremony. Terry's preparation, warmth, and sincerity delivered to us everything we could want for our special day.

    Absolutely Amazing

    To give some back story my wedding was supposed to be May 2nd of 2020 and as I’m sure your thinking covid 19. Yes we had to reschedule our wedding and unfortunately Terry wasn’t going to be in Arizona for the new wedding date. However I will tell you this! We absolutely loved Terry and were so bummed to hear he wasn’t going to be in town. He made the process feel very comfortable and got to know us very well. He made both my fiancé and I very comfortable and had made it very easy. If your looking for someone this is your guy! Terry Brady is your guy! Thank you Terry for all your help!

    Perfect for our wedding

    We knew we wanted to hire a professional for our wedding ceremony. When we met with Terry we knew he was perfect for the job! The mock ceremony he presented at our first meeting demonstrated the seriousness of the commitment of marriage, but also had a few light hearted moments/ jokes. Terry was flexible with what we wanted the script to include and very responsive to emails. Our guests also commented on how great the ceremony was!

    Such a wonderful wedding ceremony!

    We had Terry officiate our July 2019 wedding. We met with him a couple of times and knew right away that we wanted him to be a part of our big day. Our first meeting consisted of an actual "mock ceremony" which was extremely helpful to hear how it could sound at our wedding. We also were able to customize and add whatever we liked and Terry was very flexible. He was personable and genuinely cared about our relationship and marriage. We received many compliments from attendees and family members about our ceremony and Terry and we couldn't agree more with them. It was a great day and we are lucky that we found such a wonderful officiant!

    Officiant review

    Terry was a pleasure to work with and he did a great job personalizing our ceremony to be exactly what we wanted. He suggested a wine box which was a nice, unique touch to ceremony and a tradition we plan to continue through the years. We received many compliments from our guests on how nice the ceremony was and we couldn’t have been happier with our officiant choice.

    T. Brady for the win!

    Terry did an amazing job with our wedding! He took the time to learn more about us, and it really showed in the personal touches he added to the ceremony! He brought a great sense of humor along with some heartfelt moments, and our guests mentioned several times that it seemed like he had known us for years! We highly recommend Terry to and Patriots fans, or people who love a personal touch to their ceremony!

    Terrance is Amazing!

    Terrance was an amazing officiant, he made sure to respond to our emails within 24 hours (which we found valuable in the wedding planning process), was timely at our rehearsal and the day of our wedding. He took the time to know us and our story and incorporated it into our ceremony, making it even more special. Terrance did an amazing job, he truly loves what he does and it shows!!

    Terry is just amazing!

    Terry provided such an amazing ceremony for us that we just heard tears and sniffles in the background when we were standing up to get married. From the moment we met to the big day, Terry was there constantly ready to answer any of our questions and help us along the way. I couldn't have asked for a better officiant! Highly, highly recommend him to anyone that is getting married!

    Terry was our wedding officiant and he was perfect! We loved working with him- he did a great job of getting to know us so that our ceremony felt very personal. We received so many compliments from family and friends about him and how wonderful he was. Highly recommend!!

    Terry is ABSOLUTELY wonderful! There probably aren’t enough words to describe this kind-hearted and genuine man. He truly loves what he does and it shows in his ceremony. He speaks from his heart. Terry makes an effort to really get to know you and wants to help make your day perfect. For us personally, he completely bent over backwards to perform our service and for that we are so grateful to him. Thank you simply is not enough! Everything was perfect and we couldn’t have asked for a better officiant. Wishing you many future successes, Mr. Brady!

    We appreciated how Terry took the time to get to know us as a couple and understand our story. He took our wishes, likes/dislikes, into consideration when planning the ceremony, and it was most definitely conveyed to all of our guests. Terry provides a sense of comfort while officiating; as if he is a friend you have known your whole life. He supports each individual couple and respects every unique journey that has led to the union of marriage. Thank you, Terry! We will never forget our ceremony!

    Terry created the perfect ceremony for us, combining what we wanted with what would suit our families and created a lasting and touching speech that has stuck with us. Terry knew Ryan from his childhood as family friends and quickly and easily got to know his partner, Emily. Terry worked with us long distance to learn about our relationship. Terry says meaningful things about the power of lifelong love and how families and friends play a part of your marriage. We have since memorialized his words in a wedding scrapbook so we can look back over the years and be reminded of the exact moment our wedding took place. Thank you Terry!

    Our experience with Terry was phenomenal! He wrote the perfect ceremony including thoughtful stories and personal anecdotes that we had shared during our meetings with him. He made my husband and I feel so comfortable and we truly enjoyed getting to know him. Our family had nothing but positive things to say as well and he truly made our day magical! And of course, as a Pats fan, I will always be so thankful that T-Brady married us!

    Terry did an amazing job officiating our wedding! We found him last minute, and yet he put us at ease as if the wedding was months away. Since we live in Tucson and were getting married in Phoenix, we had to do everything via phone. He took the time to get to know us in the little amount of time we had, and put together a wonderful script of what to say, incorporating little pieces of how we met, how we fell in love, etc. We are so lucky we found him. Thank you so much Terry for doing such a beautiful job on our best day ever!

    My husband and I got married on November 18th, 2017. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant/person to marry us. When we met Terry we knew he was going to be the perfect fit to officiate our wedding. He was always available by phone and email to answer all of our questions. We got so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful he made our ceremony. He took the time to make sure it was everything we wanted and fit both of our personalities. I could continue on and on how great Terry was!! He was a huge part of why are day was so special and perfect. Thank you again Terry!

    We are thrilled to recommend Terry Brady. Terry officiated our destination wedding and took the time to get to know us as much as possible, given the distance between us. He visited with us by phone multiple times and also asked us several questions in writing. He shared several ideas for the ceremony itself and customized readings which made it feel very personal. We were able to also meet with Terry before the wedding and established an even greater rapport. At the wedding, Terry was wonderful with our guests and couldn't have been more friendly and professional. We couldn't be happier.

    Terry was the most accommodating vendor we worked with in our wedding! We had a chance to get to know each other and learn more about him, he was patient with us when we discussed parts of the ceremony, he was curious to know about the venue for the wedding, and more. Terry was so great, he even helped us think through pieces of the ceremony we hadn't even thought about! Plus, we got compliments from our guests on how wonderful the ceremony was, even some of the personal details that some of guests didn't know about, how we met, etc... so awesome!!!! Highly recommend Terry, whether it's for a big or small wedding, casual or formal, etc... Congratulations!

    We found Terry after reading various online reviews for officiants in the Chicagoland area. After our initial meeting, we knew Terry would be the perfect person to marry us! He was extremely helpful throughout the entire process and infused his humor throughout. We received many compliments about Terry after the ceremony. He was well spoken, had great timing, and made the ceremony very special for us. He has various wording examples if you want a religious or non-religious ceremony and can customize anything to your needs. He provided the perfect blend for us and added our personal story into the ceremony. Don’t look anywhere else!

    Mr. Brady was accommodating, gracious, and nothing short of perfect. I had met with another Officiant, but he got booked up. Good thing for my wife and I, because I found Mr. Brady and I couldn't have asked for a better person to officiate our wedding. Moreover, I had A LOT of family and friends at the wedding asking me where I found Mr. Brady and they all gave him great praises and had only great things to say about him. Mr. Brady made us feel comfortable, made us (including guest at the wedding) laughing, and gave us an all around great experience. If you're looking for the perfect officiant for your wedding, Mr. Brady is your man!

    We would have given him more stars if they had been available! Terry has the ability to make any wedding just the way you want it! We asked him if he would be willing to officiate our non-traditional ceremony on April Fool's Day and he more than met the mark in his tuxedo t-shirt and shorts!
    As light hearted as our event was, he never lost sight of importance of the sacred event even mentioning family members in heaven during the ceremony. He made sure we were comfortable with the vows and let us customize as we saw fit.
    We strongly encourage you to contact Terry!

    Thank you so much to Terry for providing a beautiful service on our wedding day! It was very heartfelt and also kept our guests entertained. Terry is very devoted to what he does and took time to get to know us before the ceremony. **An added bonus was that he doesn't overcharge like many other officiants we considered. I would recommend him to anyone, it was a pleasure working with him :)

    If you don't pick Terry, you're crazy!! He could not have my our day MORE PREFECT!! He has a passion for what he does and it really shows, especially during the ceremony!! He became our friends, he took the time out of his busy schedule to really get to know up and meet with us twice before the wedding, plus the reception and then the wedding!! He WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure everything was perfect and smooth. He made the ceremony fun and light, interacted with the audience and made us laugh! He did exactly what we wanted and more, I don't plan on ever getting married again haha but if we renew our vows we will definitely be calling Terry! WE LOVE HIM!!!

    Everything was perfect with Terry. He gave a very lovely non-denominational service (I'm Jewish and my wife is Methodist). It was our second marriage with just our family there. He hit all the right notes and balanced the service well between reverence and friendly informality. I would recommend him wholeheartedly.

    I have to say Terry went beyond on expectations and provided the most meaningful, personal, and heartfelt ceremony I could ask for. Our guests were even blown away and commented how it was the best delivered service they've been to. I would personally recommend Terry at the first opportunity given. He came through for us last minute and he went above and beyond making the most important day of my life that much more special. He took the time to get to know us personally and incorporated that into a beautiful ceremony. Terry is absolutely second to none!!!!!!

    Terry officiated my wedding this past May and my fiancé and I couldn't be happier with our decision. Terry prepared a beautiful service for us that had us and our guests smiling the entire time. Some of our family was a little uncertain about the idea of not getting married in a church, but Terry added the right amount of "religious" touches to the ceremony to make them feel comfortable with our decision.

    We would definitely recommend Terry!! He was kind, funny, responsive and went out of his way to make sure everything turned out perfectly for our special day.

    Terry was amazing. He was very helpful, professional, flexible and comfortable to work with. He got to know us on short notice, promised us that he would deliver a beautiful ceremony, and he did just that. He endured the hot AZ sun with us and it didnt phase him. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant to tell our story and celebrate with us. Thanks again Terry! It was perfect.

The ceremony was very nice, short the way we wanted it, and we were overall very pleased. We are so glad we found him to perform our wedding ceremony. :) I would highly recommend him. Thanks Terry.

    My wife and I were married in September 2015. About a week out from the wedding, we learned our initial reverend had double-booked the day and we were concerned he would be able to make it through downtown Chicago traffic in time to get to our ceremony. With everything going on around the wedding, finding a new reverend was a stress we weren't anticipating.

    Terry saved the day.

    From our first phone conversation, Terry made it a smooth process. He was in town and available, and after agreeing to do the wedding he got us an outline for our ceremony that night. He was super open to our desires for the ceremony, and he immediately edited his initial outline to fit our notes. He also was flexible enough to meet with us a couple days before the ceremony on short notice.

    Terry's service was fantastic. During cocktail hour and the reception, we got so many comments about how great the ceremony was and questions about how long we had known Terry. The compliments continued in the days and weeks after the wedding.

    We could not have been more happy and more fortunate to have found and worked with Terry. He turned a bad situation into a highlight of the wedding, and he could not come more highly recommended.

    Thanks so much, Terry!

    Terry was an excellent Officiant. My husband and I heard so many compliments about how beautifully he spoke and such a sweet demeanor. Terry got to know the two of us and asked many questions so he can put a personal touch to the ceremony . He answered all of our questions and answered truthfully and I took his advice on whst to and what not to do. He was in touch with me each week making sure everything was ok and if I wanted to make any changes to anything. If I could give Terry 10 stars I would. My husband and I couldnt ask for a better officiant than Terry!!

    Mr. Terry Brady did an amazing job as our wedding officiant! He took time to get to know my husband and me and incorporated unique stories about us into the ceremony. He was also able to incorporate some humor and heart touching moments. He was always on time for our meetings and responded to us whenever we had questions. We highly recommend Terry!

    We were very pleased with Terry's wedding ceremony services. Even our guests commented how organized and well prepared he was. After our first meeting, we found Terry to be very professional, with a great sense of humor, and a deep interest in getting to know us. He made us feel very comfortable and at ease during and after the ceremony. I would highly recommend Terry's services to any of my friends.

    Terry was a fantastic officiant! Several of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed his ceremony and that is was significantly better than most wedding ceremonies.

    We were also very happy with how responsive, organized, and timely Terry was throughout the process. He got to know us and that made all the difference on the day of the wedding.

    We would highly recommend Terry for anyone who is looking for an officiant who will go above and beyond.

    Terry is truly one of a kind. He has such an incredible talent and really knows how to create a ceremony truly personalized to the couple.I love that he really spends the time to get to know you and find out what is important to you. He's interested in your story and does a beautiful job at incorporating that into your ceremony. Our ceremony was more than I could ask for because of him. He really let both of us feel at ease during the planning and wedding day. I received so many compliments from our guests after our ceremony and had a few engaged friends that asked for his information so they could use him as their officiant. I would highly recommend Terry to every couple getting married, we were very lucky to have him.

    Terry was very interested in providing a wedding ceremony centered on what we wanted. He incorporated our story, our comments, and his flair. We have received great comments from our family and friends about Terry's proceedings.

    Terry is so kind, friendly and easy to work with. A all-around wonderful person with a heart of gold. He takes the time to truly get to know his couple and make their ceremony personal and heartfelt. It took me forever to find a ritual I liked, but he continued to work with me, and be patient, with my specific demands. He is also respectful of the fact that I did not want our ceremony to be heavily religious, but more spiritual in nature and never tried to push anything on us that we were not comfortable with. I would HIGHLY recommend Terry to any and every couple.

    My wife and I are finding it difficult to say anything unique about Terry that already hasn’t been said in these deservedly glowing reviews, so we’ll try to add something a little more detailed: Terry is the consummate professional in every manner. He was always prompt and prepared for meetings, his vast knowledge and experience helped eliminate many problems, he was quick to answer questions, his voice and demeanor enhanced the importance of the event, was respectful of our vision, added so many different ideas when asked, and conducted one of the most meaningful wedding ceremonies that our friends and family can remember. He is bright, humorous, sincere, spiritual, and a genuinely good man. One of his best attributes is his profound curiosity about people, which only enhances and deepens the quality of his service.

I'd like to say we have become friends :)

    Terry did an outstanding job officiating our wedding ceremony! He had a wonderful voice that kept our guests attention to each and every word spoke. We wanted a personal ceremony with a combination of tradition and humor and he delivered exactly that. If you want a memorable ceremony and live near the area, I highly encourage you to work with Terry.

    We cannot say enough great things about working with Terry for our wedding. We knew after our first meeting with him that he was the one to officiate our ceremony. He was funny, genuine and made us instantly feel comfortable with him. We trusted him completely in making our wedding amazing and that's exactly what he did. Our guests gave us so many compliments on our ceremony and thought it was one of the best they had seen! So THANK YOU Terry for truly making our wedding amazing and so so special!

    Terry was absolutely wonderful! The entire process, from deciding to work with each other to the wedding day was so easy. Everyone at our wedding came up to me throughout the night and said how wonderful the ceremony was . It was exactly what Mike and I pictured our ceremony to be. It was light hearted, moving, told a story and you would think terry knew us our entire lives. I highly would recommend Terry.

    Terry Brady was absolutely fantastic for our wedding. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful ceremony thanks to Terry. He really commands the crowd, and everyone just LOVED our ceremony and kept commenting on how nice it was. I had a few people say, "normally nobody really goes to a wedding for a ceremony, but for your wedding, the ceremony was just as joyful and fun as the drinking and dancing at the reception!" Also, Terry meet with us 3 times and made sure that our ceremony was just perfect. His attention to details of your love story is outstanding, and he really perfectly conveyed our love story and our love for each other. I highly recommend Terry for your event!

    Terry did a fantastic job officiating our wedding! We could not have been happier with our wedding ceremony and we received many compliments. Terry really took the time to get to know us on a personal level and tailored our ceremony to reflect our personalities and wishes. Terry went above-and-beyond to ensure that we were pleased with our wedding ceremony. He will absolutely work with you so you know exactly how the ceremony will go. Terry is extremely professional but also allows for some humorous, yet appropriate, moments which we really appreciated. One of my favorite things about having Terry as our officiant was that we did not feel like we had a cliche, cookie-cutter ceremony. By our wedding day, we really felt like Terry was an old friend! We were nervous about selecting an officiant since he or she really makes or breaks your ceremony; however with Terry you cannot go wrong!

    Terry is phenomenal! From our first phone call, to our initial meeting(and 2 more face to face meetings), check in emails to our ceremony, he made our entire experience comfortable, informative, and exciting. Terry had an innate ability to listen to us and help us plan the most personal ceremony making our experience easy and fun! Terry is #1 in our book!

    From the moment we met Terry we instantly felt at ease. He’s so personable and kind, he really gets all aspects of a wedding and knows how to personalize.
    My husband and I had two face to face meetings with Terry prior to our wedding day. He took the time to get to know us and it really showed during the ceremony. There were tears, laughter and a lot of wonderful moments throughout the ceremony. We still have people asking us how we found Terry and if we knew him as a close family friend beforehand. He truly made an impression on us and every single guest in the room that day.

    If you’re looking for a warm, kind, funny wedding officiant, Terry Brady is your guy.

    Terry, thank you again for making our day so memorable. You allowed us to just focus on “us” and will forever be grateful to you for your contribution to our special day!

    Sincerely,
    Dana & Safar

    Terry did an amazing job as our officiant. It felt as if we have known him for years. He got to know us on a personal level, and that showed in his ceremony. He made the ceremony warm and personal. We have received so many compliments on his services and requests for his information. Thank you Terry for making our ceremony so special and starting our marriage off on such a positive note!

    I could not have been more happy with how my wedding ceremony went. Terry is wonderful! He is the first officiant we met with, and we knew right away that we didn't need to meet anyone else. To us, Terry felt like someone we had known forever. He made us both very comfortable, and we could tell that he is very confident and loves what he does.

    After meeting with Terry, he sent us a questionnaire to help him get to know us. He then took that info and incorporated it into the ceremony. After reading the first draft, there were a few things that I wanted to change. Terry had no problem doing that, within a few hours of letting him know I received a new draft of the ceremony. At the last minute we decided we wanted to add a quote from a TV show that we both love, Terry was able to incorporate that into the ceremony flawlessly.

    We have had many compliments on our wedding ceremony, and on Terry in particular. To this day (almost 6 months later) I still hear from family members about how wonderful "that officiant" was. On the day of the wedding, and the night before at the rehearsal, I was so nervous and was having major anxiety (I am not good at being the center of attention), but the moment we started the rehearsal with Terry I immediately relaxed and felt comfortable and confident. I was finally able to have fun because I knew Terry would guide us in the right direction. I also need to add that Terry is so dedicated, he performed our ceremony while sick with the flu! And he was very cautious at our rehearsal to not shake hands with anyone or get too close in order to prevent any of the wedding party from getting sick. I am so grateful to Terry for making our wedding ceremony the perfect memory!

    Your wedding is one of the most special and important days of any relationship. Terry made that day even more than that. Terry brought an inspirational message into an amazing ceremony. He put a special feeling in the room on a day that we will never forget. He is genuine and true. The best decision we made regarding our wedding prior to the "i do's." Thank you Terry!

    I am another wedding professional (a harpist), and I have played over 1,000 weddings in the past decade. Whenever I arrive to play harp at a ceremony that Terry is officiating, I know that I can breathe easy and enjoy the flow of the day.
    Terry makes each ceremony unique and meaningful. Because Terry is truly a professional, I never need to worry about timing. If you want someone to entertain your family and friends with stories about the meaning of marriage and your personal journey while still keeping the value of your commitment as the focus, Terrance Brady is your officiant.

    Terry Brady performed a wonderful ceremony for us. While looking for an officiant, I learned that other officiants charged a similar amount and only showed up on the day of the wedding. Terry took the time to get to know us on multiple occasions to create a ceremony that was perfect for us, as well as attend the rehearsal. After the wedding, people asked how long we had known Terry as it appeared we had known him for years! What a compliment to his service. Communication was very easy and Terry was very responsive. We would highly recommend Terry as an officiant!

    We were instantly comfortable with Terry upon meeting him. His genuine interest in our relationship and marriage was reflected in the ceremony. Terry's down to earth and warm personality is perfectly balanced with his professionalism. We highly recommend his services to any couple looking for a heartfelt ceremony delivered by more than just an officiant, but by someone who could be a member of your family.

    Terry was amazing to work with - he met with us several times prior to the ceremony to ensure that he had a good grasp on who were are as individuals, as well as couple, and to understand the journey that we have shared together. He crafted a beautiful ceremony, and we have already received many comments about the job that he did. He kept the ceremony light and had a few comedic references for the guest! I really love that he incorporated our family into the ceremony, especially with both of us having loved ones that could not join in our special day. I would highly recommend anyone working with Terry - you won't regret the decision!

    Terry Brady was such a wonderful person to have married us. He was able to make our ceremony about us. He was so flexible with adapting to our views and beliefs. We went over out ceremony with him numerous times before our wedding because it was important to him. He really took our event seriously and did such an amazing job. I hope everyone gets the same experience I had because of him. I highly, highly recommend anyone considering him to do their ceremony!!

His service was exactly what we were looking for and he really personalized the ceremony.

    My now husband and I found almost all our vendors from Wedding Wire. When I came across Terry, he was the closest to us and his reviews on the website were all so great. We met with him at his house, was very professional, told us stories and made it feel like he was a friend we had never met before. So we booked him for our wedding day. Kept in contact through email and had another meeting a week before wedding day. Very reliable, very personable, and service he had written was rightly said and perfect length in time. Thank you, Terry!

    I cannot recommend Terry Brady highly enough! When I emailed Terry to check his availability, he was very prompt with his response. At our first meeting, Terry read through a sample ceremony script that he had already customized based on the little information that he knew about us. He assured us that he would keep writing and re-writing the ceremony until it was just the way we wanted. Terry will script the ceremony to suit the clients' preferences. As Terry told us, he can incorporate "a whole lotta God, a little bit of God, or no God at all" into the ceremony. My husband and I are a non-religious interracial couple, and there was not even a hint of judgement from Terry.
    Terry took the initiative to visit our wedding website to learn more about us, and he used that information to write the most beautiful, memorable, meaningful, non-boring ceremony. He made references to very special details such as our first date and the moment of our proposal, and even cracked a few jokes that everyone loved! We incorporated a special African tasting tradition into our ceremony, and I later found out that Terry, upon seeing the empty bowls, took the initiative to fill all of the bowls with the necessary ingredients (including asking the caterer for lemon slices) and place them on the table himself before the ceremony! How sweet was that?!
    After the ceremony, our guests were RAVING about Terry. One of our guests - a baptist minister - asked Terry if he could 'steal' some of his material to use when he officiates weddings in his own church! Our wedding was two months ago, and we're still getting compliments on our wonderful officiant. We had great food, cake, dancing, and even a caricature artist on our wedding day, but Terry's ceremony was my favorite part of the entire day. We met with one other officiant after meeting Terry, and she could not even compare to him!! Do yourself a favor and hire him; you'll be thankful you did. ;-)

    We highly recommend Terry for your wedding day! From the first meeting all the way through the ceremony he was amazing! Very friendly, made us feel comfortable and assured us we had nothing to worry about! The ceremony was perfect and we've had several people compliment what a wonderful job he did. Thank you, Terry!!!! You are a natural when it comes to marrying couples:) We were lucky to have you officiate our big day!!!

    My wife and I interviewed a handful of potential officiants for our wedding but we never left a meeting feeling like we found that perfect person to conduct our ceremony. That was until we met Terry Brady. My wife found Terry through Yelp and Wedding Wire and it was there that we read nothing but amazing reviews. After our first meeting, we found Terry to be very professional, with a great sense of humor, and a deep interest in getting to know us both on a personal level. That's what we loved about Terry: he truly cared about us and knowing our story. After a couple meetings, it was like Terry was a family friend, someone that you feel you've known for a long time.

    Terry's knowledge and experience really helped when it came to planning our ceremony. He took our ideas and requests seriously and in the process put together an amazing ceremony that was both personal to us and fun for our guests. It really was an amazing day! Our parents and guests have not stopped raving about Terry and the ceremony. We are extremely glad we got to know him and that he was able to be apart of our special day. We would recommend Terry to anyone!

    Mr. Brady is by far one of the most caring and gracious people that we have ever met. The time he spent with us preparing for our wedding was far and above any expectations my wife and I could have imagined. From our first meeting to get acquainted with each other, to the follow up phone calls and our second meeting. Mr. Brady worked very closely with us to ensure the ceremony was exactly what we wanted. In the end we would be happy to call Terry Brady our friend.

    Terry Brady was fantastic! We were in a bit of a bind, all of the officiants that were recommended to us were booked on our date so I went to google and started looking officiants up. It ended up being a blessing in disguise because Terry was absolutely phenomenal to work with!

    The day I emailed him I received a response that he was available for our date, and wanted to make an appointment to meet with us. He was very flexible when my fiance had to go out of town and changed the date of our appointment for us. It was great that he insisted on meeting with us 3 times before our wedding (a perk that is sometimes an upcharge with other officiants) and it made sure we really got to know him, and he got to know us. We knew we wanted to book him when my fiance and I had tears in our eyes when he read through his basic ceremony, without any personalization.

    From the first meeting it was great. He answered any random emails I sent, met with us again to go through the ceremony, and then attended our rehearsal. And all of that was included in his very reasonable price. People commented after the ceremony that he talked about us like he knew us most of our lives (they couldn't believe we found him the way we did!)

    I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs an officiant, and I already have to several of our family members who are planning on getting married in the near future. He really was a joy to work with, and I hope our paths cross again in the future!

    Terry Brady is an amazing officiant and just a kind-hearted person. He put an extra special touch on our wedding and we were more than happy with his every effort to make our ceremony perfect. His extreme professionalism also made him an ideal choice for our officiant. Terry also has a unique and kind voice at which he carries out well. He also made an effort to include that we are military and thanked us during the ceremony. It was very honoring and we are so happy we chose him. Although Terry seems to be a busy man, he was more than willing to work with our schedule. We highly recommend Terry Brady to make any wedding day just that more special. You will not be disappointed. :)
