Eliza C. Married on 07/09/2021A joy to work with
My husband and I had such a wonderful experience working with Gay Lee to design the wedding ceremony of our dreams. We scheduled meetings with a few officiants but after our first meeting with Gay Lee we canceled the others because we knew that she would be a good fit. We wanted a ceremony that was spiritual and imbued with meaning but not religious. Gay Lee suggested many ideas to help us to achieve this including a ring warming which we hadn't seen at other weddings and was a wonderful way to involve our families in the ceremony. We met with Gay Lee several times during the planning process and she was always friendly and warm. Even though we had only known her for a few months, our ceremony felt so personalized and true to us, like we were getting married by a family member. Gay Lee is a special soul and we're so glad to have met her!Wedding Preacher for Hire's reply:
Thank you, Eliza. I so enjoyed being part of your special day--a special day for two special people! -

Daisy Z. Married on 04/03/2021Wonderful officiant and wedding counselor
Reverend Gay is the sweetest! My now husband and I loved working with her. We got to know her well through our pre-marital counseling sessions, which were incredibly helpful in helping us understand one another better, identify potential sources of conflict and how to navigate them, and prepare us for married life. She was very patient with us during our rehearsal. On the day of, she arrived early to coordinate with the rest of our vendors. She also shared a personalized message during our ceremony. She is the kindest and an incredible joy to work with!
**This was a micro wedding held on April 3, 2021 with all participants either fully vaccinated or tested negative for COVID19 twice**Wedding Preacher for Hire's reply:
Daisy and her husband, Ryan, and I got to be good friends, during our premarital counseling sessions. Thank you for the kind words. Can you think of a better profession than being able to be part of peoples' lives at such a joyful and important time? -

Gisel Z. Married on 04/19/2020Look no further!
Our original officiant cancelled ~1 week before our wedding on 6/25/2021. Luckily Rev. Gay was available for our date and had done weddings at our venue (Keswick Vineyards).
Since our very first outreach she was very responsive. She is knowledgeable and professional, which we could tell after our very first conversation.
During our rehearsal and ceremony, she remained calm and helped our coordinator ensure everything went as it’s supposed to. She took her time to incorporate very personal details into the ceremony, such as analyzing a poem we had provided.
We are so thankful that we were able to find her and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a knowledge, detail-oriented, patient and caring officiant.Wedding Preacher for Hire's reply:
Gisel and her husband were a delight to work with. And, I enjoyed meeting some of their friends and family members. I will add that Keswick Vineyard, has a professional and caring staff, on call to take care of any little thing. Finally, the weather cooperated. What more can you ask for? Much happiness in the years to come, Gisel! -

December 2019 Wedding
We were so lucky to have Gay Lee officiate our wedding. She took the time to get to know us as a couple and helped us create the perfect ceremony. My husband and I are both Christian, but did not want a super religious ceremony- Gay Lee had the perfect readings and helped us strike the tone we were looking for. We would absolutely hire her again for our wedding day. Thank you so much for everything Gay Lee! -

Christy Married on 09/21/2019Will Not Dissapoint
Gay Lee helped make our day so special. When we talked with her during our initial meeting, she took the time to get to know us and asked us great questions about our day, what we were looking for in a ceremony, etc. She put together a great ceremony that we were delighted with and that our families enjoyed. I appreciate her making it an easy process. We had a difficult time finding someone we wanted to officiate our wedding, but when we met Gay Lee, we knew she would bring such great presence and energy to our wedding day. We were fortunate to have her a part of our day!Wedding Preacher for Hire's reply:
Thanks Christy. Best to Benji. Keep in touch on Facebook or Twitter! Would love to find out how your lives unfold. -

Laurel Married on 06/09/2018
Perfect fit for anyone!
Gay Lee was absolutely wonderful! We enjoyed all the time we spent with her getting to know each other and putting together the perfect ceremony. On our wedding day, we had an escalating downpour throughout almost the entire ceremony and Gay Lee rolled with the circumstances in tune with how we were feeling about the rain and thunder--- exhilarated! We had so much fun and I am so glad we found the best fit for an officiant.Wedding Preacher for Hire's reply:
Thanks, Laurel. Good memories, certainly. In fact, I would say, UNFORGETABLE. I have shared the drama of your wedding with lots of people. So much fun, looking back. Blessings to you in your lives together. Hope you'll keep in touch if only on Facebook. -

Need an officiant for wedding ceremony? Hire Gay Lee!
We hired Gay Lee for our wedding in April 2018. We had a lovely experience! We opted to do the counseling session prior to our ceremony and spent time learning about our personalities and needs as individuals and a couple to better prepare us for our upcoming marriage. Gay Lee was kind, professional, and so easy to talk to- we learned a lot about each other and we're so happy we added on this service.
As for the actual wedding, Gay Lee was prompt with timing and responsiveness, provided flexibility in our approach to our service (for us, we wanted a modern but traditional approach), helping to provide us with a number of readings to consider, and ceremonial approaches. We're both Christian, but wanted a more informal service, as our service was outside at Bold Rock Cidery in the Blue Ridge Mountains. It was perfect, she did a great job, both with the rehearsal and wedding, and we would choose her all over again to be an important part of our big day. Thank you Dr. Rev Gay Lee!
Wedding Preacher for Hire's reply:
Thank you, Gina! What a wonderful day it was. Bold Rock is a super venue for a laid-back ceremony. Continued happiness in the years to come.
