    He made my wedding so special

    I got married on Aug. 2018 and Gerard made our day so special he was kind, professional and very patient. Like usual there’s always someone running late in this case it was my mother and my sister so we couldn’t start without them. Gerard was so understanding and patient it made me feel horrible having him wait for over an hour but he reassured me it was ok. Not to mention he had another event a few blocks down. Thankfully he made it to his event and came back. I will forever be grateful. I recommend his services 1000000%. You will NOT regret it. That is why I am using his services again for my daughter’s quinceanera, my first grandchild’s christening and my 20th wedding anniversary of course if he’s available for the days. I promise you will be thankful you hired him. He is such a sweetheart and his work speaks for itself. Gerard if you’re reading this, thank you so much for making my day as special and loving as you did. Bless you always.

    Amazing job! Helpful and informative!

    Gerard was so nice and just very fitting to officiate us! When we first met him we knew we picked the right person for the job! My family got to meet him during the wedding and they all loved him! He worked with us on everything we wanted to be apart of our ceremony and made it super easy for us! Thank you so much!

    Gerard was awesome!

    Gerard was AWESOME! My wife and I are from PA so we did not have a church here in FL. We were looking for someone laid back and flexible...someone that could sprinkle in some religious aspects (for the parents/in-laws) while keeping the ceremony short and sweet (30 min or less). Gerard checked all of our boxes and was fantastic for what we wanted. Great quality, communication and experience! Thank you, Gerard!

    Gerard had a natural gift for making everyone feel comfortable.

    Gerard was so responsive during our year of engagement. We live in NY so we had zoomed but hadn’t met in person until the rehearsal. Gerard has the kind of personality that makes you feel like you’ve always known him. Gerard had a natural gift for making everyone feel comfortable. Our family and friends loved him. They actually thought that my husband and I knew him because we had such great chemistry. Gerard is funny, sweet, caring and genuinely good at what he does. When it came down to the last month of the wedding I sent him some ideas that I had for the ceremony and he sent me a script that I was able to add and make changes to. Very easy!

    Thank you Gerard !!!

    Gerard married my husband and I on 9/16/2022! He was an absolute pleasure to work with. We originally planned on getting married at the courthouse but last minute decided to hire an officiant so that my family could be there. Gerard responded super quick and was so helpful with all the last minute planning. Couldn’t be happier with how the day turned out and so glad we hired Gerard !

    AMAZING experience!

    Gerard was such a pleasure to work with. He took the time to get to know my husband and I and make the ceremony everything we dreamed of and catered to our specific needs. He was very responsive to us and we would recommend to anyone! We can’t say enough good things about him! He also was able to recommend other venders for us, and we were SO appreciative for the recommendation he gave us!

    Perfect Night!

    Gerard was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was so kind and helpful. He took his time and made sure our special night was just as how we had imagined it would be. We wanted short and sweet and he delivered. He met us out at our beach location, read our nuptials, and helped to make it a very magical night. He even stayed and took a few pictures for us. Then he handled all of our paperwork so we didn’t have to bother with it. I would highly recommend Gerard for your wedding ceremony!!

    We're married!

    We met with Mr. Lorentz via zoom, a few days before our wedding. He explained the process, let us choose our reasons and basically guided us through the ceremony. At the ceremony, he had a cute certificate we could use to sign and later hang from our wall; since I'd mentioned to him we needed to have our witnesses sign our license, which we forgot to provide at the given time. Everything went according to plan and we're now happily married!

    Amazing and Stress Free

    From the first time I called him, he was nothing but professional. He catered to my needs, and eased my stress. He was punctual and communicated with me the whole time. He even helped by giving advice and taking care of the license for me. Long story short, I had to go to a different county to get my license. I thought I was going to have to make that long drive the next day to drop it off. But at the rehearsal, I handed it to him and he said he will take care of it from there. It was nice to have something lifted off of my plate. If I ever get married again, I'll definitely be calling him. Lol

    You Want Gerard as Your Officiant

The ceremony was beautiful and one we will never forget.

    Beautiful Ceremony!!

    Gerard did an amazing job with our ceremony service. He put together options for us to choose from and all of them were so beautiful. All my guests keep saying how beautiful the ceremony was, it was truly something special. Would recommend him to anyone I know who is getting married! Very flexible and truly cares about his clients and their experience. He took the license for us that night and dropped it in the drop box so we wouldn’t have to worry about it. Really eased my nerves for the day of and would recommend to anyone!

    Couldn't have had a better officiant ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Due to covid, the pastor at our church wasn't able to be an officiant like we had originally planned, so we had to frantically search for someone who wasn't already booked for our date. Thank goodness Gerard was available! He was quick to write me back whenever I had questions and made sure to include our input when setting up the ceremony outline. He did a great job at the ceremony as well and I would recommend him to anyone searching for a officiant!

    The Perfect Ceremony

    Gerard was amazing! He made the ceremony fun and made everyone feel at ease. Ever seen a movie where the bride was late? Well, story of my life. I got stuck in traffic and was late to my own wedding! But, Gerard waited patiently and still happily greeted me upon arrival and we had a perfect ceremony. I highly recommend Gerard for your ceremony, you will not regret it one bit! He’s patient, kind, and has a great sense of humor. We were blessed to have Gerard as part of our special day!

    Great experience with this officiate

    We recently traveled to Sanibel Island and hired Gerard to officiate a vow renewal ceremony for our friends 25th Wedding Anniversary. We arranged everything online with Gerard. He was very easy to work with and very flexible. Gerard proved to be extremely personable and was truly interested in providing a great experience. He traveled about an hour to meet us, was on time, and prepared.

    Excellent service!

    Gerard was great!! We weren't able to meet with him in-person beforehand, but we were able to video chat with him. He provided recommendations on obtaining our marriage license in Florida and provided us with sample vows and readings for our ceremony. He was very easy to work with, I would highly recommend Gerard!

    Easy to work with

    Gerard was very responsive to texts, calls, and emails. We had a last minute change to the venue and he was perfectly fine with it. Price was EXTREMELY reasonable. Due to the pandemic and things that have happened throughout the year with us, Gerard has already agreed to renew our vows at our ceremony on our 1 year anniversary.

    Perfection

    Gerard was wonderful to work with! Our day could not have been any more perfect. He helped guide us through all of our options, making sure we hit the nail on the head with religious acknowledgements but also making our ceremony fit us as a couple. Well spoken and incredibly kind, we would recommend Gerard to anybody who is seeking an inclusive and detail oriented officiant.

    He was great

    Gerard was a fantastic officiant for our wedding! He went above expectations and helped with more then the actual vows. I was having trouble picking music and he had a huge verity as well as speakers for us to use. We are from Minnesota so it was a huge help and last minute for him but he was amazing and I would definitely recommend him to anyone and everyone!! Thank you so much Gerard!

    Gerard was wonderful!

    Gerard was wonderful from the moment we meant him. He was so easy to work with and very responsive. It was nice that he wanted to meet us in person to get to know us and understand what we were looking for. He gives very helpful ceremony options to help choose how you want your ceremony to be. He helped me make some ceremony decisions when I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted. I also really appreciated that he came to our rehearsal to run through it with us. It put my mind at ease for our wedding day. In addition he filed our marriage license for us. Gerard is experienced and he loves what he does which comes out in his work. Thank you Gerard for everything that you did to make our wedding day run smoothly. It was a pleasure to work with you.

    Best of the Best

    How do you write a review that would let others know how wonderful Gerard is? Let’s start with how smooth the process was and how amazing our Ceremony turned out with Gerard as our officiant. The communication was lightning fast, and the information provided made customizing our ceremony the easiest part of planning the wedding. Gerard was more than happy to incorporate a hand fasting into our ceremony and even dressed to the theme of our wedding, which was a Scottish Motorcycle theme. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. If you are looking to get married in Southwest Florida, Gerard is the best in town!
    Gerard, thanks again for making our special day perfect!

    Great Ceremony

    I loved working with Gerad he responds supper fast, faster than The FLash. He is very helpful in giving information you will need for your big day. We receive our marriage license less than a week Gerad had sent it out for us. Our Ceremony was just what we needed and wanted.
    Thank you Gerad

    Ps the only regret was he did not stay and celebrate with us..

    Could not have wished for anyone better

    Gerard was the perfect person to officiate our wedding. He was flexible and understanding through the whole process. His speech at the ceremony was moving and really beautiful.

    May wedding

    Very responsive. Did a wonderful job with the ceremony and very helpful during the rehearsal! Obviously none of us knew what to do and he lead everything and it ran very smooth. He met whenever we needed too and always answered the phone or responded to text very quickly. He was very prepared, we had a very small technical problem with the tablet during the ceremony but he had a back up plan and picked right back up so fast! He answered all questions very well and the whole experience with him was nothing but wonderful!

    Perfect ceremony!

    Gerard was amazing! We planned our wedding from afar and he was very accommodating to meet us while we were in town for a short weekend. His communication was on point throughout our planning and he even gave us several recommendations of readings, vows, etc. He was a half hour early to our rehearsal and ceremony, dressed to impress, and performed great personable words for our ceremony! We very much recommend him! Thanks again!

    Gerard is very professional. He is very soft spoken but also very confident at the same time. We were very honoured to be married by him. The choices he had for us to pick from (pronouncement, vows, etc) were very good. I would strongly suggest any couple to hire him as your officiant.

    Very Blessed

    I had made plans with another officiant before I found Gerard, she seemed very sweet over the phone at first. After speaking on the phone and through email she wanted me to send a $75 holding fee with no contract which I didn’t feel comfortable with. She insisted that if I didn’t send it then she would not mark me down. After a few more days I tried explaining how I would kinda want the ceremony, she responded that we would not discuss anything until I made the deposit without a contract. When I asked if I could give her cash in person instead of through the mail, she disagreed strongly. At that time I knew I needed to find someone else. I found Gerard to officiate my wedding and talking to him on the phone was a relief and less stress than with the woman I had previously spoke with. He sent me ideas of how I would want the ceremony and sand ceremony so my children could be apart of my big day. He sent locations since I was from Indiana and worked with me through all of it. I say I am blessed because he help me so much through all of it and even when I made a last minute location change he didn’t get mad or anything. We appreciate having you do our ceremony and being apart of our big day!

    Gerard was amazing!! We had a casual wedding on a boat-access only island and he traveled by car and boat to be with us. He fit in with our group like he was family. He made the planning process so simple and organized. He traveled an hour just to meet us personally and talk details. The ceremony was perfect. He made it very personable and sweet. It was the best day of our lives and Gerard was a huge part of that. We would recommend him to anyone.

    Gerard was very helpful with emails about recommendations as we were out of towners. He met us before our wedding day and made us feel very comfortable. We were glad we found him. On our big day we were not disappointed. He surprised me with my favorite passage from Corinthians! He was a wonderful part of our small wedding and our family. We will look Gerard and his wife up whenever we come down to this part of Florida. Not only did he make our day momentous but we made a special friend! Thank you, Gerard!

    I am so lucky that I found Weddings by Gerard. He went out of his way to make sure our needs were taken care of. He is responsive, timely, professional and friendly. If you are looking for a wedding officiant in or near Ft. Myers FL., you need to contact him.

    I searched for along time to find the right officiant! Gerard was the perfect fit for us!! The ceremony was made extra special because of Gerard! He’s very caring and understanding! Easy going and really makes you feel more comfortable! The day he married my husband and I, he became apart of our hearts!

    I can't say enough about our experience with Gerard!
    He was very responsive to all our questions, he offered options and recommendations and was very open to our requests to make 2 families and 2 languages blend on a beautiful ceremony.
    Gerard took the time to meet us in person, before the ceremony to go thru every detail and make sure things were ready to flow.
    We are so happy he was with us in our special day, it was like having a dear friend joining our wedding!!

    Gerard was absolutely amazing! He was not only professional but We felt as though we have known him for years. The vows were outstanding as I tried so hard to hold back my tears as I placed the ring on my now wife. Can't be happier with Gerard's personality and his services. I hope we will cross paths again!

    We had a wonderful wedding experience with Gerard. From our very first correspondences, Gerard was always quick to respond when ever we had questions and he returned phone calls promptly. He gave us advise we needed and some suggestions on photographers. On our wedding day, May 3, 2018, Gerard was on time and well prepared. We were having a small ceremony and Gerard gave us things to choose from of what we wanted him to say and he also allowed us to add bible verses as well. We said our own wedding vows which I truly loved. I didn't get to meet Gerard until I walked up to the beach to get married, and everything flowed together perfectly. My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Gerard, thank you for your professionalism and making our wedding day special and compete. Jacqueline & Bryan.

    We requested Gerard to officiate our services in Sanibel, FL on April 17, 2018 and he did a PHENOMENAL job! He was extremely professional and responsive - communicating several times per day and offering his advice, which was particularly helpful because we were planning the wedding from out of state. He let us know what was required, where the closest courthouse was, and even offered referrals for a photographer (which we ended up going with someone else, but it was still helpful). He sent us a script that he typically uses, with several options to choose from or the ability to add our own pieces. We ended up doing a blend of his script with a little bit of our personal touches added and overall, start to finish, the ceremony took about 15-20 min. It was truly wonderful. Gerard was extremely flexible, as we changed the location just a few days before and had an issue with parking so myself and my parents were a few minutes late.

    Overall, for the services Gerard provided I would have expected to pay at least 3 times the amount we did - he is very affordable, which shows he does it because he enjoys doing it. He is very professional, easy to work with, affordable, patient and does a fantastic job. I highly recommend using him. Thank you Gerard!

    Gerard was the absolute perfect fit for our wedding. We wanted a quick and simple ceremony and he was able to deliver just that. He gave us options of inserts to choose from, either longer or shorter versions. He also allowed me to choose other inserts I had found and put it all together for me. After the ceremony we had gotten sidetracked with pictures and he was patient and waited for us, and he also showed up to the ceremony early to get prepared. We highly highly recommend him, thanks so much Gerard!!!

    Gerard was a blessing. My fiancé and I were looking for a low key ceremony. Gerard came and met with us and listened to our ideas and delivered.

    A few days before he reached out to us to be sure we were ok and if we needed anything. I hope I never have to use him again as I am very happily married but highly recommend him

    I was a catere for 15 plus years and built my buisness on simple concepts with the highest regard to my clients. Gerard must have gone to the same school

    Thanks

    Gerard was fantastic. In a sea of vendors at your wedding, trust me, you need a minister who is reliable and does what he says he's going to do. We recommend Gerard for your Florida wedding.
