What People Are Saying
"Chris did a wonderful job in helping Dan and I plan the perfect ceremony for us. He let us pick what we felt comfortable having incorporated in our day, and still made it very personable and traditional. We had guests coming up to us all night saying what a wonderful job he did!!"

"After meeting with Chris once we knew that he was the perfect person to officiate our wedding. He is so friendly and personable and exudes happiness - just what we wanted to set the tone for our wedding day. Working with Chris was so easy. His rates are very reasonable, he's very accomodating, showed up early the day-of, and was so great throughout the whole rehearsal and ceremony.
During the ceremony, Chris focused not only on keeping the ceremony moving along but also on keeping us calm and prepared for what was coming up next. After the ceremony, during our cocktail hour, several guests told our parents about how much they liked Chris. They loved how engaging and articulate he was."

First and foremost, Chris was attentive to our desires, with regard as to what we wanted our ceremony to be like. He was caring and thoughtful and made a point to make the ceremony specific to us; funny and relaxed, yet touching. It's was absolutely perfect and my husband and I couldn't have been happier with how things turned out.

He put both my husband and I at ease, listened to our wishes and incorporated all aspects of our demands into a ceremony that was perfectly taylored to our tastes. Throughout our wedding day guests commented constantly on what a beautiful and personal ceremony he had performed for us. Thanks Chris!"
