About
Hi, I’m Minister Cook your local wedding officiant. I’m a seminary graduate with a bachelor’s degree in Christian Ministry and have been an ordained minister for over 12 years pastoring churches in multiple states. I now call Grand Junction on the Western Slope, home—and I’d be honored to bring that experience to your special day.
I’m passionate about creating a meaningful, stress-free ceremony that truly reflects your relationship and values. From intimate elopements to larger celebrations, I provide wedding ceremonies of all shapes and sizes.
If you’re looking for a warm, experienced officiant to guide you through the ceremony with care and professionalism, I’d love to talk with you about your vision.

Him and his wife do absolutely amazing work and did such a great job with our wedding that we would recommend them to all of our closest family and friends. If you’re looking for a Christian pastor that is kind, does amazing work, does what he says he’s going to, then this is your pastor for sure.
