About
I’m a retired pastor and experienced wedding officiant specializing in interfaith and non-religious ceremonies. With over 50 years in ministry and officiating, I take time to get to know you so your ceremony truly reflects your relationship, values, and story.
Every celebration is unique. I offer a range of styles—from traditional to contemporary—and I’m happy to incorporate meaningful cultural traditions, family customs, readings, or rituals that matter to you. I also joyfully officiate same-sex weddings.
If you’re looking for a warm, respectful, and flexible officiant to help create a ceremony that feels like “you,” I’d be honored to talk with you about your day.

We loved Rev. Seay! He has a great personality and we loved having him officiate our beach wedding. We were hesitant having someone off an app that we didn’t know marry us, but he set our minds at ease and made our day even more special and memorable! We highly recommend Rev. Seay!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My basic fee is $200 for ceremonies in the Tampa Bay area (Hillsborough, Pinellas, Manatee, and Pasco Counties. For other counties my fee increases to either $250 or 300. A deposit of $50 is due when a ceremony is booked.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When a couple decides to make use of my services, we communicate to see what type of ceremony is desired, along with the type of vows and any special requests for the ceremony. I will then customize the ceremony to suit the couple. I do not use a programmed "one ceremony fits all". It is important for me to customize the ceremony for each couple.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a seminary educated retired pastor with over 40 years of experience. I have worked with several different denominations in various areas of the country. My beliefs are that my job is to deliver the most appropriate ceremony for each individual couple as everyone is different.
