As our officiant, Chris was very professional but also laid back enough that we felt like friends right off the bat.
We loved having him officiate our wedding and if we could choose Chris again we would! <3

Chris was wonderful! We waited until last minute to book our officiant and I'm happy we did because it brought us him. A google search brought me to Thumbtack and when I stumbled across Chris, I saw all good reviews and beautiful pictures of him with his couples he's married. Now we get to be one of them.
Our wedding guests thought we knew him or he was a friend of ours because of how personable and kind he was. He was easy to communicate with and the price was very fair for how well he executed on our big day! Book Chris for your wedding today, you won't regret it.

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My typical process with new clients is to treat them as a friend. I love to get to know there love story with their partner and relate on my perspective of love. I always ask my new clients what are their expectations so I can meet and exceed what they ask for.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
My mother has been officiating weddings for almost a decade in Virginia. The other more personal reason is that most of the songs I write are always geared to the world of love. All the glory and hardships. Love is so fascinating to me and being able to bring two loved ones together brings so much joy to my heart.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Look for someone that’s actually interested into getting to know you and someone’s that almost instantly feels like a friend.
