Everyone at my ceremony was so impressed with his work. They kept asking, did you know him before? His questionnaire provides a great summary of relevant information about us as a couple. He described our lifetime relationship with such ease and reverence. Everything was committed to memory! Nothing was read from any book or notes. The price point is extremely reasonable. The coordinator at the reception hall was so impressed with him that she listed him as a preferred vendor. He was punctual, personable, and a whole vibe. Look no further if you need an officiant for your wedding ceremony.

We were so so so happy that we worked with Pastor D. He was quick and professional and I appreciate how helpful he was on our wedding. He made all guests laugh so hard while saying our vows. I was beyond elated; and have watched those videos over and over. He sent us forms asking questions and then incorporated them into the day’s activities. He saved our day. We are grateful. After the event he also submitted all paperwork to the court and I picked up my certificate a few days ago. Five stars overall.

Darnell responded in a timely matter and was able to accommodate us at the last minute. We did not have a rehearsal at our request but on our wedding date he arrived early and got to know the entire wedding party. His ceremony speech was beautifully tailored to fit our beliefs and we felt like he was part of the family by the end of our ceremony.

My wife and I were stressing about making sure everything was good and Pastor Brantley (Pastor D) eased the stress away. He told us he got us and once he’s up there everything would be ok. He brought laughter and more joy to everyone with his jokes. Pastor D was professional, helpful throughout the process before and on the big day and he was always available. We enjoyed having Pastor D as the officiant for our wedding and would recommend him to anyone
