About
My focus is on making sure you have the perfect day. I have several styles of vows and can be religious or non- religious. I work with you to help create the exact vibe you want for your wedding day.
I attended Word Of Life Bible Institute in 2002 and went on to receive my ordination from the American Baptist Association. I am also a registered member of the American Marriage association and have held a good standing membership for the past 4 years.
I work with couples to have the experience they need, I have several options for vows and ceremony type and can work with you to create a unique experience. I also offer marriage counseling as well as relationship counseling for couples getting engaged or for those who are single and hoping to find the right kind of relationship.
*All proceeds from wedding officiating go to Pastor J's Ministry so not only will you get an amazing officiant but you will be donating to Pastor J and allow him to work on the streets with the mentally ill and those suffering with addiction.

Pastor J made our ceremony perfect! His scripts online made it easy for us to customize our wedding ceremony, and once we made our selections, he got back to us with a draft of the ceremony quickly. We were both pretty calm as this was not our first marriage. Pastor J was exceptional for our nuptials but we both enjoyed the time spent afterwards discussing his ministry. We could not have been happier with our decision.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I can work with anybody on pricing. It is really based around time and distance for travel. I want you to have an amazing day above all else.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to have a brief phone call to get to know the couple and what they are looking for. I then direct them to my online catalog of wedding scripts I have done or can do. We can work together to create a unique experience or go with one of the scripts available.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I spent 2 years at Word Of Life Bible Institute and continued my education with the ABA. I am ordained and in good standing with the American Marriage Association. I am also a certified Life Coach in Indiana.
