Introduction
I was born in New York and matriculated through the catholic school system. I am a graduate of Fairleigh Dickinson University and Alliance Theological Seminary. I hold a BS in Business Management and a Master of Divinity (M.Div). I have over 20 years of ministry experience and pastor a growing, thriving church in Hackensack, NJ. I love people, believe in healthy families, and enjoy serving in any way possible. I am available to perform wedding ceremonies (non-denominational mentions of God and/or no mentions), vow renewals and provide pastoral counseling. My wife and I always try to provide a loving, nurturing experience for everyone. Wedding Package: 1. Consultation – The initial free phone consultation provides each couple an opportunity to discuss their needs with me and confirm comfort with services. Additional, Zoom or in person meetings can be scheduled to review the contract, in-take form and deposit options. 2. Ceremony Design – Upon receipt and review of the in-take form, I will work to draft a ceremony that professionally and accurately captures the moment that each couple desires. If desired, I work to incorporate special moments, memories, family and friends for the unique experience. 3. Wedding Day – Once the ceremony design and format is approved, the excitement of the wedding day becomes the focus. I certainly understand and respect the stress that comes along with wedding planning so I arrive 30 minutes prior to the ceremony start time. This allows me the opportunity to gather vows, rings or discuss last minute logistics. *A la carte services – Pre/Post marital counseling, license recording, wedding rehearsal.

I had the pleasure of having Pastor James Clark as the officiant for my wedding ceremony, and I cannot express how grateful and impressed my wife and I were with his services. As a pastor, he brought a unique touch of warmth, spirituality, and wisdom to our special day that made it truly unforgettable. From the very beginning, Pastor James took the time to get to know us as a couple. He listened attentively to our story, values, and desires for the ceremony, which he beautifully incorporated into the proceedings. He went above and beyond to make sure our ceremony reflected our love and shared beliefs, crafting a service that was both heartfelt and personalized. What truly stood out about Pastor James was his ability to create an atmosphere of love and unity. His calming presence and genuine care for us and our guests made everyone feel included and cherished. He eloquently delivered the ceremony with grace, capturing the essence of our relationship and the promises we were making to each other. Pastor James seamlessly blended spiritual elements into the ceremony, respecting and embracing our diverse backgrounds and beliefs. His words were meaningful, uplifting, and inspiring, touching the hearts of all who were present. It was evident that he genuinely cared about the union of two souls and the lifelong commitment we were making. Furthermore, Pastor James was incredibly professional throughout the entire process. He was punctual, organized, and responsive to our questions and concerns. His attention to detail and expertise ensured that our ceremony flowed smoothly, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the moment without any worries. Our wedding day wouldn't have been the same without Pastor James. He played an integral role in creating an atmosphere of love, joy, and unity that will forever be etched in our hearts. We wholeheartedly recommend him to any couple seeking a wedding officiant with a pastor's heart, someone who will make their special day truly extraordinary. Thank you, Pastor James, for making our wedding ceremony an unforgettable experience filled with love and cherished memories.
