About
Ray Moore has been officiating wedding ceremonies since 1991 (and they're still together), We've united dozens of couples this year. With each ceremony, we learn something new that we bring to the next couple. We have done simple elopements, traditional vows, sand ceremonies and even communion! During the rehearsal, the "how's and why's" of ceremony parts are discussed, giving the bridal party a deeper understanding of their roles. This reflects in the actual ceremony and gives an appreciation for the step the bride and groom are taking. Karen has a strong background in event management, floral design and arranging and budget management. It's been a natural progression to wedding planning and day-of coordinating. We invite you to see just a sampling of her floral designs on our web page. She charges for the cost of the flowers/greenery at wholesale rate and charges $30.00 per hour to design the wedding floral's. We enjoy assisting those who are looking to the Upstate and Charlotte area as a destination wedding spot. We can help with the ceremony, do light planning or be your "feet on the ground" to coordinate the logistics as much as you need us to. Let our experience and know-how help you make your day just as special as you dream it to be! We pride ourselves on our ability to "create sanctuary" throughout the ceremony. Our couples have had smooth, calm and laughter as we celebrate the Love that brought them to this point in their relationship and set it, as such, from this day forward. Every ceremony is unique. Working with our couples to create the ceremony of their dreams is always enjoyable. Our flexibility for how they want the ceremony to go, and with our guidance and suggestions, we've yet to have a situation or request we couldn't fulfill! It keeps it fresh and exciting for us and validates our passion for uniting couples with only one hitch: THEIRS!

Ray and his wife were absolutely wonderful! We planned our wedding in less than a month and they were so easy to coordinate with in such a short amount of time. Ray was fine with my laid back attitude and didn’t require a ton of details, if I said “whatever you think is best” he said “ok!” I’m not much of a wedding planner so this was much appreciated! We met for the first time the day of the wedding, but their kind and helpful demeanor made both of us feel so comfortable. The ceremony was beautiful and they left us with all the information we needed. Plus his wife took pictures which was a great surprise! I highly recommend them if you want someone experienced who really cares about their work!

Details: Wedding • Christian • 21 - 50 guests • Help writing vows will not be needed • English • Officiant will not be needed at the rehearsal • Officiant does not need to be present at rehearsal

You did all that in less than a month???!!! Wow! That takes teamwork! We are so pleased to have been asked to be a part of your celebration. And you couldn't ask for a nicer venue. Your sister really should consider renting it out. In any event, we wish you and Waldo a lifetime of growth, prosperity and happiness. Thank you for your very kind words. It was a pleasure!

We couldn't be happier to have chosen Rev Ray to be our wedding officiant for our September 2017 Folly Beach ceremony! In the weeks leading up to the big day we met with Rev Ray and his wonderful wife, Karen to go over our vision for the ceremony. He listened to our ideas, gave us suggestions, and put us at ease, knowing that the most important part of the wedding day was in good hands. He was also happy to let us literally tie the knot with a knot tying ceremony, which made the ceremony even more special. My husband and I recited our own vows, tied the knot, and even though we still recited the traditional wedding vows, our ceremony felt so special and unique. Afterwards, we received a wedding binder with the full ceremony and pictures that Karen took during the ceremony. Such a nice touch! Lastly, if you're looking for someone to create a stunning wedding bouquet, choose Karen! I was SO in love with the bouquet she put together for me. Thank you for everything!

Our wedding ceremony was beautiful! Loved the sand ceremony to blend our families... holding every child to their vow! Thank you again Ray and Karen! Another note... Karen took great pics at the ceremony and sent to us as well. Amazing people
From This Day Forward Wedding Services's reply
The sand ceremony was over the TOP!! Amazing energy. I especially enjoyed each child's enthusiasm for making their family pledge. The group hug at the end was an impromptu inspiration and sealed the deal! Best wishes for a happy future. You and Chris are a beautiful couple. Stay in touch! ~Rev Ray and Karen

We had a great experience with Rev Ray and Karen! They made our beach wedding at Edisto very special and we didn't have to worry about a thing. I would definitely recommend their services. Thank you for making our day so special!
