About
Hello, I am Rev. Edward Vaughan. I love meeting new people and I love performing weddings. I work with couples to create the ceremony they have always envisioned. No matter what kind of wedding you are looking for: Christian, spiritual, or non-religious, I can tailor a ceremony to your wishes. It's "Your ceremony your way!"
Weddings are an uplifting experience. It is an honor being a part of a couple's special day and I want them to have a day they will always remember. I am passionate about my work and I think that comes through. For me, this is not just a service it is a sacred ceremony. Please let me know if I can be of assistance to you.

We had a small elopement, but thanks to Edward our ceremony felt so meaningful and special. His words touched our hearts and made the moment one we will always cherish. Thank you, Edward, for providing such an incredible service and for helping make our day truly unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant!

We had the pleasure of having Reverend Edward Vaughan officiate our wedding on October 5th, 2024 at Fall Creek Falls, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. From the very beginning, they were warm, professional, and incredibly organized. They took the time to get to know us, ensuring that our ceremony was personal and meaningful.
On the day of the wedding, Reverend Vaughan brought such a calming presence and conducted the ceremony with grace, humor, and heartfelt emotion. Many of our guests commented on how beautiful and unique the ceremony was, and we completely agree.
Thank you, Edward Vaughan, for creating a moment we will cherish forever. If you’re looking for an officiant who will go above and beyond to make your day special, look no further!
Rev Edward did an amazing job. I texted him in the morning and he responded pretty fast. He listened to what me and my wife wanted. He also helped us with what we did not know. He answered all of our questions in a timely manner. He was very nice and he worked with us when we had to start a little later. I highly recommend
