EC Matrimony

ed up to the outdoor venue despite the rain. Our ceremony was a perfect balance between lighthearted and deeply personal and meaningful. We had multiple guests mention how well Tobin had done and how special our ceremony was. We loved having Tobin lead us through our special day and are so happy with our choice!

ciant for our ceremony and had a great experience with EC Matrimony. We initially started off with Ernie, but due to an unforseen personal event, we were switched to having Tobin as our officiant. With both officiants we met for an hour-long consultation. Since we live on the east coast, both Ernie and Tobin were very gracious with their weekend time, and with Tobin we ended up scheduling a follow-up two hour session. These consultations formed the backbone of the vows that Tobin put together for us and they were beautiful. Tobin’s vows captured our story in the perfect tone, and was so spot on that our guests thought he was family. Then for the days leading up to the wedding, Tobin was there for our rehearsal. He did a run through of what the ceremony would feel like, and how to put on the rings. Prior to the rehearsal I was a bit skeptical of why it needed to be done, but the attention to detail in which Tobin walked us through made me realize that he saved us from looking a fool on the day of. Then on the day of, the vows went without a hitch, and Tobin also very graciously agreed to give a short welcoming speech to our guest. After the ceremony, he helped facilitate signing the marriage paperwork, and since we were leaving the next day he also took it back to the county office for filing. One of the things that stood out to us is how communicative both Ernie and Tobin were. They sent us materials ahead of time, outlined exactly what our collaboration would look like, and texted us as we got closer to the date. Doing the wedding from across the country was made a lot easier because of this and prevented a lot of potential stress. As for Tobin himself, he is such a sweet and authentic person. Chatting with him felt super effortless, like talking to a friend, and I was really impressed by how at ease we felt meeting him in person even though we had only called twice before. He also had a lot of gravitas while still feelilng like a peer. Another thing that stood out is his ability to ask the right questions and go deep. Looking at the vows he read off of day of, I saw the notes and last minute changes, and thought ‘wow Tobin really cares, and he is so well prepared’. Truly a lovely guy who will capture your story in the best light.
