Nashvows.com - Todd Rodarmel

Choosing Todd was a no brainer to officiate our wedding after meeting with him once. He was very upfront and informative when discussing the process. We also chose to do premarital counseling with him prior to our wedding and we are very glad we did. The ceremony itself went off perfectly, he made it as easy as possible for us on the big day. All of our friends and family were raving about the words he shared. Would highly recommend Todd to anyone looking, thanks again to you Todd!

On time, great service and very personable

My husband and I could not recommend Todd more highly as a pre-marriage counselor and wedding officiant. His messaging about marriage was deeply meaningful and easy for all of our guests to connect with. His humor and peaceful demeanor put my husband and I at ease, and we felt cared for every step of the way. If you are in search of an officiant to make your counseling experience and ceremony special, look no further!

Todd was so great! Being from out of state, we had no idea who to use for an officiant. We are SO glad we went with Todd. He was so professional and took all of our thoughts & requests and incorporated them into the ceremony. So many guests came up to us after and said it was the best wedding ceremony they had been to and they loved his message. Highly recommend Todd!

Todd was amazing! We did both premarital counseling with him and he officiated our wedding. We really enjoyed the pre-marital counseling and would highly recommend! After the wedding multiple people came up to us and said how amazing Todd was and that they loved the ceremony. He was great! Thanks again

Todd was our officiant for our wedding and did an incredible job. He was thoughtful, articulate, friendly, and funny. We chose to take our premarital counseling with Todd and it was a great way for him to get to know us better, as well as a way for us to feel extra confident going into our marriage. My (now Husband) is Catholic and I am a Quaker and Todd did an amazing job blending the two into a ceremony that felt authentic to us. We cannot recommend him enough!

Todd was THE perfect officiant for our wedding! He was professional and so very kind! The ceremony was tailored for us and so meaningful. Todd has such a wonderful presence and delivery. We cannot recommend him enough!

Todd did a phenomenal job and made our ceremony special. All our guests commented on how impressed they were.

Absolutely wonderful! Very professional and at the same time he felt like a friend. Great communication during the planning stage. Prompt, professional and Christian. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful and meaningful ceremony.

We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant for our wedding. When we first met Todd over video call we knew he was a perfect fit for us. From the beginning, he made us feel comfortable and supported with the vision we had for our ceremony as well what we could expect from him. We did pre-marriage counseling with Todd leading up to our wedding which was very enlightening and let us all get to know each other more. When it came time to the wedding he tailored it perfectly for us while being professional, efficient, and lighthearted. I’ve had multiple family members and friends come up saying he made the ceremony personable and memorable all while revolving around God. I 100% recommend Todd to officiate your wedding!!

We had the pleasure of having Todd as our wedding officiant on 4/29/2023. Not only was Todd incredibly organized and professional throughout the planning process, but he also took the time to really get to know us and understand our unique love story. This made the ceremony feel truly personalized and special, with every detail perfectly tailored to our personalities and preferences. Unfortunately we had a death in the family four days prior to the wedding. As soon as we notified Todd, immediately revised the script to leave a moment of silence right before our vows. During the ceremony itself, Todd struck just the right balance between solemnity and joy, bringing a sense of warmth and positivity that truly set the tone for the rest of the day. His words were heartfelt and meaningful, and they guided us through the ceremony with confidence and grace. I highly recommend Todd to anyone looking for a wedding officiant who is passionate, professional, and truly dedicated to making their special day unforgettable. Thank you Todd for an amazing experience! -Isaac & Jess

Todd Rodarmel officiated at my daughter's wedding. It was perfect! We felt the ceremony was amazing. And guests commented on how heartfelt and moving the service was! It was one of the most beautiful ceremonies I have witnessed. Pastor Rodarmel was great to work with; he took the time to get to know the bride and groom and personalized the ceremony. I could not have asked for anything more beautiful than their ceremony! Thank you!!

Todd was amazing all the way around! He met with us before we signed a contract to go over how our ceremony would go and from there I automatically felt comfortable and confident that he would do wonderful. The ceremony he performed was witty, professional, full of love and advice, and best of all centered around Jesus. I would recommend him x100 to anyone looking for an officiant!

We were very fortunate to have found Todd to officiate our wedding. He was easy to work with and the service exceeded our expectations! I would recommend Todd without any hesitation to anyone who is getting married in or around Nashville. You won’t be disappointed!

Todd did an amazing job officiating our ceremony. We only talked to him a handful of times before the ceremony but he did a beautiful job. It was the perfect time length from start to finish. He told a quick story that was meaningful but still held everyone's attention. We got multiple compliments on his officiating and would recommend him to anyone!

Todd did an incredible job officiating our ceremony. We got so many compliments about Todd and the length of the ceremony. He truly did an amazing job and we would recommend him to anyone!

Todd spoke to us on facetime, and allowed us to determine if he was a good match for our ceremony. He showed up the day of the wedding and took care of all the marriage license things before the ceremony. We had a beautiful ceremony exactly as we had discussed.

We found Todd through the knot’s website and he was a wonderful fit for our wedding! Great communication, friendly, and professional! We would definitely recommend!

Todd and his family saved our wedding. A few weeks before the date we found out that our officiant and DJ were double booked and would not be able to do our wedding. During our meeting with Todd we found out that his son is a DJ and son in law a photographer. They all miraculously had availability for our day! They made everything so simple and effortless for us. I highly recommend them!

Todd came highly recommended and his experienced showed! It was the perfect touch for our day. He also did our marriage counseling that helped us a lot to understand each other before we got started on our marriage journey. Many of my friends and close friends have had Todd apart of their big day, and no one I know has ever regretted it, but actually turn around and recommend him to others. Thanks Todd!

Wow! Todd is the best! He was professional, kind, and funny. He makes you feel comfortable instantly. All you could ask for!! Would recommend to everyone!

If you want to have an amazing experience with the person who is up front at your wedding Todd is the BEST! My wife and I loved our service with Todd, he made the ceremony about us and not him. He was funny, sincere, and did exactly what we wanted him to do. It's just a big day and having the right person leading the ceremony is key. I would say don't settle for someone who is just OK at weddings, get the best person for the job, I know we felt that way about choosing Todd. Thanks Todd!

Wedding ceremonies are usually boring. Finding a good officiant is everything though. Some try too hard to be the center of attention. Others just bore you death. Todd does neither and is the perfect mix of entertaining without overshadowing the people everyone is there to celebrate. I know dozens of couples who have used him and I always hear how grateful they are they chose him.

Having Todd officiate our wedding in 2022 was one of the best decisions we made for our big day. He brings both the heart *and* the professionalism needed for any wedding. Todd helped us craft our vows and ceremony in a way that was meaningful to us. And when he found out we were having trouble getting our venue locked down, he helped us get the perfect spot. Also -- he's just a cool, normal guy and in those in-between moments of a wedding (before, photos, after) everyone loved having him around; there was no awkwardness having a pastor hang out with our friends and family. We HIGHLY recommend him for any wedding.

We just moved to OC from another state beginning of 07/18 with 08/18/18 wedding date. At the same time my husband and I were looking for a church. We believe in God's Grace that we found MVC and got to meet Pastor Todd seeking advice for spiritual guidance for our union. Upon meeting him he gave us a deep and meaningful path and at the same time he was available on our planned wedding date and offered to marry us. From that meeting everything else went well with the planning. Todd's ceremony was beautiful and insightful for our life ahead. It was truly a blessed experience and we recommend Pastor Todd not just because how amazing was his ceremony but you can see in his heart that he cares. We continually grow at Mountain View Church with Todd as the pastor.

Todd did a fantastic job at our wedding! While the ceremony itself doesn't last too long in the grand scheme of the wedding, it is certainly once of the most important, elements and we we are so glad we chose Todd. Although many of our guests do not have any religious affiliation, we got so many positive comments about Todd and his message. He was professional enough to ease any nerves, kept the message succinct but touching, and tied just about the right amount of humor. Highly recommend!

We hired Pastor Todd Rodarmel to officiant our wedding and we could not be happier! We set up an appointment prior to our wedding to meet him and go over the ceremony details. We instantly knew Todd was the one for us. During the initial meeting, Todd explained the words he planned on using during our ceremony, as well as additional prayers he could state to enhance the religious aspect. Todd truly made our ceremony unforgettable. So many of our guests raved about his performance. Even my dad said he was the first officiant that really grabbed his attention and he wanted him to keep speaking as he was so fascinated in the words he preached. Todd's humor was inventive and witty. Yet his words were so genuine. We are so happy we hired Pastor Todd and we will definitely recommend him to our loved ones. Todd is a true professional.

Todd is AMAZING! I called him a few weeks out from our wedding date, panicking because the officiant I originally booked, was not going to be able to officiate our wedding. Todd took over and executed flawlessly with little time to prep! He helped coordinate and plan the perfect ceremony for us! My husband brought children from a previous marriage, and Todd helped create a ceremony that incorporated all of us to unite us as one family. It's a memory I'll never forget. Thank you!!

Our wedding location had to be moved last minute due to the Thomas fire. Todd was referred to us by the original pastor we were going to use. We contacted him with only 7 days till our date and jumped on a call with him to discuss details. He was very organized and walked us through how the whole ceremony would look. We only had about a 30 minute consultation with him and on the day of the wedding he spoke as if he had known us so much longer than that. He arrived 30 minutes prior to the ceremony and met with both my husband and I separately. The whole ceremony was flawless and so comfortable. After he took care of getting witnesses to sign the marriage license and completing the paperwork so we didn’t have to. We really cannot thank him enough for stepping in last minute and putting so much thought into our special day. Todd, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Todd was the officiant for our wedding in October. He was absolutely wonderful!! We met with him a few months before the wedding and spent about an hour going over the ceremony and answering questions about our relationship so he could get to know us a bit. We were looking for a religious officiant, and Todd definitely fit the bill. But I also think he is super flexible and bases his words on what you want for your wedding, which we loved. When it came time for the wedding, we had no doubts he would do an excellent job and he definitely did! He was so good, in fact, that a couple guests asked us if he was an actor we hired! As far as pricing goes, I definitely think you get what you pay for. We probably spent a bit more on this than we had originally planned, but I can absolutely say it was worth every penny! It was a seamless process with him! I can't wait to see our wedding video, as I'm sure some of his words will be in it! Don't hesitate to have Todd be a part of your wedding!!

Rev. Todd did a great job. He is very relaxed yet polished, and did a lovely, simple Christian ceremony. He added a touch of humor here and there, and definitely helped put us at ease. I believe he added to the loveliness of our wedding. He offered to help us with other aspects of the wedding such as musicians. We ultimately booked a harpist instead, but I was thankful that Rev. Todd was available to give guidance in other areas, too. There were people who were less expensive to officiate, but Rev. Todd was worth the money. It was important to me to have a Christian ceremony, which he did beautifully without it feeling overwhelming or heavy. Great job!

After our initial consultation, my fiancé and I were confident that Todd was the right person to officiate our ceremony. He has a very professional/experienced demeanor that is balanced by a calmness and great sense of humor. We worked with Todd to customize our ceremony and he seamlessly integrated it all - I am SO pleased with how everything went. We received tons of compliments regarding Todd from our guests - they all appreciated his message on the "Three Kinds of Love" and thought he had a great presence. It was a pleasure working with Todd - Highly recommended!

Pastor Todd was such a gift to us on our special day. I believe the spirit of it all was so well delivered, funny, and light-hearted! I think we did such a great job giving glory to God, yet not alienating any of non-religious or non-Christian guests. It was the kind of ceremony language that made everyone happy, which is so difficult to do. Most importantly, it made us happy to have Pastor Todd with us on our special day. Thank you again, Todd!! I can’t recommend him enough!

When my husband and I were deciding on an officiant, we began asking around and were referred to Todd. Thanks to our friends for the referral because we found the right guy! Todd was polished, open minded, helpful and made the entire process easy. We met with him prior to the wedding to ensure we were a match for each other and we loved him. Since our wedding, I've had several guests comment on what a great job he did. Thanks Todd!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Todd was the perfect choice to officiate our wedding this past April. He was a class act and so pleasant to work with! Planning a cross-country wedding is not easy, but he always made himself available for video chats to help us through the process. He was the perfect combination of sentimental, spiritual, and silly and had the entire ceremony memorized! He was able to help us create a meaningful wedding ceremony and people still compliment us to this day on our choice! Thank you so much, Todd!

Our family and friends are still talking about what a great job Todd did officiating our wedding!!! Todd has an amazing way of making everyone feel comfortable, from our first meeting to our wedding day. Our ceremony was everything we wanted it to be, the perfect amount of love and laughter and a great biblical foundation. Thank you Todd for being such a big part of our special day!

Todd was amazing! He worked with us every step of the way to create a custom ceremony that really represented us as a couple. He was a true professional in every way, leading an impeccable ceremony embodying the perfect combination of sincerity and lightheartedness. We even had many friends and family tell us that it was the best ceremony they had ever been to! We cannot express our gratitude enough to Todd! Highly recommend!!!

Rev. Todd did an extraordinary job celebrating our wedding. He made everyone feel comfortable and incorporated everything we asked in our ceremony. It seemed as if he was a family friend, because of the way he got to know us. He eased our nerves and led us through the ceremony without a glitch. Everyone asked us how we knew him because they were so impressed with him. He told us to call him anytime, before and after the wedding if we needed. This was a destination wedding, so finding an officiant was tough, but we absolutely found the right person in Rev. Todd. I would highly recommend him.I want to go to his church just to hear him speak again!

We live in Las Vegas and were having a destination wedding in Temecula, CA. While our ceremony is/was outside at Lake Oak Meadows, having a Christian ceremony with a pastor was very important to us. Seeing as how we attend church in Las Vegas, not Southern California, finding the right officiant for our wedding was a very important part of the actual ceremony itself, if not THE most important part of the ceremony. After a few unsuccessful emails and phone calls with local churches around the Temecula and Murrieta area, we found Todd here on Wedding Wire. Todd was on vacation in Italy when we initially contacted him and he still reached out to us and replied very promptly. When he returned we set up a time to FaceTime "meet" since we were in Vegas and he was in SoCal. The meeting went great. He ran us through a sample version of his ceremony and it brought tears to both of our eyes. We instantly knew he was our guy. Throughout the coming months when we needed anything, Todd continued to very helpful with planning the order of the service, instructing us how to obtain a marriage license in California, etc... Finally it was the day of the wedding. Todd's officiating was awesome. All of our families and friends, Christian and non-Christian alike, absolutely loved the ceremony. As did we. It was funny, sweet, sincere, uplifting, everything it needed to be. We would be remiss if we failed to mention that It was NOT cool that day in Temecula. 90+ degrees and Todd stood in a black suit outside in direct sunlight like a champion during the 25 minute ceremony and seemed completely un-phased by the heat and how uncomfortable he must have felt. Following the ceremony Todd took our marriage license and mailed it in to the State of California for us. A huge benefit and help since we had so much other stuff to worry about packing up and keeping track of before we returned to Las Vegas. Absolutely recommend him. Wonderful way to start our marriage.

Finding the right person to marry my husband Jarred and I, at first, seemed like a pretty difficult task, seeing how Jarred and I do not go to church. I had about 3 months to plan the wedding and the first week I was wondering how I could possibly find someone, and not just anybody, but someone special, to truly convey the depth of our love and make our ceremony very personal. After researching a ton, I came across Todd Rodarmel, known as the OC Wedding Guy. After reading his bio and finding out he was happily married for 27 years, we had to meet with him. Hands down, BEST DECISION!!! Jarred and I instantly connected with him. We were laughing, smiling, just bonding with his energy!!!! He is very honest, experienced and down to earth. His demeanor and personality is friendly, upbeat and his smile is contagious!! It's like we could just feel the happy aura in the room when we met and how much he truly loves marriage!! He REALLY believes in it and his knowledge/life lessons on marriage are undeniably meaningful and we 100% agreed with them. Jarred and I just had our amazing ceremony at the Monarch Beach Resort in Dana Point, August 6, 2016! It was the best day of my life! Todd was incredible! He met with me before the ceremony, I was just happy as can be, he brought that positive energy and I was ready to see him at the altar beside Jarred. Todd had our family and friends laughing, crying and all the greatest feelings in between. He brought our love to life and intertwined details of our life that made the ceremony unbelievably perfect. The ceremony was the absolute most important part of the wedding for us and we are beyond grateful that we chose Todd to marry us!! We HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!! Please take our advice, he is amazing. He helps guide you through the entire ceremony, step by step, with ease. His flow and patience was flawless. He truly loves marrying others, I'd say it's actually a GIFT of his. Natural and happy! Thank you Todd!!!!!

I got more compliments on our officiant than any other aspect of our wedding. Todd was so great and incorporated all the elements we had asked for. I don't know how many times I got asked how long we've known Todd for (we met once on Skype) because it seemed like we all knew each other for years. Our ceremony was perfect and not a thing could have been better =)

We couldn’t be happier we chose Todd to officiate our wedding. In fact, the first time we went to his church we knew he would have to marry us. The ceremony was my favorite part of the entire day thanks to him. The message was received by every guest and I could literally see love blossoming all over again in the couples that attended. There is perfect balance in his message and touches on all the important parts of the institution of marriage. It’s hard to express the gratitude we have for him. If you are hesitant, don’t be, he will take care of everything and make your special day more exceptional than you could have imagined.

Todd Rodarmel is absolutely amazing. From the first time we sat down with him to our wedding day, we couldn't be happier with our decision to have Todd as our officiant. All of our guests were so happy with his message and overall persona. He was perfect for our atmosphere, it was like he was part of the family. Honestly, I am beyond thankful that Todd was able to be apart of our wedding day. His words are so inspiring, genuine, and kind. We are so excited to begin married life officiated by such an amazing person.

Todd was simply amazing at our wedding! When my husband and I started planning our wedding we knew we wanted a simple ceremony, nothing to long but still had everything you would want to be said in a ceremony. Since we were planning a destination wedding we had to search for an officiant through online and reviews. Once we found Todd's website and listened to his intro video we basically knew he was perfect! We watched a couple of videos of weddings he has done and thought he said the most perfect ceremony's and had a great speaking voice. It was great that I was able to do a Skype call with him since we don't live in the area and he went through the whole ceremony with me and it was perfect! Almost no changes had to be done. Once the wedding day came around it went exactly as planned and we got nothing but compliments from all of our guests on how great of an officiant he is! We are so happy we choose Todd for our wedding and can't imagine having anyone else. Our ceremony was so perfect and beautiful. It will be something we will remember forever. We recommend Todd for anyone getting married and needs an officiant! If your planning a destination wedding like we did he made the process very easy and he will make your ceremony something people will talk about forever! Thank you so much Todd for being so great!

My husband and I had spent some time interviewing different officiants and we were thrilled when we found Pastor Todd after he was referred to me by someone at work. We met Todd one time at a time and place that was convenient for us and we knew right away he was the perfect officiant for our very diverse family and friends mix. We wanted a simple ceremony with a Christian undertone but also entertaining and humorous elements - Todd was perfect and everyone raved about how perfect the ceremony was.

Pastor Todd did a wonderful job of making our ceremony memorable and meaningful while still keeping it to about 20 minutes. Many of our our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the ceremony he performed for us. He listened to what what is important to us and incorporated those requests to fit our beliefs. It is the most important part of the day and it matters who you choose, that being said we are glad we chose him.

Pastor Todd did such an amazing job at our wedding! He exceeded every expectation. I would highly recommend him for destination weddings in California, because he is flexible, professional, and when you meet you really get to know each other. My husband and I got married in Laguna Beach at the Surf and Sand Resort, but live in Alaska. Email correspondence with him went amazing, and although we didn't finalize our vow and ceremony choices until less than one week before, he was very kind and responded right away. Everyone loves our ceremony because he made it light, romantic, and most of all he really touched on many aspects of marriage and Christianity. He really made the ceremony about God, because that's all it should be about. We loved our wedding ceremony, and can't wait to keep in touch with Todd for many years to come.

We were delighted to have Todd be our pastor and officiate our wedding ceremony in Laguna Beach. He was the perfect blend of lightheartedness and humor with the seriousness of love, marriage, vows and commitment. His message was inspirational, spiritual, intimate and touching for both of us and everyone who attended. He made our ceremony personal for us while inviting our family and friends to be a part. Everyone felt that they were a special part in celebrating our marriage which Todd communicated perfectly in word and action. Throughout our reception, we heard from every guest on how much they loved the ceremony, what Todd had said and how it had personal meaning for them. Todd is extremely gifted with speaking and puts all people at ease with his words, manner, officiating and drawing people in. He was very easy to work with, responsive and extremely helpful in preparing us for our day. We could not be more happy to have chosen Todd to marry us! His message and demonstration of love and marriage will forever stay with us.

Reverend Todd Rodarmel officiated our wedding in San Clemente and he did an outstanding job. Todd incorporated God and scripture, while also engaging our guests and making them laugh. The ceremony was so touching, my husband and I will remember it forever. Prior to our wedding he was always easy to get ahold of and was there if we needed help with our vows or anything. Todd is professional and personable, I highly recommend him.

Todd is handsome. Very personable and low key. He is perfect - non denomination officiant. He made our service stress free, personal and joyous. We got married on a Wednesday - so we got a nominal break in the fee. He's a spiritual and darling guy - can't say any more! P.S. He has a loving marriage personally - and he has great advice and experience. Listen up !!!

We hired Todd as our Officiant in our wedding that we just had in Dana Point, CA. Before hiring Todd we read his reviews online and noticed that all of his reviews were 5 stars and everyone had awesome things to say about Todd. We scheduled a pre-interview with him and he asked us questions on how we met, how long we've been together etc. We explained to Todd that we didn't want a boring ceremony, but we wanted a fun not super religious ceremony that had a sense of humor to it. Todd role played the ceremony to us and it was no longer than 13-14 mins. We knew that Todd was the right choice and hired him to be our Officiant. Todd arrived at our wedding on time and delivered an amazing ceremony that ALL of our guests were complementing us on afterwards. He made sure to keep everyone laughing throughout the ceremony which kept the energy high. Many of our guests asked if we found him straight out of Hollywood because he was that good. If you are looking for a wedding officiant in Orange County, Todd is definitely worth the investment and does a fantastic job at setting the tone for the rest of the night.

We found Todd online and hired him for our wedding in August. Todd was amazing from start to finish. We have gotten so many compliments from our family and friends about how perfect the ceremony was. My husband and I are not religious but most of our families are and Todd was able to find the perfect balance for us to keep everyone happy. Not to mention he added the just the right amount of humor to keep the ceremony from getting stale. We would definitely recommend Todd.

Todd was a great Officiant- I was having issues with finding someone for the ceremony and I was literally one week from the wedding. He was very helpful and did an amazing job.
