us. He was great before and during the wedding. You can tell he wants it to be a special, reverent, meaningful event. But he also added some fun and humor as well. It was a perfect balance and we were so happy! And an added bonus is he speaks both English and Spanish perfectly. (I honestly can't tell which is his native language - probably both. ;) ) Great job Kevin! Highly recommended!

ingful to us. We were a little hesitant to find someone online to do our wedding, but as soon as I spoke to Kevin it put my worries at ease. He is very professional, organized, kind, and easy to work with. With his customizable ceremony layout, we were able to come up with a personal, meaningful ceremony very easily. I would highly recommend his services to anyone, and I believe a couple of my wedding guests are now hoping to hire him for their weddings!

. If you can't meet you can talk on the phone or Skype. He asks you what you want and cater to what kind of wedding you want. He also have a preprinted list of vows, details and etc.. for you to choose for your wedding. He made it very easy for us think it was a first time getting married. I would definitely recommend him to someone I know getting married or for a vow renewal. Hint, Hint in 10 years.
