ne, he made all of the changes we requested without hesitation! Patrick performed our ceremony and he was wonderful. He was friendly and smiling the entire time. All of our guests commented on how great the ceremony was. After the ceremony, Patrick gave my husband and I a small gift - it was a little framed piece of artwork with our names and date of marriage in it!! It looks like he might have made it himself. Regardless, it meant so much to us. Neither me or my husband are religious at all, and we did not once feel judged or pressured to have a religious ceremony. I would highly recommend them to anyone with an upcoming wedding!

Philly Wedding Co. is affordable and they get back to you in a timely manner so you are not sitting there stressing last minute.

Some people say that Disney World is the happiest place on earth. I beg to differ. Being a Wedding Officiant, I can honestly say that there is no happier place on earth than being able to stand there with a couple so much in love that they want to spend eternity as “Husband and Wife”. Every ceremony that I perform brings me great joy and happiness. I am a believer that being in love should not be an expensive proposition. So, if you are willing to share your happy day with me, I promise to give you a truly memorable wedding service. I look forward to hearing from you.
