Russ Sorensen Wedding Officiant

Rev Russ was professional, attentive, engaging, and flexible. Not to mention he's not outlandishly priced. He crafted our vows the way we wanted - delivering a memorable ceremony including details of how we met & about us as a couple. Even months later, people are still complimenting us on how engaging of a ceremony we had. Rev Russ knows his stuff and we high recommend him.

Our ceremony was awesome thanks to Rev Russ. He is so easy to work with and knows his stuff. You can't go wrong with him.

Did a spectacular job. We aren't exactly bible thumpers, but Russ gave the ceremony that extra twist at the end of the punch that we needed spiritually. Have YOU seen your friend's weddings get officiated by an underqualified old friend? Rev Russ will fix it! Do ask for read receipts with emails and follow up, sometimes the back office here doesn't see every email.

I can’t say enough about Rev. Russ. He is very thorough and took the time to get to know my husband I before we actually booked with him. We actually had someone back our right as we were signing contracts and I truly feel it was meant to be. He has you complete lots of documentation that helps guide your conversation with your partner on what your wishes are and for him to build your ceremony. His wife is very responsive to emails and so is he. He made our ceremony funny, interactive and simple , which is exactly what we wanted. He doesn’t push religious beliefs onto you and makes your ceremony about YOU.

My husband and I cannot thank Rev. Russ enough for helping make one of the best days of our lives even more special! From start to finish Rev. Russ and his Team made the entire planning process seamless. The day of the wedding our ceremony was personable, emotional, joyous and spiritual with a dash of humor. There were no dull moments and our guests were engaged from beginning to end. Would highly recommend!

My husband and I believe that we were drawn together by love and our meeting and falling in love was no mere coincidence. We wanted our wedding ceremony to reflect our love for each other and to celebrate the magical journey that brought us together. We wanted our special day to be uniquely ours and to set the stage for our future life together as husband and wife. Because of this, we wanted to find the perfect wedding officiant. We searched, we interviewed, and eventually we found Rev. Russ. Our patience paid off. Like so many things in our relationship, we feel like we were ultimately drawn to Rev. Russ. The first thing we noticed was that he was truly interested in us! He didn’t start pitching his services… He listened and the conversation flowed effortlessly and made our decision easy… We hired Rev. Russ to officiate our wedding. Ultimately, we feel that hiring Rev. Russ was the best decision we made for our wedding day. Our ceremony was unforgettable. Nobody talks about our venue, our DJ, or our food… But they share with us is how much they loved our ceremony. The reason for that is simple… Rev. Russ was awesome. Thanks Russ! Thanks for being a part of our ongoing love story and making our wedding ceremony the highlight of our day and a cherished forever memory.

Rev Russ is the best officiant we spoke to during our planning process. He was worth every single dollar and more. My husband and I were so open to how our ceremony would look, especially because we are very non-traditional, so all we asked of Russ was for a heartwarming and intimate ceremony. He helped us through the process, spoke with us as many times as we needed, and made sure to take all our needs and questions into account when crafting our ceremony. And when I tell you Russ made the perfect ceremony for us, I really mean it. I’m not one to get emotional, but I cried (and bonus points because he had a tissue on hand). He presented our personal love story in a way that really spoke to the heart of our relationship and made our guests feel that love with us. He really heard our requests and delivered beyond our wildest dreams… If you are looking for the best officiant possible for your wedding, you NEED to book Rev Russ, you will be glad you did!

Truly the BEST! Rev Russ was the first and only officiant we spoke to - from the moment we met via phone, we connected, and we knew she was the perfect fit to marry us. We have been together for a long time and have known each other 10+ years, so it was vital to have someone special and kind marry us. We wanted to incorporate specific things into our ceremony and make sure our families and guests truly felt the love and Rev Russ made this happen.

Russ was the best choice we made for our ceremony! He did an awesome job at crafting our "love story". It was so special to hear, and I can tell that he took time and care to make sure the ceremony reflected "us". After the ceremony, many guests asked us how we knew him, they were shocked we only met him when we chose him as our officiant! We would highly recommend Rev Russ as your officiant as he will be sure to make your ceremony unforgettable.

Rev Russ made our ceremony feel so personal and like he knew us for years. Our family and friends were shocked to hear that we didn’t know him prior to our ceremony. He made everything feel so personal not like a stranger was part of your ceremony. He was very professional and responsive to messages.

Our wedding which was officiated by Rev Russ was totally awesome. Everything about it was perfect. We could not have asked for a better ceremony. Rev Russ is a crowd pleaser, but best of all he pleased us. Thanks Russ

Rev. Russ was great! He was personable and really took the time to get to know us as a couple during the planning process. My new husband and I really liked that he sent us a relationship bio that asked us each individually questions about our relationship and shared some of those moments during our ceremony. We received many positive compliments from our guests about Rev Russ! He was perfect and brought the right amount of love with funny moments! Rev Russ was super helpful the entire time, especially the day of and at the rehearsal.

Rev. Russ was so great to work with at our wedding on Saturday. He did great during our ceremony and rehearsal with a very personalized ceremony.

Thanks to Reverend Russ who made our ceremony so incredibly memorable! All of our guests raved and loved how he was able to combine our two cultures into a seamless ceremony. Adopting Catholic and Hindu traditions to make the day special for both of our families. His sense of humor also made the ceremony enjoyable for the wedding party. I'd recommend Rev. Russ for anyone looking to make their wedding ceremony extra special.

Our wedding ceremony, thanks to Rev Russ, was awesome. Russ made the whole planning process easy, and the resulting ceremony was just what we wanted and, at the same time, far exceeded our expectations…it was a work of genius. From the beginning, our guests knew that our ceremony was going to be something special. Russ put everyone at ease as he radiated a beautiful energy of love and kindness as he worked his magic.

I have attended several my friend’s weddings. After our engagement, I paid careful attention to the wedding ceremonies that we attended. You see, I had a vision of my dream ceremony, and I was underwhelmed by what I was witnessing. The ceremonies were dull, boring, and meaningless. After attending these ceremonies, I was concerned. Could my dream wedding be brought to reality? With that in mind, we began a thorough search for our officiant. Eventually we found Rev Russ and it did not take long for us to realize that our search was over. We found our officiant…Rev Russ Sorensen. Boy, did Rev Russ deliver. Our ceremony was absolutely wonderful. It was my dream come true. Our ceremony was beautiful, meaningful, inspirational, and emotional. It was fun and at the same time sacred. I can attest that we had several engaged couples in attendance and after the ceremony, they either found Rev Russ after the ceremony to meet him and get a card or called us later for his contact info. We are so grateful to Rev Russ – Our ceremony was indeed a dream come true. We were the center of attention, our love story was shared, and our friends and family gained a deep understanding our love for each other. Well done Rev Russ!

After we selected our venue, we ask our planner about an officiant. She asked us about our dream ceremony and after we shared, she pulled out a list of 20 or so officiants. She took her pen and crossed out all the names except one…Rev Russ. When we got home, we reached out to him and set an appointment to meet. Our meeting was great. We hired him immediately. We are glad that we did. The whole journey with Rev Russ was great. The ceremony was awesome. Everyone loved it. Thanks so much Rev Russ. Rev Russ is a fantastic officiant and a wonderful person.

After we got engaged, finding the right wedding officiant was a top priority for us. We asked friends and family, searched the web and one name kept coming up...Rev Russ! We feel that we were guided in finding Rev Russ. Our wedding ceremony was perfect for us. Let us guide you to select Rev Russ as your officiant – you will be happy that you did.

We saw Rev Russ at my cousin’s wedding. We immediately approached him about performing our ceremony. We met with him for a consultation and booked our date. From start to finish, it was a great experience. He is a good listener and was able to discern what we wanted and guide us in selecting the various elements of the ceremony. The most wonderful part of the planning process was the completion of our relationship biography’s’. From our contribution, he created a wonderful narrative that he shared at our ceremony. It touched the hearts and funny bones of everyone in attendance. Wow?

We decided to have a small intimate ceremony before our big shindig in 2021. There was disappointment with the delay, but our intimate ceremony with close family and friends turned out to be the best. Thank you, Rev Russ, for your kindness, flexibility, and professionalism. Our guests, both those present with us and via Zoom raved about the ceremony. It was beautiful, it was thrilling, it was sacred, it was joyous. It was, in a word…perfect.

He also provided us many different rituals ideas and we ended up choosing one we had never heard of before. Our friends and family all really enjoyed Russ and loved the ceremony!
