Rev. Brian (at Your Mythic Life)

few officants actually have experience with the ceremony. Not only was Rev. Brian well versed in the handfasting ceremony but many other wedding ceremonies from varied traditions as well. He also took the time to get to know us as a couple so that he could provide us with a personal ceremony that met our needs. All of our friends and families raved about the ceremony and how memorable it was and that they learned something new. I highly recommend Rev. Brian if you are planning a wedding ceremony for an interfaith family or if you are looking for a ceremony that stands out from the crowd.

oyed the fact that he personalized the entire ceremony for my wife and I . Thank you so much again.

rst we were at a loss. I found Reverend Brian on The Knot and loved his enthusiasm for and vast knowledge of global spirituality of all kinds that seemed to encompass so many faiths and traditions, old and new. We wanted to make sure that our ceremony tied in earth elements, nature themes and subtle pre-Christian themes while highlighting personal elements about our relationship and making sure that all of the major religions were acknowledged in a way that felt inclusive and full of love. Reverend Brian walked us through his process and ways of working and we set up several Skype calls as we lived in Manhattan at the time before the wedding with grueling schedules and weren’t able to make I‎t to PA. He gave us online surveys to conduct individually to help us prepare for marriage, enrich our connection and understanding of ourselves and our relationship and to provide some premarital counseling. We found this process to be insightful and helpful to opening up lines of communication and reflection. I‎t reinforced our strengths and it was a fun and positive experience that I would recommend for any couple! He then held several meetings with us both over Skype and in person to make sure that all of the wording was to our liking, go over readings and offer ideas and, rituals and content when we were unsure of what should be included. We decided to do a handfasting ritual and he did a great job of explaining the reason and history behind I‎t. About a week prior to the wedding he sent us both individual questionnaires to help him to weave ‘our story’ for the ceremony which was meant to be a surprise for each of us on the day of the wedding. We sent them back and tweaked our vows with him while he helped us to keep them a surprise to the other person but made sure they followed a similar personal, affectionate tone without one seeming too different from the other. On the day of the wedding he arrived early to meet with everyone, go over the plan and explain a few things. His ceremony was so perfectly on point for what we were hoping for. He was a storyteller, a source of knowledge, a leader, a consecrator of the space and so much more... the whole ceremony was quite entertaining with a lot of personality! The nature theme was woven throughout the whole ceremony without crossing any lines to seem odd to people of various faiths. The personal stories had the whole room laughing at how perfectly we were characterized and we giggled to hear our own first impressions of each other told in this light. He kept a copy of our vows so that we could read them unaided and handled every element of the ceremony as a true and delightful professional. I must have been told a hundred times afterwards that I‎t was the best, most personal and beautiful ceremony that anyone had ever witnessed! We were over the moon ecstatic by how I‎t all came together under the knowledgeable and charismatic leadership of Reverend Brian! Thank you thank you thank you Reverend Brian!!!! We will forever be grateful to you for how special you made our wedding day!

He made everything easy for us and provided us with a lot of insight on our relationship with his questionnaires. Highly recommend.

ational. His personality and sense of humor assisted in making it an enjoyable ceremony. The survey he had us take was very informative, giving us insight to areas of opportunity, areas of strength as well as confirming what we already knew about our relationship.

ally shone through and we highly recommend him.

was beautiful, heartfelt and just perfect, and our guests just raved about the ceremony! If you choose to work with Brian (and you should) , make sure you ask him about the 'Love Story' he personalizes for every ceremony. A perfect day all around!

t we felt about each other and he then incorporated that in to the service. Rev Brian took our wishes into consideration and gave us exactly the type of service we wanted. He was very open in what he had planned and walked us through every step of the way. Where we felt something needed to be changed he was able to do that as well. Rev Brian is a genuinely caring and open individual. He gave us a day that we will always remember fondly and we are sure he will do the same for you.
