Rev. Mark did a wonderful job officiating our wedding. He not only showed up on-time, was professional and did a great job the day of the wedding, but he met with us several times ...
prior to our big day. He had no problem incorporating things we wanted into the ceremony like: communion, prayer, a surprise reading for my now-husband and we even asked him to share a short gospel message. He was fun and personable and got to know us. I would say we would use him again...but the goal is not to. ;)
