Reverend Don Goodrum-Wedding as You Wish

"We had the most perfect, low-key wedding thanks to Weddings As You Wish! From the start, we knew we wanted something simple and intimate, and he understood our vision completely. The ceremony was beautiful and personal—the officiant, Don Goodrum, wove our love story in so seamlessly. We wouldn't change a thing and are so grateful for a perfect, simple, and unforgettable day."

Don was absolutely amazing! We loved how he made our ceremony so personal. Everyone at our wedding loved him as well and was super impressed with how he led the ceremony. He even made the drive to Orange Beach to us from Florida! Awesome all the way around!

Don was wonderful! He helped us navigate getting our marriage license, printed our vows, and drove over an hour in the rain to marry us on the beach. He spoke beautiful words of encouragement and made our day truly special.

We did a destination wedding where all correspondents were done through email and phone. Everyone made everything easy, flawless, and PERFECT!! Don Goodrum performed the most intimate and special ceremony I could have ever imagined! Even though we had only known each other through phone and email, we felt Don had been our minister for years. He continues to be available to us for any counseling and relationship needs, which shows how much he cherishes his role in our wedding and unity. Don will forever be a part of our marriage and family!

Don officiated our wedding and did a great job! We asked Don to do a short, traditional, Christian ceremony, and he did just that! Don's communication was very professional, he told us everything we needed to know ahead of time. The ceremony was exactly what we were looking for! If you are looking for an officiant that will listen to your wants definitely hire Don!

Rev. Don provided us with a lovely wedding service, though I had several guests come up to me on my wedding day noting that he was not very professional before the service which was disappointing. In my own personal experience, he tracked me down flustered literal moments before my wedding when the coordinator was attempting to hide me before the start of the ceremony. He wasn't overly friendly to me or my bridal party about the marriage license and asked payment again which was apparently was previously discussed and taken care of with the wedding party prior.

Don was very cordial and professional throughout the entire process, including our pre-marital counseling. He answered our questions quickly and thoroughly and did a great job during our ceremony. Would highly recommend Don!

Reverend Don Goodrum was incredible! Such a nice intimate service on the beach for our 25th wedding anniversary vow renewal!

We are so happy in our decision to have Don marry us. He was very professional, well, spoken, funny, and kind. He was always very responsive when I had questions.

Don is a great guy. He answered all our questions and kept in contact with us to make sure everything was going according to plan. He did a great job performing our service and we would definitely recommend him to friends and family.

Reverend Don was an amazing officiant and I couldn't have asked for more from him! He worked with us from the start to finish and was available for questions at any time. We wrote our own vows and he helped us with both advice and our grammar, then he had them printed out for us too. He made the ceremony short and sweet to get our guests out of the summer heat and he truly made it a nice experience!

It was a pleasure meeting Reverend Goodrum. He was able to make our wedding ceremony feel relaxed and personalized. He was very helpful with our vows as well. We didn't have to worry about the rings or the marriage license. Vows were typed and handed to us so we didn't have to try to memorize them or stuff a piece of paper in our clothing. Everything ran smooth!

Don came recommended by 30aglow. From the beginning Don was so helpful, patient and very knowledgeable. He was quick to respond to us, very professional but yet very personable. He gave us great advice in writing our own vows. He offered to include a sand ceremony, which we had never heard of before. It truly made our vow renewal ceremony that much more memorable. We eloped 20 years ago and didn't have a typical wedding ceremony. Don made it feel as if we were getting married for the first time. We feel that Don went above and beyond to make it that much more special.
