Sun and Sand Wedding Officiant

oes a fabulous job tailoring the ceremony to you as a couple. He had us write about each other and shared during the ceremony which added a great touch. We both cried. A lot. Gust even came all the way out to our venue for the rehearsal that took about 5 minutes. Would highly recommend!!

o our questions and sent us several drafts of our wedding ceremony for our review weeks before the event. On the day of wedding he arrived early and worked out all the last necessary details with out DJ and the ceremony went off without a hitch. We received several compliments from guests on Gust's ceremony because it was so sweet, funny, and personalized. The length was perfect (about 30 minutes with the sand ceremony). I highly recommend Gust's services.

ss by video chatting, keeping us up on a timeline for what he needed, and being prompt and helpful throughout the process. If you need someone I would definitely reach out to him!

ng our two cultures together - Christian and Persian. Planning a wedding from out of state added another layer to the wedding planning. However, Gust put us at ease and spent time hearing our story and what we wanted for our ceremony. Gust had a great understanding and knowledge base of each culture and what was needed to blend the two cultures together. We can not thank Gust enough! Without him our wedding ceremony dreams would not have come alive.

I to find an officiant that would be as excited as we were about our marriage. To take the proper time to get to know us and our relationship. We spoke several times on the phone and met in person to go over what we wanted for our ceremony. He was open to our ideas but also gave many awesome suggestions to make our ceremony unique. Most of all he spoke our wedding ceremony from the heart, because of the proper time he took to get to know us, I feel like he was able to absolutely nail what we were going for in our ceremony and so much more! Our ceremony was magical and we have Gusto to thank!" -Bride 9.14.19 "Greg and I want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the beautiful and touching ceremony you did for Carson and Charles. It was so obvious to everyone how much you care about what you do and how moved you were at this wedding. Your excitement for and about Carson and Charles and for this sacred piece of land moved us greatly. Your words and the way you spoke to us all was the highlight of the day. On behalf of Greg and I and my entire family, thank you so very much." -Mother of the Bride

st put us all at ease with his calm and uncomplicated direction. He was always on time, available to chat, and willing to go the extra mile on our love story. I definitely recommend Gust for anyone looking for the perfect Officiant!

apt to any changes made at the rehearsal for the wedding day. He not only was great for my client, but also was wonderful to work with as a wedding professional! I highly recommend Gust! You won’t be disappointed!

e and really helped make the ceremony unique to us by telling our story. Gust walked us through the whole day and made us feel so ready and excited. You will not be disappointed with how caring and devoted he is towards helping a couple have the perfect wedding and marriage.

like we have known him for years. We met and skyped with Gust for months leading up to the wedding and he created the most PERFECT and personal ceremony for us. Our wedding was truly the most amazing ceremony and we continue to hear from faily and friends that it was the best ceremony they have ever been to!! Gust made everyone feel so welcome and truly made everyone who attended the ceremony feel like they knew us and got to see into a very personal side of our relationship. If you are looking to hire an officiant and aren't sure where to start, look no further, Gust is your guy!!! We are so happy we found him, he truly made our day so so special. Thank you, Gust!!

worked with our personalities and gave us a questionnaire to put together a personalized ceremony script with multiple drafts. Every single guest I've talked to mentioned how amazing he was at the ceremony. Thank you so much Gust for making it wonderful and meaningful!

even though he ended out having a family emergency) and also write vows that were very much so personalized. He was on time, made us feel comfortable/genuinely cared for, and didn't forget anything we requested to make our ceremony special. Thank you, Gust!

s. Through the process he made sure we were comfortable with the script and continued to assure us (the bride and groom) that everything would be fine. We were quite nervous prior to the wedding and Gust made sure we were well rehearsed, answered any questions we had and again assured that everything would turn out great. We included our son in the ceremony and Gust helped us make it meaningful. Gust arrived early to venue and took a moment to meet our family members and again check in with us to let us know that everything was going to turn out great! We received very positive feedback from our friends and family regarding the ceremony.

wedding, he did a fantastic job, very personable and his script was written beautifully. Not a dry eye in the room. My niece couldn’t have selected a better person to officiate. Thank you, Gusto!

t time getting to know my husband and I and our story, and he made the rehearsal fun and helped us make sure we knew exactly what to do on the big day. He arrived early the day of the wedding to make sure things were set, and during the ceremony itself, he made it so personal and beautiful. All our guests were extremely impressed! Highly recommend Gusto!

enominational service that would be short, about us, and not say anything other than "I do". Gust was incredibly accommodating and was actually able to pull this off. It was a beautiful service and exactly how we wanted it. Thank you, Gust for everything you did for us! We would certainly recommend him to anyone who wants something unique or traditional or both.

y. You were thoughtful, responsive, and put time and dedication into our ceremony to make it unique and special to us. We are so lucky to have had you apart of our special day. Thank you!

ound Gust online and he saved me! I called we SPOKE AND HE MADE ME FEEL AT EASE RIGHT AWAY!

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND CALLING HIM KIND CARING SUPPORTIVE AND EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL.

d he told our story so well, you wouldn't know we hadn't met prior to our engagement.

elmed. From the rehearsal walk through to the very end of the ceremony, Gusto felt like an old friend that was with us from the beginning, keeping the mood light while never breaking character. Going forward, I will be recommending Gusto to anyone and everyone that asks.

parent and makes working with him an absolute pleasure. He was immediately responsive to all correspondence and met with us and spoke with us several times ensuring all aspects of our ceremony. He arrived early and met with our family and received many compliments from our guests. We would recommend him with high regard to anyone looking for a wedding officiant.

ny. His inspirational words made this important moment in our lives even more special.

yone to marry us—we wanted someone who we felt extremely comfortable with, who would be engaging for our guests to listen to, and who would take an interest in our “story” and how we envisioned our ceremony. We attend a large non-denominational Christian church, and haven’t formed a personal relationship with any of the pastors there. Further complicating things, we grew up with different religious backgrounds (Catholic and Reformed) and didn’t want to end up with a ceremony that stuck closely with one faith while excluding the other. Not knowing where else to look, we began to search online, and that’s when we came across Gusto. We began our first Skype “meeting” not knowing what to expect, but by the end of our talk with Gusto, we knew we had found the right person to marry us! Right away, we could see how warm and caring he is, and how much thought he puts into every ceremony he performs. In addition to designing our wedding ceremony script together, we also met with Gusto for several pre-marital coaching sessions. We can’t recommend these sessions enough! Gusto’s approach is tailored to each couple he works with; we got to choose many of the topics we dealt with, and we found it very beneficial to our relationship. He got us talking about some important subjects, and led us through a discussion in a very comfortable way. We never felt judged or anxious during these sessions; in fact, after leaving each one we would talk about what a good time we had, and how much we enjoyed spending time with Gusto. Through these coaching sessions, we not only strengthened our relationship as a couple, but we also formed a close friendship with Gusto. When it came time to write our ceremony script, we really appreciated Gusto’s flexibility. We felt strongly that we wanted to design our own ceremony, including choosing readings and selecting which elements to include. Gusto was completely supportive of us taking the lead, while making sure that we had the guidance we needed. He was there for us every step of the way, including leading us through our ceremony rehearsal. He had us practice all the little details, such as the transitions between different ceremony elements, which helped our wedding to flow much more smoothly than it might have otherwise. On the wedding day, we felt very relaxed about the ceremony, because we knew Gusto had everything under control. His delivery of our script was wonderful, and our friendship with him made the day much more meaningful. Everyone raved about him afterwards, and what a beautiful job he did with our ceremony. We would HIGHLY recommend working with Gusto to any couples looking for an officiant, he is one of a kind and a very special person!

a Catholic, we both wanted to find someone who would honor different traditions while upholding the sincerity and importance of the event. We had no problem finding people who would just read from a script and do whatever you want, but we wanted more than that. We wanted someone who understood and respected the significance of this important day and who would bring spirituality to the table as well. Gust was all of this and more. He helped us develop the perfect ceremony and after meeting with him the first time to go over it we both felt so relieved and happy that we found him because he was exactly who we were looking for. Thank you Gust!

ouching ceremony. And since our wedding day was about 20 degrees warmer than the average projected temperature and we got married in a greenhouse, we really appreciated the ceremony only being about 15 minutes. Not too long, not too short, with lots of touching stories personal to us. Thanks, Gust!

nd those standing up with us liked him as well. On our wedding day 06/06/15 the good lord gave us a beautiful sunshine day and our wedding was awesome, Gust did a wonderful job presenting us to our company along with introducing us as a couple and too the Lord. Thank you Gust and we will recomend you to others as well.

His efforts resulted in a stress-free and memorable wedding day. He did a great job with our vows, as he personalized them to really suit us. He really takes a personal note to get to know you as a couple and individually as well. Our day was just perfect! We are very thankful that he was our Officiant!!

uld have dreamed of. Everyone commented on how personalized our ceremony and vows were and that they were so perfect for us. He has a wonderful personality and speaking voice that just made our ceremony perfect. I would recommend him to a bride.

he was more than early to the ceremony and everything went smoothly, so I would give him a thumbs up.

ional' aspects of a wedding ceremony into ours. Gust met us at a coffee shop and talked us through samples of his work. He asked us about a lot of things that we never even thought of before. Gust is friendly, easy to get along with, and a good communicator. He incorporated everything we asked for into our ceremony, even though we only gave him a few months to arrange it. Gust even changed things around at my request a week before the wedding! Gust worked well with our wedding coordinator at the rehearsal and our ceremony. He is a great choice for an officiant, especially if you desire to break from tradition a bit.

a heavily religious wedding ceremony and he worked really hard to incorporate stories from our lives together and it was really neat what he came up with! He will tell you "I have never been late to an event, and I don't plan to anytime soon" and that was absolutely true! He was great!

as beautiful.

ferent and made especially for you. They were fantastic and helped us throughout the planning processes, the rehearsal and on the day of. Thanks Gust and Michelle for a fantastic florida wedding, It couldn't have been more perfect and you were an enormous part f that.

y kind and compassionate man and he did a fabulous job performing our ceremony.
