Description of Services from Larry Williams
I work with each couple to detail a program that is unique, original and will fit your personality. Some couples want it simple, while others have a clear vision and discriminating tastes. Likewise, I will take the time to understand you (and the family dynamic) so the perfect ceremony is scripted to your satisfaction. We will discuss things like the use, or non use, of religious overtones spoken within the ceremony. Some couples enjoy spiritual references, while other couples wish to have few, if any.
Each consultation is an exploration to discover your sensitivity regarding this and expectations of the overall structure of the ceremony. While I consider myself non-denominational - I am most willing to include any number of traditions, ideas and cultural expressions that are important to you and your family.
I deliver a speaking style that is rich with experience while being warm and welcoming to all of your guests. On the day of the event, I will arrive approximately a half hour before your start time and coordinate with your wedding team. I will manage your wedding license, secure all on-site signatures and file all documents to make your marriage official and legal.
The Love Story Presentation & Parents Tribute
These original optional features are offered by nobody else. The Love Story Presentation is a captivating look inside your courtship told from your recollections. The Parents Tribute is a moving and unique tribute that honors their dedicated years of raising the two amazing people that stand before us. It’s a generational tribute that also mentions grandparents and others in your life.
CEREMONY MUSIC
I am proud to be the only area Officiant who can also supply music for your ceremony. This affordable add-on includes one-hour of service with the ceremony located within that hour. This includes a half hour of pre-ceremony music. The second half hour consists of the Bridesmaids & Brides March, wireless microphone for Larry Williams (Officiant) and then the hour will conclude with the Recessional March and more music if time allows. This music package will really compliment your ceremony.
CEREMONY REHEARSAL DIRECTION
As the area's ONLY certified Wedding Entertainment Director, I have great experience in directing your Ceremony Rehearsal. If you do not have a venue representative or wedding coordinator to do so, I am happy to offer this service. For a nominal charge, I can professionally coordinate the walk-through so everyone in the Wedding Party will know their roles, responsibilities and manner to which they will walk, stand and participate. My rehearsals are very thorough and of great help.

make it to town, but Larry was willing to meet us at any time. Our ceremony was beautiful and every bit of it was performed with great thought and care. My night was a magical one and I chose the perfect person to join my husband and I in matrimony. ❤️
Larry was amazing for us in both his officiant and DJ services. He was extremely kind, thorough, and flexible! We had some difficulties with our vendor the day of but Larry was the...
re to help us through it all and be flexible with the last minutes changes. His extensive experience also helped us greatly with things to do and consider we had not yet thought of. Definitely highly recommend!
Larry is an absolute professional and master of his craft. After seeing him in action at my now Sister in laws wedding we knew he had to book him for ours. New SIL had booked him f...
or the ceremony, ceremony music, and as the reception dj. Their ceremony was seamless and Larry made all announcements, kept the crowd engaged, laughing, and the dance floor packed. We booked him for all but the reception dj.(we had other plans for music)
Looking back, if I could do it over again I would have also booked him for the reception too. Don’t get me wrong my reception was awesome but Larry’s way with the crowd, personality, and overall event experience we saw at the SIL wedding would have made toasts, dances, and announcements much smoother.
He had excellent communication and attention to detail while we planned our ceremony. He walked us through every step of the way over several phone calls and texts. He even offered zoom and in person meet up. He really listened to what we wanted and offered great suggestions and creative things that made our ceremony one of a kind.
He was also more than happy answering questions and giving advice on all things wedding. He even talked me through(and calmed me down) lol when I was stressed planning other aspects of the wedding.
Our ceremony music experience was awesome. He had great suggestions on pairing different songs and the audio quality was great. He arrived early to set up and make sure everything was ready to go. The ceremony music package includes wireless mics, speakers, 30 minutes of pre ceremony music and perfectly timed processional, bridal walk and recessional songs.
We can’t thank Larry enough for making our day so special! We were married a month ago and I’m still hearing about how beautiful the ceremony was.
We highly recommend Larry for your special day. It’s true what they say, you do all this planning and the day flies by so quick. It is absolutely worth it to have a professional to ensure it is everything you wanted it to be.
Thanks Larry!

d within the ceremony at your choice. We got compliments left and right about how wonderful he was. He really spends time to get to know you and exactly what you want for your ceremony. He is timely with his responses and very truthful with his word. He has such a warm heart and passion for what he does. He was AMAZING! I am so blessed/grateful that we choose him as our officiant. You are lucky if he is able to officiate your wedding.

o finish. He has so much experience he was able to recommend and guide us where we needed it too - and it was so appreciated. We had multiple guests come up and ask us afterward if we had chosen Larry because he was a personal friend - they were shocked to learn that we found him online! I highly recommend letting Larry tell "your story" as a couple - our friends and family absolutely loved the way he brought everyone together with it. Choosing Larry is the easiest decision we made and it turned out perfectly!
Larry is amazing and makes sure that your ceremony is very custom to you. He offers things that a typical officiant does not. And he is great at improvising. My husband forgot the ...
