On the wedding day, Jim was not only wonderful with us, but also so warm and friendly with our families and friends!

Throughout the rest of the engagement, he was always easy to reach and answered all of the questions we had along the way. The rehearsal was incredibly helpful and Ed put everyone at ease and helped us all feel prepared for the actual wedding day.

We can't thank Ed enough for all he did to make our wedding so special and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional and experienced wedding officiant.

d be our officiant. He has a great personality, and really made us feel comfortable. He had lots of ideas for ceremonies, which was good since we didn't really know where to start! After we hired him and paid our deposit, he e-mailed us samples of ceremonies, readings, vows etc. This made it really easy to go over things at our own speed and figure out exactly what we wanted. He e-mailed us the first draft of our ceremony, and we could change anything we wanted. He kept sending us drafts until we were completely satisfied.
We had lots of compliments about our ceremony from everyone who attended our wedding, and we couldn't have done it without Jim!
