Wonderful Wedding Officiant

Barry was excellent! He really tailored the ceremony around our personalities. We are huge movie buffs, and Barry worked in some movie quotes for us. We just loved everything that he did. He was very considerate of me, the bride, when I was struggling to stay on my feet because they hurt so badly. Barry took the time to get to know us and incorporate our history into his ceremony. We can't speak highly enough to Barry's services. He puts a lot of care and consideration into his ceremony. Our wedding would not have worked without him. We highly recommend Barry for anyone in need of a wedding officiant.

Barry Bradford was the perfect officiant for our wedding ceremony! He took the time to get to know us and personalize the wedding beautifully. With it being a second wedding, he was very cognizant of my children's feelings in his speaking. I cannot recommend him enough.

Catering, flowers, music, venue… all the things that we think make the perfect wedding and we can almost overlook the most important part - US. Barry made sure that no matter what, our wedding was about US. We challenged him with a very short timeframe (less than 2 weeks) and still Barry took time to know us and our story and beautifully weaved it into the service while also making sure the entire wedding was about celebrating our love. Everyone loved the words he spoke and the thought and care he took to make our wedding unique to our love and story. I especially loved how he kept reminding us to “look at each other” which helped calm and keep us focused on the most important part, each other. Thank you for the most wonderful day.

Barry did a great job! He was very easy to work with. Throughout the three meetings we had with him, he really took the time to get to know us. He made the ceremony unique to us as a couple and made sure to get the details right in regards to our love story. We asked for a secular ceremony, and Barry made sure that each moment felt special and meaningful throughout. We would highly recommend him!

Barry was an amazing officiant. Through a series of meetings he listened to our story and presented it at our ceremony in a great way. I was very happy he was part of our wedding experience.

Barry was so helpful and thoughtful throughout the ceremony planning and did an amazing job incorporating all aspects into our ceremony. He went above and beyond with several meetings in advance of the ceremony to get to know us as a couple and the intricacies of our family backgrounds, ensuring that our needs for the ceremony were met and fully understood. He presented us with several options of possible formats to guide the planning and was always available for questions. Barry included personal touches throughout the ceremony and exceeded our expectations in message delivery. He is a very talented story teller and captivated our guests while craftily weaving our love story through the ceremony. Would highly recommend Barry as an officiant for any wedding ceremony!

Would use him 100 times over!! Highly recommend!!

Barry lives up to his title of wonderful wedding officiant! He truly helped making our ceremony plan a breeze. It never felt stressful and was always fun meeting with him to plan! Barry is genuine and passionate about what he does which is what allows him to naturally produce the best ceremony possible. Everything we mentioned we were looking for, was never forgotten. We could not be happier with our choice! He is a pleasure to work with.

Barry did an amazing job officiating our wedding! He met with us multiple times to get to know us and his words were catered specifically to our story. We got comments from our guests all night asking how we knew him and saying it was the best ceremony they’ve seen. Barry showed up early for the ceremony which put our nerves at ease and he was so easy to work with even for our long distance wedding planning from another state. He’s an amazing story teller, which makes him an excellent officiant!

Barry was great! The ceremony was short and sweet just like we wanted. He took time to get to know us and we received plenty of compliments on our ceremony. Highly recommend.

If you're looking for the best officiant, Barry is the guy! Super professional, personable and sweet. He really took the time to get to know my partner and I and incorporated it in the beautiful ceremony he wrote up. Also listened to what we wanted in the ceremony and delivered exactly that! Definitely had us in tears. Thank you so much Barry!

Barry kicked off the most perfect wedding celebration with an absolutely touching, heartfelt and personal ceremony for our daughter and now son-in-law. You could tell he really took the time to get to know the couple. Barry is kind, funny, professional, well spoken, caring; truly a "wonderful wedding officiant". We'd give him ten stars if we could and can't thank him enough for making a special day even more special.

Barry was an incredible officiant for our wedding. He shaped the ceremony according to exactly the tone, content, length, and style we wanted. Within a few Zoom calls of preparation, he got to know us so well, and personalized our ceremony with so many wonderful touches. After the ceremony, so many wedding guests asked how long we had known him, and commented on what a lovely and personal ceremony he gave us. It was so special to have Barry marry us, and we couldn’t have asked for a better officiant, in all the care and work he put into our amazing wedding and all of the guidance and support he gave us! I recommend Barry to absolutely everyone - he will make your day so special and entirely your own.

Barry made the audience feel like he has known the bride and groom his whole life. He told our story as if he was there with us. His spirit transpired from the room into happiness and love. You cannot help but feel joy when you are around him. He made our wedding so meaningful. I am forever grateful that Barry played such an intricate role in our wedding.

Barry was absolutely phenomenal. He made our wedding so special, and was truly a gem to work with. His personality and true love for his couples really shown through and he made us both laugh and cry in the very best of ways. I cannot recommend him any more, and I’d give him ten stars if I could.

Barry was such a joy to work with! From our first video call with him to our actual wedding day, we seemed to click almost instantly. He had a warm spirit and really took the time to not only make sure our wedding ceremony was tailored to our tastes, but also to get to know us as well. Our ceremony was beautiful. And everyone we spoke to in attendance commented on how funny and fun he was. We would recommend him to any of our engaged and to-be-married friends looking for a personable and caring officiant!

Barry officiated my wedding back in September. He really did a great job at telling our story in a concise way. Everyone was so emotional with his nice words for us!! I got a bunch of compliments about how beautiful the ceremony was afterwards. Thanks Barry for everything!

Barry was absolutely delightful! As a person, and as an officiant. We had multiple ask us how we knew him. He was amazing and ran our ceremony exactly as we had planned, and made people both laugh and cry, in all the very best of ways. I cannot speak highly enough of this wonderful person, and soul.

Barry went above and beyond to create the perfect ceremony for our wedding. He was so patient, kind, and enjoyable to work with as we created the outline of the ceremony together. He brought so many wonderful ideas and was so open-minded to our input. Our ceremony was truly perfect for us thanks in large part to his work. We have had so many wedding guests remark on how incredible he was as our officiant. We love Barry and will always recommend him to any couples looking for a truly exceptional wedding officiant!

Barry Bradford is fantastic. Highly recommended as an officiant. He's very thoughtful and caring when it comes to building a professional connection. Barry is great at getting to know the bride and groom, creating a custom experience that is tailored specifically for what we needed.

A once in a life time experience has successfully been achieved with the help of Barry Bradford. Thank you Barry, you're the real deal and we absolutely feel you've done an outstanding job!

Barry Bradford was an amazing wedding officiant for my son's recent ceremony. As mother of the groom, I had no input in their plans, but having met Barry before, I insisted they have him perform the ceremony. He performed a beautiful ceremony, so eloquent, and yet so personal. It is apparent that he really loves his role in the marriage ceremony. So many in attendance commented on how special he made this day for our family.

Barry turned our Love Story into a beautiful ceremony. He met with us multiple times so he could really get to know us !! His attention to detail was evident during our ceremony. Barry made our ceremony spectacular!!

I can't express how much Barry did a fantastic job with our wedding. Each meeting we had prior to the wedding he made us feel comfortable and really took the time to get to know us. He put our story together beautifully and went over details with us to make sure we were happy with everything! Any questions we had he answered quickly along with reassuring us of things. That really took away any stress or anxiety we had and I am so appreciative of that. He was patient, kind, attentive and reliable! The effort he puts into making your day feel special is above and beyond and we're so glad we had him as our officiant!

Barry was wonderful throughout the whole wedding process. I kept getting compliments from all of my family and friends on his professionalism and thoughtfulness on the vows he read during our ceremony. Having Barry as an officiant took some of the stress off of us when we planned and he was such an awesome person to work with! We highly recommend hiring Barry for your wedding :)

If you are looking for a Wedding Officiant, I 110% recommend Barry! Barry took the time to get to know my husband and me as a couple and as people. We had multiple meetings before the wedding day where Barry also made sure he got a sense of what we wanted for our wedding ceremony. It really shows in the way that he works that he truly cares about making each wedding special. During the day of our wedding, he was on time and delivered on everything that he promised and more. He made our ceremony better than we could have imagined! He got the tone that we wanted spot-on and he personalized the ceremony including special remarks about us that only our family and friends would know. We received MULTIPLE compliments from our guests about how much they enjoyed the ceremony. Barry, thank you for making our wedding day that much more special. ☺️

Barry was a wonderful officiant! He really understood what we wanted for ceremony and got to know us. Barry was extremely professional and caring about making our ceremony the best it could be. I would highly recommend him!

Barry was fantastic to work with for our wedding ceremony- we really couldn't have asked for better! Leading up to the ceremony, we met a few times to get to know each other, plan the ceremony, and discuss any other questions we had about the ceremony and even the marriage license. Throughout the whole process, Barry was helpful, enthusiastic, and attentive. He provided a lot of guidance and truly cares for his couples. On the day of the wedding, I ended up getting a bad stomach bug and Barry did everything he could with the ceremony to help me be more comfortable getting through it. He accommodated our needs by revising the ceremony he had planned to shorten it, but still delivered an amazing ceremony. I had people afterward share with me how beautiful they thought it was. My husband and I loved how easy the planning before hand went and were please with how the ceremony went. Even with the stomach bug changing our plans a little bit, we still wouldn't go back or change a thing. 😊

Barry was very helpful and wonderful. He assisted us from our initial meeting with him on how the flow of the ceremony would be. He was on time during the ceremony and officiated our marriage above our expectation. We highly recommend!

We had such a fantastic experience with our wedding officiant- Barry. He was a pleasure to work with and a great communicator. He made our dream ceremony come to life!

Barry was amazing from the moment my husband and I first spoke with him, all the way through the ceremony. From the very beginning – even before we hired him - Barry was offering us advice and tips for everything from an outline of the general ceremony steps all the way though tips for walking down the aisle- and everything in between! My husband and I have not been to many weddings in the past, and so I really can’t overstate just how much Barry’s help and guidance was for the entire ceremony. A bit closer to the date of the wedding, we met with Barry again and he took the time to get to know us as a couple so that he could craft a beautiful, unique ceremony, just for us. He included stories of how we met, how we fell in love, and even mentioned our cat! All of our friends and family know how important our kitty is to us, so it was a wonderful and very personal touch. Everyone absolutely loved the ceremony that he wrote, and weeks later, we are still receiving complements on it. Barry truly was a wonderful officiant for our wedding, and I am very glad we found him! He made our special day perfect.

Barry was absolutely amazing! From our first zoom call, to being patient while we had teenager antics on our second zoom call and then the day of! Our ceremony was a magical experience and Barry was a large part of that. Friends and family asked how long we've known Barry because it felt like it was years! He added in just the right touches to make it truly special. I can't say enough nice things about him and I would say stop your search here! He is the BEST and if we had to do it all over again, he would still be my #1 choice!

Barry was such a pleasure to work with. He was warm and welcoming from the very start! He handled everything and made sure that the process went smoothly. What we loved best was his genuine spirit and personal touch. His price is very very reasonable for the customized experience he provides. He'll meet with you and hear your love story so that he can incorporate that into the ceremony. That was so important to us and he delivered. He will work with you to create the ceremony of your dreams and he has some cool suggestions as well. Highly recommend!

Barry was an incredible officiant who made our wedding intimately personal, entertaining and fun! We loved every session we had with him prior to the wedding - we always ended them smiling ear to ear. So many people came up to us after the wedding and noted how incredible he was, how it seemed like we had known him for forever, and how they wanted to get remarried just so they could have him officiate their wedding!

Barry was extremely helpful during the process of preparing us for our actual wedding day! In a twist of fate, we actually were able to get a close family friend to officiate. However, the advice Barry gave to us was invaluable, and meeting with him was always a pleasant experience. I really appreciate your help, Barry!

Where to begin about Barry? My husband and I have only the most positive words regarding the ceremony Barry so kindly crafted for us. During our first call with him, it became quickly apparent how friendly, easygoing, and attentive Barry was when learning about his couples. I remember us hanging up after the call and deciding that very night that we would hire him as our officiant. Barry gathered so many important details about us, our families, and our love for each other that he was able to weave into his speech. He hit every single point and then some, to such a degree that even I was surprised to remember we told him certain facts! So many of our guests raved about him and his ceremony speech, each one surprised to learn that we had only spoken to Barry a few times in preparation for the wedding. THAT is how good he is at getting to know his couples, connecting with them, and sharing in their joy for an event as special as a wedding. Truly it felt like we had known Barry forever with how he spoke to us and for us on behalf of our ceremony. I could not recommend Barry enough for your own wedding - you will not be disappointed!

Barry officiated our small wedding this past weekend, and it was amazing. My guests are still complimenting how thoughtful Barry was, in fact, my husband’s parents came up after the ceremony and asked “How long have you two known Barry?” He created a ceremony that was so unique and special to us, he took the time to get to know us and ask questions, he steered clear of what we didn’t want, and even spoke with my husband to add some personal touches that surprised me in the best way. He was thoughtful with his words, and made the ceremony so lovely, I would wholeheartedly recommend him to any couple.

Barry was amazing! He really took the time to get to know us and crafted an absolutely beautiful ceremony that everyone in our audience loved!

Barry was the best officiant we could’ve asked for! He made the ceremony perfect, and so wonderfully captured us. We laughed, we cried, and it will be something we remember forever. I cannot recommend him enough.

Barry was fantastic in every way!! Before the wedding, he built a relationship with us and got to know us and our story. He captured our values in his personalized message, and everyone commented on how he must have known us for years! We got so many compliments about how that was the most personalized, meaningful ceremony people have ever seen! Barry made our vows so special and made sure to include people who couldn't be present and cultural aspects in the ceremony. With all my heart, I recommend Barry!

From the very start, Barry went above and beyond to take the time to get to know my fiance (now husband) and me. He was very upfront about wanting to make sure to get to know us as people and as a couple in order to tailor our ceremony to truly represent who we are. Barry did just that and more! He listened to our wishes and tailored our perfect ceremony. We can't thank Barry enough for capturing our love and sharing it in such a perfect way with our loved ones!

Barry officiated our wedding earlier this month and we're so happy with how our ceremony went! He is such a sweet and friendly person and took a lot of time getting to know us over zoom to put together a ceremony unique to us! He's clearly really passionate about his work and wants to please the couples he works with. All of our guests complimented how thoughtful his ceremony was. We're so glad he was able to work with us and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a wedding officiant!
