I 100% recommend Ben to be a part of your special day. We did not have that much information on how a ceremony goes, but Ben was able to provide us with information to make our ceremony personalized and how we wanted it. He was timely with his responses, checked up closer to our wedding date, and showed up on time. Thanks again Ben! 😊

Details: Wedding • Catholic • 21 - 50 guests • Help writing vows will not be needed • English • Officiant will not be needed at the rehearsal

Ben was absolutely amazing to work with, and I'm extremely grateful for his high level of care, communication, punctuality, and professionalism. He provided a list of questions to gather information and make the ceremony more customized to our wedding. Ben really provided information on all aspects of the marriage licensing + certificate to the vows and officiating for the ceremony. He truly made the whole experience in this regard worry-free. My husband I are very pleased with Ben's services, and I would highly recommend him for anyone looking for an officiant. Some examples of his high level of consideration: - He asked us what we wanted him to wear to the ceremony - He made sure to immediately stand to the side and out of frame at the end of the ceremony so the photographers had easy access to the wedding party (this seems obvious, but I hadn't considered it and felt it was so thoughtful)

Details: Wedding • Non-religious (no mention of God) • 21 - 50 guests • Help writing vows will not be needed • English • Officiant will not be needed at the rehearsal • Officiant does not need to be present at rehearsal

FAQs

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to meet face to face with the couple to discuss the details of their ceremony. To find out if there are special needs and/or ceremonies that couple want in their ceremony. This is your special day - I will work with you to create the ceremony and vision of how you want your day to go. I am always willing to personalize ceremonies.
Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
I've done weddings of all religions and cultures, as well as a variety of themed weddings. I am always willing to help you realize your vision for your wedding. Some of my favorite weddings to officiate have been Iron Man or Princess Bride-themed weddings.
