From the very first time I contacted Rev. Porter, I knew we were in great hands. He was incredibly responsive, professional, and thorough from day one. On our first call, he walked us through exactly what to expect, what we needed to prepare, and shared his philosophy on officiating. That level of care and preparation set the tone for everything that followed. What truly set Rev. Porter apart was how much he empowered us to make the ceremony our own. Rev. Porter provided a variety of options and even shared a template so we could build a ceremony that felt completely our own. This made it simple and stress-free to personalize every moment, and his expert guidance ensured everything came together beautifully. On the wedding day, Rev. Porter delivered a joyful and deeply personal ceremony. So many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the ceremony and how thoughtful and personal the message was. Several even thought we had known him for years. He has a true gift for connecting with people and creating an atmosphere of warmth and love. Rev. Porter genuinely cares about the couples he marries, and it shows. We are beyond grateful and highly recommend him to any couple planning their wedding.

We had a wonderful wedding Ceremony in Chicago. Reverend Porter did an excellent job. He spoke with us several times before our wedding day, and personalized our ceremony.

From the very beginning, working with Rev. Porter was an absolute pleasure and truly an honor. He brought such warmth, professionalism, and intentionality to our wedding day that immediately put us at ease. Our ceremony felt deeply personal, meaningful, and beautifully guided exactly what we had hoped for and more. Rev. Porter took the time to truly understand us as a couple, and it showed in every word spoken. His presence was calming, his delivery heartfelt, and his ability to create a moment that felt both sacred and joyful was remarkable. We received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful and touching the ceremony was. We are incredibly grateful to have partnered with Rev. Porter for such an important moment in our lives and would wholeheartedly recommend him to any couple looking for someone who genuinely cares and takes great pride in his work. Thank you again for helping make our special day unforgettable. With gratitude, Natasha & Kevin

We had the pleasure of having our wedding officiated by Rev Porter. He was kind, professional, and made us feel like we had known him for years. Prior to the wedding he gave us a layout of how the wedding would go and ideas of unity rituals. Although it was done in a small intimate setting he did not rush through the process. I want to make a special mention to him traveling through a snow storm to make our special moment happen which shows true dedication.
