Introduction
I am an ordained minister who will perform non-denominational, civil unions and same-sex marriages at any location. I will work with you to design a ceremony to meet your needs. We will discuss the options for your ceremony either in person or by phone consultation ~ whichever is more convenient for you. I service indoor or outdoor venues in Illinois, and parts of Indiana. You pay a $50 non-refundable fee to book the date (payable within 7 days of hiring) and the balance would be due at rehearsal. I accept credit/debit cards, cash, check or SquareCash for payments. Booking now for 2023-2024 Season. I began marrying couples since 2004.

Jay was WONDERFUL as the officiant for my daughter's wedding. He even incorporated her and her fiance's kitties in the ceremony. It was very sweet. I can't recommend him enough! You must have him as your wedding officiant!

Details: Wedding • Non-denominational (mentions God) • 101 - 150 guests • Help writing vows will not be needed • English • Officiant will be needed at the rehearsal

Kelly, Thanks for your 5 Star review of my service. It's always nice to hear how people respond to the ceremony script. I wouldn't have been able to do it without the input from Hannah and Nate - they were fun to work with. You did a great job too! Thanks for having me.

I had my wedding this month out at Salt Fork Center and The Marryingrev officiated the service for us. I am so happy I found this website! The Marryingrev was definitely the way to go. He was so easy to talk to, listened to what we needed and wanted, and planned a beautiful service for us. He was early, professional and courteous, everything went extremely well. I couldn’t have asked for anything better!

Details: Wedding • Christian • 51 - 100 guests • Help writing vows will not be needed • English • Officiant will not be needed at the rehearsal

Thank you, Julie, for your glowing 5-Star review of my service! It was a pleasure officiating for you and Jamie. I enjoyed my time with you, your friends and your family.

Literally the best person ever for the job! He was professional and very very respectful. We had a beautiful Christian ceremony! Even though we contacted him literally 2 days before the wedding he showed up and showed out!!! He even came with a gift that fit us absolutely perfectly!! 10 out of 10 very highly recommended!!!

He was very kind, and patient. Our 2 year old was running around, and he never once got frustrated. He laughed about it the whole time. He had a great heart, which made things perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better little wedding. When we do our official wedding in a few years, we will definitely be calling him!

Thanks for posting your review. I really appreciate it. It helps when others are searching for an officiant to see what you thought of your experience. Your 2 year old was so cute and lovable. I had a great time playing with her and the ring box. <3
