Introduction
Welcome Wedding Planner! I'm April Kelly of Pastor Apes, LLC, and am an Ordained Minister with the Universal Life Church Ministries. I am booking well into 2025, so please reach out to see if I have your date free! Being able to join two people in marriage brings me so much joy, and tailoring a special ceremony based on the specific requests of the couple is the most fun I get to have. I would love to be a part of your special day if you let me!

April was AMAZING! We are so lucky to have found her. The script she wrote for us we so beautiful and captured our personalities so well. We also just got out wedding video back and have to say that not only was Aprils presentation perfect, but she jumped out of the way when we kissed! That’s how you know you’ve got and experienced officiant on your hands! She was perfect.

April is amazing! Truly looking forward to working with her. Our weddding is in November, I’ll update more after that. So far, April has thoroughly explained the process and how she incorporates our wants and needs into the ceremony. She takes the time to hear you out and even sent an email, asking questions to better understand our story.

April was amazing! we had plenty of guests come up to us & ask if she was a friend of ours because of how detailed her ceremony speech was of our lives. it was emotional, funny, & really made us feel special & kept the guests involved. she sent over the speech for us to review before the day of & allowed us to change anything before the big day! she does amazing work! (she also made sure to walk out of first kiss photo shot which is awesome)!
