Introduction
The greatest compliment I receive is when a guest comes up to me at the end of a ceremony, and asks me how long I’ve known them. Then they’re shocked when I tell them I’ve only known the happy couple for a few months. That’s when I’ve done my job right. One thing that allows me to stand out above the rest is attention to detail. When I work with a couple, I have them get to know me, and I take the time to get to know them. That way, their ceremony doesn’t just have a feeling of someone reading off a script. Their ceremony is all about them, and their story as a couple. I am careful to make sure every aspect of the wedding ceremony is exactly what the bride & groom want. This is why I say: “Ceremonies as unique as you.” I’m looking for couples who want to create a truly authentic ceremony. One they’ll be well-pleased with and their guests will absolutely enjoy. I love helping two people achieve their dream of marrying their soulmate. Being involved in such a wonderful event is a complete honor to me. No matter how many ceremonies I do, every one of them means something to me. I understand that couples have a variety of choices, and when they choose me... wow!

Ernie officiated our marriage ceremony on September 1, 2022, and he was incredible to work with. First, he was very communicative via email and text. He took the time to discuss our wedding over the phone, educating us on different nuances, like handfasting, and walked us through what to expect on the big day step by step. He also prepared a wedding script for us to follow during the ceremony and sent it to us in advance. Lastly, he was open to our suggestions about the wedding location (the beautiful Jenkins Estate) and arrived there on time. Even though it was a small reception, Ernie, being a popular choice in the area, still agreed to participate and made us feel well cared for. We wholeheartedly recommend hiring Ernie for your wedding, big or small. His attention to detail and exceptional oratory skills will undoubtedly make your day even more special.

Tobin was absolutely wonderful as our Officiant 💍 we couldn’t have asked for a better person. He was quick to respond except for when he got sick which is understandable he put together the best vowels of me and my husband that we could’ve asked for he knew the exact location that would be perfect and ideal and exactly what I had in mind for our special day hands-down five stars.

We can't say enough wonderful things about Ernie! We were so lucky he was able to fit us in with his high demand and busy schedule! From communication before the wedding, to the actual ceremony his professional went above and beyond. He made our wedding complete and perfect! Many of our guests complimented how great and professional he was. They couldn't believe we could find someone like that with such short notice, neither could we! Thank you Ernie for everything! We HIGHLY recommend EC Matrimony to anyone searching for an officiant!

FAQs

  • Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

    I loved doing my boss' ceremony. Her & her fiancé had an issue with a wedding officiant & were in a jam. She sought me out at my work & asked me if I could help (wedding was in less than 2 weeks). I took them both out for coffee, made sure everything they wanted in their ceremony & then told them to relax, I would take care of them. We had such a blast & they were grateful it worked out the way it did. I made that part of the wedding planning easy for them.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Make sure you have the ceremony you want. After all, it's your memory you're creating. Too many times I've seen people settle for less or do the ceremony somebody else forces on them. Make sure your officiant asks lots of questions.
