What a great wedding day we had - Rashad was so accommodating and understanding, tailoring the entire ceremony around our unconventional asks. Our wedding was very private, small, and outdoors. Even in the mist, he was positive while politely ensuring we were on schedule. Definitely recommend! Special day I will never forget.

Details: Elopement • Non-religious (no mention of God) • 20 guests or fewer • Help writing vows will be needed • English • I'm flexible

Rashad gets you the biggest bang for your buck. He made sure to coordinate with us months ahead about expectations, wants, concerns and adaptations. Then on the day of we had to adjust some things and he was flexible and gave us good direction. He clearly has done this many times and his confidence was calming. He knew certain details and he helped facilitate our day with some nice nuances.

Hired Rashad to be our officiant for a last minute pandemic wedding. Rashad was AWESOME. We started planning 3 days before the date and he had a really fast response, gave good advice, and made us feel at ease. The day of the wedding, Rashad came on time and gave a wonderful speech to our small group. The length of his speech was PERFECT---we didn't want something too long and not something too short. It felt like we'd been friends for a long time. It fit the atmosphere well. Thank you so much, Rashad! You were a memorable part of our day.

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    I decided I needed to take control of my own destiny. I wanted to be my own boss and make my own schedule. I have always had fantastic customer service skills and have received numerous awards, bonuses, promotions at the few companies I have worked for. So I decided to take all I have learned and all my customer service experience to start my own ventures.
