Reverend By Request

About

Hello and Congratulations! 

Reverend by Request grew out of our passion for beautiful wedding ceremonies.  The demand for our services has grown by word of mouth from our newlyweds long before our website ever existed.  There is obviously a great need for a caring Wedding Officiant who goes the extra mile and delivers an extraordinary ceremony.  Couples want someone to officiate their wedding just like we do – warmly, expertly, and professionally.

In order to serve couples at the highest levels, the Wedding Officiant needs to be a qualified professional who can provide an exceptional, joyous, personal, and memorable experience for everyone.  Wedding Officiants are not “cookie cutter.”  There are huge differences in style, presentation, warmth, joy, love, comfort, charisma, appearance, and energy.  We know you want the absolute best for the most important day of your lives.

Your ceremony is the heart of your wedding and your Officiant is the heart of your ceremony.  The ceremony sets the tone for so much that follows whether you are planning a Civil, Traditional,  or a Christian Ceremony; whether your wedding is an impromptu affair, or has been months in the making, you want it to be perfect and performed just as you dreamed and planned it to be.  This is our mission, as well as our profession.  We are not part time Ministers performing weddings on the weekend as a hobby; we are Ministers full-time, and have performed hundreds of weddings over the past few years.

Your wedding day will be a day that begins your new life together; it deserves to be the day that is as unique as the two of you are; a day that recognizes the profound commitment you are making to one another; and should be the most wonderful day you have envisioned for the rest of your lives.

Please take a moment to visit our website and review some of our “Testimonials”.  Our couples have had some beautiful things to say about us and our company and may help you decide if Reverend by Request is the best choice to officiate at your wedding too.
