Home Wedding Officiant

I messaged a number of local Wedding Officiants for my upcoming wedding. John responded literally the next day. I never heard from the others. John Rosendale was totally available and responsive. He was ready to do my wedding at my home exactly on the schedule I needed and wanted. He showed up early with his wonderful wife and helped us get everything taken care of and then he performed the perfect simple yet magnificent ceremony for us. He was a wonderful person with a very reassuring and charrming personality. He is a big jovial person that perfectly fits what I wanted for our home ceremony. He took care of everything professionally and without any additional fuss or bother. I really couldn't have asked for a better arrangement and Officiant and home wedding. Thank you John.

Excellent, very professional

We went with the small wedding complete package and it was a great deal. Up to 25 pictures,
a single layer wedding cake, and a bouquet of flowers for the bride were provided. It was perfect for our small ceremony of just family. John was very cooperative and flexible around our plans and theme for the wedding. The ceremony was exactly what we were hoping for.
