Highly recommend Reverend Judy Grimes

I couldn't have asked for a more sentimental, and meaningful ceremony. Reverend Judy Grimes did a wonderful job. We were so moved by her words, and the natural positive spirit Judy carries with her. I highly recommend her as the most important part of your special day.

Great service

Judy performed our ceremony and we absolutely adored her. She did a great job at our ceremony and really worked hard to tie things in to it that were unique and personal to my husband and I. She was very willing to adapt and change her script to make it fit exactly what we wanted. We also live out of town and she was extremely responsive to email and was available to communicate and meet in a variety of different ways such as phone, FaceTime, email, and in person. We would recommend her to all brides and grooms looking for an officiant.
