Andy is a pro!

When we first met with Andy, his humor, professionalism and calm demeanor made us feel so at ease, and we just immediately clicked! He took the time to get to know each of our stories, who we were as a couple, and he crafted the perfect narrative for the ceremony based off of that. He learned that we have a cat only a week before the ceremony, and he worked her in perfectly to the ceremony wording in a way that had us both smiling from his thoughtfulness, and his flexibility and professionalism showed with how easily he adapted and incorporated this new info. Our guests laughed, teared up, and everyone in the room was captivated by Andy's thoughtful words. Multiple people came up to us afterwards and asked where we found him, and some assumed we must have known him for years based on how personalized the ceremony was! Andy was courteous, on-time, helped set up, charmed our family and friends, and was an open communicator throughout the whole process. I can not recommend him enough for whatever wedding ceremony you're looking for: religious, not-so-much, or somewhere in between, Andy knows what to say and can do it all with his unique, thoughtful style!

Seriously, the best officiant I have seen. I do 20-30 wedding ceremonies per year as a DJ, and Andy has a great way of combining his personality and humor to every ceremony he officiates. Most importantly, he tells a great story for the couples that he is working with. Highly recommend you check him out if you're getting married!
