Best for Last

My husband and I got married on September 23, 2023 & had Mr. Garrett Foster officiate our ceremony. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant! Mr. Foster is personable, friendly, & super great at what he does. He sent us drafts of our ceremony & let us tweak it anyway we wanted to. Honestly, we didn’t even need to make changes because the first one he came up with was so good! During the wedding planning process, we realized VERY last minute we didn’t have anyone to marry us. We found all our vendors, except one of the most important ones- an officiant!! I think it was fate that caused us to “forget” that important detail. All the officiants we knew of had been booked. That’s when I found Mr. Garrett Foster. Had we not have waited so long to find an officiant, we would’ve used someone we knew. Because we waited so long, I went online searching! I found Mr. Foster on WeddingWire, & I’m so glad I did!! You won’t regret having him as an officiant for your big day. :)

We loved Garret!

We loved Garret! His questions to detail our love story were specific and to the point, allowing our wedding guests to be walked through the story of our love via his brilliant oration. I would recommend it to anyone!
