Super pleased.

Pastor Samler was perfect. There was trepidation regarding having a stranger perform the ceremony but once we found him, I felt at ease. Our wedding was in an area neither of us were from but God led us to Matthew! He was caring of our desires and spent time getting to know us and then he didn’t feel like a stranger. He is super friendly, funny, and shared a message that expressed how important God is in a marriage and how love abounds :) he was awesome!

The best officiant we could ask for!

Pastor Matthew Samler did an amazing job for our small wedding. Not only was he able to get there earlier then we needed as it began to rain but he had a great attitude and personality the whole time. He was well prepared and ready to go the minute he got there. His script was filled with strong loving words , he allowed us to see it weeks prior but even then hearing it come from him you can tell he loves his work and does his best to represent that in his words. He went above and beyond by including a few lines for us in spanish for our non English speaking guest which a lot of officiants weren't willing to do but it meant so much to us to include them (sounded fluent to!). We would recommend Pastor Matthew to anyone getting married as he truly made our ceremony special!
