My partner and I were a bit apprehensive about hiring someone that we didn't know to play such an intimate role in our wedding. However, after one phone call with Rick Grove, we knew we had lucked out and found the exact right guy! He was warm, funny, reassuring, and immediately gave us both the shared feeling that this was exactly who we wanted to hear from during our most special time. Rick patiently listened to us as individuals, as a couple, and as his clients, and did all he can to accommodate our wishes and personalize our ceremony. He had many beautiful readings and ceremony parts for us to choose from and customize, and provided his own (unjudgmental) guidance to help us choose the perfect ceremony flow. In his individual interviews with us, he asked some open-ended questions and allowed us to truly share what is special about our partner and our relationship, which he tastefully incorporated into his script. Many people told us that the ceremony was beautiful and just the perfect length--we couldn't agree more. Rick Grove feels more like a long-time family friend than a hired officiant, and that just speaks to his absolute perfect fit for this role. He loves what he does, and we loved having him be an integral part of our ceremony. Rick's fees were already quite modest, and were worth every at that. We will be forever grateful for the seamless process and beautiful ceremony that Rick gave to us. You absolutely CANNOT be disappointed here, and we vow to that.
