  Great experience, even in a crisis!

  Reverand Meghan Gurley graciously stepped in when our original officiant had a family emergency that had her out of town on our wedding day. She immediately called us, took the time to get to know us as a couple and our vision for our wedding ceremony and make all the small details happen. She was attentive, thorough and added thoughtful touches and ideas that we hadn't even thought of. Our ceremony went off without any problems and we felt prepared and supported. Thank you, Meghan-- we could not have done it without you!

  We highly recommend Rev. Gurley for your wedding!

  Rev. Gurley did an amazing job working with us throughout the whole process. We were one of those "pandemic couples" that had a wedding scheduled right when Covid happened. Unfortunately, we had to postpone that wedding (twice!). However, she was kind of enough to legally marry us on our original date in April 2020 at our favorite park. Then, she married us once we had our big wedding in November 2021. She did a great job with the multiple-faith ceremony. We highly recommend her to any couple!

  Meghan is the best!

  Reverend Gurley (Meghan) officiated our wedding this past October. She is simply the best.
  
  She met with us prior and walked us through every step of the wedding ceremony. She even has a blog dedicated to explaining each phase of a wedding which we found very interesting and helpful. She helped us personalize our ceremony and had several great ideas for us to consider. The weather was iffy that day and we were planning on an outdoor wedding, but Meghan made herself available for the whole day to accommodate for whatever the weather did. The ceremony was beautiful, special, and very memorable.
  
  Thank you Meghan!

  Wonderful officiant and counselor

  Reverend Gurley was amazing! She helped us personalize our vows and make our wedding so much more special. We also did pre-marital counseling with her, which was fantastic.

  Eason wedding

  Rev. Gurley was excellent!
  I am so glad we were able to get her for my son’s wedding. The engaged even agreed to have her pre-marital counseling. Meghan helped them customize their vows into a very personally meaningful ceremony. My personal favorite thing about the entire evening was the “hand fasting” portion. (Old school)
  Rev. Gurley was integral in making the day a beautiful experience for us all!

  Excellent!

  Rev. Meghan Gurley is wonderful! We eloped and gave her about 2wks notice. She responded right away, took her time to get to know us and came up with a beautiful cross cultural Indian American ceremony. She incorporated all our wishes, came dressed to the wedding in an Indian outfit and even performed a knot tying ceremony we wanted. Above all, she respected our reasons for elopement and even agreed to do another commitment ceremony for us when we're ready to celebrate with friends and family!

  The best wedding officiant!

  Rev. Meghan Gurley is the best! She came to our house and met with us to create a tailor made ceremony for us. She followed up many times and was always available for questions. She was on time and was instrumental in creating a seamless and beautiful ceremony! My wedding was a lot less stressful and a lot more enjoyable because of her. I highly recommend!!

  We hired Meghan for our premarital counseling and wedding ceremony, and we were very happy with both! Our premarital counseling occurred over three sessions, and each one felt useful and thorough. We were able to learn several fighting techniques, for example, that have helped us handle problems in healthier ways, and we went into our wedding ceremony feeling even more confident about our relationship. After finishing our sessions, Meghan worked with us extensively to craft the perfect mostly-secular marriage ceremony, which ended up being both beautiful and unique. I would highly recommend Meghan to anyone who is looking for someone flexible, responsive, and interesting to help them start their marriage on the right foot. We couldn't be happier with our experience!

  Meghan was absolutely amazing to work with. From the first time we spoke with her, Meghan was extremely friendly and professional. Not only did she help us customize and build our wedding ceremony, she kept us on point the day of, helping to make sure that the whole event was going smoothly, and that everything and everyone was in place. She provided awesome suggestions when we asked for them, and helpful reminders whenever we forgot anything. Perhaps most importantly, she provided us with an ease of mind, knowing that she would handle her duties (and others) as professionally as we could possibly hope for. Highly recommended!

  Reverend Gurley was so awesome to work with! She was very sweet, accommodating and helpful. She guided us through the whole process, from license to vow writing and even helped to calm our nerves on our wedding day. I loved working with her and highly recommend her.

  I'm so happy that we had Meghan perform our ceremony. She met up with us about 2 months before and went through the whole ceremony with us and we got to choose what was important to us. She helped us feel very comfortable about the process so we knew just what to expect. We felt that our ceremony was so very sweet and precious just for us . Meghan was so sweet and thoughtful and professional, she made it very memorable and special. We were very happy??

  Rev. Gurley was truly wonderful. From the very beginning, she worked with us to create a ceremony that was uniquely ours. Instead of pushing for a cookie-cutter ceremony, she gave us options for each part of the ceremony so that it was perfect for us. She is very affordable, professional, and will go out of her way to make sure that everything is perfect. Five stars just aren't enough.

  Rev. Gurley is amazing. From our first meeting to our ceremony she always made sure that we were comfortable and happy. She worked with us to make our ceremony reflective of us as a couple and not what others are doing or what she already has prepared. We also used her services for pre-marital counseling and after every session we felt stronger as a couple. I would recommend her to any of my family or friends, she was a truly a blessing for us.
  Thank you Meghan!

  My only concern during wedding planning was finding an officiant, and Reverend Meghan got rid of any concerns I had. She was easy to work with and extremely knowledgeable. She worked with us to create a non-religious ceremony that was a true representation of our personalities. We also used Rev. Meghan for premarital counseling, and I truly believe she helped better prepare us for our future. I highly recommend Rev. Meghan!

  Reverend Gurley made everything so easy!! We loved that she was always early and well prepared, and she let us do our ceremony the way that we wanted to. She was able to put our minds at ease any time we got flustered or nervous. We could not have made a better choice.

  Rev. Meghan Gurley is just simply wonderful!!! My now husband and I searched high and low for someone that could help us create the perfect fusion Christian-Hindu wedding and she was AMAZING. It was important to us that we didn't diminish the importance of either religion and she helped us create a special moment that was truly representative of both of us. Our friends and fam are still telling us how special they thought it was. We are eternally grateful!

  I can't say enough about Meghan. She was thoroughly committed to not only having a memorable and personal ceremony, but also to supporting our relationship. I was always (and still am) able to contact her and get a prompt response. She goes out of her way to make working with her clients as easy and fun as possible. You won't regret working with her.

  'Beyond I Do' is an appropriate name for this officiant's endeavors because every detail of the ceremony that Reverend Meghan Gurley created for us was above and beyond normal expectation.
  At my wedding the aisle blew away, the trellis fell over and the vases of roses crashed onto the tables: losing their battle with the wind. None of this mattered in the least because the wedding ceremony that Reverend Gurley performed was absolutely beautiful.
  Years of education followed by training at the seminary prepared this minister to craft a unique and touching marriage ceremony that involved our guests, as well as, ourselves. Due to Reverend Gurley's attention to detail and genuine concern for our preferences we did not just attend our ceremony we experienced our marriage.
  Our ceremony was so precious that not even high winds could deter our joy.
  Thanks, Reverend Gurley

  'Beyond I Do' is an appropriate name for this officiant's endeavors because every detail of the ceremony that Reverend Meghan Gurley created for us was above and beyond normal expectation.
  At my wedding the aisle blew away, the trellis fell over and the vases of roses crashed onto the tables: losing their battle with the wind. None of this mattered in the least because the wedding ceremony that Reverend Gurley performed was absolutely beautiful.
  Years of education followed by training at the seminary prepared this minister to craft a unique and touching marriage ceremony that involved our guests, as well as, ourselves. Due to Reverend Gurley's attention to detail and genuine concern for our preferences we did not just attend our ceremony we experienced our marriage.
  Our ceremony was so precious that not even high winds could deter our joy.
