    Amazing Service!!

    I would highly recommend Scott Gardner. Our wedding at our dream venue got cancelled less than 48 hours before it was set to take place due to the Coronavirus. I asked Scott if he would still be able to marry us and he didn't hesitate in saying yes. He braved the pandemic and agreed to marry us at our parents house for a very reasonable price. Some of my wife's family only spoke Spanish and Scott incorporated both English and Spanish flawlessly into the ceremony. All the guests that were still able to attend made several comments to us about how amazing the ceremony was and it was all because of Scott. You won't find a better officiant that Scott Gardner.

    Scott is the best!

    I am so thankful that we found Scott to be our wedding officiant! He was the so great to work with. He had him originally scheduled for our first wedding which was cancelled due to COVID. He was so accommodating during our changes/postponement. I would recommend him over and over again to everyone! Thank you so much Scott!

    Truly the best of the best!

    Scott was listed as a preferred vendor and was recommended to us through our venue. From the very first time we met him, he was so easy to work with, personable, professional, and funny! He listened to our vision, accommodated our wants, and executed them perfectly on the day of. Additionally, Scott provided us extremely helpful advice in the whole marriage license process (applying, getting certified copies, etc.) and he even took our marriage license to the Superior Court after our ceremony for us (this was so helpful and much appreciated - as a bride, it was one less thing I had to worry about!). We are so happy that Scott was our wedding officiant and we are so grateful that he was a part of our special day!

    Personable

    Scott Gardner was such a personable and kind officiant. He also said my name correctly which many people don’t do. He went over the ceremony in detail with me over the phone first and went on to ask me some things that would make my ceremony feel like it was designed for my husband and I. We could not have asked for anyone better!

    Scott Gardner was recommended by our venue. I am so very happy that he was the officiant for our wedding. He was very personable and relayed the message that I requested at my wedding ceremony. I can’t speak highly enough of him!

    From the first time my husband and I met Scott, we knew he was the one we wanted at our ceremony. Not only was he nice but he was also very personable. He took his time to get to know my husband and I. He made us feel like we have known him forever. No matter what question I had, he always answered it and he was on time to our ceremony. He has a positive energy and you can tell Scott loves what he does. I would recommend him to anyone.

    Scott is amazing. He will give you the ceremony you want and it'll feel like a lifelong friend is there. He takes the time to get to know his couples and will tailor the ceremony to what you want. I had him read a poem at our wedding and he fit it in perfectly to our ceremony. My sister used him for her wedding so he was our top choice as well. He's very organized and very focused on giving the couple what they want and what he can do to make your wedding the best.

    Without a doubt Scott exceeded our expectations!!! I have never attended a bi-lingual wedding ceremony before...Thank Heavens we found Scott for my son and daughter in laws wedding for so many reasons!!! There were many cultural traditions on both sides that were integrated into my son and daughter in laws wedding. Without Scott's perfectly orchestrated seamless transition from English to Spanish the wedding ceremony could have been very confusing for so many. There are always so many highlights of ones "special wedding day" I was not surprised when so many of our family and friends said that Scott was over the top amazing!!!! I would highly recommend Scott, not only did he do an outstanding job at the ceremony but all his planning beforehand, meeting with the bride and groom you would have thought the three of them knew each other for years.... which made for such a beautiful ceremony!

    Scott was amazing. We met him and one other bilingual officiant. Right after meeting the second one, we knew Scott was the one. He had an outline ready to go within a couple of days. The ceremony was more beautiful than we could have imagined. He is so very friendly and makes you feel comfort right away. Even knowing that we were going to meet with another person before deciding, he went above and beyond by asking questions and providing ideas for things that we hadn't even thought about yet. We got so many compliments. So very pleased to have had him included in our little backyard wedding!

    I cannot tell you how many compliments we received after the ceremony regarding how amazing Scott was. You can tell that he puts in a lot of hours to tell the perfect love story. Scott was so fast in replying to emails, and he really took the time to get to know us as a couple. During the ceremony, there was nice a nice flow to everything that Scott was saying and it evoked so much emotion! At one point, he wanted us to just enjoy the moment and not worry about anything else. He had us gaze into each other's eyes to soak it all in. There was just something so powerful about that. I cannot wait to get the video from the ceremony so I can hear and see it all over again!! Highly recommended!!!

    Scott was a great officiant. He is bi-lingual and translated everything he said during the ceremony for our guests that speak Spanish - it was perfect! He was extremely helpful and informative at the rehearsal. He is very patient, has a wonderful smile and disposition which makes you feel at ease. Our wedding was a bit stressful - so much planning and running around, hiring Scott allowed us to have one less thing to worry about. We left it in his capable hands and that proved to be the right thing to do. Even though we only met with him a couple of times, he was able to personalize our wedding and it felt as though he had known us for years. You can tell he loves what he does. Although that is important for every vendor, the officiant starts your wedding and sets the tone for the entire event so it is even more significant - so very glad we started ours with Scott!

    Scott was the perfect officiant for our wedding! We met with him quite far in advance of our wedding, but at every point from that first meeting to staying in touch as the wedding got closer Scott was always a joy to work with. Not to mention his pricing was very reasonable for the top-notch service we received!

    Scott was able to provide a beautiful, personal ceremony for us even after only having met us once, which was very impressive. He was able to come to our rehearsal, which was super helpful, and the entire time at the rehearsal and on the big day he was friendly, warm, and really made us feel at ease. We somewhat knew what we wanted in our ceremony but weren't entirely sure at first - Scott really helped us narrow in on what parts would be important to us and even provided a script prior to the rehearsal that I could read through and give him notes on to make sure it was just how we wanted.

    The actual ceremony itself was beautiful and we were so thankful to have Scott there to guide us along each step of the way. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant in the Phoenix area!!! Thank you Scott for making our wedding ceremony perfect!

    We were so happy to have Scott officiate our wedding. From the first meeting with him to the last, he was so pleasant, funny, and made you feel comfortable. He really does care about who you are and wants to make sure everything is done the way you want it . I was very nervous the few minutes before the wedding and he gave me reassurance that It would be fine and that everything would go smoothly. He was right! Everything went very well. I would highly recommend him! Scott is the best in the business!!

    I am SO happy that we chose Scott Gardner as our wedding officiant! Our ceremony turned out exactly the way that we envisioned it. Scott put in a lot of effort to personalize it to what we wanted, and was always willing to go above and beyond to make sure that we were happy. He made us feel very special on our wedding day, and he was genuinely happy for us. I especially recommend him if you need an officiant who does bilingual ceremonies. Our ceremony was perfect.

    When we met Scott, we were struggling to find an officiant for our wedding. We had met with a few, but none seemed like they would be a great fit for what we were envisioning. After finally meeting with him, we were intrigued by Scott's professionalism and humor. We decided to ask him to be a part of our big day. This was by far the best decision we made regarding our wedding! Scott did a phenomenal job at both the rehearsal and the wedding. He was so organized, professional, funny, and delivered a beautiful ceremony. He was the perfect fit and was exactly what we were looking for! Thank you, Scott, for making our day so special!

    Scott called back within an hour of being contacted about our next-day ceremony, confirmed the time and place, and asked all the right questions to perfectly tailor his service to our wishes.

    He was extremely professional in appearance and actions, and very polite and friendly, both to us and our guests. He arrived with plenty of time to meet with us and review the details of the ceremony, and also to coordinate with our photographer. She even commented later about how nice he was to work with.

    The ceremony itself was outstanding. We had Scott perform a civil (non-religious) ceremony in English only, and, while he likely uses a very similar format for most services, his presentation was very warm, and his words were very moving and appropriate. It felt like we had a customized and rehearsed ceremony, although we had not met before that afternoon.

    We had quite a few guests who complimented our choice of hiring Scott, and were shocked to learn that we found him by chance just one day earlier. In fact, one guest even asked for his contact info, so that she can hire him for her upcoming wedding. I would wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone!

    We picked Scott as a preferred vendor at the Superstition Manor. It was really important for our wedding to have someone who would do the ceremony in Spanish and in English. He did a great job, my family really appreciated it. Thank you Scott!

    Never replied back!

    We found Scott on wedding wire and decided to hire him as he was bilingual. He never answered my fiancé’s calls, so I decided to give it a try. At last, we got a hold of him and set up service for our wedding date. We had a FaceTime meeting call and he sent us our script via email. The following week, as I was trying to set up a form of payment, he never responded. We are unsure of what happened, since he never gave us a response. We would have preferred to have been notified if he was unable to provide the service, or if something came up. He just never called back, texted back, or emailed us. We had to look for someone else.
