    Evan was great!!

    Evan was incredible! We truly could not have asked for anyone better! He sent a thorough questionnaire to us before our ceremony, and followed every prompt we had given him. 10/10 will recommend to all of our engaged friends!

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Thank you guys so much! What a perfectly beautiful day you guys had celebrating such a beautiful love story. I was so honored to be able to stand with you both on such a magical day :)

    Most memorable and amazing ceremony

    Evan was the most kind, professional, and funniest officiant I have personally ever met. He created such a beautiful ceremony for my wedding that was tailored specifically for my now husband and I. I got so many compliments on his behalf on how much they enjoyed the ceremony and how awesome he was! Thank you so much Evan for making my wedding so beautiful and amazing. I cannot recommend him enough!

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Awe, thank you so much! You guys are so adorable and your group was so much fun. Classy and fun all rolled into one. Thank you both so much for inviting me to be a part of your amazing and special day!

    Perfect officiant for our big day🤍

    We could not have picked a better officiant, he was knowledgeable, kind and helpful. He wrote a beautiful script for the ceremony that was personal to us and captured our love perfectly. The poem he ended with still gives me chills and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him, he’s kinda a hot commodity around here so be sure to book him as soon you can.

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Thank you so much you guys. What an amazing experience it was seeing two beautiful people with two unique backgrounds come together and celebrate a love for the ages! Thanks for including me :)

    Incredible Officiant!

    Evan officiated our recent wedding, and we couldn't have asked for a better person to lead our ceremony. He was incredibly professional, ensuring everything ran smoothly. When we unexpectedly needed arch flowers, Evan came through with beautiful ones he happened to have, saving the day. He truly made our special moment even more memorable with his thoughtful and heartfelt words. We highly recommend Evan to anyone looking for an outstanding officiant.

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Man thank you so much for your kind words and for trusting me to help make the day special. I'm so glad everything worked out and that you guys were able to have the beautiful moment you were hoping for!

    Very professional. Hector Cruz did a wonderful job of allowing flexibility for our ceremony while providing an excellent personal touch. They were very organized, responsive, and our guest commented that they really loved his service.

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Some of the most heartfelt personal vows I’ve ever heard. When two people are so enamored, my role as the officiant is to just let that love shine throughout the ceremony. What a joy it was to take part in you special day!

    Evan The Man!

    Evan was the man! He did an excellent job with our ceremony. Evan stepped in when our original officiant had to back out. Extremely professional but kept it light and fun! We didn’t get to meet Evan in person until immediately before the ceremony but it felt like we knew each other forever. Highly recommend!

    Married By Evan's reply:

    So glad we were able to make it work guys. You are both so much fun and it was really great working with you both!

    Wonderful experience and funny as well at times!

    Evan was amazing! He went over everything for the ceremony and how it would go with me before we began, gave me very clear and great instructions for what to do with the paperwork after. He also did two beautiful readings for us and incorporated a fun line of dialogue when exchanging rings that matched the theme of our wedding and it being a very iconic line. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautifully orchestrated ceremony and 10000000% recommend him!

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Well I can honestly say that I have never before been 10000000% recommended, but I will absolutely take it! Thank you guys for sharing your beautiful and fun wedding with me. Congrats to toy both.

    Evan is truly exceptional

    Evan is truly exceptional. He came highly recommended to us by both our venue and wedding coordinator. Luckily he had our date/time available and after booking Evan, as we continued to plan almost every vendor knew Evan and said that "he is the best" and they weren't lying. We chose the Silver Wedding Package, which includes just one video call. But during this one meeting, Evan took the time to get to know us as a couple and our FULL story. Day of, Evan arrived on time, wearing the colors we requested and went over specifics with my dad (father of the bride) and myself, then again separately with my groom. He made us all feel completely at ease and ready to go. His level of professionalism and calm demeaner was even more impressive when I learned that he had 5 separate weddings on our wedding day. This means he changed 5 times, traveled 5 times, and performed 5 personalized ceremonies! Wow! And when I say personalized, I really mean it. Evan took everything we said during our one meeting and wrote a beautiful script for our ceremony. Hearing all the personal touches for the first time at the alter with my husband, made the ceremony even more special and unique to us. Almost every guest complemented the ceremony and Evan specifically; some people asked how long we have known him, thinking that he was a family member or friend because of all of his personalized touches. Evan's personal connection, professionalism, genuine care, and deeply heartfelt presence is beyond comparison. I am so grateful and honored to have had him as our officiant.

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Oh man, you guys ... it doesn't happen very often at all, but I am totally speechless! You guys are so awesome and were so easy to work with. Your love story really is a beautiful one "right out of a Hallmark Channel movie" and it was truly my joy and honor to be able to help tell it on your magical day. I truly am grateful that you took the time to write such a details and uplifting review. You guys rock!

    If you're looking for an Officiant, Evan is your guy!

    Evan was incredible. Let this be another review that says the others are true. Not only was his service exactly as advertised and expected, Evan is truly an amazing person to know and work with. He was very prompt with communication throughout the planning process, on time for every event, and created a ceremony that we will remember forever.

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Evan Poe is truly a phenomenal officiant!

    Evan was incredible from the beginning! We chose to do a package where we did not get to meet Evan but he sent us a completely customized questionnaire to really get a feel of what we wanted. On our wedding day Evan met with myself and the groom separately and went over every detail to ease our nerves! He was personable, funny, and professional! He added specific bible verses we requested and made us feel comfortable when we read our personal vows. Evan is truly the master of his craft and the best part is he truly cares! Evan actually fluffed my dress when I got to the altar as we didnt have a bridal party! He also moved out the way for our kiss immediately which we didn’t have to ask! I could not recommend him more. Our guests were raving after the ceremony at how great he was!

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Oh man you guys are so amazing. Thank you so much for such kind words. I am so thankful that the ceremony was everything you were hoping it could be. Congrats to you both!

    We could not recommend anybody better than Evan for an officiant. He played a big part in making our special day perfect. He gave our ceremony a romantic feel with some humor mixed in which is exactly what we were looking for. He took the time to get to know who we were as a couple so he could tailor the ceremony for us. Our friends and family mentioned how good of a job he did and how much they liked him!

    Perfect Officiant for a perfect day!

    Evan did an absolutely OUTSTANDING job with our wedding. Not only were my husband and I beyond pleased with his beautiful words, but his ability to weave in our wants and words into his speech was flawless and done so, so well! He included our daughter and families into the speech and when we met virtually he provided us with so many options and possible cues and words so we could make the best choice on our ideal ceremony. Our family was also very impressed and raved about the ceremony the entire evening! Thank you so much Evan! Your words will stay with Christopher and I forever :)

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Thank you so much you guys! You are both so amazing and I had an incredible time working with you both. I can't wait to see what the future has in store for your beautiful family :)

    Evan was so professional and took care of everything for us! I just had to fill out a small questionnaire and he took it from there. He was so well spoken and had the perfect mixture of humor and emotion. He led us through everything and accommodated all the personal touches we wanted to add. I would recommend him to anyone that wants a lovely ceremony!

    Beautiful!

    Evan was amazing! While booking, he made sure to get to know us so our day can go smoothly. Also, he was flexible on changing details. Our day was supposed to be just us, but we ended up having to bring our little ones. He made sure we were comfortable and accommodating to the little ones. Although we were getting eloped, the words Evan spoke were beautiful and made us feel like we were having a big wedding. So, we can only imagine how beautiful it would be if we were to have a big ceremony.

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Awe thank you so much guys. I know that having little ones can be a blessing AND a challenge so I am so glad that we were able to find a place that worked for everyone and to give you guys a beautiful little ceremony. Congrats to you both!

    Exceptional and personalized service!

    Evan is professional, entertaining, and charismatic. He personalized our ceremony making us feel like he had known us for years. What I did not tell Evan during our consultation was that my grandfather, a Lutheran Minister, performed the ceremony for my first marriage. My grandfather has since passed, and when thinking about my second wedding and not having my Poppop be here to perform our ceremony, I worried I would lose that personal touch. Evan had some big shoes to fill and he did just that! Our wedding was amazing! My mom also complimented me on the ceremony and my choice of officiant. Thank you Evan!

    Married By Evan's reply:

    Oh wow!! Now this review caught me off guard. I am so sad that you Poppop could not be with us, but what an honor to be able to stand in his place for such a beautiful moment. I am so thankful that I was able to provide just a fraction of the blessing he would have been. Thank you both so much for trusting me to help make your day special!
