Diane F. Sent on 04/21/2024A Wonderful Wedding Ceremony!
We met Wayne over coffee when we were looking for a wedding officiant. We had read great reviews about him and wanted to meet with him. . What a fun personality he has! He was also very intent on getting to know us. Finding out what kind of wedding ceremony we wanted was very important to Wayne. We met a few more times over coffee to go over the ceremony and to add any details we wanted.
Our wonderful wedding ceremony was exactly what we had hoped for thanks to the amazing job that Wayne did!. He’s a great friend besides an amazing wedding officiant! Wayne is so sweet that he even danced a few dances with my 90 year old Mother.
If you’re looking for a great wedding officiant I would definitely go with Wayne at One Spirit Ministries!One Spirit Ministries's reply:
Steve and Diane were a great couple to officiate for and with. And her mother knows her dance moves! -

Millie and Lex Wedding Santa Barbara Mural Room April 2024
Thank you Wayne for doing such an amazing job with our ceremony this Saturday! I also want to thank you for taking time to talk to us multiple times to ask us how and what to include in our wedding! You are so patient and calmed us when we needed it! All your suggestions and those special personal touch made our day so extra special. I couldn’t thank you enough!One Spirit Ministries's reply:
Officiating in the Mural Room at the Santa Barbara Courthouse is always a moving experience. And having you two there with all your relatives was and extra special treat, especially when they were all acknowledged individually! The relaxed atmosphere made it all the better. Thank you for having me as your chosen officiant! -

Se Sent on 03/23/2023Wayne is amazing!
Wayne Edmiston was awesome! He was kind, patient, and reassuring, especially with all my questions. Unfortunately, we had to postpone our wedding date. When I phoned Wayne to let him know, he was understanding, compassionate, and encouraging - exactly what I needed to get through that minor setback. The big day finally arrived, and he kept everything in line with professionalism, kindness, and a smile.
If you want a special service with a personal touch, I encourage you to call Wayne - he is amazing! =)One Spirit Ministries's reply:
I had an awesome time too! The love showed in their hearts and faces! I am deeply touched by their authenticity. -

Everything was perfect
Wayne was great. Incredibly helpful throughout the entire process from start to finish. Our guests loved him as well!One Spirit Ministries's reply:
Wyatt and Karlee were a total joy to work with as we co-created their wedding ceremony. Now, both sides of the aisle know their history and herstory. We had a blast! Several bride's maids came from Australia... Wyatt and Karlee's love of friends and family was the perfect touch to a wonderful ceremony. I am honored to officiate. -

Lauren H. Sent on 08/19/2022July Wedding at Terra Mia
Wayne from One Spirit Ministries did an amazing job officiating our ceremony! He really spent the time getting to know us and our full story, and incorporated that into a very personal ceremony. Our vows and his reading went together seamlessly! We had only really talked on the phone once or twice before the ceremony, as it was a destination wedding for us. But come rehearsal, he was so kind and acted like we had known each other for years. Highly recommend Wayne!One Spirit Ministries's reply:
Such a welcoming family. Having their wedding at Tera Mia was the perfect destination. I am humbled, honored and deeply appreciate their review. Thank you Lauren and Jeffrey! The pictures look fantastic! -

Debbie M. Sent on 08/11/2022Wayne is Wonderful!
We found Wayne online from a friend who recommended him to be our officiating pastor. He was very professional, respectable, and extremely helpful. He sent us passages from the Bible and other quotes that he researched for us that he thought we like or that would be appropriate for our ceremony and vows. He was such a joy to talk to and Zoom call with and it was an absolute pleasure and honor having him perform our ceremony. He was a great sport too as we all had to take off our shoes and walk barefoot on the beach and in the ocean to get to the spot where we decided to have the ceremony in Avila Beach, CA. I highly recommend him as he was very flexible with our schedules and available when we needed him and just such an awesome guy! He even took photos of the 4 of us and they came out wonderful! I would include a video of our wedding but since we wrote our own vows and they were personal about us I didn't want to post it but it went exactly as we had discussed and we were very happy with our decision to hire Wayne. :)One Spirit Ministries's reply:
This was a magic time for us on Avila Beach. Also the first time in over 15 years of officiating that I've taken off my shoes and socks, rolled up my pantlegs and walked to the desired location on the beach - a real blast! Debbie and Neal were gracious, friendly, and full of love - it showed every step of the way, through our co-created ceremony. I am honored they chose me to officiate them. -

It was great working with Wayne!
Wayne was so easy to work with, he gave us many options so we were able to craft our ceremony to the passages that resonated with us as a couple. He was patient with us and facilitated our rehearsal wonderfully. Our ceremony was beautiful and heartfelt, exactly what we wanted!One Spirit Ministries's reply:
Brittany and Raul were fun to be with. They selected the passages they wished to have included as it fit their heartfelt thoughts and dreams. There was happiness, love, and excitement in their eyes as they shared their vows. The Pavilion at Cypress Ridge Golf Community was the perfect location. A perfect blend of time, place, and the love shared by all who were there...Party on! -

Happily ever after
Mr. Wayne was great. He was punctual ,dressed for the occasion and has a great personality. He was on point with everything.One Spirit Ministries's reply:
Jason and Talia were a joy to work with. Together, we constructed a ceremony befitting their plans, desires, and ideas. Lining the cul-de-sac near the SandCastle Inn was an event in-of-itself. The Rose ceremony was touching and memorable. All the families present were engaged, present, and joyfully expressing their happiness. I am honored they picked me to officiate their blessed wedding. -

Downey O. Sent on 05/17/2022Wayne is a Life Saver!
We were in a bind trying to find a replacement officiant for our Wedding with only a week to go! Luckily through various referrals and research, we were able to find Wayne! From the start, we could tell Wayne had a very warm personality and was easy to communicate with. As we emailed back and forth finalizing our ceremony, Wayne really let us tailor the fine details and create our ideal experience through his sermon. And on our wedding day, he arrived early and was extremely personable. He had a great sense of humor, was fun yet professional and was very well-received by our guests and family! We are blessed to have had the opportunity to include Wayne in our special day; thank you!One Spirit Ministries's reply:
In over 350 wedding celebrations, Downey and Tessa were my first couple to both need Kleenexes during our co-created ceremony that suited them to a 'T'. I was honored, delighted, and humbled by their soul's connection as they spoke from their hearts. This union was a total joyous celebration from the start to declaring them husband and wife. -

Chris A. Sent on 04/11/2022The best officiant!
We hired Wayne for our wedding in Nipomo and rehearsal and all I can say is I am SO thankful we hired Wayne. During the wedding planning process he would check in, send us drafts for our ceremony, email back right away. He is and was so nice and kind to work with and easy to work with! We loved how he added a sense of humor to our ceremony, he felt like a friend and eased us from any nerves. He was always there for recommendations, for any chances to the ceremony speech. Thank you Wayne for making our ceremony and rehearsal the best day ever!One Spirit Ministries's reply:
Chris and Brissa were a joy to work with in co-creating the ceremony of their hopes, wishes, dreams. The love they shared and expressed is priceless. Their beloved four-legged Bandit being escorted by 'Turkey' with the rings made everyone's day. Throwing rose petals by friends and family was the perfect exit strategy. Thank you both for having me officiate your wedding!

Special Day in Cambria
From our first interaction with Wayne we appreciated his attention to detail and interest in wanting to learn more about us and our journey. He gave us various ideas on what to include in our Wedding Ceremony to encapsulate our story. Wayne is very responsive and on our wedding day showed up early to ensure everything went according to plan. We are very happy that Wayne officiated our wedding. We would highly recommend him. Thanks Wayne - M&MOne Spirit Ministries's reply:
M&M, how sweetly appropriate for you two! Seeing the love expressed in your smiling eyes gladdened my heart strings. I am truly grateful to have been chosen to officiate your wedding on Moonstone Beach. The setting was perfect and the weather, spot on! -
