    May wedding

    I would highly recommend Josh! We are beyond happy with his services. He officiated our wedding ceremony last month in May. It was absolutely perfect! We wanted a non traditional civil ceremony. Josh made it so special with his beautiful words and friendly personality. It was everything we wanted and more thanks to Josh! He will set up a call with you and go over every detail which really made us feel comfortable and put us at ease. He also took care of mailing in the license which is very helpful and considerate so it’s one less thing to deal with before your honeymoon. Thank you again Josh for making our day so perfect!

    Five Stars for Rev. Josh Rader Lee

    Rev. Josh Rader Lee was amazing. He was very professional and flexible during last-minute wedding changes. He was available for us for wedding planning and couple therapy/pre-martial counseling. Highly recommended.

    The Best Pastor!

    Josh is a great pastor and officiant! Despite our different religious backgrounds, he offered several templates from Christian to contemporary for the opening speech and curated it to be special for us. It meant a lot to me and my now husband that Josh took the time to learn who we are and incorporate that in our ceremony, it made our day feel even more special. Josh is responsive and answered our emails in a swift fashion as well as calling us to check in if we missed any emails. I highly recommend Josh if your looking for a professional and kind pastor/officiant!

    Rev. Josh Lee's reply:

    Thank you so much for such a thoughtful review. This touched me to read and recall this special day :) I enjoyed being your officiant and getting to know you and your family some. Wishing you all the best as your love continues to grow!

    Amazing Pastor

    Josh is an amazing pastor, he was on time and attending to both my wife and I before the ceremony to check up on us. During the ceremony itself he made it feel personal and made our day special. From the poem to the quotes from our favorite pop culture series (star wars) he really curated our ceremony experience. He has a friendly deposition and always was approachable leading up to the wedding. I cannot recommend him enough.

    Amazing, personalized experience

    I contacted Josh regarding a vow renewal for two of my clients coming from France. They were visiting NYC for their 10th anniversary and were hoping to have an intimate ceremony with some friends in the area. Josh went above and beyond for their renwal! We spoke multiple times before the ceremony to make sure it was tailored exactly to their needs and wishes, even adapting so far as to making the ceremony secular. The vow renewal ceremony was one of their favorite moments from this extremely special trip, and we all recommend him with absolutely no hesitation.

    Rev. Josh Lee's reply:

    Thank you so much for such a thoughtful review. You were a joy to work with and I appreciated getting to know you as I got to know the couple! :)

    Thoughtful, caring pre-marital counseling

    Josh was an incredible resource for my fianceé and myself as we prepare for married life. He sent us a detailed sheet of 100+ questions that we filled out independently, and we had two sessions to discuss any questions where we were not completely aligned or hadn't explicitly gone over logistics. He was a great listener and facilitator, and we feel incredibly confident after our experience.

    Pastor Josh is wonderful!

    We are so incredibly lucky to have found Pastor Josh Lee to be our officiant. Not only was he an incredible officiant, but also a wonderful, caring person who went above and beyond to make our ceremony special and thoughtful. He got to know us as people, and seemed to deeply care about getting to know us and our faith journeys. Josh navigated important questions we both had about marriage, faith and what we wanted our ceremony to be. Many of our family and friends came up to us afterwards to let us know that Josh’s ceremony was one of the best they’ve ever heard. Josh brought most of us to laughter and tears that day, and we are forever grateful that he was there for us, and that he is now in our lives. Can’t recommend him highly enough!!

Excited to continue to build our connection, now that you're attending Forefront too! Wishing you all the best as your love continues to grow!

    Perfect wedding day

    When my now wife and I first decided that we wanted to have a Pastor to officiate our wedding,we honestly didn’t know where to start. We had tried a church that we had gone to before that we kind of liked but quickly found out going through the wedding process our values and theirs did not align at all. We felt at a loss and unsure of what to do, so we decided to go on wedding wire to see if we could find a better fit. We could not have asked for someone better than Josh Lee. He made everything so easy for us and truly cared to learn about us, not only in our journey of faith but as people too. He walked us through each step of the process and was keen on incorporating all our fun ideas to make the cemorary exactly as we wanted. The day of the wedding brought both many tears and many laughs but even some applause 👏🏽 everyone including us will remember that day and will forever be grateful that we found Josh.

    Intimate small ceremony made perfect

    Josh was the final piece joining everything we put together for our special, special day. He helped make our moment personalized and added a feel of love and harmony all around. I asked to add a quote from The Lord of the Rings last minute and he successfully added the line and had more than a few of our family and friends shed a happy tear.

    Rev. Josh Lee's reply:

    It was such an honor to be a part of your special day! Grateful for your very thoughtful review. I wish you both the best as you start this next phase of your lives and love together!

    Amazing Officiant

    Rev. Josh was a great officiant, and I would highly recommend him to other couples in the NYC area! He worked with us to create the ceremony that we wanted, and was professional yet passionate throughout the process. If you are looking for an inclusive and polished officiant, Josh would be an excellent choice!

    A wonderful experience!

    Have no worries using Pastor Josh as your wedding officiant. He was so kind to us and really listened to our needs. We wanted a simple service but yet Christian, words that would be meaningful to us. Josh gave us several suggestions of scripts that we modified and were able to find what we wanted. Josh was caring and very interested in us and our life situation. He is very relatable and ran the service seamlessly. Please consider Josh Lee for your wedding officiant.

    Forever Memorable Ceremony

    Josh is amazing! We had so many compliments from our wedding guest about our ceremony. Josh is commutative, professional, and very personable. He took the time to know us, what we were looking for in a ceremony, and spent time writing a personal ceremony for us, for our special day. Both my husband and I are forever grateful we chose Josh for our wedding.

    Thoughtful, Supportive and Personalized!

    My husband and I chose to unite in marriage after heartbreaking experiences in our past. Josh's approach to our unique situation was thoughtful and loving. His pre-marital counseling helped us talk through the issues pertaining to marriages not only after failure but later in life. The ceremony itself was personal and the whole room was in tears. The entire experience spoke to our hearts and minds and truly captured where we were in our journey. So thankful for his wisdom and guidance during such a wonderful moment in our lives!

Josh will always hold a special place in our hearts for being such a beautiful part of our ceremony.
