    Pleasant and very professional experience

    James and Kathy we very helpful from the first moment we spoke. They were flexible and understanding of the short time frame we had to get married. James and Kathy were very polite and courteous.
    We met them for the first time the day we got married. They greeted us with hugs and smiles and treated us with respect and professionalism.

    Sincerely, Daren and Lisa Rhodes

    James and Kathy were outstanding!

    After going back and forth online trying to find an Officiant for our wedding, I finally came across James's profile. The first time I spoke with him I knew right away that he was going to be the perfect fit. He and his wife Kathy are both just great people and we could feel the true sincerity in how much they wanted to make our day very special. The communication with James leading up to the wedding was excellent! He and Kathy were able to put together a very nice ceremony and exceed our expectations in a relatively short amount of time. We can't thank them enough and I hope this review helps another couple who is trying to decide on an Officiant. Just give him a call and you will know what I mean :)

    The Marriage Minister's reply:

    Bret, thank you for your review. We really enjoyed meeting you and Letty. At the end of the day all we want to do is deliver a ceremony tailored around what you both want. We wish you only the best life has to offer. We also want to wish you a Merry Christmas and an outstanding New Year.
    Kindest Regards,
    James and Kathy Spalten

    Excellent and understanding

    Jimmy is amazing and is a wonderful person. He is so understanding and made my wedding day a special day to always remember.

    The Marriage Minister's reply:

    Steven, thank you. The family of yours I met was so fun and gracious. It took us a " minute" to get there but we did it, you both pulled the "trigger." Kathy and I wish you both further success in your lives. Let me know if you go TDY. Peace ✌️.

    Absolutely Wonderful Officiant

    Jim was the absolutely perfect person for us to have as our officiant. He had wonderful energy, an enthusiastic attitude and was more than willing to incorporate all of our unique requests into the ceremony. We are so happy with the choice we made and would highly recommend Jim to anyone looking for a wedding officiant in the Tucson area!

    The Marriage Minister's reply:

    Rebecca and Tom it was my absolute pleasure to assist you both with your wedding wishes. Your sour dough starter was a unique and wonderful way to celebrate your unity. Kathy and I wish you the best for the many years to come. Mozel Tov!

    A Memorable and Heartfelt Ceremony with James Tijerina-Spalten

    We recently had the pleasure of having my father-in-law, James Tijerina-Spalten, officiate our wedding ceremony in December 2022.

    James brought an incredible sense of warmth, sincerity, and professionalism to our special day. His ability to create a meaningful and heartfelt ceremony truly exceeded our expectations.

    His delivery was flawless, capturing the attention of everyone present and leaving a lasting impression on us and the rest of our family. He created an atmosphere that was both intimate and inclusive, making everyone feel a part of the celebration.

    In conclusion, we cannot recommend my father-in-law, James, enough for anyone looking for a marriage officiant. He brought an unmatched level of warmth, and love to our ceremony, making it an unforgettable experience. Our wedding day was made even more special and meaningful because of him. We cannot thank him enough for being a part of our journey and for creating memories that will last a lifetime.

    The Marriage Minister's reply:

    Thank you so much for the stellar review. I promise to provide excellence in every step of the way on special days such as yours. You and Tyler have many so many more chapters to add to your book of life and love. It was a day that added to my book of memories. Love you both too the moon and back.

    The best!!!

    Jim was nothing short of awesome! He was polite, considerate and professional. By the end of the ceremony, he was like family! I would definitely recommend Jim to anyone for their special day

    The Marriage Minister's reply:

    Thank you Madison, spending time with everyone that day made me feel like I was part of the family. You're all so very special. God bless.

    Professional, warm and excellent!

    I highly recommend The Marriage Minister. Jim is a friendly, warm and kind person who will make your day extra special. He has a great sense of humor, is down to earth and caring. Due to an existing obligation (on our part) he did not perform our ceremony but was a special guest. We plan to have him officiate when we renew our vows and know he will do an outstanding job making our day memorable!

    The Marriage Minister's reply:

    Tanya, Thank you for the kind and thoughtful review. I understand the obligation and would expect nothing less. I know you and Andy have a long, loving and wonderful life ahead of you.
    James Tijerina-Spalten.
