    Thank you Pastor Bob!

    Thank you Ken and Pastor Bob for a wonderful wedding ceremony! Pastor Bob was so helpful in drafting up an emotional and personal wedding script that left myself, my husband, and our guests in tears. He asked the right questions and was able to format our ceremony to our exact specifications and also brought in the right amount of humor and religious aspects for us. Thank you again!!

    Wonderful experience

    We had Coach Felix officiate our wedding. He was wonderful, super friendly and helped make our day special. He also added some funny commentary during our ceremony which was great. He did an amazing job and was great about communication leading up to our big day.

    Easy, Organized, and Stress-free

    My husband and I got married out of state in SC and Ken was super helpful throughout the process. He made sure we knew where to go apply for our license and even mailed our official marriage certificate to us. Ken offers a variety of ceremony packages with options to personalize with your own vows. Our ceremony was exactly how we wanted and so very special to us. I definitely recommend Ken and his team!

    Very professional, calm and detail oriented

    Me and my wife got married in Feb 2020. Mr. Ken Bowers officiated our wedding and it was wonderful working with him. He was very organized and detail oriented in his work which impressed me and my wife. I would highly recommend him to other couples.

    Ken is Amazing!

    Ken was wonderful to work with leading up to and on our wedding day. We is so prepared for every question you may have. He helped us with all the steps of getting our marriage license, writing our own vows and now the name changing process. He was so kind, personable, calm and comforting through a nerve racking part of our wedding. Cannot recommend Ken enough!!

    Absolutely amazing!

    Ken went above and beyond! He talked us through the whole process at the rehearsal and the day of the wedding. He made sure all of our questions were answered. At the end of the ceremony Ken stepped to the side without us asking when we did our kiss, which allowed us to get an amazing photo of just the two of us. He handled the process for us and was absolutely amazing!

    Ken really took the time to learn about both me and my husband and how we envisioned our wedding ceremony. He was always easy to reach if there was a question and provided guidance along the way!

    Our forever Bob!

    Bob kept us grounded during our entire ceremony. He was truly the gravity for our experience with getting married. The groom was running behind, but Bob kept assuring me that it was okay and this was my only wedding. He was very calm during the entire process. I wouldn’t have had it any other way! Thank you so much Ken for deciding Bob was a good fit for us. He was absolutely amazing!!

    Very Professional

    Mr. Bowers was exceptional! He did an amazing job speaking and being our officiant for our wedding. Prior to the wedding we were able to communicate via zoom calls to go over our wedding ceremony timeline and communicated all that we needed to know about our venue which was extremely helpful to us. Thanks Mr. Bowers for your service to my Husband and I.

    Ken Bowers is awesome!

    Ken was able to work with Garrett and I with just over a week to go before our elopement! He eased all of my ceremony stress and I was able to just enjoy our big day without worrying about the details of the ceremony. Ken did an amazing job officiating and helping us coordinate getting the marriage paperwork in order. I highly recommend working with Upstate Wedding Officiant :)

    Highly Recommend

    Ken went above and beyond for our wedding. He was very communicative upfront and allowed us to customize our ceremony as much as we'd like. Due to Covid we had to reschedule our wedding a few times. He always made sure he was available for our wedding. We also had to cancel our wedding planner because of covid. Ken stepped up the day of our wedding and helped us coordinate everyone in attendance. In our wedding video we noticed how helpful he was during the procession and send off. I cannot recommend him enough! Thank you so much Ken for making our wedding day perfect!
