Our wedding was excellently presided over by Father Tom! Collaborating with him on the wedding script was a hassle-free experience. On the big day, everything ran flawlessly. However, our marriage certificate was misplaced, either in the mail or at the county office. Father Tom graciously took it upon himself to drive down to the county clerk to assist us in resolving the matter, which we were deeply grateful for! Our interaction with him was incredibly beneficial.

Discovering Father Tom on this app to perform a crucial role in our wedding has brought me immense joy. His support and guidance provided us with the necessary stability and solace prior to and during the ceremony. Father Tom thoughtfully picked a stunning biblical verse and allowed us to be ourselves without judgment. The ceremony was genuinely divine and Father Tom, being a very pious person, conducted it, making us extremely fortunate to have him. We are grateful beyond words and can never thank him enough, but nonetheless, thank you.

Father Tom did an exceptional job officiating our ceremony. He was attentive to our preferences regarding which traditions we wanted to include and went above and beyond in making our day perfect. Our guests were impressed with his interactive approach and we received numerous compliments on his officiating. Additionally, Father Tom helped ease my husband's nerves, making him feel comfortable at the altar. Our wedding was truly everything we hoped for and much more. We feel privileged to have had Father Tom as our celebrant. :)

Our wedding ceremony was made all the more special by the outstanding job Father Tom did as our officiant. He spoke about us in a way that made our guests believe he had known us for years. He added so much meaning to our special day, and for that we are truly grateful. We highly recommend Father Tom to anyone in search of an exceptional officiant.

In my opinion, Father Tom surpasses all other Catholic priests or officiants I have encountered in weddings. He had a remarkable ability to make the bridal party and guests feel truly immersed in the ceremony with an effortless blend of humor and joy. Additionally, he incorporated the Greek Orthodox component, including the crowning of the bride and groom, as per our request. The entire congregation was delighted with the ceremony, and I eagerly hope to have future events in which Father Tom can participate. Moreover, he executed the rehearsal in a most professional manner.
