Congratulations to the Pearson's! What a wedding! Moved from the beach to inside due to a tropical storm! Everyone stayed in good spirits, and the wedding was beautiful! It was an honor to officiate for you guys!

I hope everyone is having a great holiday season! It has been a very special one for our family. We had a Christmas Eve wedding at my house in front of the Christmas tree! And if you have a Christmas Eve wedding, of course, you have to wear Christmas pajamas! I found a matching suit, too!

This wedding was even more special since the bride is our daughter! We were also able to get our son here, which is no small feat since he's currently serving in the Navy!

Officiating this wedding was one of the proudest moments of my life, and also one of the toughest.

Congratulations to Liam & Marissa Horn! We wish you many years of happiness and love.

2 years ago yesterday! Happy anniversary to the Mapula's! I always ask if there are any special requests, and for this wedding, I was asked to play their song. So honored to be able to officiate serenade them. Here's to many more years together!

I've been asked many times why I started officiating. Today is my 25th anniversary. The love that my wife has shown me over all of the years we've been together is the biggest reason I do this. I believe in the bond of marriage. When I see other couples taking their vows, and I can see how strong their love is, it just makes me happy. I want everyone I marry to have as strong and loving a marriage as I do with my wife. I never take my responsibility to the couples I work for for granted, and I am honored to participate in their special day. I can't imagine ever not doing this.

I love what I do, but when I get to officiate a family wedding, it's even more special. I had the honor of flying cross country to do my sister's wedding this past weekend. It was a beautiful day, and we had lots of laughs. Congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Buck! Love you guys!

It's a beautiful location for a wedding. Simple and well thought out. Really loved officiating this wedding there.

Even without crisp skies this view never gets old!
