Amazing, memorable ceremony

We cannot recommend Rev. Richard Colonna enough! Richard officiated our wedding ceremony on May 7, 2026 at the Grain House in Basking Ridge, and he was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. He was personable, detail-oriented, organized, and truly took the time to make sure our ceremony was meaningful, personal, and seamless.

From our first conversation, Richard made us feel comfortable and cared for, and by the wedding day, he genuinely felt like part of the family. He guided us through every detail with such professionalism and warmth, helping everything go off without a hitch.

Our guests continuously complimented us on how beautiful and personal the ceremony was and what an incredible officiant Richard was. We are so grateful he was such a special part of our day and would highly recommend him to any couple looking for someone who truly cares about creating a heartfelt and memorable ceremony.

___________________________
Richard,

We just wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you for being such an important part of our wedding day. The ceremony was everything we hoped it would be. Meaningful, personal, and something we’ll remember for the rest of our lives and that’s all because of you.

You did an amazing job telling our story and setting the tone for the day. It felt so natural and special, and we’ve had so many people tell us how much they loved the ceremony.

We’re truly grateful for the time, care, and thought you put into everything. It meant a lot to us to have you standing up there with us.

Thank you again for making our day so memorable

- Nicholas & Courtney
