Well, to be honest I was apprehensive at first, hiring a Reverend I had never met or heard of in and in a different state. But I can assure you we were more than pleased. Reverend Carver was easy to talk to from the very beginning. My husband, then fiancée Dave, and I interviewed with Reverend Carver for two hours on the phone. We decided we wanted to make the wedding fun, so the Reverend wanted to know all about us: how we met, who was important in our lives, how we feel in love, all the quirky things that just made us, well us! He used this to write the most amazing ceremony. It was all custom to us! We were in Salt Lake City down from Idaho Falls, so we met with him over lunch, just to get to know him in person. We already knew this was the breath of fresh air we needed for our wedding. My mother left the lunch saying, “How refreshing, I really like him.” Already an accomplishment, knowing my mother! |

After a few weeks he emailed us our first draft, we made a couple minor corrections, and we were ready to go! Dave and I laughed so hard reading the draft. We kept it private so it would be a fun surprise for everyone at the ceremony. But we couldn’t wait for people to hear it! As most people know, nothing ever goes as planned at a wedding, but Reverend Carver didn’t skip a beat. We even asked him to stay for the rest of the celebration, since he now felt like a friend, rather than an officiant.
The ceremony was perfect, we laughed, cried, and most of all everyone had so much fun! The phone calls haven’t stopped about how it was one of the best weddings our guests have ever been too! As I found with some vendors they are full of big promises, but they don’t produce results when the time comes… you won’t find that with Reverend Carver.
You get what he tells you, and so much more. What a pleasant relief. Thank you Reverend Carver for making our ceremony full of all the personal touches that make us, Tammy and Dave! And of course the 3 a.m. last minute wardrobe change the day of the wedding.
