Joyful Wedding Ministers

Richard just did our ceremony, we had a blast! He's easy going, caring and truly interested in what's going on and there to give suggestions or able to help out with anything. Great resource to have, Thumbs up!!!!

Richard was amazing. We decided to have a last minute wedding so I called Richard up on Friday and he said he would do the ceremony for us on Sunday. He even had to drive for over an hour just to do it and he did it effortlessly! Since it was only my husband any myself in the wedding, so we were missing a witness, and Richard even provided us with a witness, a wonderful lady with who we bonded immediately. It was the most perfect day, intimate, graceful, absolutely stress-free and Richard had a lot to do with making it as perfect as it gets. The best part was that after the ceremony was over, we liked him and his friend so much that we ended up having our wedding dinner with the two of them. And the price was unbelievable for all the services Richard provided. I highly recommend him!

Richard was very helpful in crafting a personalized and heartfelt ceremony including multicultural practices such as the arras coins and a lei ceremony for parents. We enjoyed working with him and would recommend him to friends!

We were very fortunate to have Richard as our officiant. He was calm, genuine and professional, and was able to accommodate us on very short notice. He took his time to ensure all our needs were accommodated, and quickly had a good sense of the atmosphere we wanted to create.

Thank you for been part of our evening and for making it a memorable experience. Maria and Torsten Kiene.

Richard provided officiant services for our wedding. He guided us through the process in a warm and knowledgeable manner. He was flexible and open to our feedback. But most of all when the big day came he was there with a smile on his face and a welcoming energy for our family and friends. We couldn't have asked for any better of an experience.

Finding Richard was a huge blessing for us! We originally thought we'd get married in late April or early May and about a week after we met Richard on 1/20, we changed our date to 3/24. We planned our wedding in 60 days!!! We would not change a thing. We continue to get compliments on our ceremony and can't thank Richard enough for guiding us to make it ours. We had a few editing sessions and took all of his advise and it was so special for us and our family and friends. He has so much experience officiating. He also referred both our DJ and Photographer and we were very very happy with both. He was so nice to work with and a great coordinator and officiant. I am not one to give a 5 rating but he deserves it :). Thanks Richard for making our day so relaxed and fun!

Any couple who may be apprehensive about coordinating an official for your wedding via the internet, don’t be. Richard is absolutely responsible, efficient, and professional. He will respond to each and every question regardless of time of day, whether by phone or email. Richard was prompt friendly and went over and above what we actually paid him for. He is a prince, and should be commended for his work, as he visibly loves what he does, and takes pride in his profession. Both my new wife and I can’t say enough about Richard and what he meant to the two of us.

Richard was great! He made it effortless and performed our ceremony with the utmost professionalism. He was very easy to communicate with and our ceremony was just as we wanted it.

We would definately recommend any couple looking for a knowledgeable officient. He tailored our ceremony to fit us.

Thank you Richard! Nicole & Greg

Richard performed our ceremony and did a fantastic job! I highly recommend him. He helped calm both of us down before the wedding started and he did a great job of improvising when things didn't go exactly as planned. We feel very fortunate to have had him marry us.

Richard was outstanding! He responded to emails and phone calls immediately. From the first time we met with him, we felt comfortable. Even our family members commented on how well he conducted the ceremony. I would reccommend Richard to anyone.

Richard was our wedding officiant and I have to say, he was well spoken, calm, friendly, punctual, informative, and one of the most professional vendors I encountered. I can't tell you how fast he responds to emails! Unfortunately, we were unable to have our wedding rehearsal because our wedding party came from different distant locations...however, thanks to Richard's tips/advice, the day of the ceremony everything went smoothly. Our ceremony was personal, romantic, just beautiful and overall was everything we could have hoped for:D My husband and I are so pleased with Richard's services that we would not hesitate to recommend him:) Thanks again, Richard!

Richard was wonderful to work with. He provided suggestions that were perfect for our occassion and was very helpful. At one point we needed to pospone the wedding and move it to another date and he was very accomodating with that as well. We finially did have to cancel all togeher due to things not working out and he has agreed to refund our deposit. Thank you so very much for all you have done. We will certainly call you in the future when the kids can iron out their issues.

Richard did an amazing job assisting my wife & I plan and execute a seamless elopement. He answered questions at all hours of the day (7am-11:30pm); he even intuitively provided answers to questions we hadn't even thought of.
I highly recommend him as a wedding planner/officiant

Richard was excellent! We planned a last minute wedding in 2 weeks. I spoke with 5 or 6 officiants in the palm springs area and was not happy with any of them. I spoke with Richard 4 days before our wedding day and he was flexible with not only doing the wedding but also making time to meet with us before. He was professional and personable and did a wonderful job!

A real pleasure to work with - thoughtful and responsive to our needs, and the source of a relaxed, wonderful ceremony.

We had the unique pleasure of using Richard's services TWICE! Once when we eloped in Palm Springs and the second time when we had a vow renewal in Malibu (he travels!). Let us tell you- the pleasure was all ours.

Richard is the man you want to be part of your special moments. He is calming, sincere and truly puts the "joy" in joyful.

Both times Richard worked with us to craft the ceremony that reflected us. He lead the ceremony with complete happiness. I really think it was infectious for us and the crowd.

He was always on time and looked wonderful.

Make Richard a part of your special day too!

We had a very simple ceremony but Richard made it very special....he was wonderful to work with and I was very pleased with his services...

Our officiant Richard was excellent. He met with us the day before for our rehearsal and he did a great job getting my bridal party organized. The day of the wedding he was there early to help us out with anything we needed. I would most definitely suggest him as an officiant....he is great!!!
