Reverend Tanya K. Young

Rev. Young was wonderful! She responded quickly to all of our questions, and made our search for the perfect officiant so much easier. We knew from the very first email that we received back from her that we wanted her to marry us and share our special day with us. She provided several different cermonies for us to choose from and they were all beautiful. We also performed the Blessing of the Stones, in which she read a beautiful blessing as we made wishes along with our families and tossed seashells into the ocean. Rev. Young was open to suggestions in order to make our day everything we ever wanted. We highly recommend any bride and groom to contact Rev. Young! She will help make your special day a dream come true! - Mark and Felicia

We found Rev. Young by chance and after one phone call to her we were done looking. The ceremony selections were incredible and it did not take very long to choose one that put everything you are feeling that day into words.We are an older couple(late 50's) so children and grandchildren were all present and Rev. Young was sure that they all played a part in the wedding right down to the sand ceremony which by the way is a must have.We were wed on the beach in Nags Head MP 10.3 in front of a sand castle the grandchildren had made earlier that day.We love Rev. Young so very much as did my family.Your wedding will not be complete without her.Scott and Paula

We wanted a non-denominational ceremony on the beach. She provided us with several ceremony samples, and we picked verses from several different examples. Everything went smoothly and she was wonderful!

We actually contacted a couple different Ofiiciants and Rev. Tanya Young is the only one that was to respond immediately. She was very helpfull. We had many questions and she was patient with us and helped us with everything we needed.

Rev. Young was the absolute perfect person to conduct my wedding ceremony. She was thoughtful, caring, and really made an effort to give my husband and I our dream ceremony.

After our wedding, countless family members approached my husband and I to compliment our choice of Reverend Young. They all noted the way in which she spoke, knew us, and her genuine happiness for our new marriage.

One of my personal favorite parts of Rev. Young was the freedom my husband and I had in creating our ceremony. I will always remember the words that were spoken on my wedding day because I played such a large role in creating them.

Tanya was one of the first officiants we contacted and it was clear from our first contact that she was the choice. Her professionalism and knowledge put us at ease throughout our wedding planning and ceremony. I cannot imagine that there is a better officiant on the Outer Banks.

I called Rev.Young from a book my sister gave me when she came back from her Outer Banks vacation. After about 5 minutes into the conversation I just knew I wanted her to marry us. Rev.Young was up front and answered many questions about the wedding. Rev.Young always called me back and emailed me whenever I needed something. Rev.Young sent me about 30 different wedding ceremonies to look over and I was able to pick & choose the ones I wanted for our special day. I met Rev.Young the day I got married and all I can say is that she is one special person whom I will never forget. She made our Wedding Day very very special and all my family and friends who attended said they will never forget the service because it was so beautiful. Please give Rev.Young a call you will not be disappointed! Thank You Rev.Young!

Rev young was great!! We are from out of state and came to get married. Rev young was able to help with other arrangements and suggest things. We changed location after we got there and she was flexible. Emailed us some ceremonies and we could pick ours. It was so nice having her ! Would definitely recommend her! Everything was great!

Reverend Young was fantastic! She made us feel so comfortable. She sent us different ceremonies and had us piece together our own ceremony. Reverend Young helped us create a very personal ceremony that not only we loved, but that our family loved too! We also included the sand ceremony. It was the perfect touch to our beach wedding!

Rev. Young was fantastic. She arrived early and even though we were running late to start the cermony (note: 45 mins late), she was patient and never once made anyone feel like she needed to be anywhere else. Needless to say my family & friends had ample time to spend with Rev. Young and everyone raved about how wonderful she was. I couldn't have asked for better!!

Reverend Young was absolutely wonderful!
Thank you so much!

Rev Young did a great job with our ceremony. She sent us sample ceremonies and we used pieces from those to create our own. We also incorporated some other personal touches and had a wedding guest do a reading. She kept the ceremony short. She was also one of the more reasonable ministers in the OBX area.

Rev Young is wonderful! I knew I didn't want the tradition boring vows that are usually used. She gave us several ceremonies, religious and non-religious so we could piece together the ceremony that was right for us. The only negative thing was that I was 15 minutes late (I had no idea), and she kept telling my groom that it was okay, and she knew I was going to show up. It just made him more nervous. She is a great speaker and has a very nice, pleasant attitude.

Tanya has been doing weddings on the Outer Banks for several years and always does a wonderful service, her compassion and reverance for all things we hold dear to our hearts is a true testiment of her devotion.

Reverend Tanya Young is fantastic! We recommend her to all of our brides. She is very professional and personable. She is wonderful!

Rev Young is one of the kindest, caring people I have known on the Outer Banks.

I always enjoy working with Tanya! Her positive personality and warm approach come through in the way she conducts her ceremonies. She is very professional and I have nothing but great things to say about her!
