Nathan McLaren and Heather Burton

“Rick did an amazing job on our ceremony. He was very thorough and spent a lot of time making sure it was exactly how I wanted it. He even made some last minute changes for us. He stayed in contact with me the whole time and put together a beautiful ceremony for us in about a month.”

“Rick and Deb were awesome. They made everything perfect for our wedding. To me it felt like they went far and beyond to make it perfect. They are just generally nice people who truly make it your day and make it about you. I'd recommend them to anyone. Very professional, organized and detail oriented. We got the whole package with them and the pricing was great. If you want your dream wedding this is the organization to go with. We also got a friendship out of it.”

Grace and Mary

“Absolutely the best experience! An absolute pleasure to work with! Rick has a ton of knowledge and experience which gave me the reassurance I needed that our special day would be great! He never hesitated to offer help when I was overwhelmed. Not only was our experience great but he and his wife are just great people in every aspect. I couldn’t of asked for anything more. The attention to detail made all the difference! We loved every minute of working with him! Absolutely remarkable service!”

“Rick officiated our elopement this weekend and he was wonderful! From the very first phone call, to the day of the wedding, his experience was clear and he was incredibly helpful! We are so grateful to Rick, and highly recommend him for future brides and grooms!”

Jason and Ashley

“Rick was ALWAYS available for ANYTHING. He helped with our vows with care, kindness, and expertise not many people possess. He helped us with our ceremony space, planning our trip, getting our license - he was even an ear to listen when things went awry. In any given disaster (and we had many) he’d say “if that’s what it takes” and get whatever needed to be done, done. Rick is an incredible human, as is his wife, and my husband and I are so blessed to have him as our officiant and friend.”

Rachel Rosenberg

“I wish I could give Rick and his wife, Deb, a million stars. He went above and beyond in every sense. He helped us with our vows, our ceremony space, planning our trip, getting our license, he counseled both of us - he was even an ear to listen when things went awry. Rick is a wedding wizard and my husband and I are so blessed to have had him as our officiant. We will cherish the time we had with him before and during our wedding for years to come.”

Rachel and Ben

“I was absolutely blown away by the thoughtfulness of Rick during the process. He kept me up to date every step of the way. He went with every change that was made and helped very much. He arrived at the venue early and was very understanding that I was running late. Super thankful that Rick made my day perfect. I would highly recommend.”

Savanna

“I wish i could give Rick 10 stars! Our ceremony was beautiful and Rick did everything he could to make sure that it would be! He was always there to think of everything that we didn't. We knew from the beginning he just wanted us to have the wedding of our dreams. We hired an officiant but ended up with an amazing friend. I couldn't be more thankful for Rick and Deb. If you're looking for someone and you're on a budget then these are your people! Thanks y'all!!”

Marsha and Jimmy

“We called Rick less than a week prior to our anticipated elopement date. We had no idea where to start, and Rick was there for us and guided us through the entire process from picking the venue to helping with vows. He completely customized our wedding ceremony with ease and beauty. He was extremely accommodating and generous and super helpful. He treated us like family and we couldn't imagine having our day without him and his lovely wife. He didn't skip a beat. We couldn't be more grateful.”

Morgana & Jeese

“Rick was the officiant at our wedding and he did a phenomenal job! The ceremony was beautiful and exactly what we had hoped and dreamed of for our wedding. He was wonderful to work with and made sure the ceremony turned into exactly what we wanted. Rick arrived with plenty of time to spare and was very pleasant and warm. We enjoyed having him and his wife join us on our big day and I definitely recommend using him. I couldn't imagine having used any other officiant for our day.”

Staci Roberts

“Rick and his wife are two awesome people! Rick helped us with everything we needed at each step and made sure we were doing all the right things while also giving us great advice. The keepsake book that he made for us was amazing. We can relive the day over and over. If you are needing someone for your ceremony then Rick is your guy!”

Aaron Gaubatz

“Rick was wonderful to work with. He was available to talk about the ceremony and made suggestions that made sense based on his years of experience and the varied services he had performed. He was caring, making the process enjoyable, not stressful. His wife Deb was available to shoot some extra photos and we are certainly looking forward to seeing them soon. Rick and Deb, it was a pleasure. Thank you very much! The service was perfect. Will share photos when available.”

Edward and Karen Thoren

“They were easy and fun to work with and helped make everything simple and a breeze to go through, the ceremony was fluid and wonderful, the scripts were great and overall we would recommend Special Wedding Ceremonies to anyone looking for a great officiant.”

The Jollys

“Rick was simply amazing! Felt like we knew him forever! He made us feel special and made sure the ceremony was personalized just for us -- definitely nothing cookie cutter about it. Would recommend 10/10 to anyone in the area. And his wife was just the sweetest.”

Katelin Shannon

“Rick and his lovely wife are great! We arranged for a short notice elopement and Rick was very attentive to our request and very helpful with suggestions. My husband and I were overwhelmed at the kindness that Rick and Deb bestowed upon us. Everything was done in a professional and comfortable manor. Their service price was the best around, but more importantly, we wasn't only provided with a beautiful ceremony, we gained a friendship! I highly recommend Rick Henry for wedding services.”

Chris & Amy Hooker

“Rick was very professional and exceptionally helpful on every process. He was on point on every request and always did what he said. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a little guidance on this process and someone to hold your hand through everything. He and his wife were a pleasure to deal with.”

Kristy and Anthony

“Rick is very professional and considerate. My husband and I could not have asked for a better experience. Although we did not give him much notice beforehand, he still did everything in his power to make it a day to remember! He even went out of his way making phone calls to the register of deeds so when I got there everything would be ready to go. Any questions you have he will answer, without getting agitated. I would recommend Rick to anyone and his wife was very pleasant and sweet as well!”

Alyssa & Matthew Blanton

“Rick is very thorough and pays close attention to the details that mattered the most. When we had a question he had no problem with taking the time to answer quickly. His templates are amazing to use. He is very easy to work with and shows great concern for what the bride and groom wants. He is not afraid to push where it is needed and has really great ideas to help keep things more organized and flowing. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant!”

Matt and Andrea Ward

“He was very polite and informative. Willing to work with us to get what we wanted just right. Took his time speaking to us about our up coming wedding, nothing was rushed.”

Cherry Suggitt

“We gave up completely on having the ceremony we wanted and accepted that we had to just settle on what we could get. Our dream was crushed until we received a call from Rick. Our date was less than a week away and he organized the whole thing and made our dream happen. I’ve never worked with such a pleasant, caring person. He had every detail exactly as we asked for. I HIGHLY recommend this company. Excellent people, excellent ceremony. Thanks for everything.”
