    Wedding Review

    Mr. and Mrs. Nelson are the sweetest people ever! They literally went above and beyond for our wedding. From Mrs. Nelson giving my mother a break and running our ceremony. Making sure we all walk in accordingly into the ceremony. To even adjusting our dresses and hair so we were all picture ready. Mr. Nelson shared beautiful words and even personalized it to make more about us and our background/culture. All of our guest could not stop talking about how beautiful the ceremony was! Highly recommend their services! You don’t want to miss out on these kind people they really resemble the meaning of love and long time unity! My husband and I look up to them a lot.

    The Wedding Preacher's reply:

    Wow! How precious. Thank you so much for those beautiful and kind words.

    Wonderful / relaxed / easy

    Lora Lea was very professional and answered any questions I had in a timely manner. She brought smiles to our faces, and she made us feel comfortable and relaxed the whole time.

    The Wedding Preacher's reply:

    Rachel,

    I am so sorry the weather didn’t cooperate for an outside ceremony but your beauty, grace and charm made it amazing and perfect.

    We contacted the Wedding Preacher and were greeted with warmth and a genuine desire to understand our wishes for our wedding ceremony. He takes the time to get to know you and is a wonderful and Godly man. His wife is as genuine as he is. It was important to us to have a meaningful, spiritual, ceremony making our life commitment to each other In the presence of God with our family and friends as witnesses. He delivered beyond our expectations! We highly recommend you consider him for your wedding!

    The Wedding Preacher's reply:

    It was MY PLEASURE to get to perform your ceremony and meet your precious family and friends. Thank you for you kind words.

    From our first meeting Gordon made us feel so comfortable and like we had known him for years. He was so sweet and professional throughout our entire experience. He made our wedding day very memorable with some cute humor, sweet stories, and prayers. Would highly recommend!

    The best !

    I love that he took the time and met with us to make sure he can personalize the service to fit us as a couple. His words were perfect and his tone of voice is comforting. He helped us with our nervousness and made sure to remember the timeline. I highly recommend him!

    We couldn't have asked for a better preacher for our wedding. We needed last minute service and flexibility due to the unique arrangements my husband and I made for our weeding day. LoraLea Nelson went above and beyond our expectations. The ceremony she performed at the end of the 15k my husband ran at Fair Park was beautiful! She remembered to add extra special wording at our request and sealed our union with perfection. We were so pleased and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to officiate their wedding. The family members that attended our wedding loved her too.

    My now husband and I planned on having a close friend marry us but he became ill and wasn't able to, so I turned to looking for someone. I read a lot of reviews and was very hesitant to hire a complete stranger for our wedding day. I submitted a request with The Wedding Preacher and almost instantly received a reply with answers to my questions. LoraLea Nelson called and emailed to touch base and set up an appointment to meet her. Let me just say, she is an amazing woman! Super nice, friendly, diligent and truly listens to how you want your wedding day! She's the type of person that after meeting you feel like you've been friends for years. She even personalized our vows and really made the ceremony even better than I could have imagined.

    I highly recommend The Wedding Preacher!!

    Gordon is such a treat to work with. We got so many compliments on our ceremony and what a great job Gordon did. Him and Lora Lea are such sweet and genuine people. He can talk about love so well because he has experienced a lifetime of it and that is evident. I highly recommend Gordon, he really shaped our whole ceremony and we are so grateful to him for that.

    The Wedding Preacher's reply:


    I just mailed your marriage license and was thinking about you and the beautiful wedding of which we were blessed to be a part. And then, wow, I just read the amazing review you posted. I’m so grateful. I was also grateful for the unexpected gratuity that I received after your ceremony. May God richly bless you and your marriage. Thank you so much.

    Our wedding day was absolutely PERFECT thanks to the wedding Preacher. Gordon did an amazing job he definitely set the mood during the ceremony. We are so blessed that he married me and my husband. Not only was his message amazing but also he wanted to get to know me and husband before he married us and we love that he did. His messages was everything we wanted and more! I would highly recommend the wedding preacher to everyone! Thank you so much for everything Gordon!

    The preacher & his sweet wife were a great help. I happened to somehow go down the aisle without the grooms ring and the preacher stepped right in and just so happened to have one as an extra. Lol. Great couple! Great job!

    Gordon was a great officiant. He is nice and friendly and wanted our day to go the way we want it to. He listens and takes in all information and opinions to make the day go as plan. My sister used him for her wedding a few years before, so I knew beforehand he would be good.

    Laura Lee was just the sweetest and made us feel comfortable. She's very personable and takes the time to get to know you as a couple. My now husband asked Laura if she could make the ceremony quick given the fact that our ceremony was held outside in 105-110 degree weather. She kept it short but very memorable.

    We knew right away when we spoke to Mr Gordon Nelson that he would be perfect! His mannerism, he was very attentive and cared about what we wanted . Very country feel to him and exactly what we wanted as we had a rustic themed wedding. We could feel he was genuine with every word that came from him and he made our celebration even MORE memorable as Everyone Loved him and complimented on what a heartfelt blessing he gave to our special day! I would absolutely recommend Mr. Nelson to anyone who wants to have a truly blessed service and give your guests a feeling of renewal themselves! I can’t thank them enough
    for his awesome services!
    Thankful to have found Him
