Below are some recent reviews of my services. Please feel free to peruse my reviews at the source by visiting my pages on The Knot, WeddingWire, or Google.
For the TL;DR crowd, I made a helpful word cloud of the most common adjectives (plus a few choice nouns and verbs) used in my reviews.
Having Tim as the officiant was a pure stroke of luck! Tim was my student ($#) years ago and found me on Facebook. Once I learned about his little business and read his story, I KNEW he would be perfect for my son and his now-wife. Tim looks and sounds so professional. His personal touch during his service makes it seem as if he has known the couple for years. As his teacher, I am very proud of him. As the mother of the groom, I am thrilled at how perfect he was, and how happy the couple was, by all he had to say. I would recommend (and have) him to anyone who is just not suited to a church service.
We want to thank Tim for helping make our wedding day a day we’ll never forget. He was definitely our source of calm during the ceremony. The reading he prepared was perfect, and we got so many compliments from our friends and family about him. If you’re looking for a personal, unique and beautiful ceremony, Tim’s your guy. Thanks again, it was great having a friend up there with us, along with the soothing sounds of Route 8 of course. Love, Joe & Leah
I was mesmerized by every word. This was definitely not the standard wedding prattle. Tim’s message was contemporary, realistic and filled with love and hope for Melanie and Ted’s future together. Just beautifully done. I love Melanie (my niece) and Ted and were so happy Tim officiated so skillfully.
Tim Greathouse is possibly the best wedding officiant I’ve yet experienced. He is an old friend of ours, so it’s possible we are a tad biased, but there can be no question that he has a talent for public speaking; his voice is appealing and his way with words and choices for literary quotation are impeccable. Also, as anyone can see, he’ll look good in your wedding pics. He’s got charisma and excellent taste. I cannot imagine anyone regretting having him as their wedding officiant.
I have witnessed the same depressing, objectionable, and dogmatic wedding sermons that drove Tim to become a wedding officiant. For him to offer a positive, non-religious sermon would fill a need many couples are after. But he does so much more than that. He provided a sermon that was breathtakingly eloquent, customized, and inspiring. Not even the Les Miserables passage he read compared to his own writings within the ceremony. I mean that. By not hemming himself to any religious doctrine, Tim is free to weave a sermon that perfectly fits the bride and groom, and it’s this weaving that Tim does best, and better than anyone I have seen perform at a wedding. He’s in a class of his own. The number of people who commented unprompted to me what a fantastic sermon he delivered was remarkable. Anyone planning a wedding today owes it to themselves to book Tim. If you do, you’ll be on this testimonial page next, trying to figure out just how to put your enthralled satisfaction into words.
Tim made our special day even more beautiful. The ceremony was moving and allowed everyone to comfortably share our love and commitment to each other. Tim was perfect, the ceremony he wrote was absolutely suited to us. His detailed questionnaire let us tailor our wedding to a T. I can’t adequately put into words what a great officiant he was. If you want your wedding to be a rapturous embodiment of your love, choose Tim!
Tim was far and away the best wedding officiant we could possibly have hoped for. He chose an absolutely perfect and very meaningful reading for us. He did everything he could to make our wedding perfect and personal for us, and we could not have made a better choice than Tim. There is nothing he could have done better – everything was just right for us. Melanie and I both recommend him with 100% confidence.
I was truly impressed by the heartfelt ceremony that you performed yesterday. I don’t believe I have ever been to a wedding where I was moved or even impressed with the Officiate. Being in love and proclaiming this love to your friends and family, the true purpose of a wedding, should be personal and memorable. I feel you truly achieved the essence of the modern couple while not losing touch to an age old tradition. I look forward to your personal touch when Sara and I proclaim our love for each other in front of our friends and family.
Thank you so much for putting in words that not only we could relate to, but also for those that were there to witness David and I committing our lives to one another. I had so many comments about “I really felt what you were saying '' It spoke from the heart and it etched it into our souls. Also, my family thought it was such a special touch to have my mother and grandmother mentioned in such a unique and respectful way. Once again…thank you and thanks for putting us both at ease with your talent & professionalism.
Thank you so much for such a touching ceremony! We were given so many compliments on how well the ceremony was executed and how much everyone really enjoyed you and the words you chose to say. It was everything we were looking for in a ceremony and more. The words that were said fit us to a tee and we couldn’t have been happier and more pleasantly surprised then not knowing exactly what was going to be said that day made everything that more special. We can not thank you enough for such a wonderful ceremony! We look to you as a good friend and we will always hold that day close to our hearts! Thanks for the love, laughter, and tears!
