    We had the absolute pleasure of working with Married by the Sea Captain as our wedding officiant, and we truly couldn’t be more impressed. From our first call, he took the time to ask thoughtful and meaningful questions about our relationship, and it was clear right away that he genuinely cared about creating something personal and special for us. When the wedding day came, it felt like he had known us for years. The words he spoke were so authentic, heartfelt, and perfectly tailored to who we are. He brought such kindness, calm energy, and sincerity, and made the entire ceremony feel effortless. There was a beautiful originality to the way he led the ceremony, full of personality but without a single moment feeling gimmicky. It was touching, genuine, and completely us. We are so grateful he was a part of our day. If you are considering Married by the Sea Captain, we promise you will not be disappointed.
