Beautiful and Classic Wedding Ceremonies in Fort Lauderdale, Miami and The Palm Beaches

We organized this wedding from abroad so it was very risky not knowing who to have marry us, this role can make or break a ceremony. My husband was very anxious about this part as it was the most important part for him. Charles was brilliant, very helpful, and quick with responding to emails. He was calm, very pleasant and adapted to all the guests English humor considering he had never met anyone of us before. He was kind, considerate and had a wonderful nature. Due to not living in the country I met him half an hour before the ceremony and I instantly felt very confident in him. He made our ceremony for us without a doubt. His choice of words for the ceremony we particularly liked. A really nice touch was we got to keep a copy of our ceremony in a bound folder. I have no qualms whatsoever in recommending Charles and would happily recommend him for a wedding.

I must say that I am a very picky person who has a hard time making decisions, especially when it came down to planning my wedding.

I had interviewed a few Officiants/Pastors and when I met with Rev. Charles Gilbride, I knew he was the one and I looked no farther.

Mr. Gilbride was a very sweet, caring and hardworking man. It didn't matter how many emails I sent him, he ALWAYS answered them within a fast time frame.
My husband and I wanted to create our own vows, but really didn't know where to start. Mr. Gilbride was always there to help us and always sent samples of what we talked about. He made all the changes/alterations that we asked of him...with no complaints.

I wanted Mr. Gilbride to wear something special in which I described to him, and on his own he looked it up online and sent me different samples to choose from.
As the time got closer, and I had so much to do that I got overwhelmed with all of the other wedding planning stuff and never really got back to him in time to have my "something special" made and sent.
To my surprise on my wedding day; Mr. Gilbride had already ordered it and was wearing it!!

Mr. Gilbride is the type of man that goes above and beyond the normal expectations!!

A day before my wedding, he made himself available on such a short notice, to perform a rehearsal. =-] Everything turned out great!!

On my wedding day, Mr. Gilbride arrived early, looked great and preformed an amazing ceremony!! Not only was My husband and I extremely happy with his services... I got more compliments on our ceremony than any I did on any other part of my wedding!!

After our wedding, I was dying to see the photographs and videography of the wedding but it was going to take at least a month for my photography company to get me an initial CD of the pictures.... to my surprise, once again, the first pictures that I got to see where ones that Mr. Gilbride took himself and he had sent them to me in an email. I was extremely happy!!

In a closing statement, if you want perfection, a hard working, dedicated person... than look no farther, Rev. Charles Gilbride is the one to hire!!

Fort Lauderdale Beach, FL

Rev. Charles Gilbride was amazing! We came to Florida not sure if we could even get married while on vacation. I had contacted Rev. Gilbride a couple days prior to our vacation and he was great, he gave me information I wasn’t sure of and lead me in the right direction. When I finally contacted him to let him know we were able to get married (because we are from out of state) he quickly sent me the required documents for me and my husband to sign and quickly returned my phone calls to set up a time and a day. I would recommend Rev. Gilbride to any and all who ask about our beautiful day. Thank You Rev. Gilbride for making our day so stress free and wonderful!!!!!
