My husband and I chose Rev. Eddie as our officiant for our destination wedding. As you may very well know, making the "right" decision regarding the person who will actually MARRY you is one of the most important decisions of the entire wedding planning process. Choosing Rev. Eddie was the PERFECT decision in every way. From the first phone conversation with Eddie (again, we live in another state that Eddie) all the way through the wedding ceremony, my husband and I were extremely impressed by the professionalism and organization that Eddie exemplified. Rev. Eddie's delivery of our ceremony was exactly what we has envisioned. My husband and I come from different cultural/religious backgrounds and wanted to hold a small intimate ceremony. Rev. Eddie took the time to read through the questionnaire we had completed and created a ceremony that was truly based on US and our relationship. The ceremony exceeded our every expectation! One last thought...my father is a "business man" in every sense of the word and it is not easy to impress him. After having talked with Rev. Eddie for a few short minutes...prior to the ceremony....my father said to me, "What a great guy!" As my father and I walked to our meeting point, before walking down the isle, my father continued to state great compliments about Rev. Eddie, clearly leaving a great first impression. After the ceremony, that great first impression only solidified and was shared amony our entire family and wedding guests in attendance. What a fabulous experience! Rev. Eddie, THANK YOU for leaving such a wonderful footprint within our lives and helping create such great memories to last a lifetime.

WOW! Is all I really can say...Eddie was amazing...truly made the ceremony perfect. I was nervous at first because we didnt get a chance to meet him face to face until like 1.5 weeks before wedding but we filled out the form he sent months before and just talking to him that time was like we knew him forever and he included everything in the ceremony that we wanted and more!!!!!! He is truly a blessing to anyone who gets to know him and everyone at the wedding couldnt stop talking about him! I cant say enough good! Eddie- Thank you from the bottom of mine and Piotreks heart.!! Oh and He even learned how to say a short welcome speech in Polish!! What a star! :) Thanks Eddie!

This was the most magical day in my life! Low key, backyard with family and friends and thanks to Eddie it was beyond what I expected. We met a couple times prior and he seemed to just "get us" it was fate I say! Our ceremony was exactly us funny, emotional, about family and the power of love! It was a night I will never forget. Thank you so much Eddie Rodriguez!

Reverend Eddie is the most professional of them all. He was super helpful in the whole process. He was always willing to talk to me and guide me through the process. He met with us whenever i asked him to. He got to know us and developed the most perfect ceremony for us that i could have dreamed of. Many guests asked about him and told me how beautiful the ceremony was. Im so grateful that he was the oficiant to unite us in matrimony. I love him!!

Where do I start? I read the earlier reviews and wondered if they could really all be true. Then I began interacting with Reverend Eddie and realized that every word of the positive, glowing reviews is true. He was flexible, professional, warm, and responsive to every email, every detail, before the wedding ceremony. Working with him was easy and fun. Then, the wedding came :) -- immediately prior to the ceremony, the bridal party and I were scattered and nervous because we were off our planned timeline and then Reverend Eddie stepped in and calmed us all down. He managed everything so well and the wedding was off to a lovely start as we walked down the aisle. Then came the ceremony that I heard about nonstop afterwards from the guests -- his words were meaningful, his style of delivery was perfect, his voice was clear and confident and carried exactly the tone I'd been hoping for in our interfaith ceremony. I honestly cannot say enough good things about the Reverend, his flexibility in working with us, and his ability to carry out the ceremony of my dreams. He was patient and thoughtful and incorporated material I'd hoped for while pointing out what else would work well. You will consider yourself blessed, as we do, if you can have Reverend Rodriguez officiate your ceremony. Thank you, Reverend!!!!

After years of standing by watching Rev. Eddie provide the most meaningful and touching ceremonies for my clients there was no question who would marry us when the day came. Rev. Eddie ceremony was perfect, he helped us honor Brian's father, "tie" in the Celtic tradition of the Hand Fasting ceremony as well as surprise us by including our two favorite family members, our lab Peyton & doberman, Madison with a perfect reading. Beyond the ceremony itself, he provided us with guidance that makes his participation in our wedding priceless. For years, I have told clients that there is no choice but Rev. Eddie if your ceremony is the important aspect of your wedding day and now that I am married myself I get to offer both personal & professional recommendations. Thank you Rev for all you have done and continue to do.

Rev. Eddie is AMAZING! I honestly can not put into words how much I loved this man! My husband and my ENTIRE wedding party and guests are still talking about how much they loved his ceremony. He is by far the best choice!

Rev. Eddie Rodriguez played a very large role in creating the very heart felt ceremony we always dreamed of. His words of wisdom and his delivery touched not only our hearts but all of our guests hearts as well. It was everything we could have ever asked for and more! Absolutely beautiful cermony and he it just a great soul and it showed. We would highly recommend him to any future couples!

Rev. Eddie performed my wedding ceremony, and he was amazing. We did a destination wedding, so we didn't meet him until a day before the ceremony, and yet he performed our ceremony so well we felt like we'd known him for years. It was very moving and had just the right balance between being serious and yet fun. There had been a hitch in the scheduling regarding our rehearsal, and so he made the trip up to Palm Beach to meet with us specially, which was really great of him. He also made a couple of great suggestions that really added to our wedding day. For example, he suggested I pin my veil to my dress since we were getting married overlooking the ocean, and it really made a difference. I didn't have to worry about it getting in my face and ruining our pictures, and it still looked great. He also told us that during our recessional we should stop halfway down the aisle and kiss again, which our guests loved and which also gave us some great pictures. Also, not that it matters too much, but he's very hip! He performed our ceremony on and iPad, which was fun. I would recommend Rev. Eddie to anyone. Thank you so much!

I cannot begin to thank Eddie for the amazing ceremony who performed! He is such a professional. Our ceremony was just perfect. I had a few of the male guests admit that they teared up a bit during the ceremony!! He really does know all the right words to say to make the ceremony very unique. Our ceremony was in English but I asked him to incorporate some Spanish for my side of the family and he did it beautifully. I also hired him to do our rehearsal and I'm so glad I did! He made sure everyone know what to do for the day of the wedding. If you're looking for an officiant and he's available for your wedding, BOOK HIM! Thanks so much Eddie!

Rev. Rodriguez was not only a consummate professional, he also made our day the most special. Our wedding ceremony is still talked about even a month after our wedding. I still get compliments on how beautifully he spoke. We have been truly blessed to have Rev. Rodriguez speak at our wedding. There are no words to describe how grateful we are that Rev. Rodriguez took the time to come and marry us.

Rev. Eddie Rodriguez was AMAZING!!!!! He is an individual that truly cares about making the ceremony personal to the couple and not a generic speech that is done at most ceremonies. I was a little worried on how our families were going to take not having a Catholic ceremony (which he also does), but everyone LOVED it!!! They laughed, cried, and got sentimental. Perfect!

Rev. Eddie is the absolute best. We're from Ohio and planned a destination wedding in Palm Beach and he did a fabulous job from start to finish. He is very professional and the ceremony was perfect. All our friends and relatives really enjoyed his sermon and what he had to say to the couple. If you are looking for someone to officiate your wedding, I would recommend Rev. Eddie in a second. He is the best!!!

I really don't know where to begin... We didn't have much of a chance to get to know each other before the wedding and rehearsal dinner, as we are from Cleveland and had a destination wedding in Florida. Despite that, I think there was an immediate comfort level and a great friendly rapport established between us and with our families. Rev. Eddie honestly could have passed for family if nobody had known otherwise. He is very laid back, pleasant, insightful, and an all around great guy. As far as the "services rendered", the ceremony rehearsal was a breeze, as he had a method of teaching us that was simplified and not in the least bit stressful. Easiest walkthrough that I have ever been a part of. Rev. Eddie joined us for the rehearsal dinner afterwards, and our family loved him, loved talking with him. As this was my first (and only) wedding, he provided much needed guidance on what to say and when to say it for thanking everybody for being a part of our wedding, and followed by saying grace before dinner. The actual wedding ceremony was nothing short of perfect. We didn't really know what we wanted of a ceremony, other than that we wanted it to be not typical of the traditional Catholic ceremony, and to be outside. There was a questionnaire on his website that we filled out in advance, and he also has previously spoken with my now mother-in-law on numerous occasions. Based off of that, he crafted a ceremony that suited us perfectly in every aspect, as if he had known us for years. It was light-hearted, direct, and joyous. I know I keep saying perfect, but it was. Rev. Eddie was a huge part of making our wedding so wonderful, so perfect. Despite the fact that we hired him, we were absolutely honored that he was involved, and we certainly would not have had it any other way. Honestly, Thank you!! And to those who are looking for someone to officiate their wedding, look no further, you will not regret it! Book him now before you lose the chance. Zach & Jennifer

Reverend Eddie was absolutely wonderful to work with. Despite extremely short notice, he was able to take our questionnaire results and create a wonderfully personalized and intimate ceremony. Even though we hadn't had a rehearsal, everything went so smoothly thanks to his guidance. He even coordinated with our colors. I really can't speak highly enough of our experience with him. He's fantastic!

Reverend Eddie made our wedding ceremony absolutely phenomenal!First, he completely managed the rehearsal. He told everyone where to stand, how to walk, gave special tips. All of the information he provided made things run very smoothly during the actual wedding.The best thing about Rev Eddie are the words he spoke during our actual ceremony. It was completely personalized and meaningful. I could not imagine anything better. To say the least, the ceremony was sheer perfection. Rev Eddie truly brought meaning to the start of our marriage. My husband and I received so many compliments from our guests on how much they enjoyed and appreciated the message that was spoken. Rev Eddie...thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. The words you shared will forever be remembered.

Rev. Eddie did a phenomenal job with our wedding! He really got to know my husband and I so that he could personalize the ceremony, and he definitely succeeded in that. The entire ceremony went so smoothly we were happily surprised since most do not. The content of the ceremony was just perfect! He listened to all of our requests and turned them into an amazing ceremony. We are dog lovers and he picked such a beautiful poem that my guests are still raving about! :) I recommend him highly! Thanks so much Rev. Eddie for making our ceremony perfect! -Danielle & Christian

Eddie delivered a wonderful service at our wedding. He was very easy to work with, and obviously knew what he was doing. He was very professional at both the rehearsal and wedding. Having met Eddie for the first time at our rehearsal, I did not know what to expect, but as soon as we met him, he made us feel welcome and special. He delivered a wonderful message at the ceremony. He helped make our day special!
