About
Hi friends. Thanks so much for spending your precious time learning more about me as the potential Pastor for your wedding. I am an ordained/licensed Pastor & have officiated over 1600 weddings, and I keep a journal/diary of every one. We will work together to make your wedding ceremony the very best possible. I am flexible, creative, with a good sense of humor, & strive for excellence throughout this exciting process. I have officiated weddings of all sizes & at various locations. I have also shared in some great "vow renewal" ceremonies. I do have sample ceremonies if needed as well. I certainly love seeing the wedding couple, family, & friends, basking in those special moments that will become lifetime memories. FUN FACTS: I, also, as a former college baseball pitcher, do sports broadcasting @ Charleston Southern Univ. (ESPN+ & ESPN 3); My youngest son is a pro golf tour caddy (now working w/Bubba Watson); My wife, of 43 years, sings in the Charleston Symphony Chorus; My older son speaks 6 languages & works for Apple in Shanghai, China. Blessings! Jp

Pastor John was a wonderful officiant for our beach wedding. He worked with us to develop the ceremony, taking into account our preferences. He is so kind and genuine, and his delivery was entirely professional. We had many children at our wedding, and even when things got a little out of hand, he maintained perfect composure. We couldn't have asked for better. Thank you Pastor John!

We needed someone last minute to officiate our wedding last year due to a last minute cancellation. I had 1 week notice to find someone and he happened to be available and travelled to us for a very fair price. Was professional and kept it short and sweet just like we wanted.

Pastor John is amazing! He did such a good job at making sure our ceremony script had everything we wanted in it. He some very clear during the ceremony and made eye contact throughout. He is very patient, listens, and asks questions to really get to know you as a couple. I think that is super important for an officiant because the first time we met was on wedding day, and he felt like no stranger. He also did our pre marriage counseling! Thank you again pastor john for yours services!

Pastor Peter was an absolute blessing for our New Year’s wedding. From the very beginning, he was incredibly helpful and kind, guiding us through every step of the process with patience and care. Our ceremony was small and intimate, and his friendly demeanor and lightheartedness made the day even more special. He went above and beyond to ensure we felt calm and prepared, and his warmth truly set the tone for our celebration. After the ceremony, he even offered to take photos of us, staying until we were ready to leave. We are so grateful to have had Pastor Peter by our side on such an important day. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and brings joy to your event, we wholeheartedly recommend Pastor Peter!
