Congratulations on your engagement! I am a traditionally ordained minister with more than 40 years experience performing wedding ceremonies. Your wedding should be what you want it to be so I am happy to do religious, non-religious, or somewhere in-between ceremonies. Your ceremony can be personalized so that your wedding ceremony celebrates your journey together as well as your future. It would be an honor to officiate your ceremony. Premarital counseling is not required but I am a certified premarital counselor and that option is available if desired.
I wish you a long and happy life together!
What They're Saying...
- Rev Perry was just what we were looking for in an officiant. As two individuals with different belief systems, he was able to make us both feel heard, included, and respected in the ceremony and in the process leading up to it. As a couple, he was able to make us feel like we were his priority, even though we knew he had many other weddings happening around the same time! While we hired him the same way we did our other vendors, in the end it felt like we had someone who knew us and cared for us officiating our wedding ceremony which was very special.read moreread lessCarly H.6/15/2024

- Reverend Perry Hardison was absolutely wonderful officiating our wedding ceremony. His warm and heartfelt words truly made our special day even more memorable. We couldn't have asked for a better person to marry us. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for a genuine and caring officiant. Also, we did pre-marriage prep with Perry and it was worth it. Highly recommend to other couples.read moreread lessJessica M.4/18/2024
- Pastor Perry was great to work with. We used his services for premarital counseling as well as our officiant. Highly recommend the counseling as it not only Benefits you and your partner, but also Spend more time and get to know Perry and he gets to know you. He was very responsive and answered any questions we had. During the ceremony, Perry’s mic kept cutting out, but he did a great job adjusting his voice so everyone could hear. Would definitely recommend Perry for your weddingread moreread lessRebecca S.11/13/2023
- Perry officiated our wedding this September and we had an awesome experience! The communication was great throughout the whole process.

- Me and my now husband, Steven, are so happy with the services we received from Mr. Perry. Very informative with this being mine and Stevens first marriage. He didn’t leave us hanging with any questions or concerns. Very thankful to have a calm voice like his while you and your partner are freaking out in the back of our minds. Very calming. We highly recommend.read moreread lessAshley J.10/24/2022
- Perry was so great from the booking process he had an initial call with us and he really makes you feel comfortable and makes the ceremony what YOU want and that was what was most important to us. He emailed us back right away whenever we reached out and got our ceremony readings down to a T. He was so great the day of and we can’t thank him enough for being apart of it!read moreread lessPaige N.9/29/2022
- Honestly, could not ask for a better officiant. I told him exactly what we wanted and he delivered. He made rehearsal fun, and we met with him via zoom for the planning process and worked everything out within 15 minutes. IT was incredible! I am so thankful for Perry, he was the perfect guy for the job! Thank you so much!read moreread lessHolly B.9/19/2022
- Perry was awesome for our wedding in August 2022! He is kind, patient and has a wonderful way of making a group of people with nervous-excited energy become calm and at ease. He helped us create a ceremony with some religious components that we wanted but thoughtful to our relationship as a whole. He is extremely prompt, timely in his email responses, and easy to talk to. Highly recommend and we are very thankful to have had Perry be apart of our special day!read moreread lessKelly N.9/09/2022
- We loved working with Perry for our wedding ceremony! We wanted a non-religious ceremony that wasn’t too long. The ceremony he put together was perfect in length and content, and he even took a look at each of our self-written vows ahead of time to make sure they were similar in general format and length. At the rehearsal, Perry let us know about common slip-ups that might happen and how to respond to them, and he gave perfectly-timed reminders for each portion of the ceremony. He was such a calming, grounding, welcoming presence both at the rehearsal and during the ceremony! I highly recommend working with Perry for all of your wedding-related needs.read moreread lessMackenzie R.8/31/2022
- We loved working with Perry! He designed a lovely ceremony based on what my husband and I were looking for (incorporating some spiritual touches into a secular ceremony), and helped our whole ceremony run smoothly. He was easy to get in touch with and very responsive to our questions! Would happily recommend him to anyone.read moreread lessLane W.7/06/2022
- We had the pleasure of having Perry officiate our wedding and I could not be happier with our ceremony. Perry walked us through every step of the ceremony and had pre-made scripts for us to review depending on the type of ceremony we were hoping for. We were able to customize the ceremony as much or as little as we wanted. He also made sure to include personal details about our relationship and really made sure it was meaningful, and light-hearted (as we didn't want anything serious). He also walked us through the marriage license process and answered all of the questions I had. I highly recommend Perry! He is truly a joy to work with!read moreread lessJulie S.4/15/2022
- Perry officiated our wedding and he truly did an amazing job! Our family and friends all talked about how beautiful our ceremony was. We both felt like we have known him our whole lives just from a few moments of talking to him. I would highly recommend Perry for your wedding!!read moreread lessAbbey K.12/21/2021
- We had the opportunity to work with Perry for our wedding on a recommendation from our venue and he was such a delight. We had a planning meeting where we were able to explore the different ceremony options that we might be interested in and Perry was very patient and adaptable with us and easily able to translate our ideas into an elegant and flowing ceremony structure. At our rehearsal and on our wedding day he gave off the most comforting and calming vibes, ensuring that we weren’t too nervous and that he was there to guide us through our vows every step of the way. His experience showed not only to us but to our guests as well as they were very complementary of his delivery throughout and enjoyed getting to meet and spend time with him outside of the ceremony. He made our process so simple and smooth that we would highly recommend him to other couples in search of an officiant in the future!read moreread lessJess A.12/11/2021
- We were guests at a recent wedding officiated by Perry Hardison. It was one of the best ceremonies we had the pleasure to be a part of - and we are in our 60s. Perry struck a beautiful balance - it was personal to the bride and groom, engaged and acknowledged the role of the family and guests in this day, emphasized the different symbolism of marriage in the ceremony and feathered in the religious aspects of the ceremony. The duration of the ceremony was perfect as well - not too short or too long. If we were in need of an officiant, we'd definitely have Perry on a very short list.read moreread lessAdam O.11/11/2021
- We decided to have a video conference with Perry to see if we liked him and he was great. Good sense of humor, very nice, and open to whatever we wanted for our ceremony. We chose to have him officiate our wedding and he did a wonderful job. He helped us with the planning process and was very responsive any time we had questions or changes. He was prompt to the rehearsal and did a good job telling us what to expect, advice for day of, instruction to all our wedding party members, etc. On the day of he did a great job and I am so glad we decided to include him in our wedding.read moreread lessLauren L.5/07/2021
- Perry is an absolutely fantastic individual and officiant. He made our ceremony so special and personalized to us as a couple and our love story. Perry was adaptable and flexible with us while we changed our wedding from a big wedding to a small destination elopement due to COVID. I would recommend Perry to all.read moreread lessRebecca L.11/24/2020
