Your Story is Too Unique
Not to Share!
You’ve got one chance to have a great wedding ceremony… and what makes a great wedding ceremony is happy and engaged guests.
The one thing that’s guaranteed to keep their interest is a good story… your story. And what is seldom told at a traditional wedding is… you guessed it… YOUR STORY!
With the typical ceremony you might get “How to have a great marriage.” Your guests might get to hear a quote from the officiant’s latest Google search. But what you want is a wedding people are glad they came to. They’ll be glad they came to your wedding when they hear your story.
So why not make it a StoryBook Wedding?

Rick Brown is one of the best when it comes to an Officiant for a wedding ceremony.
He has a way of making everyone feel welcome, relaxed, and be able to be involved. He can be comical and serious. He tells the love story in a way it’s never been told and makes it very interesting, keeping the guests intrigued and wanting to hear more.
Rick is very easy and willing to accommodate what the groom and bride want for their wedding. He makes sure you know he is there for you. I would recommend Rick to anyone. He is one of a kind.

Rick did a phenomenal job as our officiant!
We really like how he seamlessly incorporated our relationship history and a verse from our favorite song into the ceremony!
By doing that it kept the crowd engaged in the event and we got so many compliments afterwords! 20/10 recommend!

Frequently Asked Questions
I can’t answer all the questions you have about your wedding (sorry, but you’ll have to figure out dresses and tuxes and venues on your own), but I can answer a few quick ones you might have.
What Areas do you serve?
Augusta County and the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia are my primary areas of service. But…I’m always open to other locations if the date and time work. If you want a StoryBook Wedding it doesn’t hurt to ask and we can negotiate from there!
How far in advance do I need to book ?
The sooner the better. (You knew I’d say that, right?) Here’s why: First, the sooner you check on your wedding date the better chance you have that it will be open and you can secure me as your officiant. And Second, the more time you have to get your StoryBook script just right, the better your ceremony will be.
How do you accept Payment?
Zelle and Venmo are the easiest ways to pay. Once we’ve signed a contract with each other I’ll contact you with the information you need to pay.
