About Buddy
Florida's Coolest Wedding Officiant
With nearly 30 years of experience as one of America's Top 50 Wedding DJs, Event Host, & Motivational Speaker, I am often asked to perform wedding ceremonies. So, I do! I love bringing joy, love, and even a sense of fun (if you want it) to your ceremony. In 2005 I became an ordained Reverend in a non-denominational ministry so that I could perform ceremonies for those that wanted and needed this very personal service.
Why Choose Buddy?
I believe in love, I believe in commitment. Marriage is one of the world's oldest rituals, and you choose to become part of each other. You carry on a tradition of stability, care, and community. By marrying each other, you also make two families one. It's both a joyous and serious celebration of promise to each other.
Personally, I was single for a long time in my life. When I met my wife, Katrina, we "knew" we were right for each other. I hope every couple I'm honored to service finds the same happiness I've found. I bring that heart to your ceremony.
Denominational & Non-Denominational
I come from a Christian background with a Dad who deeply believed in Christianity. He volunteered in men's prisons sharing the gospel and hosted a weekly radio program in the 1990s/early 2000s called "Let's Talk Religion" in Tampa, I fully understand that couples bring their faiths to their love and marriage and I will work with most because it is the heart and love that matters. I do believe marriage is ordained by God. While highly personal, and I will custom tailor your ceremony to reflect that. I service all couples. We'll figure out together what is right for you and your ceremony along the way.
Let's Do This!
Your ceremony should reflect you, your taste, and your budget. I welcome couples from all walks of life. I have three packages, with fees starting at $399
Please reach out, and I'll be happy to send you more information to help you choose the ceremony that works for you.
