The first time we met Frank was over a cup of coffee; he was easy to  talk to, had a great personality, and we knew he was the right officiant  to marry us.  A few weeks later, he was the man standing in the gazebo  at the Westmount Country Club in Woodland Park, NJ.  His ceremonial  speech was exactly what we had envisioned on our special day.  Frank  created a warm and loving environment for our family and friends.  Many  guests who gathered during our celebration commented on Frank's kind  words and were enlightened by the personal story he told to begin the  ceremony.  We would like to thank Frank again for a wonderful ceremony,  one we will cherish through our lifetime together. 

One of the greatest compliments I have received came on a night in  June of 2010.  I had been called on as a fill-in for another Reverend  who had become ill and was unable to perform a ceremony. I had arrived  at the Westmount Country Club a little earlier than usual to meet the  Bride and Groom for the first time to go over some last minute details  and then proceeded with the ceremony as scheduled. When the ceremony  concluded one of the photographers approached me and said he thought the  ceremony was great. Being a wedding photographer he had seen his fair  share of ceremonies and thought this one of the best he had seen. "My  oldest son is getting married in a couple of months", he said," and I  would love to have you there to perform the ceremony". Needless to say  that I was flattered and honored by these words. I officiated the  ceremony for Lisa and Eddie in August 2010 and then received this  message from Ed Kavanagh a few days later.

Frank,

Thank  you again for a beautiful ceremony on Sunday. Many people came to me  during the day to tell me how highly they thought of your words. Your  message was received by and affected the lives of not only the Bride and  Groom but of many people who attended as well.

Sincerely,

Ed Kavanagh

My husband and I do not belong to a church and were not sure who we  should trust to marry us in a way that would honor the tradition.  We  were referred to Minister Frank by the Far Hills Borough Senior Clerk  and, after meeting Frank only once, we knew he was the perfect person to  marry us.  He officiated the ceremony with a wonderful combination of  kindness, empathy and levity.  He shared a touching, insightful and  funny story to begin the ceremony that put everyone in attendance in the  perfect frame of mind and mood.  We couldn't have been happier with any  other officiant and thoroughly enjoyed toasting to our bond after the  beautiful and personal ceremony with our family and Minister Frank!

Thx again!

We cannot thank you enough for making the whole ceremony planning  process simple and stress-free.  From our first meeting, we knew you  were the right choice for an officiant.  You understood our vision for  the wedding and were ready, willing, and able to help every step of the  way.  You understood that simple and nonreligious did not mean boring  and impersonal.  Your passion for the job was evident to everyone in the  room.  We had guests coming up to us during the reception asking how  long we'd known you!  Thank you again for being one thing we knew we  wouldn't have to worry about on our big day. 

From the moment we met Frank, we were immediately comfortable with his  easy-going demeanor and likeable personality.  He was the perfect  balance of being a professional one would feel comfortable using for  such an important event, and someone who one would want to spend time  with in one's personal time.  Frank is knowledgeable in his craft,  timely in providing necessary information, and was responsive whenever  we had any questions.  As expected, Frank was great during the ceremony,  interjecting the appropriate amount of light humor and really kept our  guests' attention.  Several guests made it a point to provide to me  positive feedback on Frank's delivery.  We even invited Frank to stay  since he seemed to fit right in with our guests!  From start to finish,  Frank did a fantastic job, and we would not hesitate recommending him to  anyone!!   

Dear Reverend Frank
Thank you for a beautiful and meaningful  ceremony. Every word you spoke resonated with our beliefs. We are truly  grateful for the time and effort you put into understanding us as a  couple. You personalized the ceremony to fit our needs and made the  ritual significant to us and those we love. Everyone is still talking  about what a beautiful ceremony we had. It wouldn't have been possible  without you. Thank you!

With much gratitude and love,
