Below are some recent reviews of my services. Please feel free to peruse my reviews at the source by visiting my pages on The Knot, WeddingWire, or Google.
For the TL;DR crowd, I made a helpful word cloud of the most common adjectives (plus a few choice nouns and verbs) used in my reviews.
As a lesbian couple, we weren’t planning to have a ceremony at all until I stumbled upon Tim’s site completely by accident. After talking to him we changed our minds very quickly. He is an extremely nice guy and very easy to work with. He really puts a lot of effort into making the ceremony very personal and making you feel comfortable. We couldn’t possibly be any happier. Thank you so much Tim! Miriam & Kianna Bishop
We were looking for a spiritual, not a religious ceremony, something personal and genuine. Tim delivered beautifully. He included nice details about our lives and how we met. We felt that his words were carefully chosen and eloquently spoken. He was very professional and easy to work with. We highly recommend him.
When I was looking for someone to do my wedding I felt like I wasn’t going to find the person to do it well, let alone do it the way I wanted. I’m still extremely thankful to this day that I came upon Tim’s website. Not only did he help out with what needed to be done but helped us stay calm while putting up with our horrible event coordinators mistakes. The wedding talk he did for us was more than I could have ever asked for. I, as well as everyone there, were blown away at how well this was tailored to me and Irene and our lives. It captured our emotions of our relationship perfectly. Everyone there that we asked about the ceremony all said that out of all the weddings they have ever been to, that was probably one of if not the best talks they have heard. If I had a chance to do my wedding all over again – I will admit there would be some changes to how things were done. But choosing Tim as an officiant is one thing that would never change, and I will look back as one of the best decisions I made for our wedding. I highly recommend him to anyone else looking for something else than a basic, drab, copy and pasted wedding – done and heard to death. If you cannot afford for whatever reason, the money to hire him – take out a loan. You wont regret it. Thank you Tim for a wonderful and happy memory to look back on for the rest of my life. You did an awesome job, and I will always be grateful.
Tim is awesome! Book him now before somebody else does, because as the word continues to spread, Tim will be the officiant of choice in the area. We wanted OUR wedding, which meant that we wanted a contemporary, non-religious ceremony focused on US, and Tim gave us just that. Everything was perfect. We received so much positive feedback on the ceremony! If we had to do it all over again, we would pick Tim every time. Thanks for everything Tim. You made a very special day that much better.
We considered a lot of alternatives before stumbling upon Tim’s website and he didn’t disappoint. Tim used the information we provided to create a personalized ceremony that made us feel as though he had known us for years. We highly recommend him. He did great job.
We’d like to sincerely thank you for officiating such a beautiful ceremony for us. You were professional, patient and thorough. Your words touched the bottom of everybody’s heart. Our family and friends had nothing but great praises for your service. We are sure that the memory of this special moment will forever be with us. Best wishes, Yan & Yongsong
Tim performed our ceremony two weeks ago, and it was absolutely perfect. He is an extremely talented writer and speaker, and he did the ceremony just the way we wanted. I was most impressed by how thoughtful he was regarding what we wanted to be said and how we wanted the overall tone to be. I think Tim’s philosophy is spot on- the ceremony should be left to the bride and groom, as it is they who are making the commitment, and it reflects on them over anyone else. That is how we have always felt about it, and we feel very lucky to have found someone who agrees. Thanks Tim!
Tim is amazing! He performed our ceremony this past Saturday June 18th and I couldn’t have asked for anything more. Everything about it was perfect! He really personalizes everything and incorporates everything you tell him =) Our friends and family were so impressed with him! If you are looking for someone to perform a ceremony you will never forget, Tim is your guy! We would recommend him to anyone!
On June 4, 2011, Tim Greathouse united our daughter Jackie and our new son, Robert in marriage. I really can’t tell you how terrific Tim was with us as the parents, but especially awesome with the bride and groom. He was there for the rehearsal, thank goodness! We were running a little behind and Jackie refused to practice because it was bad luck! Tim just went on and handled the nervous couple with a velvet glove. He was very kind and patient. But the actual wedding day… Tim wove Jackie and Robert’s story in a fine tapestry with the final thread tying them to each other beautifully. Within his words we heard, or rather felt , humor, heart, love and warmth. It was beautiful. I can’t tell how many family and friends told us how much they enjoyed the ceremony and Tim’s special touch. Tim, THANK YOU! THANK YOU and THANK YOU. All the very best!
We were married in Cleveland, Ohio on May 28th 2011. That was actually the first day we met Tim and we couldn’t have been happier. I literally saw him for the first time walking down the aisle, and said Hi when I stepped in front of him. As nervous as I was, I felt very comfortable right away. Tim officiated with ease, enthusiasm, and made it fun. I actually put the ring on the wrong finger in my befuddled way, and he was able to make a joke and keep everybody laughing. It actually made the wedding something nobody will ever forget. Tim is very professional and really friendly. We would recommend him to anyone. Tim, we thank you so much for making our ceremony beautiful and memorable.
