About Me
My name is Reed Tate
I received my minister's license back in 2018 but never had the opportunity to officiate weddings. Flash forward to summer of 2022, I had some friends of mine ask me to officiate their wedding. Of course, I said yes. How could I say no? Shortly after, some other friends asked me to officiate theirs. From that wedding, a total stranger asked me to officiate theirs! I figured it was time I made this a a part of the business. Which now brings us to: Weddings by Reed! I've been a writer and a poet for as long as I can remember, so I gain much joy from being able to write out and tell other's love stories. I look forward to helping many more couples share their story.
What to expect?
It's YOUR big day! I make everything as simple as possible to make your ceremony as stress-free as possible. My services are 'all-inclusive'. We can meet 3-4 times, but will meet as many times as necessary to ensure you're confident in your ceremony. If you have your own vows, great! If not, I can provide vows for you! The wedding can be religious, modern, traditional, humorous, short and sweet, and more! The ceremony can also be completely personalized to your liking, and either you or a trusted party would approve it (in case you want to be surprised). Let's get started!
