Love God. Love Others. Make Disciples.
Love God. Love Others. Make Disciples.
Weddings can be as simple or as elaborate as you want. We have ready-made services and ceremonies, or we can customize a service to be as unique as you are. Whether you want to have a service here in my office, at our church or at another church, in your living room at home, in the backyard, at the riverbank, or at any other venue, Rev. Gates is here to help and create the perfect ceremony for you.
As an Ordained minister with plenty of experience tying the knot, he knows just how important a memorable ceremony is. From the moment you meet Reverend Justin to the minute you walk down the aisle, he's here to help you celebrate your milestone with meaning.
Rev. Justin L. Gates does his very best to breathe life into your envisioned event. While he has plenty of pre-prepared sermons, he's happy to customize your service according to your beliefs and values. Whether you're hoping to get hitched at church, home, in his office, or at any other preferred venue, you can expect this seasoned celebrant to be there on time, ready to take your nuptials to the next level. Ceremony rehearsals are available upon request, ensuring you feel fully equipped as you embark on a brand-new chapter.
Currently, we are unable to host weddings in our chapel as it is in the process of being constructed and remodeled. However, our clergy are willing to travel to your location, or have the ceremony in our office. Soon, we will have the outdoor Garden of Matrimony open on the grounds of the Holy Trinity Gardens.
Hi!
I would be honored to have a part in Your special day. I am often asked in addition to being a pastor, “what do you do?” The simple answer is, I officiate weddings. However, I feel that does not entail ALL of what I do.
- I celebrate. Celebrating your love, your way, in a ceremony that is unique to you. There are no cookie cutter ceremonies, I try to tailor them to be as unique as the couple themselves. I like to celebrate your unity with grace and elegance.
-I unite. Uniting hearts, today and always bring such joy not only to me and the couples becoming married, but to all those who attend and have a part in this special day.
-I honor. There is a sacred bond between two souls who have found their way to each other. I take great honor in being a part of that uniting in matrimony.
May love, happiness and harmony always be yours,
-Fr. Justin L. Gates
