Expensive flowers will not get you photos with these genuine emotions. Rev. Phil will!

The Godfather of Chicago Weddings
There’s a reason he was on Netflix. His voice was made for ceremonies, and his experience and preparedness are second to none.
Even after meeting with a few other people, it became pretty clear to us that all of the aspects that we liked from different people came back to Rev Phil and/or others he had trained.
Rev. Phil is also incredibly responsive and organized. It may seem like a lot, but there is definitely a method to the madness. After having been in several other weddings as a groomsman, I have only grown to appreciate Rev Phil more and more.
The price is incredibly reasonable in comparison to others, especially given the quality of the deliverables.
I would not hesitate to recommend Rev. Phil to anyone

Charming, organized, perfect for any couple
PICK REVEREND PHIL. He did an absolutely FABULOUS job officiating our ceremony with a 28 person bridal party and WE COULD NOT HAVE HAD A BETTER OFFICIANT. It’s so clear online how funny and charming he was, and that definitely shows through in a personalized ceremony, but I honestly think an equally valuable asset was how organized he was. He ensured EVERY SINGLE PERSON in our bridal party, and parents and grandparents, knew exactly what to do, when, and with grace. He gave tips on how to stand at the alter, when to smile for the camera etc. Everyone loved him.
I still get compliments on how personal our ceremony was. People keep saying if you didn’t know one or the other of us, you do now, and that they felt involved in our story.
I frankly think he should charge more for the value he provided. Your ceremony will be flawless with Phil.

We were very unsure of what type of ceremony we would like. A mixture of tradition and uniqueness is what we decided on, and Rev. Phil Landers provided just that! With his many options for your personalized ceremony and helpful suggestions, we got just the ceremony we wanted. Our guests loved that we shared our love story with them and we heard over and over again how the ceremony was like none they had ever been a part of before. Thank you Rev. Phil for providing a wonderful start to one of the happiest days of our lives!

What a day!
Can’t believe it’s already been over a month! Nothing but compliments from all our guests and we had an absolute blast! We couldn’t have pictured a better day!
Rev. Phil put in a lot of effort in helping us get the ceremony together. He worked with us over the course of a few multiple-hour long sessions to tailor the ceremony so we really felt connected to the process.
The ceremony was an appropriate length, had high energy and balanced fun and seriousness. The ceremony centered on us and told our story to guests but also had some surprises in there for us too!
