We were lucky to have found Pastor Tomkin while he was still available. A couple he was working with changed their time, and so he was free, and he helped us from beginning to end. We had no idea how we wanted our ceremony to be set up... all we knew is that we wanted it in the Landmark Center. He had performed many wedding ceremonies there, so walked us through all the different configurations that the atrium could be set up as, and then was able to incorporate both our religious backgrounds in the ceremony. Neither me nor my fiance had a church that we regularly went to, but we have parents and relatives that are quite religious. I'm Lutheran and my fiance (now husband!) is Methodist, and Pastor Tomkin created a wedding ceremony that we were both really happy with. He also helped us find a guitarist, a photographer, and helped us find the readings we wanted. He even helped us with writing our own vows! We were first attracted to him because of his friendly manner on his website, but once we talked with him in person, we knew he was absolutely the officiant for us. My mom LOVED him (he made her feel so special as the Mother of the Bride!) and all our guests raved about his warm, friendly manner. I'd recommend him to anyone who is looking for a friendly, flexible minister who knows a LOT about how to please not only the bride and groom, but everyone in the wedding party, the ushers, the parents, and all the guests!
Pros: Very friendly and flexible, incredibly easy to talk to
Cons: Books up quickly
