Do YOU Need a Wedding Officiant/Minister for YOUR Special Day?

Many couples have a hard time finding a Minister to marry them if they are living together prior to marriage, if they have been married before, if they don't belong to a particular church affiliation or religion and if they don't go through weeks of pre-marital counseling.  Marriage is inherently a unique relationship between a man and a woman and my only requirement is that couples truly love each other and have a sincere desire to be married.  That's it!

My name is Pam Powers Moore and I am an Ordained Non-Denominational Christian Minister, licensed to officiate weddings in East Coast States (West Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and more).  I am sincere, easy-going and flexible and will do everything within my power to make YOUR day special... just the way YOU want it ! I am available to travel to any location you choose and distance is not a problem. It's YOUR day and I will work to help turn your dream into a BEAUTIFUL reality!.

BASIS FOR MARRIAGE:

Weddings are fantastic, but Marriages are Wonderful.  And why are they Wonderful?  Because they are ordained by God.  Marriage was instituted by God Himself as declared in Genesis 2:18.  "It is not good that a man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him".  Thereupon God created woman of man's own substance and brought her to the man.  Our Lord Jesus honored marriage by His presence at the wedding in Cana of Galilee.  And He confirmed it as a divine ordinance and a union not to be severed when He declared, "Therefore what God hath joined together, let man not separate".  Matthew 19:6.   Moreover, the apostle Paul set forth the sacred and exalted nature of marriage when he likened it to a mystical union that subsists between Christ and His Church.

VENUE:

I am an ordained Non-Denominational Christian Minister licensed to officiate weddings and other life event services.  I provide not only a quality product, but also a QUALITY EXPERIENCE and am professional in every way.  My services are ALWAYS about YOU and my goal is your complete satisfaction.  I will work with you to write YOUR story and I will make it a true feature of the day rather than just a ceremony that accomplishes a mission.  Your ceremony will not only be one your guests talk about when they see you, but it will be one that is remembered for years to come.  It will be truly unique, truly reflective of your personalities and your story, and it will give your guests a gift of inspiration, of laughter, and of joy for you. 

I am prepared to perform your wedding ceremony or vow renewal in any location you choose, whether it be outdoors, in a church, or in the comfort of your own home.  I will travel anywhere you would like to have your wedding and distance is not an issue.  The love you share is a gift from God, and you are His special gift to each other.  It would be my privilege to perform your wedding ceremony under His blessing and to not only offer you a fantastic wedding, but help you begin a wonderful marriage... a dance between three partners; you, your bethrothed and God Himself.  "A cord of three strands is not easily broken".  Ecclesiastes 4:12.

I offer a full-service customized wedding ceremony, personalized to your style and taste and am prepared to perform either a traditional or contemporary service, or if you prefer, a nice blend of the two.  I write Religious, Non-Religious, Inter-faith, and/or Multicultural ceremonies and will do everything within my power to make sure your wedding day is perfect in every way.  And, if yours is a Theme Wedding, I can write a ceremony to correspond with that, as well.  The possibilities are endless.  Writing and public speaking are my strong points and this is where I do my best work.  I like to talk with my couples, get a feel for their thoughts and feelings as to what they would like their wedding to portray and then write a ceremony that speaks for and about them, both as individuals and as a couple.  Depending upon your location, we can handle the pre-marriage consultations by phone, by mail,  or in person and I will work with you to make sure every detail is just as you want it.  Your personalized ceremony will be written specifically for you and your betrothed, a beautiful reflection of you, your beliefs, your personal desires and the love you share. I can incorporate family customs and special traditions such as fisherman's knot, jumping the broom, oathing stone, or anything that would make your ceremony unique and meaningful to you.   You may choose your vows from examples I provide or, if you prefer, you can write your own.  We can include a Unity Candle, Sand Ceremony, Water Ceremony, Rose Ceremony, Breaking the Glass Ceremony, special readings, poetry, favorite scripture, anything you choose, and once written, I will either mail or hand deliver the ceremony draft to you for approval or further editing.  My goal is your complete satisfaction and I will go the "extra mile" to capture the heart and soul of your relationship, making the finished product meaningful, memorable, and UNIQUELY BREATHTAKING.

I bring my own PA, which works with or without electricity, so your guests will be able to hear the ceremony even if your venue does not provide one.  It is small, self-contained and unnoticeable in photos.  Following the wedding, I will provide you with a Wedding Portfolio, a Keepsake Marriage Certificate suitable for framing and a beautiful booklet containing a copy of your personalized ceremony.   I will also file your marriage license with the proper town or city authorities and provide you with a copy of the same.  A lot of times couples will have family members ask the blessing at the meal following the wedding, however if you would like me to perform this function, I would be honored to do so.  My ultimate goal is to provide you with a quality experience and one that will leave a memory that is equally treasured years down the road, as it is the day following your wedding.

I am sincere, easy-going and flexible and will do everything within my power to make YOUR day special... just the way YOU want it.   

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:

Most of the comments I receive come from parents, relatives and wedding guests who sincerely thank me for a unique, heartfelt ceremony and memories that will last a lifetime.

One mother told me, "I will never experience another wedding service more beautiful than this one.   As I listened to your words, I kept wondering if you could possibly say something better or more meaningful than what you had already said, and each time you did.  It was wonderful.  Anyone would be privileged to have you perform their wedding ceremony."  

Another person told me "My family and I flew all the way across country to attend this wedding, and hearing your words made it worth every mile".

COMMENTS FROM HAPPY COUPLES:


Andrea and Patrick Galapon ~ Anstead, West Virginia.  "Pam is absolutely brilliant at what she does. She came all the way to Glen Ferris Inn and Hawks Nest to do our ceremony. Months before the wedding she sent me a package with different types of cereomonies and vows to choose between. She also let us pick two readings for our ceremony. We used one of the readings that she had, and then my husband actually found the second. Any request that we made, she fulfilled. Pam goes above and beyond to help in any way she can, and she makes the ceremony very personable. I'm so glad that she was apart of our special day, and I very much appreciate everything she did for our wedding. **Thank you Pam!**"

Magen and Josh Rutherford ~ Raleigh, North Carolina.  "I'm glad to say that I was the first to have Pam do a wedding. I got married on April 16, 2011. She made my day completely wonderful. I will never forget how important it was for us to have someone who understood what we wanted and could deliver it perfectly. She sent me several different types of ceremony vows to allow me to chose what I thought to be fitting. As well as she allowed me to alter my choice to place quotes from the Bible that were very meaningful to me. I don't believe my day would've been as grand without her."

Brian and Beverly Chidester ~ Buckhannon, West Virginia.  "We loved the ceremony. It was by far the prettiest vows and poems we have ever heard during a wedding. You have without a doubt made our wedding extra special. We felt such a blessing placed on our marriage from you! Thank you once again although words hardly seem enough."

Cindy and Mark King ~ Fairmont, West Virginia.  "Pam performed our wedding ceremony on July 3rd 2011. She was given short notice (maybe a week) and very little to work with. We had to keep changing the plans and were still up in the air come the day of the wedding. Pam handled it all with great aplomb and complete calmness. We hadn't even met her in person before the wedding day. Only email and a few phone conversations. It turned out to be a beautiful ceremony, and we loved her speaking. You could tell she was very sincere and moved by her calling. I found her online and was a little worried, but she was a blessing. I couldn't have found anyone who could have done a better job! Thank You so much for making our day special. I think our families were quite impressed! Thanks Again, Cindy"

Amy and Robert Hawkins ~ Washington, Pennsylvania.  "Pam, thank you so much for being such an important part of our wedding!  It was such a pleasure to meet you and you did a wonderful job!! Robert and I were so thankful to have such a wonderful person marry us!  Everyone complimented me on how beautiful the ceremony was and Robert and I thought the same!  The surprise was awesome and I can't wait to see pictures!"

Amy and Neil Rollins ~ Belington, West Virginia.  "Thanks so much for a very memorable ceremony and the beautiful keepsake program. Much more than I expected!"

LET ME HELP YOU TURN YOUR WEDDING DAY INTO A TREASURED MEMORY.
