Grover is the best!

Grover was fantastic before, during and after our wedding day. He kept us informed on what we needed to do, and was very patient, understanding and considerate of all that we wanted to have said. He made our day incredibly special, personal and fun! Grover has a unique and impactful way of making things heartfelt, while bringing in a special humour that lights up the lives around him.

“Let’s have a conversation”

Grover took all my anxiety and nerves away when he stood up with my husband and I at the altar and said “I want to make this more of a conversation”. It was so in character for Grover to instantly find a way to make everyone comfortable and take the formalities and pressures out of what could be a very stressful thing. Grover was also able to get some really key qualities about my husband and I to make the service more personal and showed a great ability to be flexible. For example, learning that the ceremony was at 4:15pm instead of 3pm the day before and being able to adjust his schedule to still make it.

The most perfect elopement officiant!

BigRev was responsive both leading up to our ceremony and after as we sorted some paperwork on our end. The ceremony was exactly what we wanted - no religion and a celebration of our partnership.

Grover did an an amazing job officiating our wedding! He met with us before to get to know us and wanted our ceremony the way we envisioned is. The words before the ceremony were lovely and everyone got so emotional with them. I appreciate his support for our big day!
