Reviews of Dr Kelsey Graham

Catie

Our families have different religious backgrounds, and we wanted our service to A) not offend anyone and B) be a reflection of our relationship. Kelsey is amazing and did both flawlessly. He's so agreeable and attentive. He met us before the wedding, we had an awesome conversation, and he came up with brilliant ideas to incorporate into our wedding ceremony. Our wedding was far from cookie cutter thanks to him. He even helped with a last-minute adjustment due to the weather. Our day was absolutely perfect, and Atom and I gained a wonderful friend in the process! We will always stay in touch with him no matter where our life together takes us. You get so much more than just a wedding officiant with him. We feel like our lives are better for meeting him and his wife!

This is coming from an aunt/planner's perspective. We appreciate all Kelsey contributed to our day. Our family make-up consists of different faiths (including some of no faith) and Kelsey made it possible for everyone of us to be comfortable & happy with the ceremony. I wish there was more than 5 stars to give Kelsey!!!! I always got immediate responses from Kelsey, which always gave me a sense of comfort knowing he was reliable and conscientious.
Just a few weeks before the wedding we asked if Kelsey knew of a DJ and he said he could provide that service as well. As the planner I was relieved to find someone but wondered about an officiant/DJ combination. It all turned out perfect. He was absolutely professional. I have been to receptions where the DJ ends up being the center of the attention and that just was not the case with Kelsey - he was tucked away with his professional gear - made wonderful announcements, took requests & and had a fantastic selection of music range that pleased our young 20's crowd all the way to the classics. Take my advice & use Kelsey for both services. Like I said, I wish I could give him 10 Stars for every category!!!!!
Oh one other thing that just went above & beyond .... His assistants were amazing , from helping me set up to taking video. We had hired a photographer but not a videographer. We were so pleased when the next morning we received an email with links to the ceremony, first dances, etc!!!! Honestly he & his crew were angels Heaven sent !!!!!

I contacted Dr. Graham one week before the wedding. I was in a panic because our pastor had to cancel last minute due to a death in his family and he was going to have to travel out of state.
Dr. Graham was miraculously available on my wedding day. He was so sweet on the phone, telling me not to worry, and that all would be ok and he would be very glad to step in.
We all met the next night to discuss how we wanted it and what we wanted said. He was amazing and so helpful, letting us know he was there to make our day exactly how WE wanted it..
We traded emails after that from what we discussed to make any changes we saw fit.
The day of our wedding, he was very punctual, early in fact and very personable and friendly with our guests. The ceremony could not have been better.
I would highly recommend Kelsey Graham to anyone who needs his services.
Thank you so much Kelsey for making or wedding day so special.

Kelsey served as our officiant at our wedding. We live far away from where we got married so it wasn't possible to meet him before but he took the time to "talk" to us about the ceremony over the phone and email. He is super responsive to email which greatly helped plan things. He was very flexible with the ceremony and did things just as we asked. He also had helpful suggestions about how things should go which helped us as well. He was a bit more expensive than other officiants we contacted but it was all worth it. I would definitely recommend his services.

I found Dr. Graham on one of these wedding sites when I was searching for a minister to marry myself and my husband. I was skeptical at first because I had never met him and didn't know anyone who had used him before. I contacted him and it wasn't 5 minutes before he got in touch with me. My mom and I went to meet him and he was so nice and seemed to really care about what kind of wedding myself and my fiancé wanted to have. We wanted a Christian ceremony, and he was very helpful when it came to what to say and putting our ceremony together. On our wedding day he showed up on time, well dressed, and was very professional. He even stayed for the reception and blessed the meal (something I had not even thought to ask him to do). It was so nice and if I had it to do all over again, I would still ask him to be our minister! I would recommend him to anyone getting married :)

Professionalism, sincerity, and caring are just a few of the many attributes that Kelsey provided to our wedding preparation and wedding day. Kelsey made planning our wedding ceremony effortless and the service we received was well beyond our expectations. After receiving the run around with numerous other potential officiates, Kelsey called in response to my inquiry on his website within minutes. The fast responses were never ending. Kelsey responded to every phone call and email within minutes, and this is no exaggeration. We could tell instantly that Kelsey wanted nothing more than for us than to have exactly what we wanted. We provided Kelsey with our website, and I provided an email with information about myself and my bride. Kelsey tailored our ceremony perfectly around only a few readings, a poem, and our vows. The additions he made were very nice and meaningful. We traded emails to arrive at what became our ceremony. When it came time for the rehearsal Kelsey really was our saving grace. Kelsey quickly noticed that we had no clue what to do and stepped in as a leader to move the rehearsal in the right direction. The wedding ceremony was flawless, had a great flow, and was executed perfectly by Kelsey. Our appreciation of Kelsey goes very far and we were very lucky to have him be a part of our wedding day. I would highly recommend having Kelsey officiate your wedding, as he makes what can be another added stress to the planning, very effortless. Kelsey, thank you very much for all you did for Kristen and I. We appreciate so much that you put our relationship first and cared so deeply about making our wedding day something that we will remember for the rest of our lives.

He is one the nicest people I think I have ever met. He was very professional but at the same time friendly, caring and helpful beyond just the ceremony itself. My daughter's wedding was perfect, but not boring which Kelsey had a good bit to do with that from all the help and advice he gave us. I would recommend every couple to use him as their officiant whether you have an actual wedding planner or if you are like us and doing the decor, planning, flowers, etc. on your on. Thank you so very much Kelsey.

Kelsey was brilliant - responsive, friendly, professional. We needed to find an officiant about a week before the wedding because the one we had booked was unresponsive. Kelsey did a great job, and we are so very thankful to him!

Kelsey was a perfect choice for our wedding. He was flexible and addressed everything we were looking for in an officiant. When things got a little hectic, he kept us both calm and helped put our big day into perspective. We couldn't have asked for a better professional to marry us and add that personal touch.

Kelsey was such a pleasure to work with. He has a wonderful personality and upbeat attitude. He is very flexible with the ceremonies that he performs because he wants it to represent exactly what the couple wants. He will send examples of ceremonies as well as creating new ones to suit what you are looking for. Kelsey arrived early to both the rehearsal and ceremony. I would DEFINITELY recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant! I am so happy that he was a part of our wedding!

It was challenging to find a same sex couple officiant. But when I found Kelsey he was more than accommodating and wonderful about everything.

Great officiant. We called him two weeks before our wedding && somehow he worked with us on the most popular day of 11/11/11 haha. He was great. Showed up when we needed him to && we had a small ceremony so it was great he was just there to do what we wanted.

Kelsey is an absolute gem to work with! He not only took performed our service as a professional he did this as what we consider a true friend which made it more special! We had a Halloween themed wedding that he made both unique and personal to us. He takes the time to get to know both bride and groom and make sure that the ceremony is a reflection of both of them.

Reverend Graham was the most professional,articulate,personable man that my new bride and family have met in a long time!
The Reverend made our wedding a pure joy!
My wife searched high and low for a person that would listen to how we wanted our glorious day to happen. The Reverend Graham provided all of our thoughts to a perfect wedding service. My wife and I never met Reverend Graham before, only via phone and e-mail had we conversed. Reverend Graham did offer for all of us to meet prior to setting the actual service. Talking with him on the phone, I told my fiancé at the time, he is the man of choice. I met Reverend Graham 1 hour before he performed our service, and it was a total pleasure to sit and talk with him. After our wedding ceremony, again, Reverend Graham and I talked, he mingled with our family and guests!
If as future husband and wife are looking for a little more something in your wedding, call and speak to him, it won't hurt!
He has a great voice and is a great listener!
We are glad we found him!

5.0
Mr. Graham was an incredible wedding officiant! We contacted him on extremely short notice and he was more than willing to help us out. He arrived early and made sure that the extremely unorthodox ceremony was going to be exactly what we wanted and it was. We do not have words to express our gratitude to Mr. Graham, he was the perfect officiant for our wedding. Thank you so much!

Dr. Kelsey Graham and Catherine Were fantastic to work with. They were easy to get ahold of if I needed something or had a question. His style and attitude helped me feel confident that everything was going to go well. They were always on time and ready to go. I live out of state so had to do all of the planning from a distance and I appreciated having an officiant and photographer I could rely on. I would recommend them every time.

Jon and Mary Wedding

These are lovely people who went above and beyond to make our day smooth and special. I felt to warm and happy with the ceremony they put together for us, the hand fasting was everything I wanted, and they were so kind and professional throughout. I would recommend them to anyone.

Grace Wedding!

Dr. Kelsey and his helper Ms. Katherine were wonderful! They were so helpful and so informative. They really went above and beyond with helping us with more than just officiating. They both have an amazing sense of humor. Neither of them were judgmental and were so kind. I would recommend them to anyone!!

Very personalized service,. Fun officiant!

Upon meeting his clients, Dr. Graham seems to intuitively understand their needs with regards to the type of ceremony they are hoping to have. He is a gifted, beautiful writer, and an all around fun and transparent individual. He makes himself completely available to his clients during the planning process and is very accommodating.
I feel as if my husband and I have made a new friend!

Best officiant ever

Dr. Kelsey Graham married my husband and me and it was the best experience we could have asked for. He is so kind and knows how to make a joke as well. He also made the legal marriage certificate a breeze by bringing our filled-out paperwork to the wedding and notarizing it for us. Our guests all LOVED him and thought we had known him for years because he was so personable. 1000000/10 would recommend using him over any other officiant.

Kelsey Graham is a must have at your wedding

I was married Saturday and Dr. Graham was my officiant. Besides the girl I decided to marry he was the best decision I made that day. I had only spoken to Dr. Graham two times before the ceremony, once as an introductory meeting to decide how we would like our wedding to go, and again when he sent the script over for our approval. People said that we must have known him for years, that's how personable he made our wedding. He was so funny and so professional and also has an incredible ability to make important decisions on the fly. He said that he provided us with microphones when we decided to say our vows. My wife and I are loud people so I told him we really wouldn't need them, he looked at me and smiled and said "Well than we won't use them that is not a problem." He is so understanding of the couples needs and wants and is willing to make any adjustments that he can in order to help us make our day as special as possible. It is hard to find someone who can do that wedding that doesn't have a one script fits all approach, but we found one. If you are reading this review looking for someone to officiate the wedding, stop looking and just give him a call. After one conversation about what you want with your wedding with him you will be so confident that he can do it and you will not regret it.

Fantastic!!

Catherine Marie (and Kelsey) stepped in at the last minute to take over for the original coordinator my new daughter-in-law’s parents had hired after she was stranded a few days prior to the wedding due to an ice storm, but the short-notice transition was seamless. Catherine Marie’s personality, professionalism, preparedness, responsiveness and attention ton to EVERY detail ensured my son’s wedding was PERFECT despite all the weather-related glitches! Catherine Marie & Kelsey were simply AMAZING and I highly recommend them!!

Excellent!!

The ceremony was unforgettable and personalized to us. They worked with us to make our experience unique and as stress free as possible. From calming nerves to fluffing my dress before my entrance, you could not ask for a better team to be part of your wedding day! They gave us ideas and unique options (all of which we decided to do) and were an integral part of what made our special day go off without a hitch! Highly recommend them to anyone looking for an officiant team!

Absolutely Amazing

I found Dr. Kelsey Graham 2 weeks before my wedding and he swooped in and took control in all the best ways!! He and his wife came to the rehearsal amd completely set our minds at ease that we had professionals helping us. Wonderful experience. Would recommend!!

He even filmed the ceremony and made a beautiful video of the whole evening for us. I had no idea he was going to do that!!

Thank you Catherine Marie and Dr. Kelsey for making our wedding run so smoothly and everything we could have hoped

It's rare that you meet the people that will help you plan your wedding. Help you decorate your wedding
Come to your house and help put things together
They became family ! What better way to start a marriage than with people that truly believe in you and support your wedding

Dr. Graham & Catherine were beyond wonderful, willing to hike down under a waterfall, to a personalized wedding, BEAUTIFUL photos and video of our special day & boy...can they roll with the punches. We eloped & our plans changed so many times and every time they did they just rolled with it, reminded me they would make it work & it helped my stress level tremendously. Our day came together beautifully & we will remember this day & cherish each other & our marriage (and video/pictures) forever.
Thank you Dr. Graham & Catherine for making our day perfect!
