"Colonel Kevin officiated our wedding on September 26, 2026. He was absolutely amazing and super kind. I went into wedding planning blind and knew nothing about ceremonies. Our ceremony turned out perfectly and he helped us every step of the way! We specifically did hand fasting and it was beautiful! The crowd also loved it but now it's a keepsake we can have and hang up!"
