The Best in Henrico - An Eventective User from Henrico, Virginia

Rev. Byron is indeed the best in Henrico! He schedules and performs all the ceremonies at the Henrico Govt. Center venues under Lake Hening Weddings and has done so since 2010 since weddings are not allowed in the courthouse. There are other officiants who claim to be Lake Hening Weddings who have less than five years experience! Don't make the mistake of using one of them. We know people who did and suffered the consequences! Call Rev. Byron today! Tabitha and Jon

Outstanding Service - An Eventective User from Arlington, Virginia

At first, I thought the civil ceremony process would be easy. We were told by the lady who issued our marriage license at the Arlington Courthouse that all we had to do is call one of the three persons on their civil ceremony officiants list and they would take care of us right away. We decided to call all three of these people and had to leave voice mails. A whole week went by and we received no return calls. I then called the clerk's office and was informed that the celebrants are also lawyers, and they are in court most of the time, and only do civil ceremonies when they have time! This was not acceptable, so we called Arlington Civil Ceremonies. One of their ministers returned our call within one hour. They perform beautiful ceremonies in outdoor locations, as well as at private homes. They even offer a choice of ceremonies and music, and they only charged us the standard civil ceremony fee of $50. So don't bother with the busy lawyers in Arlington County! Call the ministers office today for outstanding service!!! Jack and Carrie Wilson
