Highly recommend Simple Wedding Day! Rev. Benjy Simmons is warm and thoughtful. Always made himself available for questions and is very accommodating to your needs. My beach ceremony was beautiful and everything I wanted!
My husband and I found Benjy through internet search. We live in Virginia and visit SC often during the summer and knew we wanted to get married there. Benjy was heaven sent to us. He made everything SO easy from the first conversation we had until we said I Do. He assisted with planning, coordinating and even sending out signed wedding licenses at the end so we didn’t have to worry about it. When our venue got changed last minute (literally the day before our wedding due to weather) Benjy spoke with the DJ, coordinated with our other planner and didn’t even blink with the transition to new space. He even was willing to help us find a new venue to use. We had multiple family members come up to us after the wedding saying how wonderful he was, how eloquently he spoke and how perfect his choice of words was. We felt so comfortable with him during a time that is extremely nerve wracking standing in front of a bunch of people staring at you. One day, my husband and I will renew our vows and we will go right back to Benjy. Even though we didn’t get to utilize his full services provided including getting sand on the beach prepped and having him set up/take down chairs on the beach strictly due to weather, I have no doubt that everything still would have gone smooth. We put full trust in Benjy! Above all else, he is a really genuine and great person, which assisted with the process being so smooth. We recommend Benjy 1,000x over!!
Our day was so special. We are so pleased to have chosen Simple Wedding Day. Very professional and organized. It was everything and more. A great experience. We highly recommend.
Rev. Benjy Simmons was a very important part of making our dream wedding day come true! (Benjy came HIGHLY recommended from our venue and the various vendors absolutely love him.) From the very first day we talked via phone, it was clear that he was there to listen and make our ceremony personal. Yet, he also has a lot of experience and recommendations when were were unsure (e.g. how to obtain the marriage license in SC, selecting vows, etc...). What strikes me about reading other reviews is Rev. Simmons' adaptability. From very small intimate beach ceremonies to our large 200+ ceremony, it's clear he makes every couple feel special on their day. Added bonus: SUPER ORGANIZED even when we were not! :) Thank you, Rev. Simmons for making our day so memorable. Rick & Susan
We called him about a week before we were coming for vacation and wanted to do our wedding! He was very helpful in understanding the entire process and what all we needed! The day of the wedding he made sure that the timing was perfect for photos and everything! Our wedding was cancelled 2 times because of Covid and even though it was not what we had originally planned, he made the day just as special and amazing for us! Thank you so much!
It was simply magical.....no flaws. Everything flowed smoothly and Rev. Benji made it the very BEST ceremony. We felt extremely spiritual and as though we had been lifted higher in our love for one another. AMAZING!
Rev. Simmons was wonderful in making our 50th Anniversary so special. He is such a pleasure to work with and replied quickly to all our questions. He was very patient in letting us take time to set up a few decorations we had brought with us. We appreciate you working with us over the months of planning. We highly recommend Rev. Simmons for all your wedding needs. Thank you!
Rev. Sommons was exceptional. He was very accomodating and paid great attention to detail. The weather was unpredictable and he closely monitored it leading up to the wedding and made sure that we had the beach wedding we dreamed of.
Reverend Benjy Simmons was a most amazing officiant. We received so many compliments after our ceremony about how sincere he was and how welcome everyone felt. For us, he made us very comfortable throughout the whole process and made the rehearsal and ceremony very stress free. You could tell that Benjy truly loves what he does; the message throughout the ceremony was very heartfelt. We highly recommend Benjy to any couples looking to get married in the Myrtle Beach area.
Pastor Benjy Simmons of Simple Wedding Day in Myrtle Beach was amazing to work with! We contacted him just a couple of months in advance of our wedding and he helped us plan our July 4th Sunrise ceremony at Surfside Beach. He was very helpful in telling us where the best places would be to get our marriage license ahead of time since we live out of state. He was also very patient when our service of only the 2 of us turned into us plus 15 guests! We talked a few times before the date and he made sure we knew what to expect, where to meet and even helped us with our communications with the photographer. Our ceremony was absolutely perfect and we couldn't have handpicked a better pastor than Benjy! He is very personable and you feel like you have known him for years. All of our guests had nothing but great things to say about him and his professionalism. We highly recommend Simple Wedding Day, LLC and Benjy Simmons to anyone who wants to get married or renew their vows in the Myrtle Beach, SC area!
Working with Benjy Simmons made planning for our wedding day a breeze. It was easy and carefree and just as we hoped. I appreciate the fact Pastor Simmons answered or returned calls when I tried to get in touch with him and was always professional. If a nice, beautiful and 'simple' wedding day is what you're looking for I recommend giving Benjy Simmons of Simple Wedding Day a call.
Highly recommended! Was extremely organized and efficient, not to mention helpful in every way!!
Rev. Benjy Simmons is absolutely outstanding!! He helped us to realize our wedding dream, was helpful with a host of ceremony options, very cooperative and kind... and well within reason for cost. My new wife and I would recommend him and Simple Wedding Day without hesitation!
I would highly recommend Rev. Benjy. From the very beginning he communicated well and helped me with the entire process (including the marriage license rules in SC). I couldn't have asked for a better person to marry us. He offers so much more than the ideal officiant. He offers photography and decoration packages among other things. He was very professional and flexible with our start time as it was raining the day of the ceremony. I would recommend him a thousand times over!
Rev. Benjy was the absolute best. Our Wedding day went so smoothly and started prompt on time thanks to him. His communication with us was outstanding and we are forever grateful of that. I wouldn't hesitate to do this all over again and use Rev. Benjy. The whole day was just perfect. Thank you so much!!! ??
We wanted to renew our wedding vows on the beach. I highly recommend using Benjy Simmons! He was extremely professional and worked with us to make sure we had the event we wanted - it was perfect!
Rev Benjy wed us on the beach! He did an amazing job! He was so professional and knowledgable! He instructed us on what we needed to do which made it so easy. The ceremony was beautiful, he had a heart made on the sand for us to stand in. I would recommend him to anyone looking to get married in that area!
Personal and friendly. Super job, best marriage ever!
Planning a wedding is overwhelming but planning one out of state really made us nervous! We honestly did not know where to start. We knew that we wanted a small ceremony on the beach but nothing big or expensive. We started searching for wedding planners on the internet and received many quotes that were way out of our price range and those quotes did not include photography, seating, alter, nothing but the reverend. We clicked on Simple Wedding Day page and read reviews that sounded perfect! When we called Benji he took the time to listen to what we had in mind (as opposed to other wedding planners just telling us what they would do). He had vows, alter, decorations, chairs, sand ceremony, photographers we could choose from, everything! Knowing that we only would have to worry about one person to check in on everything for our wedding was amazing. Not to mention he did everything himself. He called us a few times before the wedding to double check everything. We had changes everytime he called and not once was he annoyed. He arrived about an hour before the ceremony raked the beach so it was level for the seating, set up the chairs, alter, and sand ceremony table. He met everyone that we had at our wedding and was incredibly nice. Benji and our photographer Randall worked so well together and were hilarious! Benji even took some photographs himself which were beautiful. The price was less than half of what other people were going to charge us, but most importantly Benji handled everything for our wedding giving us piece of mind. I cannot express how wonderful our wedding was. We highly recommend Simple Wedding Day.
Rev. Simmons provided our wedding with a romantic elegance that we were searching for! He was very attentive and professional, and the photography was a dream! So honored we chose him to be a part of our special day!
Simple Wedding Day is the best thing going if you are looking for the most stress free and memorable wedding!!!! Rev Benji Simmons not only performed a very touching wedding ceremony but he gave a lot of guidance in preparing for the wedding including the venue, the time and decorations. I felt like I got an all inclusive package with Simple Wedding Day; a minister, a wedding planner, a photographer and a decorator.. Their name truly says it all SIMPLE!!!!!!!!!
Rev Benjy is very flexible and easy to work with. He made our day a blast. He knew it was important to include my daughter in the ceremony and did it beautifully. His recommendations for the area were also very positive experiences. He teamed up with Photographer Randall Hill and they worked well together making our day so much fun and effortless. His communication from the beginning is comforting and we knew we made the right decision. Thank you Rev Simmons for making our day personal and so special!
Rev Simmons was wonderful and making sure our Wedding day went off perfectly as well as great pictures from his wife. We are so grateful that we chose Rev Simmons to perform our ceremony.
We were so blessed to find Rev Benji!! I searched the internet for an officiant in Myrtle Beach SC. and his website came up. After reading his reviews from other couples i was instantly pleased! I thought his picture looked decent, and after meeting Rev. Benji, My husband and I knew that God had brought us to him!! He was wonderful!! He was very genuine and respectful. He took his time in making sure that our day and moment was so so special. His words were so sweet and fit our situation perfect!! The photography was wonderful!! everybody has loved our pictures. You will not be disappointed. I would recommend Rev. Benji to anyone!! Thank you Benji so so much!!
Beautiful intimate beach ceremony, always responded quickly via email or phone. He picked a beautiful location and was set up and ready to go when we arrived for our sunset wedding. Pictures were awesome, photographer was great had very great poses. Way beyond our expectations.
Rev. Benjy provided outstanding, efficient service while keeping our ceremony exactly the way we had hoped. It was a relaxing experience, a truly special ceremony, and a very memorable day -- and all arranged over a holiday season and under a week! We highly recommend Simple Wedding Day for excellent, personalized, and affordable service .
My husband and I decided to renew our vows after 10yrs and chose Myrtle Beach as our destination. Our ceremony was everything we wanted. Rev Simmons did an amazing job! He made us feel comfortable right away. It was everything we had hoped for! Thank you!!
Rev Benny was so nice and helpful, he explained everything and even saved us money by obtaining our license in Georgetown.. He was prompt and professional and had everthing ready for the ceremony. In short if you are planning a beach wedding, why go to anyone else ? Again thank you !
Rev. Benjy Simmons of Simple Wedding Day made our day so special and easy. He truly provided such a beautiful ceremony and took care of all the little things. The simple photography turned out to be just what we wanted. The pictures that Renee took as part of our wedding package were simply beautiful. We would recommend Simple Wedding Day to any family or friend. So easy to work with and above and beyond with customer service. Rev. Benjy is very organized. Could not have asked for anyone better! We are from out of state and still felt extremely comfortable working with Rev. Benjy. Everything was perfect.
We cannot thank Rev Benjy Simmons enough for such an amazing wedding ceremony. We were so pleased and our family & friends loved the readings and personal touches throughout the ceremony. Benjy was a joy to work with and in constant communication. Quick responses to my emails and phone calls. We were able to customize our ceremony scripting and Benjy welcomed all the little details. I would highly recommend Benjy!
This company and Rev Benjy Simmons is awesome. Rev Benjy goes out of his way to get your special day all set up and with everything you want. It can be something very simple like my husband and me, or something very over the top. If your wedding is simple, you are still treated like you are something. Mine was put together last minute, however I do not recommend this unless it is necessary. On the other hand Rev. Benjy will work hard to achieve what you want. Thank you Rev. Benjy from the bottom of my heart.
Absolutely Wonderful! We are so thankful we found Pastor Simmons and that he was able to perform our vow renewal! He made it so easy to coordinate this event, and both he and his Beautiful Bride did an Excellent job taking pictures for us- they have quite an eye for light and positioning! A beautiful memory of our Myrtle Beach Vow Renewal! Thank you and God Bless!
Rev. Simmons was so helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process. I called and emailed him multiple times, and he always responded promptly. He is extremely nice, along with his wife Renee. The weather was not cooperating with us on the day of our wedding, but he came prepared to have a wedding either outside on the beach or inside the resort in the back up room. He arrived early and had everything set up in plenty of time before the wedding started, even though we had to start an hour early due to the weather. We also had them do our ceremony pictures and they turned out amazing! I would definitely recommend him to anyone that is getting married!
We were married on Oct. 23, 2013 in a very simple ceremony on Surfside Beach. Rev. Simmons kept in contact during the planning and accomodated our needs perfectly. A pleasure to work with-thanks for a wonderful wedding!
Rev. Simmons was WONDERFUL to work with from start to finish! Planning a destination wedding can be a challenge if you don't know the area.....Rev. Simmons eased our fears, helped coordinate the details, and our wedding morning was easy, fun and romantic! Thank you!!!
Our wedding day was perfect thanks to Simple Wedding Day and Rev Benjy. He is so wonderful to work with! Hes on top of everything. Any questions, no matter what time of day or night..he always find the time to get back to you right away! He is extremely knowledgeable and wants your day to be just as perfect as you do! I would highly recommended working with Simple Wedding Day! We would not have changed one time about our day!
Rev. Simmons what can I say I am speechless.. The wedding was spectacular. Before I could even ask for any specifics you already knew what I wanted. Our wedding was so much more then we thought it would be.. Look no further for someone to marry you.. Rev. Simmons is the best!!!
My new husband and I got married on 8/3/13 during a sunset ceremony by Rev. Benjy Simmons. I can not say enough great things about him and his wife!! They were amazing! By emailing and calling me to even filling our marriage licence for us, it was everything we needed an more! He even called me the day of to see if it was raining in North Myrtle since it had been in South Myrtle and when I told me no, he stated "Good just as long as it does not rain on your day that is all that matters!" That is what every bride really needs to hear! The ceremony went off seamlessly and the photographs were amazing. Still going through all the wonderful pictures (over 200 in all) I would highly recommend Rev. Benjy Simmons! You can not go wrong with him and his wonderful wife!
Benjy and his wife did a fantastic job with our triple vow renewal. My friends and I surprised our husbands and it went off without a hitch. Great ceremony and awesome pictures. Great fun and such wonderful memories we will have!
If you are looking for a simple beach wedding with an officiant and photographer who will make planning your wedding stress free, Rev. Simmons and his wife are your team! Rev. Simmons was professional, quick to respond to our calls and questions, and willing to create the wedding we desired. His wife took many photographs, which enabled us to create our own wedding album. Thanks to both of you for a job well done!
A HUGE Thank You to Rev. Benjy Simmons!!! Carl and I are from Michigan and decided late last year to host a destination wedding in Myrtle Beach at the Ocean Club at Grande Dunes with a few of our family members and friends. Located outstate and planning a wedding from MI was difficult, but Rev Simmons was a huge help to us! He was very flexible with our travel arrangements and was such an understanding person to work with. He did an amazing job performing at our wedding and all of our guests had the kindest and most wonderful words to say about him and his services!! I would recommend him to anyone. THANK YOU so much for such an outstanding job!!! Jennifer and Carl
On day number 3 of our 7 day vacation in Myrtle beach, my faboulous hubby took my breath away with a SUPRISE of renewing our vows for our 10 year anniversary!!! He told me we were going to a fancy restaurant with our 2 daughters, aged 6 & 8 on a beach. I was suprised when I got out of our car as there were no restaurants in sight but put 2 and 2 together when I saw the photographer and the gorgeous decor on the beach in the distance. Having Rev. Benji Simmons perform our ceremony will always stay in my heart as his words were truly spoken from his heart. I am so in love with my hubby for putting this together and for taking the time to find the perfect person to share this special time with us. Thank you Rev. Benji all the way from Ontario, Canada!!!
Benjy and his services are AWESOME! Our ceremony was beautiful, intimate, and affordable! He was very helpful in the entire process and offered suggestions. We chose to do the sand ceremony which was great with simple photography provided by his wife. The photos are great! I highly recommend Rev. Benjy Simmons to anyone planning a wedding in the Myrtle Beach area!!
The Wedding was perfect. Tiki torches and Arc on the Beach. The Ceremony was great and the Photography was very professional. Marriage license and application were quick and easy to obtain.
As my wife and were planning our Myrtle Beach wedding from Pittsburgh, all of the major pieces (location, photographer, DJ) were falling in place except for one...the officiant. It was very important to us that we were comfortable with the person that was going to marry us. We spoke to a couple of people, but just weren't getting that feeling. Lucky for us, our photographer suggested we speak to Benjy. On one of our planning trips down to MB, we were able to meet with him and were made to feel at ease from the start. As we got closer to the ceremony date, he was easy to contact through email to answer any questions we had. The weather on our wedding day was questionable for our beach ceremony and I think he followed the hourly forecast closer than my wife. With impending rain, we chose to move our ceremony up two hours to beat it that afternoon. Benjy was so accommodating as it was no problem for him to arrive early as well. In the end, he delivered the ceremony just how we had hoped. As a sidenote, we went through Georgetown County to get our marriage license per his recommendation to save $60 over Horry County. When we picked it up, the woman there asked who was doing our ceremony. We told her Benjy, and she just handed over the papers. We asked why she asked that, and she told us that with Benjy, she knows everything will be filed with no problems after the ceremony. It was nice knowing we wouldn't have to worry about that at all.
Rev. Simmons was wonderful to work with! He helped me plan a surprise vow renewal ceremony for my husband, and we included my daughter in the ceremony and sand ceremony. Rev. Simmons not only helped with the surprise, but stayed in touch during the planning as well as the day of the ceremony, as there was a concern of bad weather. The ceremony was beautiful and the pictures were amazing!
In an instant Rev Benji put us at ease as we went to meet him for the 1st time as we live out of state. It felt like we knew him forever. That never changed for us. From the 2nd time I had spoken to him over the phone, to the last email he sent a few days prior to the wedding. ALways reassuring me.. all will be well! He talked with us to get more information on how we meet and just to get to know us. He made the ceremony so special and personal which is what we both wanted. He always offered ideas and suggestions as well. Asked if I had everything from flowers ,cake etc...He made it all stress free! We rented chairs from his as well... As the ceremony was on the beach. We can not express how thankful we are.... Thank you Rev.Benji.
Robert and I decided we wanted a beach wedding ceremony and would be traveling 4 hours, along with our family and close friends for our special day. Rev. Simmons was recommended to us and from day 1 he was nothing but helpful and friendly. He gave us lots of options and was an absolute delight to work with. I would highly recommend Rev. Simmons to anyone who wanted the perfect minister for their special day, someone who will work hard to make sure things are exactly the way you want them!
We renewed our vows after 15 years of marriage on 4/14/13. The ceremony was on a beautiful Sunday evening at Myrtle Beach State Park. Rev. Simmons quickly made us feel like we've all known each other for years and connected with our family well. The entire event was special and the pictures turned out great. We highly recommend Rev. Simmons for your ceremony...
I located Rev Benjy Simmons on line and after talking with him on the phone contracted for him to perform a vow renewal ceremony at Myrtle Beach State Park in conjunction with a family photo shoot. The vow renewal ceremony could not have been nicer. Rev Simmons has a strong clear voice and his words were thoughtful and meaningful.He was courteous and worked well with the photographer. I am very happy as Rev Simmons helped me to bring tears of joy to my bride of 50 years. It was the Perfect Ceremony
Rev. Simmons performed our simple ceremony on North Myrtle Beach and it was a resounding success. His kind, gentle manner made everyone feel comfortable during the ceremony and the picture session afterwards. The photographs turned out GREAT!!! and will be a wonderful momento for a long time to come. We highly reccomend Rev. Simmons and his lovely wife to anyone looking for a truly loving and gracious experience with a wedding on the beach
My wife and I renewed our vows (15 years!) at Myrtle Beach State Park with Rev. Simmons as the officiant with his wife taking pictures (which were spectacular!) . All I can say is that is was absolutely perfect in every way! Rev. Simmons' service is exactly what we wanted. He included our children and my sister/brother-in-law wonderfully! I would HIGHLY recommend his services. Everything was great!
My wife and I were married on June 26, 2012, on the beautiful beaches of Myrtle Beach State Park. Rev. Simmons was helful in everyway possible to make this day special for us. We wanted a quiet wedding, and he suggested the perfect place away from to many onlookers. We are extremely happy with how everything went that day, and would highly recommend Rev. Simmons to anyone looking for their own "Perfect Day." Thanks for everything Rev. Simmons.
Want to Thank Rev. Simmons and his wife for a very wonderful and special 10 Year Vow Renewal at Myrtle Beach State Park. June 29th, 2012. It was a surprise for my wife as she thought I would not ever renew our vows. She suspected she was going to the State Park for a photo shoot and Rev. Simmons and his wife helped with the surprise and made it perfect. It was definitely a day my family will cherish. The pictures were fantastic, still can not believe they are not professional. And our daughters loved taking part in the sand ceremony. Hope to see Rev. Simmons and his wife again in 5 or 10 years for another renewal.
We could not ask for a more perfect officiant to provide the most perfect wedding experience we could ask for! He arrived on time, he was courteous to us, our families and our guests. Minister Simmonds' words were meaningful, loving and penetrating. The service was tastefully done and not overbearing with a long, drawn out speech!!! Before we knew it we were being introduced as man and wife on June 18th, 2012, at 6 pm, North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina! With much joy & appreciation, Mel & Sophia Carter
My husband Mike and I were married last year, 9-10-11. We hired Rev. Benji Simmons to perform our beachside wedding ceremony. It turned out so beautiful. Lucky for us, he had one time slot available for that day so we knew it was meant to be!!! Benji helped us all along the way. He called to make sure of details and just checked in on us. He even handled getting our jars engraved for our sand ceremony. He was so nice and very helpful throughout the whole process. Im so glad we decided to have him performing our wedding.
We were just married on May 20, 2012. Thanks to all of the amazing reviews I found on Rev. Benji, we contacted him to marry us on Litchfield Beach. From the moment he arrived on our big day, he made us feel like we had known each other for years, even though we hadn't been able to meet before the wedding since flying in the day before our wedding from New York. He was in constant contact with me, and helped to ask all of the important questions prior to our date. Everyone at our ceremony said how wonderful Rev. Benji was at personalizing our ceremony. We got a true feeling that he really wanted to be there, and was just as happy as we were!
We were recently married on May 12, 2012 at Surfside Beach, SC, and Rev. Simmons really helped make our wedding day exactly as we wanted. Planning a wedding from two states away proved to be difficult at times, but he was always a huge help. He not only walked us through every step, but he was always ready with great suggestions and ways to help us save time and money. He truly personalized the ceremony for us and was a very important part of our experience.
Rev Benjy made our wedding day easy, special, and joyous. everything we wished for. Thanks, Mr. & Mrs. Ferry
Rev. Benjy Simmons made our wedding day a day to remember. We planned the wedding ourselves, and from the beginning, Benjy was there to help every step of the way. He got us in contact with amazing vendors that he works with who were wonderful. He walked us through every step of the process and made it super easy for us! Benjy is a very special person who makes you feel at ease during a very stressful period. His kindness and beautiful words at our ceremony made the day so special. I highly recommend anyone who needs an officiant in Myrtle Beach to choose Benjy!
Beyond our expectations... truly. Rev. Simmons made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. When looking at the pictures, you would never, EVER, know that there were a ton of people on the beach. Everything was so well planned and they are professionals with a warm touch. THANK YOU!
Rev. Simmons was so nice and very helpful. He didn't hesitate to answer any questions that we had and was very prompt at returning phone calls and emails. He made our ceremony very special with his personal touch. It was everything we were looking for and was just perfect!
We got married on April 14, 2012 at Sand dunes resort, Rev. Simmons was great and he actually asked us how we wanted him dressed which was great cause my mom wanted him in his robes. Everything went on track and nothing went wrong. If you are looking for someone you won't do wrong with rev. simmons. oh yeah and it was a double wedding with my sister. he was great.
Rev. Benjy Simmons performed our simple yet beautiful ceremony on the beach at the Springmaid Beach Resort on April 13th, 2012. We couldn't have asked for anything better. He and his wife Renee were very kind and professional. The photos that they took turned out beautiful! Thank you so much for making our day special!!
Rev.Benjy Simmons married us on 3/24/12. The Springmaid Beach was a wonderful spot for a simple beach wedding. Rev.Benjy and his wife Renee helped and guided us in ways that gave us the perfect wedding. It was so inspiring to watch Rev. Benjy and Renee work together and practice what he says in the ceremony. I would recommend Rev. Benjy Simmons to anyone knowing in my heart that they would be satisfied with any service that he would officiate.
Rev. Benjy Simmons was a perfect fit for us! He not only made us feel very comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process; but proved he was a great choice through excellent communication with us at all times. Our wedding day went beautifully, as Rev. Benjy delivered our vowels, and some of his own personal words and wisdom. Thank you for everything! - The Adams
My husband (William) and I were planning to get married at a courthouse. We are both in the military so all of our friends and family are scattered around the world, its hard and very expensive to bring everyone together. About a month out, I decided to suprise William with a beach wedding instead (it has been on his bucket list since high school). I found Rev Simmons on google search with great reviews. He was wonderful, we planned the last minute wedding over e-mail and the phone. There was even a problem with the date that I had origionally chosen (Williams work schedule clashed with it), it was less than a week out, and Rev. Simmons managed to make it work for us! He also set us up with a great photographer (Rebecca Koenig), my husband hates getting his picture taken, but she made us feel so comfortable that he forgot about that. The experience was great, it went very smoothly, the ceremony was beautiful and the pictures turned out gorgeous! Everything was perfect! Thanks from the Clarks! :-)
Rev. Simmons was wonderful. I feel very blessed that we found he and his wife to perform the ceremony and take pictures. The pictures were great, they both really knew about lighting and poses, and what makes for great wedding pictures. His words during the ceremony were fantastic and felt as though he was speaking what our hearts were feeling. He made my day just as I dreamed it would be!
Steve & I were married on the beach in Isle of Palms. We had a very casual ceremony, it was perfect. It was meant to be for Rev Benji to marry us. He was very helpful throughout the planning process. Benji was prompt, professional and we were very pleased with the ceremony he performed. He even brought extra clothes to dress up or down to match our attire. Thank you so much Benji for making us feel so comfortable and helping us plan our special day.
With less than 3 weeks to plan our wedding, I was concerned that I would have to "take what I could get" in terms of wedding officiants. Due to the time of year, and getting married on a Tuesday, it seemed like most everyone I contacted was available. I chose Rev. Simmons because he immediately put me at ease, answered all of my questions, and gave me helpful advice from the very first phone call. The day of our wedding (10/25/2011) went very smoothly. Rev. Simmons showed up on time and gave us exactly the ceremony we wanted (short & sweet). The sand ceremony he offers is also a super addition to the ceremony & provides a lovely keepsake. I recommend Rev. Simmons to anyone getting married in the Myrtle Beach area who desires an officiant who will be a calming influence, will treat your wishes with respect, and will be professional at all times. Thank you so much!
Chris and I were married on 9-10-11 on the beach at Sea Mist Oceanfront Resort in Myrtle Beach, SC. Rev. Benji Simmons was very helpful, professional and was available at any time we needed him for anything. He truly made our day "perfect!" We spoke numerous times on the phone as well as through emails. He provided any suggestions and/or ideas we may have forgotten or left out. In the beginning when we contacted Rev. Benji Simmons, he was unavailable and at that time we did not know what we were going to do because everyone was booked for that entire day. Rev. Simmons emailed us back and made it possible for us to get married on that date. He went above and beyond his call of duty to help us make our day special! His wife, Renee took our pictures and they were amazing! She did a fantastic job!!! We are so pleased with everything Rev. Simmons and his wife, Renee, has done for us! Thank you both for working so hard and patiently with us. It was a day that will always be remembered..and because of you...it is even more special to us! Thanks again!
Scott and I got married August 3, 2011 on the beach at Myrtle Beach State Park. Rev Benjy Simmons was very professional and courteous. He seems to really love what he does. He's very patient and calm and eased us through the ceremony like a pro. He was always very apt to answer any questions or concerns I had leading up the wedding. We spoke numerous times on the phone and via email (we are from PA). As our first wedding, we had lots of questions and were hazy on the proceedings. He remained calm and gave us suggestions. We are very happy that we chose Rev Benjy to share our special day, as he made it special for us. Thanks for working so hard to give us a perfect wedding!!! I would also like to add that Mrs. Benjy was our photographer. She takes beautiful pictures, and lots of them too. Thanks again to both of you for everything!!!
We were so lucky to have found Rev. Simmons online to perform our daughter's wedding in Garden City. He was very willing to accomodate all our wishes & everything was done exactly as we had asked. He always kept in contact with us all the way up to the wedding to see if he could do anything else for us. Would highly recommend him for any wedding!
I want to thank Rev. Benjy Simmons for making our wedding day a memorable and precious day. We were married on Sunset Beach NC. We wanted a very small and intimate ceremony and it was exactly what we hoped it would be. The weather was fantastic and it fulfilled Mary's dreams of a beach wedding. Thank you so much and the pics were perfect. Very well done and we were very pleased with Benjy's personable character and ceremony. What a blessing! Gary & Mary Hill
My wife and I were married at McLean Park in North Myrtle Beach on August 6, 2011. We wanted a small ceremony during our beach vacation with just a few family members present. I came across Rev. Simmon's website after scouring the internet for days looking for an actual practicing reverend instead of just a wedding officiate. Rev. Simmons responded quickly unlike other officiates I had attempted to contact. He called and checked in on us from a few weeks out right up to the day before our ceremony to make sure that we had made it into Myrtle safely. The wonderful ceremony Benjy performed was exactly what we had been looking for and at a price we could afford. It truly seemed that he was pleased to be performing a ceremony for two people that love one another. If you are looking for a Reverend that will work with you, is genuinely personable and commited to making your wedding day truly special then Benjy is the man for the job! Thank you Benjy for making our wedding day wonderful despite the heat and may God bless you! Daniel and Amy Ruff
My husband and I were married on the beach at Dunes Village Resort on July 21, 2011 and it was a beautiful and unforgettable ceremony. Rev. Benny Simmons helped us in planning our ceremony until the very end. He kept in touch with us by phone and email up until the very end of our ceremony. The sand ceremony was gorgeous and he matched our colors exactly as we had expected. He was prompt and gave many wonderful suggestions. His wife took 140 wonderful photographs during our ceremony. She was absolutely amazing. We couldn't have asked for any better photographs! Thank you all so much for making our wedding ceremony a beautiful one :)
Rev. Simmons did an excellent job with our wedding. It was very simple but very special for us. We are very honored to of have had Rev. Simmons and his wife share our special day with us. Both of them did an awesome job! His wife did an excellent job with our pictures. She captured the most special moments. I would recommend them for anyone's wedding. They both have the love of God and love for other's happiness. Thank you both for such a wonderful time. God bless you both.
Amazing! My husband and I were very pleased from the start. He assisted us with all our questions and concerns. Very sincere and genuine. Ceremony was beautiful. Recommend to anyone!
Rev. Benjy Simmons married my fiance and I on 3/19/2011. From the first conversation that I had with him I knew he was the one that I wanted to conduct our wedding. We were married at St. Johns Inn in Myrtle Beach. He was very helpful in helping us plan the perfect wedding from the additions we made to the words and helping us add my son into ceremony. Everyone that attended the wedding was very happy with the ceremony and how he incorporated everything we wanted. We would highly recommend his services to anyone and everyone that is looking to get married in Myrtle Beach. He has several ceremonies to choose from and he will also help you ensure that your day goes as planned. I did not have a wedding cordinator, but with Rev. Benjy's help we did not need one. We will charish our wedding and our new beginning as a family for every. Justin & Christina Taylor, Myrtle Beach, SC.
Rev Benjy Simmons made our wedding ceremony absolutely beautiful! I had chosen him to preform our ceremony a couple months in advance. After speaking with him, I knew God had led me to the right person! Rev Benjy called me several times to make sure I had no questions or concerns. He was VERY helpful, and his words were beautiful at our ceremony. His wife Renee took beautiful pics of our ceremony from a balcony, getting an angle that our other photographers couldnt capture! They are a wonderful addition to our wedding pics! I feel VERY blessed to have met Rev Benjy.. he made our wedding day very special. Thank you so much!! Sam and Elizabeth Martinez
Pastor Benjy was amazing! He contacted me same day I submitted my request and helped every minute of the way planning a beautiful beach ceremony. Went beyond what we expected and every effort to make us comfortable and at ease. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking to get married in the Myrtle Beach area.
Rev. Benjy Simmons was amazing. He was very easy to talk with about the upcoming wedding, working around anything we wished to have during the ceremony, and stayed in contact throughout the entire process making sure we were doing good with all the plans, he also stayed in touch after. He is a genuinely sweet man. Also, his daughter takes pictures for a low price, and she is wonderful! Both of them are fabulous people and we could not imagine doing the whole thing over with anyone else!
