About Weddings By Pastor Charlie

As an ordained minister and wedding officiant with over 40 years of experience, I serve couples and individuals who are seeking God’s guidance in their relationships and life journey. I work with engaged and premarital couples, as well as those needing ongoing spiritual counseling, always with compassion, respect, and a strong faith foundation. It is my deepest joy to see God bring healing and blessing to relationships—whether you’re just starting out or have been together for many years. As a solo practitioner, I personally handle every ceremony, counseling session, and speaking engagement, so you receive my full attention, care, and prayerful support. If this sounds like the kind of support you’re looking for, please contact me so we can talk about your needs and how I can walk alongside you. Dr. Charles Speelman

Charlie was fantastic, officiating us with grace, meaning, and genuineness. He was truly lovely and sweet, and our family felt he spoke beautifully. A wonderful person that helped our ceremony shine, and will go down in memory as the one who was meant to be.

He was very nice, he's gregarious, he provided strong religious affirmation for our service which was important to us, but he's flexible in that aspect. He showed up early, so he's punctual and polished, and helped guide us through our wedding ceremony, it was wonderful and I highly recommend him!

We are very happy with our pick he did a wonderful job and was very easy to work with. He was there when we needed him. We also utilized him for a rehearsal I am glad we did as it helped us to feel better prepared for the big day. He is very responsive and fulfilled his duties. Thank you Pastor Charlie.

We are so incredibly grateful to Pastor Charlie for officiating our wedding! He made our ceremony feel so meaningful, personal, and centered around our faith. Having Jesus at the heart of our marriage was extremely important to us, and he helped make that such a beautiful part of our wedding day. He was kind, genuine, and made us feel completely comfortable throughout the entire process. The ceremony was beautiful, heartfelt, and something we will remember for the rest of our lives. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better pastor to be there with us as we began this new chapter together. Thank you so much for being such an important part of one of the most special days of our lives. We are so thankful and would absolutely recommend you to any couple looking for someone to officiate their wedding! ❤️

We loved his sermon and how he quoted from the Bible. He is a nice loving man. My mother said she got tears in her eyes. She was moved. Thankyou Pastor Charles!!

So far, I've met Charlie for a counseling session 2 times, and will continue, and although Charlie does a lot of weddings, he also counsels. I am seeing him for grief counseling on the loss of my precious husband. I find Charlie sincere, authentic in his faith, good listener, empathetic and easy to talk with. He prayerfully considers his suggestions offered to me. I am hopeful to believe he prays for me and my family to become strengthened, encouraged, and comforted as well. Really appreciate him.

Our wedding has not yet come... However I have met him and he was prepared, accommodating, and made me feel like I know I have nothing to worry about on my wedding day!

We like Charlie a lot. He made the process easy even though we thought we had lost the marriage license paperwork. He kept us calm and collected.
