    I am the best "man" at my friends wedding and the officiant (the original officiant was to be the grooms mom but she had surgery and can no longer take that role) I am nervous as all hell but they're my best friends so im excited. Your videos have definitely helped me collect thoughts and organize thank you!

      Thanks for your comment! Being nervous is understandable - as long as you do the work like you're doing now, you can get organized putting it all together and then down-to-earth at the front when you're performing. You can't fail! You got this. Thanks for watching! 👊

    Not only will I be officiating the wedding, I am the father of the bride. I have experience speaking in public but I feel this will be much different. I consider it a great honor that my daughter and her fiance have asked me. Should be fun.
