think those lessons were the most valuable part of doing our wedding with Chuck. As to the ceremony itself, Chuck made it deeply personal to the two of us and some touching, unique elements to make it special. People still can't stop talking about it. I was worried at first about bringing a religious figure into our wedding who we did not know prior to the planning, but am so glad we got to know Chuck! He is sincere, wise in his counselling, but also fun and relaxed in his approach! Highly recommend.

rengthen your relationship. We were out of the country while planning most of our wedding yet he still made time to have skype meetings with us! The ceremony couldn't have been more perfect. It was a wonderful blend of happy, funny and personal. We had MANY of our guests tell us how much they enjoyed Chuck at our ceremony. He had people laughing and crying (happy tears) with his quotes and words of wisdom. We loved all of the personalized touches he included while still keeping the ceremony to a good length. He is such a kind person and we look forward to keeping in touch with him for years to come! We would recommend Chuck in a heartbeat to anyone!

He took the time to get to know us, as a couple and individuals, which really showed in our ceremony. Everything was perfect, from his use of our band, to his involvement of our friends and family, he made us feel truly loved on our wedding day. The meetings that we had before the wedding really helped us to learn each other as a couple and made our actually ceremony that much more intimate. Chuck deeply cares about the couples he marries and it shows. Everyone there said that it was one of the best ceremonies they had seen! We will definitely check in with him (even from LA) for some grounding post wedding, he is a perfect sounding board and voice of reason, we could not have been more pleased with how our day went!

n even better marriage' - and so far so good! We found him via google search and met with him on Skype all the way from WY before our wedding in PA. His counseling sessions were very helpful and really made us think about our relationship and become stronger together. After the wedding we still have people telling us that it was one of the best ceremonies they've been to, very personal and meaningful - and we agree! I'm sure we will stay in touch in the future. He is the best!

words Chuck spoke were personal and heartfelt. He involved all of our friends and family in the service and made everyone feel included and special. Thank you for making our day so special.

rom the beginning and accommodating. While we got married in Philadelphia, we lived out of state, so Chuck was willing to meet with us via Skype, which was greatly appreciated. We really enjoyed our sessions with him and learned a lot. He had a number of exercises he had us do, which were rather intriguing and enjoyable. Chuck has a great personality and took a genuine interest in our happiness and success as a couple, coaching and encouraging us during our sessions. It was an absolute pleasure working with him. We loved the charge he delivered during the ceremony and received so many compliments about him afterwards.

however my now husband had not met him prior to our pre-wedding meetings. After we met with Chuck for the first time, the first thing my husband said was, "he's the man", and "NOW I'm excited!". Chuck has this amazing way of making life very clear and making clear what our marriage is really about. We would get so excited to go meet with him, and felt even better and more excited after all of our pre-wedding meetings. He gave us many ideas of different and special things we could do during our wedding ceremony, and helped us define what we wanted our ceremony to be. Having Rev.Chuck officiate our wedding, alleviated most of the stress of it all because I knew, with him involved, that it would be the most special ceremony. He not only involved my husband and me, but he captivated all of our guests and got them involved, which had such a big impact on everyone. Everyone that I have talked to after our wedding, specifically said that we had the most special ceremony, the best ceremony that they have witnessed. Another amazing part of having Rev. Chuck is that we have gained a great friend, and supporter of our marriage. Not only did he bring my husband and me closer before our wedding, he will be there throughout our marriage supporting us and guiding us as needed. Whether you’re looking to have the entire focus on your wedding ceremony, or want something less formal but still special, Rev. Chuck Blair is your man. Meet with him once, and you won’t be able to imagine having anyone else officiate your wedding.

ny. Chuck remembered so many details and events that happened during our wedding planning process and included them. Our guest are still raving about how much they loved being so involved, the ring blessings, and they are still calling us to talk about the ceremony. I could never thank Chuck enough for making the most important day in our lives just that much more special with his ceremony. Its a time our family, friends, and Tim and I will never forget! Not only did we get an amazing ceremony but we gained a lifetime friend in Chuck!

Reverend Charles Blair is hands down your officiant of choice! Over a few brief sessions together, Chuck spent the time asking the pertinent questions, finding out what is truly important to us, offering incredibly helpful suggestions and at all times made us feel comfortable throughout the process. It was then no surprise that Chuck lead and delivered a really inspirational, personal and spectacular wedding ceremony that not only touch us greatly, but also our family members and friends as well. Thank you again Reverend Blair for being a wonderful part of our incredible wedding day that we will absolutely never forget! Jennifer & Matthew Sullivan

us by the Cairnwood staff, and we are extremely happy that we chose to move ahead with him. Chuck offers up to 6 pre-wedding meetings. Unfortunately, due to limited time, we could only take advantage of two of these. However, these were both extremely helpful and even after 9 years of dating, they helped us to learn new things about our relationship. His counsel was truly appreciated and beneficial. In additional, on the day of the wedding, his charge was both personal and meaningful. Chuck took the time to get to know both of us and he took personal elements from each of our pasts to create and unique and heartfelt charge. It was a pleasure working with Chuck. We cannot recommend him any more highly.

huck's enthusiasm and outgoing personality did wonders in lightening our stress levels on and leading up to our wedding day. Chuck was extremely professional and took his role in our wedding very seriously but with a light and fun attitude. Chuck is the kind of person that you meet twice and feel like you've known for 10 years. Additionally, Chuck did a great job of facilitating our mixed faith ceremony to ensure that both of our faiths (and our families) were equally represented and important. We would highly recommend Chuck and The New Church for your wedding.

omfortable talking to him after a very short time, and once we learned about new church live we knew we had the right fit. I was raised catholic and my fiancé was raised Lutheran, and we were looking for a more relaxed Christian based ceremony. Rev. Chuck took the time to get to know us and was able to deliver a personalized and very meaningful ceremony. He had some great ideas to help make our ceremony unique to us. He also offered 5 pre-wedding counceling sessions to help us learn about each other as individuals and ourselves as a couple. One of the things that chuck said that really stuck with me was that he was happy to be there on our wedding day but he cared more about the success of our marriage -- it was pretty powerful. Overall it was a wonderful experience working with Rev Chuck and I highly recommend new church live.

rehearsal dinner and ceremony. We tailored the wedding to what was important to us and it was fitting to our personalities. I know we will continue to have a relationship with Chuck Blair and New Church Live as our lives unfold. I had a very positive experience planning and preparing for our wedding and it helped me to learn more about my husband and talk about our relationship and life we'll have together!

awesome job I knew we had to meet him. From our first visit I knew he was the right person for us. Great reverend but more important, a great man. He put no limitations on how often we could meet or talk. Really made us feel like he cared about us though we were strangers. One of the first things he said to me was "I don't care about your wedding, I care about your marriage" he was there every time we needed him before our wedding and he'll be there when we need him for years to come. Meet with him once and you'll see what I mean.

onal setting with dignity and meaning. Chuck Blair was incredible! He was a perfect fit for us. He held 6 pre marriage "counseling" sessions prior to our wedding (which we did on Skype) and were totally optional. He was tremendously open minded and really let us do whatever we wanted. I never thought that working with the ceremony would be my favorite and easiest part of the wedding planning, and it was! Chuck is a great person and did an awesome job at our ceremony. So many people of all religions complimented him. He really helped our marriage get off to the best possible start and we recommend him whole heartedly. He is also very reasonable and flexible with payment. He made our ceremony planning fun, easy, meaningful and completely tailored towards us! He will certainly do the same for you.

Chuck incredibly insightful, helpful and not to mention quite humorous. Nancy and I found a great fit with Chuck and the New Church’s more modern view of religion. We highly recommend Chuck and the New Church for anyone looking for a sincere, thoughtful and genuine experience on their wedding day.

ny guests commented that is was the most sincere wedding they had ever witnessed. Keep Swinging XOXO

ate life and how to live it today and tomorrow and not concentrate on strick rules. Chuck is the most down to earth person with good values and beliefs. So funny also! Just great to be around! We meet with him many times before the wedding to focus on communication skills and really trying to look at your partner and think about his needs and wants. Pretty much learning how to stay true to yourself but also become less selfish. We really enjoy his service at New Church Live on Sundays and was so grateful he was a part of our special day.

age and making everything really easy for me and Catherine, he was also great at preparing us for what to expect leading up to the wedding as well as our future together as husband and wife. We would meet with Chuck every couple of months to discuss how to communicate with one another through the good times and the tough times. We also know that if we have any questions for him, he is always open to listening to us and helping in any way that he can. We would highly recommend Chuck to any recently engaged couples! Thanks Chuck! -Jonathan and Catherine
