    One of my staff was recently married by Bruce in an outdoor setting. I have to say that it was the…read morebest wedding I have ever been to. I really loved the smile on his face when they played the Star Wars theme as the groom came down the aisle. You could tell that he really wanted this to be one of the best days of their lives.

    Bruce Adlington was our marriage commissioner and he did such a wonderful job for us at our…read morewedding. Everything was very smooth from initial phone calls all the way to the day of. He took the time to really get a good feel for us and our relationship and he was a soothing presence when we got very emotional at the altar. He has just the right amounts of soothing presence, humor and command of the room to be a wonderful commissioner. I've been to many weddings and I've seen some commissioners that are to cold, to impersonal, to humorous, to serious, to quiet or too much the center of attention that it distracted but Bruce was just right. He even had a top hat in his closet which matched our theme very well and we were delighted he offered to wear it for us. Even though we had a small wedding, I know he booked another wedding because my aunt raved to her friend about how good he was at ours (and when would that normally happen?) He let us customize the ceremony. He e-mailed us his generic and then let us write in things. He then would put it into his own words to make it flow. I found when I got his generic ceremony it was already without many of the yucky parts I wanted to remove.. like the whole obey things. eww. We didn't make a lot of changes because I already liked it, but we did add some special parts and that all went smoothly. He also gave us a decorative print out of the ceremony which was nice. Some things I would recommend: We had a small wedding that was accoustically alive and I was still greatful for the ceremony being amplified with microphones. Bruce has his own system that can be used for this. Bruce's wife is a harpist and I never would have thought we'd hire a ceremony musician but I'm glad I did after experiencing the frustrations of prerecorded music at the reception. Jan of Avalon Harp and Bruce have done this together so often the music and the ceremony just flowed well through all the transitions and sounds wonderful on the video. Bruce kind of sold us on thinking about it and we are glad we booked them together. Although we had a ceremony at a venue, he has a nice yard he uses for small weddings at his home which is something that might interest some people. I would certainly encourage anyone getting married to give him a call if you're looking for a marriage commissioner.
