Rev. Christopher was absolutely incredible! My husband and I were so impressed with the responsiveness, professionalism, how personalized our ceremony was, and the complete and total attentiveness to detail. We did a low costing wedding that we wanted to be sentimental and low key. Rev. Christopher completed this visualization of ours and took so many of our worries away. We met with him and everything was laid out for us. It was the easiest process for us to get the exact ceremony we wanted. Rev. Christopher's prices are the best for all the services that are provided. We were able to do a rehearsal that he was very flexible to schedule with us since our wedding was on a Monday at 11:30 and we wanted to get a similar feel for the weather out side at that time. Rev. Christopher listened to everything we had to say and created the most personable ceremony that we and our guests were able to all enjoy. Any concerns or questions we had we were able to email him and received a response in a very professional and quick manner. The cost was right in our price range since we didn't want to spend more than 1,500 total on our wedding (wanted to spend more on a fancy honeymoon.. which we loved)! Rev. Christopher made each step easy, relaxing, and fun. From our rehearsal to the morning of the wedding we felt comforted that we had someone who was so efficiently prepared no matter what last minute changes happened. He was able to go over everything with my ring bearer and sign holder who weren't able to attend the rehearsal. Not only does he go above and beyond anyone's expectations of an Officiant, he truly makes every second of your wedding ceremony about you and your significant other. I am completely blown away with the professionalism and compassion that you get with his services. Thank you Rev. Christopher I still read over our ceremony and cry every time with tears of joy. read more

Where do I begin with Rev. Christopher.... My husband and I had the pleasure of meeting him a few months ago when planning our wedding. From the first day we met the Rev. we knew he would perform a perfect ceremony for us. We were so excited after our first meeting with him because he took the time to get to know us and ask us personal questions about ourselves, our love and our wishes for our ceremony - instead of just getting money from us and meeting us on the wedding day. From that meeting he created the most beautiful and heartfelt ceremony we could have asked for. Our ceremony had everyone in tears and we are still getting compliments on how special and touching it was, he beyond exceeded our expectations and we will hold our ceremony dear to our hearts for the rest of our lives. I would have paid thousands for Christophers beautiful work, yet he was VERY affordable and very flexible to our schedule. He and his wife made us feel very comfortable and ready for the big day, including a pre-wedding rehearsal. He went through little things like where to hold your flowers, how fast to walk, and he showed the boys what to do (Lets face it, boys need special attention when it comes to appropriate wedding behavior.) Everything was taken care of for us and we felt very calm on the big day thanks to Rev. Christopher. The quality of Christophers work cannot be put into words...he is the best choice for your wedding, hands down - Trust me on this. We are looking forward to having Christopher perform blessings on our children in the future. Not only did we get an amazing ceremony, but we met an amazing man who truly wants nothing more than to make a beautiful moment for you and your loved ones. We cannot thank Christopher enough for giving us such a special memory. He has left a long lasting imprint on our lives. Thank you again and again Rev. Christopher - The Wiggins. read more

Reverend Christopher was truly wonderful to work with, and we are so grateful that we chose him to be part of such an important day in our lives. He took everything both of us had shared with him and somehow brought it together into a ceremony that felt incredibly personal, meaningful, and true to us. His words reflected not only our relationship, but the life and family we have built together, and that made the ceremony feel so much more special. One of the biggest things we appreciated was how important it was to us that our officiant celebrate not only our marriage, but the joining of our entire family. We have LGBTQ+ children, and we wanted every one of our kids to feel completely loved, included, and celebrated as part of this new chapter. Reverend Christopher was immediately warm, supportive, and genuinely excited to work with all of us, which meant more to us than I can really express. Another huge gift was the experience that both Reverend Christopher and his wife brought to the rehearsal. I had never been through a wedding rehearsal before and honestly had no idea what I was doing. They absolutely did. They calmly walked all of us through everything, answered questions, helped organize the wedding party, and made sure everyone understood exactly what would happen the next day. Because of them, we went into the actual ceremony feeling prepared and confident instead of nervous or unsure, and I was incredibly grateful for that. They brought so much warmth, knowledge, and care to the entire experience. Our ceremony felt beautiful, inclusive, personal, and completely ours. I would wholeheartedly recommend Reverend Christopher and would absolutely give him five stars. read more

Rev. Christopher absolutely exceeded our best hopes. My wife and I could not be more impressed with the wonderful ceremony he officiated on our behalf. His genuine care for and attention to detail in truly personalizing our ceremony was inspiring and so very much appreciated. This gentleman is truly fulfilling his Divine Calling in life. He managed to set a love-centered tone of peace and celebration. Truly, our ceremony was the finest of any we have ever had the good fortune to witness, much less be a part of! Each family member and friend present was touched and inspired by his evident and sincere care and good-natured spirit, making them feel fully included in the love my wife and I radiantly shared that day. We feel blessed to have had Reverend Christopher Scuderi of Universal Heart Ministry to so perfectly officiate our wedding. Sometimes in life, you meet very special people. Occasionally you meet outstanding people. Rarely do you meet truly exceptional people who so elegantly and positively influence your life for the better. Reverend Christopher is one of these. It is because of 'who he is' at his core that in God's service 'what he does' is so very special. We are honored to have had the very good fortune of having him officiate our wedding and proudly count him as a friend for whom we would do much in gratitude for how he helped and served us so very well. read more

Reverend Christopher was AMAZING. We had a small elopement and a very non-traditional venue (out on the shores of the Great Salt Lake) He made everything go so smoothly and was so reassuring and knowledgeable. I thankfully haven't had too many weddings (haha) so this was all completely new to me. Since we had no family attending it was great to have that reassurance and human touch; we were eloping but it felt so warm and inclusive. We are non-traditional but still wanted more than a cold paper-signing in a windowless room--that was my biggest fear and luckily thanks to Reverend Christopher it was soooooo soooo much better than that. Instead of being thrown off by our odd request or non-traditional ceremony wishes he not only accommodated but went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable with the words said, checking with me beforehand. I wanted a truly unique wedding experience and I got it. It was absolutely beautiful and we both cried--we are not criers!!!--I was worried about remembering everything said and lo and behold, he took care of that too with giving us a print of our vows. They hang on our wall near the marriage certificate :) I would recommend Reverend Christopher to ANYONE regardless of the nature of your ceremony. It's clear he loves what he does, and he is fantastic at it. read more

I truly don't even know where to begin to try and explain how grateful I am that we were lucky enough to have Reverend Christopher officiate our wedding. I don't know how we thought we could do it without him. He made the entire planning process, from beginning to end, the most professional, exciting, touching, personal, incredible experience possible. He made our ceremony unique and specialized for us as a couple. He took the time to understand each of us as separate people and also us as a couple. He is so detail oriented and he understands the important things that slipped our minds. He is so open minded and was completely accepting of our personally held beliefs. He really customized our ceremony so it felt most authentic to us. We are not religious people and so we were very nervous trying to find someone who was understanding. Rev, Christopher knocked it out of the park. We both felt heard and represented in our ceremony and truly you cannot ask for more. He was incredible from beginning to end. He is truly the best of the best. I recommend him to all of our family and friends for all of his services. He does it all. We can't thank you enough, Rev. Christopher!! You made our wedding day the most amazing day of our lives. Thank you!! read more

My wife, Angie, and I were married on July 29th 2015 in Monument Valley, Utah, at The View Hotel. The Reverend Christopher officiated with the magnificent valley as his backdrop. Since we are from the UK, we had never met Reverend Christopher before, 'conversing' via e-mail, as is todays standard! Upon meeting him and his lovely wife, Teinamarrie, we were immediately put at ease during what was and had been, a very busy and somewhat stressful day. We found the Reverend Christopher to be a friendly and charming individual, with an air of calm about him at all times. He has a very professional approach to everything he does, both leading up to the big day and during the ceremony itself. Speaking of which, it was clear that he had gone to some lengths in order to find words that suited our personal circumstances exactly, proving that he is not only a good speaker, but also a great listener. We had the pleasure of his company during dinner, following the wedding ceremony at the edge of the valley, at sunset. All in all, a very enjoyable day. Moreover, we feel as though we have made new friends across the miles. I would have no hesitation in recommending his services to you. read more

Rev. Christopher is hands down one of thee best people I have ever met in my life. I could not have chosen a better person to perform our ceremony. From our initial meeting he was such a kind man and I could tell he truly is passionate about what he does. He was very low priced - especially for the quality work he does. I had 75 year old people telling me that it was the most intimate, precious and beautiful ceremonies they have ever seen performed. (You can only imagine how many weddings they have been to.) He made us feel very comfotable about everything he has this amazing questionaire that he asks you on your initial meeting and it can create your wedding to have a very strong religious feel or a light spiritual and everything in between. We were sent some homework to write our personal vows and he worded everything so beautifully. A part that I really liked was that he gave you the option to read your vows yourself or repeat after him as he read them. He made the rehersal dinner easy and very fun, such a quick thorough process and everyone was ready. I will always use him for all future events. read more

First I would like to say....Thank You so much for all you did to make my special day a complete success. Rev Christopher was amazing right down to asking us what we wanted him to wear to perform our wedding, my wedding was one that was very hard to finish the final results due to our family had just experienced such a tragic accident, but the rev helped make it a little easier by including our loved one in our ceremony. Such a professional man, yet loving, caring, and a fun man to work with. i loved that everything we talked about beforehand he included in the vows...he really took the time to get to know the couple he was marrying, by listening in our initial meeting. The ceremony itself was about 20 minutes, and he did have another wedding to perform, but never did he make us feel that his time was limited, he was recommended by his beautiful wife, we know each other through family. Since the day of my wedding i am still asked who he was because it was such a beautiful ceremony. We highly highly recommend Rev Christopher Scuderi. read more

I can not even explain how professional Reverend Scuderi was!! He was the only vendor I felt like I didn't have to "check" on. He was on top of everything and as soon as we left our first meeting with him I felt a million times better about the entire wedding planning process. We were able to customize our ceremony word-for-word, exactly how we wanted it. There were 14 people in the wedding party and 4 parents, and somehow on rehearsal day he was able to manage all 18 people (20 including us)! the rehearsal was done quickly and professionaly! He even brought along his lovely wife to demonstrate exactly how each couple should walk down the aisle.. AND she brought bouquets for each bridesmaid so they would know exactly where/how to hold the bouquet (Something I NEVER thought to bring to rehearsal)!! She was also present on the wedding day and fixed my train before I walked down. I could go on forever. DO NOT USE ANYONE ELSE TO OFFICIATE YOUR WEDDING. THANK YOU. read more

Our wedding ceremony (Ann and Tony) was joyfully performed in Salt Lake City at Rodizio Grill Trolley Square by Rev. Christopher T. Scuderi of the Universal Heart Ministry (non-denominational) on 12-22-2017. We shared our special day with our friends Karin and Amir (our witnesses) who brought us together in the first place. It was a perfect day. Rev. Christopher was so kind and professional. The ceremony was lovely. There was a touching moment during the ceremony as my heart swelled with joy and I started to cry Rev. Christopher handed me his handkerchief. If you are looking for someone to perform a wedding, baby/pet blessing, or funeral/memorial we would highly recommend Rev. Christopher. He had several wedding ceremony choices and ways you could customize it to fit you wishes. We selected the religious Kiss and Go ceremony with modern vows. We are so happy we plan to make Rev. Christopher a part of our lives from now on. read more

Rev. Christopher Scuderi was absolutely great before, during, and after our ceremony. He is very kind, open, and welcoming of all people (i.e. he is not judgemental - something I myself was worried about when searching officiants in Utah). Prior to our wedding he conducted a thorough interview, asking all questions and details in one go. This was very appreciated as the big day was quickly approaching and got this very important item "checked-off" quickly and efficiently with little stress. During the ceremony, Christopher Scuderi was very professional and flexible. He spoke loudly and clearly in a manner than grabbed and maintained everybody's attention. We received MANY compliments on his speaking service. Follow-up after the big day was very quick - I had a question regarding the certification process and he replied within hours. We recommend Rev. Christopher Scuderi for your big day! Cheers, Michael & Bryan read more

Reverend Christopher, from Universal Heart Ministry, was a Saint to work with. He was very quick to respond to our requests, setting up meetings and going over what to expect on our big day. He was also very good at helping us focus on the really important things we wanted to say to each other and why our hearts are meant to be together. He is very kind, smiles constantly and very easy to have a conversation with. He offers his service covering the entire spectrum from very religious to not religious at all for whatever fits you. Reverend Christopher also had some additional great ideas of things you can do during the ceremony if you choose. He is very thoughtful and even though to have an extra handkerchief for my bride as she teared up during our ceremony. I would absolutely recommend to anyone that hasn't decided on an officiant, to meet with Reverend Christopher. You will be extremely pleased with his service. read more

Rev. Christopher was amazing! We could not have picked a better reverend. He married my brother and his wife and we knew he'd do great. We had a same sex lesbian wedding and he made us feel completely comfortable and helped us decide what things would need to be changed and allowed us to make changes right up until the day of the wedding. He is extremely professional and polite. I was beyond impressed. He also was very affordable and definitely worth the cost! I loved the way he laid out the ceremony and I was asked by many friends and family where we found such an amazing reverend. I received many compliments and comments that it was the most beautiful ceremony our friends have been to. This was thanks to Reverend Christopher. He was the reason my wedding ceremony was perfect and beautiful and beautifully written. I was thoroughly impressed and would highly highly recommend him!!!! read more

Rev. Christopher and his wife were both incredibly helpful in our wedding planning. My husband and I traveled from the East Coast for a destination wedding after my Mother passed away suddenly and they both were very sensitive on how to address my vows and those who could not be there. I couldn't have prayed for a better Reverend and am so grateful for him and his wife being there. We had Skype meetings with him along with getting helpful tips and "homework" assignments that helped us figure out how to write our vows and how we wanted the ceremony performed. Phenomenal! Thank you so much Reverend Christopher for such an easy and stress free beautiful wedding ceremony. You and your wife are truly a wonderful gift! (Thank you for wearing chucks with me!) I wish there was more gratitude I could express on how wonderful this Reverend and his wife truly are. Well done! read more

Rev. Christopher is simply an amazing officiant. He is experienced, genuine, affordable and truly loves what he does. He took a lot of pressure off the ceremony planning. We met with him once prior to the wedding.;both my husband and I were impressed by his professionalism. We opted to have a more spiritual then religious ceremony. Rev. Christopher had a wide variety of options in how to tailor the ceremony of us. He helped us out in writing our own vows for one another and even conducting a sand ceremony since it was an outdoor wedding. He spoke beautifully and his presence radiates happiness; prefect for a wedding. After the ceremony, he gave us a copy of the words spoken as a memento and even mailed in our marriage license to the state for us. I recommend Rev. Christopher 110% to share with you in your special day, he is simply the best. read more

Our wedding was very last minute, and we were wanting a small and simple ceremony. I had no idea where to find an officiant on such short notice who would also be willing to do it on a weekend day and on a budget. Reverend Scuderi responded to my inquiry within a few minutes and made everything stress free. He was very professional and excited to be a part of our special day. He made us feel important and like we were family. Even though we chose the "short and sweet" type of ceremony, he still allowed us to customize the vows and the ceremony. It was such a special day and Reverend Scuderi helped to ensure it was loving, special and everything we were looking for. He was very easy to keep in touch with in case we had any questions and the ceremony was very affordable. I'd recommend him to anyone for any type of celebration or ceremony. read more

Reverend Christopher provided a beautiful, one of a kind ring ceremony at our reception last April. He arrived right on time and went over a few details before we got started to make sure everything went as planned. His services are very affordable. In this case, the saying 'you get what you pay for' does not apply because you get even more than you expect! He made my non-LDS side of the family feel special and included in the most important day of our lives. You will only understand how special it was for us to have a ring ceremony if you have relatives that do not share the same religious beliefs. This ceremony got us all together and made us one. How cool it is that even my mom got to walk me down the aisle! He is the best. I would recommend him and his services over and over again! read more

Rev. Christopher was absolutely wonderful to work with. He was very organized, professional and reassuring to both my husband and I on our busy wedding day. I had full confidence that things would go smoothly because it was obvious that he has many years of experience. There wasn't even one moment where I was second guessing our choice to have him perform our ceremony. The first time meeting him was a lot of fun. I am not religious and I was initially worried about being judged, but that was not at all the case! He is very warm and accepting and laughed with us. We were able to really customize our ceremony to how we wanted it to feel, what was said, and who was involved. Our kids loved being able to have a role in our ceremony and it was so special. I cannot recommend him enough! read more
