Greetings from Arizona Ministers’ Founders
Phillip & Gwen Waring
Your Professional Arizona Wedding Ministers
Phoenix Wedding Ministers, Scottsdale Wedding Ministers and all of Arizona since 1977

If you do not belong to a church or know a friendly minister you have come to the right place. We would love to do our part to help create the perfect wedding ceremony for you!

Many come to Arizona to have a destination wedding and do not have a trusted clergy connection.  Some might be between churches and have not yet met a qualified wedding officiant, minister, judge, wedding pastor or priest.

Others might not be particularly ‘religious,’ but would enjoy the celebrating services of a caring, open-minded wedding minister. Our romantic civil ceremonies are among the most appreciated and enjoyed! We are creative storytellers and prolific writers who love to speak words about love.

Your customized wedding ceremony may include a traditional Unity Candle or Sand Service. You can “tie the knot” with our original Ceremony of the Golden Cords and we offer the Love Letter Wine Box Sealing Service.* Our wedding ceremonies are very inclusive and your children are often included at some point in the ceremony. You can write your own vows or say special words to each other. We offer a ceremony in which your parents or all of your married guests can renew their vows. All traditions & customs are cheerfully respected and facilitated from the heart. Plus, when you retain us, you get us and not someone you do not know.

We have won lots of awards from the wedding industry and recognize their value. Looking back at years of officiating Arizona weddings, the greatest blessings for us are the couples that have stayed in touch and have actually become our friends. They are such an encouragement to our lives and careers!

We’re here for you, too. What to do?

We performed our 10,000th wedding in May, 2010. Call right now (480-502-0707) so we can determine our availability for your wedding date, time and location. Our calendar fills quickly, so those who call early usually get us. If we can’t officiate your wedding we will find someone else from our organization you will love.

Arizona Ministers is Arizona’s first and foremost wedding officiant association. We have searched for and enlisted the very best and verified wedding ceremony officiants. You don’t have to settle for some “rogue random reverend.”

Schedule a complimentary “get acquainted” consultation with us. We want to hear your love story and wedding ceremony ideas. You’ll feel the stress melt away as we help you visualize your entire wedding day. If you don’t know where to start, we have experience, many ideas, and can explain everything clearly. You will not doubt our passion for your satisfaction. Call 480-502-0707 or if out of state, 1-877-258-1234.

Thanks for visiting! Phillip & Gwen Waring, Founders
