Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Rev. Todd Rodarmel from Nashvows.com was truly wonderful. From the very beginning, his communication was perfect - he was open, responsive, and made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. As a couple getting married at the Gaylord Opry Hotel in Nashville while living in Michigan, having a pastor who could meet with us over Zoom was incredibly helpful. Rev. Todd took the time to get to know us and incorporated personal touches into our ceremony that made it feel so special and meaningful. You can tell he truly loves what he does and has a deep passion for God. On the day of our wedding, his kind words and guidance helped us feel relaxed and allowed us to fully enjoy our special day. I would highly recommend Rev. Todd to any couple looking for an officiant who will make your ceremony unique and unforgettable.

We had our dream adventure elopement on 6/9/25 at Roan Mountain on the TN border. Josh created a ceremony that was personal and beautifully written just for us. To say that he went "above and beyond" is an understatement. He was so much more than "just an officiant." He was amazing! Helpful from start to finish in every way imaginable (from music, to hair, to props, pics, and more) ! He is personable, easy to get along with, and downright funny! There needs to be an option for more than 5 stars because he deserves every single one! Recommend 10/10!

I had the chance to meet Luke before my husband could, and he was more than willing to set aside time to meet with the groom before the wedding to ensure everyone felt comfortable and prepared. We also had a few Zoom calls leading up to the big day that truly helped calm our nerves and made us feel completely ready.
