• "Could not have possibly made a better choice in our officiant. "

    "Could not have possibly made a better choice in our officiant. Everything was clearly communicated and understood. The day of our ceremony Eric absolutely blew us away. Some of our extended family thought he was an old close friend. He created a beautiful and fun personal ceremony for us, both tears and laughter were included. Honestly, if you've read this far: Book him. Give him your money. There's nothing else to it. He's fantastic."

  • "Minister Eric was a beacon of support and understanding."

    "From the moment my fiancé and I decided to advance our wedding plans, Minister Eric was a beacon of support and understanding. My father had been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer with only a week left to live. Eric's compassion shone through as he gracefully accommodated our urgent request with less than a week's notice. He worked closely with us to ensure our wedding day was not just a ceremony, but a heartfelt celebration of our love and family."

  • "Eric was PERFECT."

    "Eric was PERFECT. We found out a week before our wedding that TN does not recognize officiants ordained online, so our plan fell apart. Eric met with us and in that time planned a ceremony that was perfect to who we are. He read Pablo Neruda and Mark Twain, both perfect to who we are. We specifically asked for the religious aspects to be removed and he was completely respectful of that. I would HIGHLY recommend him."

  • "His spirit was so peaceful"

    "Eric is a Wonderful Man inside out. We got married in our home. He listened to our personal requests for a prayer, a particular scripture, and for our vows to be unique. His spirit was so peaceful that it made me and my husband not feel nervous or anxious at all. He went with our pace."

  • "Minister Eric Patton is phenomenal at what he does."

    "Minister Eric Patton is phenomenal at what he does. We were thrilled with his open-mindedness, professionalism, and just plain old charm. He is an absolutely marvelous wedding officiant."

  • "We felt like we had known him for years"

    "Even though we had never met, we felt like we had known him for years. He took time to talk to us and learn about our story. He delivered a perfect wedding ceremony."

Taquise and Baker met at the Renaissance hotel. He heard her singing in the hallway and said “You must be an American Idol!” They’ve been head over heels ever since. It was a joy to officiate for them this weekend. #nashvillewedding

Love was in the air on Valentine’s Day. Alisha and Kaleb are high school sweethearts and have been side by side for the last eight years. They got married at Gateway Island Park in Murfreesboro under the Gazebo surrounded by their closest family and friends. Perfect weather and the perfect day to say I do. Congratulations to the happy couple! @alishaa.vn @kaleb.vn #elopement #middletnweddings
I thought we were done with last minute LGBTQ weddings, but this one is for an old fashioned reason - one is in the military! Got a call this morning from these young gentlemen. Ivan and Issac met on the football field back home in California. After Ivan came home from basic training, both of them declared their love. They moved to Clarksville together and have been together for two years. They needed to get hitched quick, which we all know is my speciality. When we were talking about where to have the ceremony, they decided on #CumberlandPark. It’s an easy place to meet on weekdays and has one of my favorite views ever. They’re excited to raise a family together one day and spend their lives growing and falling deeper in love. #elopement #lgbtqelopement #nashvilleelopement
Chris and Jaimie called me this morning. They wanted to get married before they went to visit family for the holiday. They just bought an RV and are about to travel the country together. Best of luck to the happy couple! With a little iPhone magic, we had a mini photo session with a happy video they get to show of their special day.
There are a few venues that I love working with and @magnoliafarmsevents is high on my list. This past Sunday, Brooke and Cody said their vows there. Y’all know I love Tennessee and Magnolia Farms has one of the most illustrious displays of TN
There are a few venues that I love working with and @magnoliafarmsevents is high on my list. This past Sunday, Brooke and Cody said their vows there. Y’all know I love Tennessee and Magnolia Farms has one of the most illustrious displays of TN beauty that exists. Plus, they’re inclusive of all couples, so it makes me very #proud to work with them. Brooke and Cody met when they needed each other most. They give each other room to grow and thrive. It was an honor to celebrate their love with them. Photos by the brilliant @fionabattersbyphoto.

My goodness there’s nothing like an #elopement. These two were visiting from California and wanted a casual celebration of their love. We found a tree outside of their airbnb that backed up to a horse farm. Magic lives in these hills, so Adam and Hailey rightly started their marriage journey standing in their beauty. 📸@momentsphotography.co
John and Candi fell in love with Middle Tennessee, so where better than to get married at the beautiful @fallcreekfallspark. The Cumberland Plateau is home to so many waterfalls. The natural beauty is unparalleled. Many of them are reasonably accessible as well. I love an #elopement and everyone loves a #waterfall. Let’s plan it soon. #wedding #tnelopement #cumberlandplateau #middletennessee #nashvillewedding #chattanoogawedding #cookevillewedding
