Ceremony & live music, one trusted professional.

I’m Randy Bennett: an ordained pastor who sings and plays guitar. I’ll write and officiate a ceremony that is truly yours, and fill it with live music, so you have one fewer vendor to coordinate on your wedding day.

Your officiantRandy Bennett

One pastor. One musician.
One less thing to coordinate.

Most couples juggle an officiant, a ceremony musician and a stack of emails. With The Singing Pastor, it’s one conversation and one calm presence from rehearsal to recessional.

Personal, never scripted

No fill-in-the-blank template. Your story, your vows and your traditions shape the ceremony, whether it’s religious, interfaith or entirely secular.

Music woven into the moment

Live vocals and guitar for your processional, unity moment and recessional, with optional cocktail hour and reception sets. I bring my own professional sound system.

Calm, seasoned, responsive

Years of leading services have taught me to stay steady and adapt when plans change.

The ceremony

A ceremony that sounds like the two of you.

Randy officiates weddings of every kind and works with you in advance so the day feels meaningful rather than generic.
