Mr. Irby is a good deal. I paid $150, but got no rehearsal. I didn't mind that. When I spoke to Mr. Irby, he impressed upon me that he is a government official and not a religious figure, so he doesn't do religious ceremonies. I was thrilled, because my husband and I are athiests. However, when we had the ceremony, the first word out of his mouth was "God." Everyone in the wedding party knew something was wrong, and I laughed during almost the entire ceremony. It was NOT what we asked for. I was disappointed, but my husband even more than me. It's not like it ruined anything, because it's a funny story, but still--it's not what I asked for.
