Christopher Burgess
Ordained Minister in Gunnison, Utah
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I chose to become ordained because my brother asked me to officiate his upcoming marriage.
Where are you from?
I am from South-Central Utah
What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
My main goal is to provide marriage services where I only ask for donations/tips instead of requiring payment. I may possibly conduct funerals in emergency situations.
Religious Affiliations
Catholicism, Christianity, Universal Life Church
Additional Information
I am a practicing Catholic. Due to this, I choose not to conduct such ceremonies/practices as baptism, last rights, traditional Catholic ceremonies, or confirmation.
What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a Gunnison, UT wedding officiant?
I am willing to conduct special request ceremonies within reason that are not offered by local denominations. I will do my best to do the research on how to conduct the ceremony of your choice.
Are there particular areas near you where you prefer to travel or have special experience?
The area that I live in is surrounded by beautiful mountain. Bridal Veil Falls in Provo Canyon has a special place in my heart whereas that is where my engagement photos took place. I do travel to Georgia every June.

Additional Information
