Since 2018, I’ve had the honor of officiating weddings, beginning with a close friend’s ceremony. Now, I’m excited to bring my passion for creating meaningful and personalized wedding experiences to couples on a regular basis. Whether you’re seeking a traditional, modern, or custom ceremony, I’m here to help you celebrate your love in a way that reflects your unique story.

I am Reverend Wayne K. Redman, and I currently serve as senior pastor of the First Church Baldwin, United Methodist Church in Baldwin New York. I have been an ordained minister since, 2016, and previously worked with congregations in the capacity as a Certified Lay Minister, and Certified Lay Servant for over twenty years, before becoming a member of the clergy.

The beginning of their new life together has brought me much joy. I bring expertise and lovely expressions during my work as an Officiate.
