Greetings from Arizona Minister
Phillip Waring
Your Professional
Arizona Wedding Officiant


Most folks in Arizona have their own church and minister. I love to help couples that do not!

I am best known as the husband of Gwen Waring and retired minister of Chapel Bellavista. We started Chapel Bellavista in 2000 after 24 years of traditional ministry here in Arizona. Chapel was a very laid-back fellowship that never collected money or enlisted members. We just worshiped, had fellowship.


Many destination weddings are held here and couples do not have a clergy connection. Some might not belong to a church and have not yet met a qualified Arizona wedding officiant, Phoenix wedding pastor or priest. We have now devoted ourselves to full-time wedding leadership to help couples navigate the reality show called "The Arizona Wedding Industry." We're replacing the impersonal business with trusted personal relationships, and it makes all the difference in the world. Check out Arizona Wedding Packages.

Although retired from the church, I will continue to help plan and officiate weddings all over Arizona. Because some people do not have a specific religion, my romantic civil ceremonies are among the most appreciated and enjoyed!
Everyone can enjoy the celebrating services of a caring, open-minded wedding minister. I want your wedding to be an amazing experience!

Your personalized ceremony may include a traditional unity candle or trendy sand ceremony. If you have your children at the ceremony, they are often recognized and included. You can write your own vows. I'm also the first minister to offer officiating all or part of your ceremony with you facing your guests. They love to see your smiling faces! You will love your wedding ceremony!


"I wanted to thank you for the lovely marriage ceremony you conducted for my daughter and new son-in-law. I’ve never witnessed a more comfortable and appropriate wedding. Your approach, style, and your understanding were much appreciated by those who love them."


Happy to mention that I love storytelling and writing. I wrote for Arizona wedding publications for more than ten years. See some of my articles at About.com.

Stonebridge Manor offers wonderful wedding packages that include me as officiant. I also serve Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Glendale, Chandler, Gilbert, Sedona, Flagstaff, Tucson, The Grand Canyon and every place in between. I am often found serving at homes and parks. I am regularly referred by The Royal Palms, The Four Seasons, Sassi, and The Boulders. In fact, dozens of fine wedding venues have me at the top of their referral list.

Arizona offers an optional Covenant Marriage License. If you choose that marriage license option, I am qualified and professionally prepared to offer the premarital counseling. Counseling is not required for a regular Arizona Marriage License.


Call soon so we may determine my availability for your date, time and wedding location. If for any reason I am not available for your date and time, I have 22 fantastic friends that are ministers ready to serve your family.

Call anytime to schedule a private, complimentary "get acquainted" consultation.
