Pastor Tiaan Kok – Wedding Officiant

It is my honor and great privilege to help couples celebrate and bind one of God’s greatest gifts: The marriage covenant.

I am a biblical and faith based Christian minister and evangelist with over 10 years of ministry experience. My approach to weddings combines reverence for the sacred covenant of marriage with a warm sense of humor, creating ceremonies that are both meaningful, heartfelt and enjoyable.

My beliefs are firmly rooted on the word of God. I believe marriage is God’s design and a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman, joined together by God as one. I stand on the believe that Scripture is the final authority for faith, marriage and life.

I am passionate about biblical love, which goes beyond emotions and is expressed through commitment, faithfulness, sacrifice, forgiveness, and service.

My desire is to help couples begin their marriage with Christ at the center, forming a strong biblical covenantal foundation for the years ahead.
