What is your theological background?
 

Ordained Minister in both the Disciples of Christ and Missionary Baptist Denominations.  Graduate of Memphis Theological Seminary.


How long have you been performing weddings?

2024 marks my 21st year in ministry.

What do you like BEST about weddings?

I’m honored whenever I have the opportunity to share such special and memorable moments with couples who are pledging their lives to one another eternally.  The best moments are those where anxieties are met with laughter and reassurance that the love and friendship the couple shares will carry them through the immediate moment of the wedding into the longer more significant moments of the marriage.

"I’m honored to be able to officiate your wedding ceremony. 

I look forward to serving you as your celebrate your life-long commitment of love and friendship.

Together we can make your ceremony unforgettable for all the right reasons."

What couples are saying about Pastor Earle...

" We wanted to do a quick simple symbolic wedding renewal in front of the Graceland gates so I reached out to God squad..they were quick to respond and super helpful about fulfilling such an idea...it was just my wife and I so we didn't need a big event type service so I was so happy to find they could make it happen... they emailed updates and even sent an email a few days prior as a check in/reminder that they were excited to see us soon.

Pastor Earle was our officiant and he arrived exactly when he said he would and was so personable and fun that we had a wonderful experience. My wife and I both mentioned later that we really enjoyed how he performed and delivered the renewal..and the bonus was that we got a renewal certificate that listed the renewal was performed at "gates of Graceland', which make the certificate that much more special to us.

I know they also do bigger events but if you want a neat, no frills, simple ceremony at Graceland gates like we did then these guys are perfect for that.""Earle was wonderful! He was very warm and kind and has a great sense of humor. Being nervous and all on the way to the wedding once we saw him, he instantly had a calming effect on us. He is very sincere and makes you feel at ease and provided a heartfelt and beautiful ceremony for us. He made it truly magical and a moment we will never forget. Thank you Earle for making our day extra special!"


"Quinton and I were blessed to have Pastor Earle officiate our wedding! He was so helpful in providing us details on how to obtain our marriage license being that we were from out-of-town. They were also very flexible in working our friend (who was recently ordained as a Deacon) and us writing our own vows into our ceremony. They helped soothe both Quinton and I's nerves before our ceremony and everyone complimented the sweetness and special-ness of our ceremony. We highly recommend the God Squad - you will NOT be disappointed!!!"


"Pastor Earle was absolutely fabulous! He made my ceremony sentimental, sweet, and funny, all at the same time. So many of my wedding guests raved about how beautiful my ceremony was. Earle has the perfect personality for this job, and I am so glad I used him for my wedding!"
