About
I have been officiating weddings since 2004, and I love creating wedding ceremonies that reflect your beliefs and spiritual orientation. I am comfortable with interfaith, religious and non-religious weddings.
I am a spiritually oriented Interfaith minister, and I bring presence, awareness and light to the ceremonies I create. I love bringing out the essence of a couple's love story in the ceremony.
It gives me great pleasure to create a custom ceremony which includes your personal love story, one that highlights what is unique about the two of you.
I love to be creative and find just the right reading or prayer for the couple. Contact me for a conversation to determine what type of ceremony will work best for you.

Working with Dani was a seamless process and she really made sure that we understood how everything works and sent over drafts and templates for us to follow. She made our ceremony feel so special and although we had just met her via zoom before our big day, it felt as if we had known her for a long time! If you’re planning a Santa Barbara wedding ceremony then rest assured, Dani is your girl! Thank you for being a part of our day.

Dani was great! She arrived on time and provided us a personal professional experience. She got to know both me and my husband to help make the vow renewal so beautiful. Thank you Dani for helping to make our day so special!
Thank you,

Dani did a FANTASTIC job as our officiant. She picked up on our style so well! She was able to write the most touching ceremony! So much that many of our guests asked how we knew her since it seemed she knew us so well! It was so perfect and our ceremony would not have been the same without her. She is warm, kind and incredibly personable and would recommend her in a heartbeat.

Dani is a great officiant! She responded to our request right away and we had great communication leading up to the wedding. She's very professional and put together a lovely modern and personal ceremony for us. She arrived early to the venue and gave us a wonderful ceremony. Would highly recommend Dani Antman!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Ceremonies start at $350 for a custom service, with additional travel surcharge for travel outside of Santa Barbara and for rehearsals.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically we have an initial phone call, and I describe the structure of a wedding service and what I provide. Then, we often correspond by email, going back and forth until the draft of the ceremony is perfected.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated from the All Faiths International Seminary in NYC, in 2004, as an ordained Reverend.
It was a one year training.
