Dave will be our officiant for our wedding in October. Our initial meeting went so well that he was hired right away. Just from drafting our ceremony with him, we’re extremely pleased. I will update post wedding (I’m sure it will just be to add how unique and thoughtful our transcript was and how seamless the day went).

Details: Wedding • Non-denominational (mentions God) • 51 - 100 guests • Help writing vows will not be needed • English • Officiant will not be needed at the rehearsal • Officiant does not need to be present at rehearsal

Dave was the officiant at our wedding and we could not be more happy and thankful with him! He was very professional and made the process so smooth. Also… if you’re reading this, DO NOT LOOK ANYWHERE ELSE! You won’t regret it…

Last Saturday Dave officiated our wedding and we cannot say enough good things! When we sat down for our first meeting with him we had no idea where to begin. Dave walked us through various options for each part of the ceremony and allowed to us pick and choose what we liked, didn't like, wanted to change, etc. We were able to make it exactly how we wanted, even down to changing certain words here and there. Dave was always super responsive, punctual, and professional, while still being laid-back, funny, and a calm on the big day. He is fun to work with, great at what he does, and will make your day the best! Huge thanks, Dave!!!

My husband and I had to completely reimagine our wedding day due to COVID-19. Enter David. Not only was he professional and helpful, he turned a potentially stressful situation into the most relaxed ceremony we could have dreamed of. We met virtually once to go over how we would create our one-of-a-kind ceremony. As a couple who did not really know what we wanted to be said or read, David came prepared with every option. We're so lucky that we found David to be our officiant.

FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

  I've restructured my pricing several times since staring Love, Honor, and Cherish, and I feel as though I've arrived at a point where I'm offering the most straightforward options for couples planning for their big day. There are officiants out there who charge a great deal more than I, and I'm still trying to figure out what services they provide that allow them to charge the exorbitant fees they do. I'm not into the whole "a la carte, pay me extra for sand ceremonies or for a bigger wedding" ideology. It's not costing me any more to perform a service in front of 200 people than it is in front of 20, so it makes no sense to me to raise my prices for larger weddings or to include smaller ceremonies within the larger one. If you have any questions at all about any of the services I provide or the pricing structure I use, don't hesitate to get in touch.

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  I always like to have an initial meeting with my customers early in the process to make sure I fit into the vision you have of your ceremony. Then I keep in frequent contact with the couple in the period leading up to the rehearsal and the ceremony so that there are no surprises on your big day.

• What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

  I hold both undergraduate and graduate degrees in English, so I understand how important it is to use just the right words in every situation. I've also been a classroom teacher for the past 18 years, so I'm perfectly comfortable speaking in front of large groups of people.
