Dave made my wife and I feel very comfortable from the very start. He asked questions and got a feel for what we wanted in our ceremony. He did not miss a thing, making us feel like he truly cared about our marriage and not just there reciting a bunch of words that you hear at most weddings. He was able to take our thoughts from just a few conversations and created our own personal ceremony. I would recommend Dave for anyone wanting a very special and unforgettable wedding.

Dave is professional, warm, kind, easy-going, and was absolutely the perfect choice for our wedding! We "met" online, then we spoke on the phone, and in less than 48 hours from the initial contact, Dave was marrying us in the most wonderful outdoor ceremony consisting of the bride, groom, and two witnesses. It is with sincere jubilance that I will recommend Dave to any couple, and, in fact, we wish to have Dave return in the fall for our "traditional" ceremony and celebration once the Canada/US border opens up a bit more! Thank you, Dave. We were honoured to have you marry us! xo

Dave did an amazing job officiating our wedding at the Des Moines Botanical Center! Such a nice man. I knew from the moment we spoke on the phone that I wanted Dave to officiate our wedding. Throughout the planning process, Dave was very professional in communicating and making sure I had everything in order before our big day. Very helpful!! He was very flexible with the format for the wedding day ceremony and even made room for me when I called the day of the ceremony for an addition to the ceremony as my fiancé requested I sing a song with my guitar😊 Dave is highly recommended! Great job 👏🏼 Thank you Dave!!!

Thanks so much for such a beautiful ceremony, really loved your presence and moving words during our wedding. Dave is a very gifted & talented speaker, he made us both laugh and our friends cry with his thoughtful words of wisdom on love, marriage and commitment. Incredibly responsive and went out of his way to make everyone comfortable and enjoy the ceremony. Thanks again for making our special day one we will remember fondly forever~!
