When our plan for ceremony at the Justice of the Peace was unexpectedly cancelled, we contacted David to perform our wedding. He is great - very thoughtful, caring, and genuine. He responded immediately and communicated well from start to finish. I wholeheartedly recommend David as a wedding officiant.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I try to stay as low as possible, yet competitive with my peers. My peers charge travel fees, consultation fees, fees for vows, fees for consultation. We can chat, we can pray, we can negotiate. I will stay as close to $250 as I can. Tips are always welcomed.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I'll introduce myself and my services, check to see if counseling or understanding is needed then explain the ceremony and perform it.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a BA in Pastoral Counseling with a minor in Theology. I have worked fulltime in ministry up until 10 years ago when I took a secular job to support my family. I am an ordained minister, but volunteer my services mostly these days with prison ministry.
