    Andeew and Emily's Wedding

    Our day with Dave could not be more perfect. During our wedding search we were looking for a justice of the peace that could be comfortable and fit well, but also that was going to distract us from our nerves. It was everything we imagined and more. The wedding was beautiful, I felt relaxed, and I just can't say enough about how amazing it was. Happiest day of our lives.

    The narrator to your happy ever after

    Wow. Where do we even start with David? Is it his professionalism that sold us? Was it his pure character? Was it his dedication to making sure we were completely satisfied with the script every step of the way? Who knows. What we DO know is that we got married 2 days ago and the words David spoke during our wedding still make us and our families tear up thinking about it.

    David is the kind of person you WISH conducted your ceremony so thank yourself for finding him. We had a very complex dynamic needed for our wedding and David ALREADY had an outlines prepared for our first meeting that with a slight bit of tweaking ended up being nothing short of perfection.

    He handles the drop off of your certificate as well and updates you if anything happens along the way. He is a wonderful human being and his talent for expressing your love is unmatched. Book with him now if you want that fairytale wedding.

    Go with David!

    The man is freaking great. He’s super nice, a pleasure to be around, knows exactly what he’s doing and he’s very experienced. It was such a pleasure working with him he walks you through the entire process there was no guessing for us at all. And best of all his price is incredibly reasonable compared to many others! Give David a call :)

    Highly recommended!

    It can be a big decision to include a stranger on your special day. However, I have no hesitation in recommending David to officiate any wedding. He is professional, charismatic, punctual and all the other great things you would want. He helped to guide us through the process and customized everything to fit us best. We are very thankful to have found him for our special day!

    Wedding 6.16.23

    We received so many compliments on our ceremony length and meaning and we have David to thank for that! He made the whole process so easy by editing a google doc together, so we knew what to expect day of. David was the perfect mix of professional and easy going and an overall great person. It was truly touching seeing David get a bit emotional during the ceremony- many people asked where we knew him from even though we had only met in person once before! We highly recommend him!

    Made the Ceremony!

    Very responsive and accommodating! The Groom was very Nervous and said the brides name when he was suppose to say his own. And instead of making it awkward, Dave with Love, Honor and Cherish made everyone laugh and kept the ceremony light and perfect! Highly recommend!!

    Great officiant!

    Dave officiated our wedding in April 2023. He was so easy to work with and made the process seamless! We loved that he had templates for us to work with to craft our ceremony in a way that felt personalized to us. We made lots of changes along the way and Dave was completely on board with each and every one. Highly recommend hiring Dave for your wedding - he's professional, affordable, and helps make your ceremony exactly what YOU want it to be!

    Excellent officiant!

    When we first met Dave over Zoom it felt like we were speaking with an old friend. We shared some laughs, got to know him better, and told him about ourselves and our ideas for our wedding ceremony. We had actually read other reviews on Wedding Wire and realized they all shared the commonality that Dave is professional and a pleasure to work with as an officiant, and they couldn't be more true. He offered many options for ceremony structure and content (including everything from traditional religious ceremonies to more relaxed contemporary ceremonies) and was very friendly and easy-going throughout the entire process. We mainly communicated through email and Zoom, and he was always happy to answer our questions as we worked to bring our ceremony vision to life. He was able to accommodate all of our requests, and delivered a beautiful ceremony on our big day. We highly recommend Dave as a wedding officiant for your special day!

    A++++ Can't Go Wrong Here!

    Including a stranger in one of the most intimate moments of the wedding day was initially a difficult thought. However, David's welcoming and calm demeanor instantly puts that thought aside and we felt comfortable and excited to work with him. Our meet and greet to review the ceremony sketch was beyond our expectations and I found myself tearing up in the middle of a busy coffee shop while we selected from his many choices of ceremony outlines. Even further, I can't thank him enough for his affordable pricing. Not a single regret with choosing Love, Honor, and Cherish!

    Best Wedding Officiant

    If you are looking for someone to officiate your wedding stop right here! Dave is incredible! We met Dave to see if he was the "right fit" and we knew instantly he was. He made us feel comfortable, made us laugh and helped us plan our perfect ceremony at the first meeting!! Dave was easy to communicate with and fast to respond. The day of our wedding I was so happy to see Dave arrive and his calm nature kept us calm. My dad loved how he walked him through his job of walking me down the aisle and the official "handoff" to my husband! My photographer loved how Dave knew to "dive out of the way" for our first kiss shot! Our guests couldn't stop telling us how beautiful and special our ceremony was! Dave was perfect from beginning to end and I'm so thankful we found him for our wedding.

    All we can say is... Wow!

    I knew I wanted Dave to officiate our wedding as soon as I found his website! I was ecstatic when he had our day available. Dave met with us for nearly two hours in person as we went over the details of our ceremony, and we all got to know one another. Dave is incredible! He is outgoing, funny, and personable- all characteristics that we wanted for our officiant. Fast forward to the wedding day. He was there early and checked in with both of us before the start of the ceremony. We treasure the memories of our ceremony. I broke down ugly crying and laughing during my vows, and Dave humorously coached me through to the end. ALL of our guests complimented how well-spoken and fun Dave was. He also took care of getting our signed marriage license to the town hall, and we were able to get our certified copies printed by the end of the week! No one else could have compared to him. It was an honor to have Dave marry us!

    Simply the Best!

    One of the best choices we made when it came to our wedding was choosing Dave as our officiant! He is professional, charismatic, and overall a great human being. He brought a level of calmness to one of the most stressful and high emotion days that made us both take a deep breath and relax. The months leading up to the wedding, he was prompt and responsive and made the whole process very seamless! Our ceremony was intimate and beautiful, and is something we will both remember for the rest of our lives. I cannot recommend and speak highly enough of Dave! Everyone at our wedding had something wonderful to say about our ceremony and it couldn’t have been possible without him!

    Fantastic to Work With

    David was a great officiant to work with. We had a small ceremony, that we had planned on our own. He was able to work with us and create vows that were just what we were looking for. Something simple, and included our children in the process. It was perfectly imperfect!

    Setting the Perfect Scene

    I'll be honest! I'd fully forgotten about the need for an officiant and realized about a month out from my wedding day. To put it simply, I was STRESSED out! But that all changed when I got to connect with Dave.

    After reaching out to Dave on The Knot, he was (thank god) available for our wedding day. And he was immediate in his responses and incredibly enthusiastic. We decided to set up a meeting for later that same week and upon meeting him, we knew we'd made the right choice. Dave was immediately energetic, personable, and charismatic and we knew he'd be the best person to officiate our ceremony. In that first meeting, he broke everything down for us in a really clear and easy-to-understand way that made all of my nerves and fears dissipate. I just KNEW we were in good hands.

    My fiance and I aren't very religious and tend to be pretty chill. We wanted a short and sweet ceremony and Dave delivered exactly that for us. He matched the vibe we wanted to a tee! After that meeting, he kept us up-to-date and informed on the script and progress and I never worried. I was able to just show up on wedding day and everything went as planned. It was a beautiful ceremony with laughs and happy tears and Dave really made it all come together. I cannot thank him enough!

    We had the privilege of working with Dave for our special day. He was incredible! He had everything written out for us to proofread before hand and he ran the ceremony with grace. He was on time and looked sharp too! We’re so happy our ceremony went so smoothly. I cannot recommend him enough!

    Dave was an amazing officiant and I'm so glad we chose him. He was easy going, experienced and clearly loves officiating weddings. He made great suggestions for how we could make our ceremony special for us even though we didn't want to write and recite our own vows. His communication was great and keep us feeling calm and assured that our ceremony would go smooth.

    A great experience from start to finish

    Dave is absolutely wonderful! From our first conversation, we knew that he was the right officiant for our wedding. He was warm, genuine, and full of humor. He was helpful in reviewing our personal vows, and throughout our planning process. Many guests told us after our ceremony that Dave was the first wedding officiant they had seen who made a positive impression on them. Dave crafted the perfect ceremony for our vision of our marriage and our wedding.

    Completely Personalized and Professional Ceremony

    David was absolutely fantastic. He helped us completely customize our ceremony and had offered up several suggestions for readings, vows, and general passages for the ceremony. He also was completely flexible and open to us finding our own things and customizing the language. Additionally, he was completely comfortable adding on/taking away religious aspects of the ceremony based on our comfort level. He never made us felt pressured to make choices in the ceremony based on his preferences leaving us with the feeling of a truly customized and personalized ceremony, just for us. On the wedding day, he showed up promptly and checked in with us to make sure we were comfortable and make sure there were no last minute changes. It was fantastic. He did all of this for an insanely reasonable price. Cannot say enough good things!

    An Amazing Experience

    Hiring Dave was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! He is responsive, reasonably priced, and knowledgeable. He has a great personality for this job, and our guests loved him. Dave traveled quite a distance for our wedding, which we appreciated. We also got married in a different state than where Dave is licensed, and he took care of all the necessary paperwork promptly. After meeting in person, Dave will share a copy of your wedding ceremony with you, and you can edit it as much as you want. We are pretty traditional people, but Dave has some unique options for your ceremony that we loved and used for our ceremony. Dave is kind and easy to work with. I would recommend him to anyone!
