Unforgettable Ceremony
My partner and I were seeking an LGBT-friendly officiant for our elopement-style ceremony and could not have been happier with Reverend Doctor Daniel’s services! He personalized the ceremony to fit what we were looking for in terms of tone as well as content. His remarks and tone were very engaging and met our unique need of a ceremony without guests which would be recorded and viewed by family and friends at a later time. He also injected some humor where appropriate which was wonderful. All of that being said, he stood out because he truly cared about making our ceremony special and personalized. We would absolutely recommend Reverend Doctor Daniel for your officiant needs!PreacherComforts's reply:
Dear Rosanna and Jackie, it was a relatively quick turn-around but it was fun to put together. The stories you included helped me with the personalization. There were two exciting byproducts of your ceremony, however, and one you probably already know. Of course, I can now say "as seen in the NYT Style section" on my website. Worth it! Also, which you might not know: the two of you introduced me to K-Pop! Love it! Looking forward to seeing your pictures. "Air hugs" :) -

Luis G. Sent on 01/22/2022The best choice!
My wife and I decided to hire Daniel to be our wedding officient, and we are very pleased with our choice! Daniel met with us via zoom to go over all the details and to of course learn more about us as a couple. He also sent us questionnaires to fill out to go into detail about certain aspects of our relationship. He brilliantly interweved the stories we shared with him together and independently during the ceremony. Daniel showed up early to get a feel of the venue, which was much appreciated by my wife since the weather was touch and go and we did not know where exactly the ceremony would be held. Since Daniel was early, he was able to plan for both options. His words during the ceremony were beautiful and caused the guests to both laugh and cry (happy tears). We are so happy with his services and thank him so much for his hard work in making our day perfect (which it was)!PreacherComforts's reply:
Luís and Rachel - I was thrilled to be your officiant. You made the process easy, and your beautifully vulnerable sharing (in both English and Spanish) are what made the ceremony what it was. Wishing you two the very best! -

Dan accommodated our schedules within weeks of my request, and was so flexible with our timing. But best of all our ceremony was exactly as we wanted it: intimate, personalized and very special. I would recommend Dan's services to anyone.PreacherComforts's reply:
Colleen and Alex - I absolutely loved working with you two. From the planning phase, to meeting out for pizza together with your child, to the actual ceremony in the beautiful Rookery building--it was all a lovely experience for me as well! I'm so pleased you were happy, and I look forward to hearing more good things from you as the years progress. -

I'm pretty attached to the pastor of my church, but we could not get married in the church due to Chad being Lutheran when I'm Catholic. Pastor Dan gave us the very traditional wedding we were looking for, along with a few creative twists, and since he knew our pastors, got them both involved in a ritual blessing together at the reception, which he orchestrated. Pastor Dan definitely understood our goals and had no ego involved with sharing the ritual blessing with our clergy. Everyone got what they wanted and then some. It was my dream for all this to happen, but I just didn't know how it would work. We definitely recommend Pastor Dan for anyone who has a dream that they don't think can be reached. He'll make it happen in some way.PreacherComforts's reply:
Di, it was a joy and privilege to work alongside my clergy colleagues and heartening that you both have a special relationship with them. Keep me posted on your next trip to Italy (see, I can remember things)! -

Best of the best!!
We didn't really know where to go for our interfaith, inter-racial, same-sex wedding ceremony, but we just kept browsing and found Pastor Dan. It was totally God. Turns out he is not a fake minister but an actual pastor! That was important to me growing up strict Apostolic. And for Kirk, our wedding pastor had to be respectful of his Jewish upbringing. Dan ended up saying part of the service in Hebrew for Kirk's family! We were going to go the cheap route and spend a ton on reception, but we soon realized that the ceremony is the most important part. By removing just one guest (just an acquaintance) from our reception, we were able to budget for the best wedding pastor in the Tri-state area. Dan is amazing! We're so glad we found him!PreacherComforts's reply:
I remember how you went back and forth between big “generic” wedding vs something smaller and more tailored to you. I honestly get bored with liturgy that is too cookie-cutter, and so you let me do my stuff and shine. We really created something special together. Thanks for your trust in me, guys.

Wisdom beyond his years
Daniel has such a calm mannerism, not to mention very handsome. Harold and I are both widowed, and he was so respectful of our previous marriages and brought them into the ceremony as a way of honoring our love continuing. Words cannot describe how breathtakingly gorgeous each word was that he selected. His speaking voice is easy to listen to, also! He attended to every detail that was important to us, so I will be recommending him to all the gals I know who need to get married. Thank you, Daniel!PreacherComforts's reply:
Whitney and Harold, I'm honored to have received such a rating from you two. No lie, just hearing the stories of nursing your first loves during their chemo, radiation, and hospice really touched me. And your story of coming together through your grief reminded me of my own father's journey to finding love after loss. All that said, this was a very special service to me. Thank you for remembering to circle back with a positive review. Again, if there's anything I can help you with, you know where to find me! -
