Best of the best
We knew we wanted to work with Peadar from the first moment we heard him speak in one of the videos on his website. We immediately reached out and decided we wanted to work it out however possible to work with Peadar. From our first conversation both Peadar and his lovely wife Margarita made us feel so special, important, understood and supported. Their approach to each ceremony is so special and unique, you are truly getting your own individual experience. Peadar took the time to get to know each of us as individuals as well as together as a couple. We worked together to build a ceremony that completely reflected our love and partnership. The day of was the hottest possible day at 102 degrees and we still wouldn't have changed a thing. Our ceremony was a dream and we will cherish that memory for the rest of our lives. We cannot recommend Peadar and Margarita more, in them you are not just getting an officiant, but a new member of your community who join and support you as you start this next most exciting chapter. -

Peadar was such a wonderful officiant for our special day. He truly got to know us as a couple and made the ceremony extremely personal. He always took notes during our meetings and it was reflected throughout his words during the ceremony. All of our guests commented following the ceremony how genuine the ceremony was and noted it was one most thoughtful ceremonies as it showed our true love for one another. We cannot thank Peadar enough for all that he did to make our ceremony such a special event for us -- he really made sure that it reflected and showed the love we have for one another. He stayed after the ceremony to speak with our guests, which made a lasting impression on all those that he spoke with and because of that, we cannot recommend Peadar enough! He and his wife Margarita are fantastic people and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an incredibly genuine officiant who will highlight the love you have for one another on your wedding day. -

Paedar was a wonderful officiant for our wedding ceremony, and throughout the entire planning process. First of all, he is genuinely passionate about his work. He made our marriage feel like a truly special event from the moment we first talked to him. He carried that passion and enthusiasm through the ceremony on our wedding day. He and his wife were extremely professional and easy to communicate with. They helped us plan our vows and coordinate the marriage license requirements, all while maintaining an atmosphere that focused on love and the special moment we shared together. We would 100% recommend Paedar to all future couples. -

My husband and I couldn't have imagined a more perfect fit for our officiant. Peadar made our ceremony unique and special to us. Our friends and family could not stop raving about him during our cocktail hour- he was a huge hit at our wedding and we are thankful we were able to work with such a special soul -

Best. Day. Ever. Thanks to Rev. Peadar Dalton
Our wedding day 5.4.19 was the absolute best day possible thanks to Rev. Peadar Dalton and his wife Margarita. They were so helpful throughout the entire wedding process and made us feel at ease about it all. Rev. Peadar took the time to get to know us and made our day so special and personalized the entire ceremony. We had several guests mention they adored his words and made it that much more memorable for all involved. We can't thank them enough! Rev. Peadar Dalton went above and beyond to make our wedding everything we wanted and more! We highly recommend! -

Peadar is more than an efficient, but is someone who truly gets to know his couples and is invested in your long-term relationship! Peadar would gradually check in with us during the planning process and called us the day of to ease our nerves! He did a wonderful job with our ceremony, making each and every guest feel welcomed and a part of it. -

Peadar is an amazingly authentic and kindhearted person who really puts his heart into his officiant role.
He really took the time to get to know my wife and I - we met several times before the wedding day, and spoke several times over the phone. By the time of the ceremony, we felt a close connection to Peadar that really made the ceremony stand out to us and especially to our guests.
Peadar offers great practical and thoughtful advice on every detail of the ceremony, including a huge collection of really powerful excerpts and quotes for readings. While he tailors the ceremony to the couple, he also infuses everything with his own tremendous personality and warmth.
Over-all, Peadar and his wife Margarita made our ceremony, and even the rehearsal & rehearsal dinner, absolutely unforgettable.
Hugely recommended! -

Peadar and Margarita are the dream team!
We met Peadar since he was one of our officiant options for our micro wedding at Calistoga Ranch. I couldn't tell from reviews and websites who to pick but after hearing how much people love Peadar (and the fact that my future hubby actually had a slight preference for him and he usually has no opinions on these things), we decided to go with him even though my instinct is to typically hire the female options! I'm so glad that Russ and I picked Your Ceremony Matters because I can't imagine our big day without Peadar and Margarita now.
Peadar is so amazing, he's basically like family to us now. He had amazing ceremony reading options and was super flexible in letting us have more than just one when we couldn't decide. He also encouraged us to have our family participate, which was really great.
We also didn't have a pre-ceremony consult as part of our package but Peadar made sure to talk with us in advance over the phone (FaceTime, even!) so that we could get to know each other and on the day of, I felt like we already knew him, which really meant a lot!
Peadar just called us to check-in post nuptials and I can't wait for our yearly check ins with him!
I highly recommend Peadar and Margarita with Your Ceremony Matters - you definitely won't regret it! I'd do it all over if I could and would definitely ask Peadar back if we renew vows, etc. I like Peadar -

I can't even begin to describe how special Peadar and Margarita made our wedding ceremony. It was hands down the most special and moving day of our lives. They took the time to get to know my husband and I as well as our families/guests to ensure everyone felt part of the union of our marriage. He acknowledged family members, our parents, and guests who had traveled far distances to celebrate with us. We were laughing, crying tears or joy and just simply consumed with the incredible words Peadar shared throughout the entire ceremony. All of our guests were in complete awe about how special our ceremony and could not stop asking how we found Peadar. If you want to remember your wedding ceremony forever and have the best/most moving day of your life, we highly recommend working with Peadar and Margarita. They are absolutely incredible at what they do and I know we will have a bond with them forever. -

Lauren Sent on 08/22/2018Reverand Peadar Dalton officiated our wedding at Auberge du Soleil in August 2018. He and his wife Margarita are absolutely wonderful to work with and exceeded all of our expectations. Paedar took the time to get to know us as a couple and crafted a beautiful ceremony that was truly reflective of our relationship and values. He brought in elements that made everyone feel as if they shared the experience with us, rather than just witnessing it. We had so many guests tell us after the wedding that is was the most touching ceremony they have ever attended and that they felt that they were very much a part of it. We couldn't have been happier. Thank you so much, Peadar and Margarita, for giving us such a beautiful start to our lives together as husband and wife.

Krista Sent on 07/31/2018Doug and I got married June 2018 and we never in a million years thought that we would find life-long friends in our wedding officiant, but we were wrong! Peadar and Margarita are two of the kindest human beings and truly take the time to get to know their couples before the big day. Peadar incorporated a lot of personal anecdotes that we had shared throughout the course of getting to know us, which made the ceremony feel as though a good friend was marrying us. Our guests had great feedback as well - they loved the ceremony!

Brooke Sent on 11/07/2018Peadar is simply the best
After being a wedding planner in Wine Country for over 100 weddings, I left the area, but I returned 5 years later to get married myself. When it came to officiants, there was only one person I wanted to marry us, and that was Peadar. In all the wedding ceremonies he officiated with me over the years, he made every one unique. He takes the time to learn about every couple and what is important to them, and he brings a special spirit to the day. He combines the prepared vows and traditions with a whimsical air that lets the ceremony be organic. He was already booked on the day we picked and it was so important to us to have Paedar, that we changed the start time of our wedding so that he could officiate after his other wedding was over. Our wedding ceremony was special and uniquely “us”, and I feel so lucky to have been able to work with Peadar on my own wedding. -
Alyssa Sent on 07/14/2018Rev. Peadar Dalton officiated our wedding at Tyge William Cellars in Sonoma, CA on May 12, 2018. My husband and I could not have asked for a better ceremony. Everything was very thoughtful, sweet, and well done. We appreciate all the time and effort that was put into our ceremony and wedding. It truly was the perfect day and we are so blessed. Rev. Peadar Dalton did an excellent job and we received many compliments on the ceremony. Our family and friends all agreed that it was one of the best they have seen. We highly recommend Rev. Peadar Dalton. It was great to get to know him and have him be a major part of our wedding.
Thanks,
Mr. and Mrs. Ibarra -

Peadar Dalton is the best that wine country has to offer. I’ve been in the wedding industry for 18 years and have worked with many different officiants over the years. That’s how I know how special Peadar is!! He really cares about his couples and is kind, patient and always is a comforting voice and presence. I was so honored to have him officiant my wedding recently. Our guests said it was the best ceremony they had ever heard. And it really was perfect. I couldn’t ask for anything different. I’m so happy that Peadar will always be a big part of our love story. Thank you for marrying us!! -
