Daniel was amazing to work with for our wedding and I absolutely loved working with him. He listened to what we wanted and made sure I had the two ceremonies that I wanted in our ceremony (the 13 gold coins and the lasso ceremony for Mexican traditions.) He had the best blessing and made it so personal for us. Right before the ceremony we lost 3 of the coins but Daniel was so professional that most guests didn't realize we had only 10 coins. We ended up finding the other 3 in the bottom of the bag they were in. He spent several hours with us in person going over what we wanted, in e-mails to ensure we had the right timeline of events, and right before the ceremony. He made sure it was about us and even though the trolley was late for the venue, he made sure we started on time still. He saw me cry a little before the ceremony when I had my "Oh my gosh I'm getting married moment" holding my dad's hand and he took our hands and prayed with us. He was such pleasure to work with and one of my favorite things is the money we "paid" him goes to a scholarship that supports veterans and he does not pay himself. This was very special to us as my dad and husband are both veterans.

Daniel is willing to make each ceremony unique to fit his clients... he didn't stick with a cookie cutter mold. All of our input was incorporated into the ceremony and it was kept to the time limits we requested.

Also, the money you pay is donated to charity which is something my husband and I really respected.

My husband and I were looking for a non-denominational officiant for our wedding and came across Daniel. We met with him and discussed a ceremony timeline and script. He seemed to be willing to adapt and incorporate anything in the script that we suggested. He was very easy to get along with and met the basic criteria for an officiant. However, we were a bit disappointed when we discovered he had forgotten about our rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding! He arrived late and performed a quick rehearsal with our wedding party. All went according to plan and he arrived on time to our wedding the next day. All went fine there as well, but at times I felt he relied on his script very heavily for being so experienced. Overall, our expectations were met and we are officially and legally married. That's all that matters in the end!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
