Great Officiant Experience

I am so happy with our choice to have Daniel Pincus as our wedding officiant. He was very professional and caring. I was asked by him to fill out a questionnaire. I had no idea he was going to use my scriptures and words during the ceremony.

I was so pleased that he incorporated my words and views as apart of the ceremony. Daniel Pincus made the whole ceremony special by adding his touch with chanting. My family and guess was all applaud with such a neat experience!

Thanks to Clinton's cousin for sharing their wedding ceremony with us to experience Daniel Pincus.

I would highly recommend Daniel Pincus to add flavor for any event!

Sincerely,

Delores Chalmers

Really Added to our Ceremony!

Cantor Pincus was a pleasure to work with for our wedding. He was flexible and open when we asked if he would co-officiate with a childhood friend, and worked with us to ensure we were confident and comfortable with the ceremony. Leading up to the wedding, we had a few calls with him so that he could get to know us as a couple, as well as our officiant. We are so appreciative of the time he took to work with us to customize our ceremony. The feedback from our guests was that our ceremony was both fun and meaningful, and Cantor Pincus had a great deal to do with that - he helped set the tone even before our ceremony by bringing his drum to lead us in singing before our Ketubah signing. We loved working with him and having him be a part of our day!

Excellent experience!

Working with Cantor Pincus was such a joy! We were honoured to have him marry us. We first came across his profile while searching for an officiant who could perform a Jewish ceremony for us. Cantor Pincus had wonderful reviews and upon our first meeting with him, we immediately knew that he was the right fit for us! We wanted a traditional Jewish ceremony and Cantor Pincus delivered above and beyond. He was so generous with his time and really ensured that our needs were met. We had a few meetings with him prior to our wedding and he always left us reflecting on the wisdom and Jewish teachings that he shared with us. We were absolutely delighted when Cantor Pincus brought a drum to our Ketubah signing ceremony. He made it so special for us and our families, celebrating us with his beautiful voice and songs! We were not expecting such a wonderful Ketubah signing experience and it is something that we will cherish and remember for the rest of our lives. The wedding ceremony was incredibly touching. Cantor Pincus delivered a heartfelt speech, in which he incorporated small details about us as individuals and as a couple. It felt so touching to know that Cantor Pincus took the time to read our questionnaire answers to ensure that our ceremony was personal and intimate. We truly felt so comfortable to be married by such a wonderful, kind, and wise individual. We felt honoured that after the ceremony, Cantor Pincus took the time to introduce himself to all our guests, including our families. Our wedding was made so special by Cantor Pincus. We are so grateful, and we hope that he will be a part of many other joyous occasions as we grow our family!

Thank you Cantor Pincus!

Cantor Pincus officiated our wedding on August 6th. We had a small Jewish wedding with family in the upstairs of a restaurant. Cantor Pincus made our wedding ceremony feel special and went above and beyond!

Prior to the wedding, he had a couple Zoom meetings with us to get to know us. He also sent us a questionnaire, and he used our answers for this questionnaire in the ceremony, which gave the ceremony a nice, personalized touch.

At the ceremony, he entertained our guests, and sang some Hebrew songs. He has an incredible voice! He also played the drums and blew the shofar.

Our guests were so impressed by Cantor Pincus, and we received SO many compliments. Thank you Cantor Pincus, for helping to make our wedding a day that we will never forget! :)

Cantor Daniel Pincus the officiant

Cantor Daniel Pincus officiated our wedding this past July 4th weekend. He is a nice, caring person who wants to get to know the individuals who he will be marrying. We did several meetings via zoom to get to know each other and he also requested that we each fill out a questionnaire separately so he could learn about us individually. He reminded us what was needed at the chuppah which was a kiddush cup and the breaking the glass item. He was quite punctual at our wedding and our attendees complimented him on the service and said his singing voice was phenomenal. I would recommend him highly.

Amazing officiant

I was on goggle looking for a officiant and I came across Cantor Daniel. I'm glad I did I think was great so many officiant told me no they couldn't marry us he was the only one that said yes. He made sure my ceremony date match with his available date. If you looking for a officiant to do a prison or jail wedding hire Cantor Daniel.

Unforgettable Elopement

Daniel made our elopement a very special moment we will never forget. We first met with him via Zoom and got to know each other, he was very interested and open and was always ready to answer our questions. We met Daniel in person at the day of our elopement and it immediately felt like he was not just an officiant but a person we have known before. He made our elopement very special and also made us laugh and dance during our ceremony! We would highly recommend Daniel and would always book him again! Thank you Daniel!

Top wedding officiant

Daniel officiated our wedding in October 2022. Our experience with Daniel was truly exceptional. He is kind, trustworthy, responsive, reliable, & professional. His attention to detail made our customized Catholic/Jewish ceremony absolutely perfect. Daniel took the time to get to know us on a personal and spiritual level; he listened to our needs and executed the ceremony beautifully in three different languages (Spanish, English & Hebrew). Everyone loved the special touches & personal details he added to our wedding. He absolutely surpassed our expectations, we are forever grateful.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
