An Exceptional Officiant with Outstanding Kindness and Professionalism

I couldn’t let the opportunity pass to share how amazing Dan is! From the moment we connected, he was warm, professional, and genuinely invested in making our ceremony special. He took the time to get to know us as a couple, listened to our ideas, and provided thoughtful guidance to craft a ceremony that felt personal and meaningful. When our plans unexpectedly changed, Dan was incredibly understanding and kind.

If you’re looking for an officiant who is talented, compassionate, and dedicated to making your day special, I can’t recommend Dan enough! 💕

Dan Kennedy Excellent Officiant

Dan was amazing throughout this wedding process. He met with us several times to talk about various options and styles of ceremonies. He was also always readily available to chat if we needed. All in all, a great guy who made our special day very memorable!! Thanks Dan

Look no further, Dan is the one!

If you're looking for an officiant for your wedding, seriously look no further. Dan was excellent from start to finish. On our initial consultation, he was extremely friendly and welcoming, providing us a sense of relief that we were in the right hands. He answered a lot of our questions and also provided us tips on ensuring a smooth ceremony- even suggestions for things to do. He really took the time to get to know us and I think this is what made him stand out and deserve such high praise. We could immediately tell he was a perfect fit and very experienced. He kept in communication during the whole process and was always available to respond when needed. Our guests though he did a wonderful job and some even questioned how we're related! He also helped us with delivering our marriage application to the county and even followed up with us about it.

Dan- Denise and I thank you so much for your time and we will 100% be sure to recommend to you to all our friends/family in need of an officiant!

Officiant - Dan Kennedy

Dan has been such a wonderful officiant for our big day. He helped guide us on the process and provided suggestions and checked in with us closer to our wedding day. He's very professional and flexible when keeping him informed on scheduled calls. We highly recommend reaching out to him if you need an officiant.

Gracious and responsible

Thank you, Dan, for being my wedding minister. He is a particularly kind and responsible person. He presided with extraordinary solemnity and seriousness. Our family and friends all like he. In the middle of the process, I made a mistake and Dan patiently helped us solve it. Thanks for his help.

Dan is the best

My husband and I worked with Dan on many weddings since we started our wedding videography services in 2018. When we think about our own wedding, Dan is the first person we want to book on our vendor list. We are so grateful that he is the one to marry us! He did great work with professionalism. The whole process went super easy and smooth under his experiences and suggestions. And the awesome thing we just heard, one of our friends booked Dan for her wedding in 2022!

Best choice to hire dan!

Dan was amazing! We hired him for many reasons: he was the only officiant -- among several we had reached out to -- who responded immediately, he was on top of things and very thorough as far as the process of planning and day of ceremony (he's very experienced and has great ideas), he's genuinely kind...and he offers some of the best prices in the Bay Area, especially for the service he provides.

It's important you connect with your officiant, and we felt an immediate connection with Dan.

He checked in periodically. We never worried that he wouldn't do a good job, and we were so right. He was funny, witty and warm during our ceremony. Thank you for being part of our big day, Dan!

He even made sure our marriage license and request for copies got to the county right away, and sent us a tracking number. We gave him a tip as a "thank you."

We highly recommend using him for your wedding!
