Dana Lawson helped to make our wedding day the most touching and beautiful day we could have ever dreamed. She worked closely with us, making sure that everything we were hoping for would happen with our wedding and thanks to Dana it did, and then some. She is kind and open to any ideas. She is responsive and does her research. One of the most moving parts of our ceremony came from the beautiful verses about nature and trees that Dana spoke of, which were a large part of the theme of our wedding. Beyond giving us the most magical of ceremonies, she checked back in with us sometime after our wedding, to see how we were and gave a personal touch that endeared her to us even more. She is the real deal and the care, time and energy she gave to our ceremony brought us the most special of all days. I highly recommend Dana Lawson to all who wish for their wedding day to be the most memorable of all days. Thank you so very much Dana!!!

I highly recommend Dana as an officiant for your wedding! She came recommended from the wedding venue and after reading reviews online and speaking with her, I knew I wanted to have her officiate my wedding. It was important to us to have an officiant who could combine elements of a nontraditional wedding and traditional wedding, along with religious and spiritual elements, and Dana did just that. She listened to us and provided support and guidance along the way. She tailored the wedding to capture both our personalities and the mood that we were going for on the day of. I felt good knowing that I didn't have to worry about the flow of the wedding, as she had great recommendations on how things should go the day of. Working with Dana was such a breeze and made for a great wedding day! I couldn't have asked for a better officiant! Thank you Dana!

Dana did a fabulous job crafting our perfect wedding ceremony! Our whole ceremony was extremely personal, touching, and unique to us! I did not want to include some of the traditional elements of a wedding ceremony and Dana did a great job of making sure the ceremony was still an appropriate length and not too short - it was actually perfect! My favorite part of our ceremony was our tree planting union which we decided to add on becasue we omitted readings and writing our own vows. Dana did such a beautiful job creating a very unique and meaningful ceremony that told our story. I recieved many, many compliments about how professional and beautiful our ceremony was. I would highly recommend Dana for any life celebration! Thank you Dana!

Dana is great! She made my day special! I had tons of questions before and she patiently answered one by one. It is easy to see that Dana loves what she does, and that love and happiness she brought in to the ceremony was contagious.
She did above and beyond my expectations
I absolutely would recommend her.
Thank you for making our day even more special Dana!

We're so happy we chose Dana as our officiant. Every step of the way we felt guided and supported by her to create a beautiful ceremony that fit us perfectly. I loved that she had us fill out a questionnaire and then show each other. She wrote a draft which we then could review and make small edits too. She suggested readings too. All of it felt very smooth and made me feel confident going into the wedding. And on the actual day it was perfect, just the right amount of touching, emotional and joyful. Everyone loved it, especially us!

From our first phone call with Dana, my husband and I knew she would be the one to marry us. She was so upbeat and personable on the phone, genuinely interested in our love story. We spent about an hour on the phone talking with her, just going over how we met, how long we’ve been dating, what type of ceremony we wanted, how our lives are structured, our relationship with our families, etc. The truth is, the time just flew by because she genuinely cared, and it was like talking to an old friend. Prior to meeting Dana, we met with a few other officiants who were very nice and we easily could have went with one of them and been done with it, but I’m glad we kept looking and met Dana. Once we hung up the phone after our first conversation, we knew we were done. We emailed her the next day and met with Dana soon after at Panera to talk again and put a face to the voice. It was a great meeting and we quickly booked her that day. What set Dana apart was that we knew she would make sure that everything was taken care of the way that we envisioned it. She wrote a beautiful ceremony for us, which we worked on together the month of the wedding. On the day of, Dana came and found us the moment she arrived at our venue, which was nice and early. My husband and I both took a deep breath, we knew she had everything under control. She was so calm and reassuring, in that moment, I can’t tell you how glad I was that we chose her.

Dana nailed it! Dana speaks so beautifully, it’s no surprise our ceremony was perfect. All of our guests came up to us afterwards to tell us how beautiful it was and how much they enjoyed Dana.

Here’s my advice to anyone planning a wedding: Choose the vendors that give you peace of mind, the ones that you know will deliver for you on your big day. For my husband and I, that was Dana Lawson. Dana was a such a delight to work with before our big day and so incredibly warm and loving at our wedding. She was a true professional, a master of her craft. I would recommend Dana to anyone looking for an officiant.

We are so glad that we used Dana Lawson as our celebrant wedding officiant! The ceremony was absolutely beautiful, and she captured every part of our story and relationship so perfectly. Dana really took the time to get to know us as a couple, and all of our guests were touched by the warmth and genuine feel of our wedding ceremony. Dana was so easy to work with and made the process of planning our wedding enjoyable and stress free. I am so happy with our decision, and I highly recommend Dana!

There were people who came to our wedding who swore to me they would not cry. Dana proved them wrong. Dana worked with us extensively to create a wedding ceremony that captured what we were looking for: personal, intimate, and meaningful. We went back and forth with numerous drafts where Dana offered lots of suggestions and ideas to get us where we wanted to be. We saw Dana at someone else's wedding and knew we wanted her to marry us because of the feeling and environment she created, and she did exactly the same for us.

Dana wrote beautiful vows for my husband and I. I've known Dana for a long time and she is so down to earth and has a great spirit! I highly recommend having her as your officiant!

Dana handled everything with top professionalism and care. Was very responsive on email, wrote a beautiful ceremony that really captured us as a couple, and took my request to start and finish the ceremony at a specific time for my astronomy chart very seriously ;) and she hit the timing perfectly! Most importantly, she embued the ceremony with such warmth and love, I felt she actually married us with her spirit, not her words. That was unexpected, and special beyond words. I would recommend any couple that wants to married by the higher spirit should choose Dana. As a Catholic, I've never met a priest who could do better ;)
