About

On WeddingWire since 2019

Why settle for the same clichéd, predictable service everyone else uses? You're unique, and your wedding should be, too. I'll work with you to design the perfect ceremony to match your own individual style and personality. I've performed over 100 weddings over the past two years, and each one has been an amazing experience. I look forward to helping you make your wedding exactly what you want it to be.

I believe that there should be nothing standing in the way of two loving people who want to spend the rest of their lives together. Your ceremony will be afforded the dignity, respect, and open-mindedness it deserves, regardless of your age, race, or sexual orientation.

In my other life, I'm a secondary teacher with both undergraduate and graduate degrees in English. I understand what a difference just the right words make, and I am available to help you to craft vows that convey your love and devotion to one another.

Dave Made Our Wedding Ceremony Truly Unforgettable

Dave was the perfect officiant for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From our very first conversation, it was clear that he truly cares about making each ceremony unique and meaningful. Dave took the time to get to know us as a couple, listening to our story, our values, and our vision for the big day. He seamlessly incorporated those personal touches into the ceremony, creating something that felt deeply reflective of who we are.

Dave’s warm and calming presence made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of the wedding, his professionalism and heartfelt delivery set the perfect tone—not just for us but for all of our guests. So many people came up to us afterward to tell us how beautiful and memorable the ceremony was.

If you’re looking for an officiant who is flexible, non-denominational, and truly dedicated to crafting a ceremony that fits your personality and style, we can’t recommend Dave highly enough. He’s a true gem, and we’re so grateful to have had him as part of our special day.

David was the perfect officiant for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with how beautifully he conducted our ceremony. From the very beginning, he took the time to get to know us as a couple, ensuring that every part of the ceremony felt personal, meaningful, and unique to our love story.

His warm and calming presence made us and our guests feel completely at ease, and his thoughtful words truly captured the emotions of the day. David struck the perfect balance between heartfelt and joyful, creating a ceremony that was as emotional as it was uplifting.

He guided us through the process with such care and professionalism, offering support and advice every step of the way. On the big day, he delivered the ceremony flawlessly, making it a moment we will treasure forever.

If you’re looking for an officiant who is kind, engaging, and genuinely passionate about making your wedding day special, David is the one. We’re so grateful to him for making our ceremony everything we dreamed it would be!

Professional officiation by David Lang

We hired Mr. Lang to be our officiant for our wedding at St. Clements Castle on Aug 9, 2024. That was the best decision. Mr. Lang was very thorough and professional. He made our wedding very special. His presentation was very on point, I must say. I like some humor myself and Mr. Lang certainly knew how to match my humor. If we could do our wedding again, I would hire Mr. Lang again no questions asked. When we renew our vows, it would be an honor to have Mr. Lang renew our vows. I can't speak highly enough how well of a presentation Mr. Lang did for us. He was very responsive and happy to help us with our questions. We had some custom skits incorporated into our ceremony and Mr. Lang was willing to customize the experience for us.
Thank you to Mr. Lang for a wonderful wedding day experience.
