Professional, fun and easy to work with!

Long story, short: If you have the opportunity, BOOK MARK!! Mark was amazing! From the initial meeting with him, we knew we had found the perfect fit. He was friendly, organized and thorough. He talked us through each part of the ceremony to help us decide what we wanted and took it from there. We could have made it as custom or generic as we wanted. In the end, all we really did was provide the readings we wanted and Mark did the rest!! We ended up wanting to have one super customized (potentially never done before.. :] ) part of the ceremony and really relied on Mark to come through with something really cool -- and boy did he deliver! The day of the wedding, he arrived with plenty of time to review the game plan with us. He was efficient in having our witnesses sign the license and getting all the paperwork taken care of. As for the ceremony itself, he crushed it!! He delivered a perfect balance of romantic and fun, which is exactly what we were looking for. To the crowd, they would have never know prior to the wedding day that we had only interacted with Mark virtually. We received so many compliments throughout the night and even still, 3 weeks later, about the flow of his ceremony, his charisma, his personality and humor. The day of the wedding is so stressful for Brides and Mark took away any stress related to the ceremony part of the day. I'm so thankful we found him. We are so happy with our choice to have Mark perform our ceremony and would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone!!

Scotland Run Ceremony

We had the absolute pleasure of having Mark D as our officiant, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. From the start, Mark was incredibly friendly, attentive, and responsive—he made the whole process feel seamless. His ceremony speech was heartfelt, engaging, and clear, capturing everyone’s attention and emotions beautifully.

Many of our guests went out of their way to compliment Mark and how well he delivered the ceremony. He was so warm and personable that several people assumed we had known him for years! That’s just the kind of genuine presence he brings.

We highly recommend Mark D to anyone looking for a professional, kind, and memorable officiant for their special day.

Easiest pick!

We had seen/interacted with Mark a few years back at a friends wedding when he did theirs and as soon as we got engaged Mark was the first one on our minds to do our day as well. He makes the day so stress free up there in front of everyone. He knows how to keep it light hearted and fun while also bringing light to the beauty and faith and love that a wedding day brings.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
