Griffin was amazing!

Our ceremony truly would not have been the same without Griffin. We knew he was the perfect officiant for us after our first in-person meeting. Griffin was flexible and stayed with us while we rescheduled our wedding twice due to COVID. He made it incredibly easy to plan our perfect wedding incorporating music, readings, and elements of several ceremonies. Griffin structured the flow seamlessly. He was very organized for our rehearsal and made sure the actual ceremony would be flawless. We received numerous compliments on our ceremony and Griffin’s fantastic presence.

Easy, breezy, beautiful!

Working with Griffin was an absolute pleasure and soooooo easy. He took the stress out of our ceremony while adding fun and easy preparation, while keeping us focused on what really is important about a wedding - our commitment to each other! His top-notch service is unmatched and his attention to detail and organization was incredibly valued by us!

Griffin was wonderful! He is great to work with, listens to how you want to make your ceremony, and helps create it! My husband and I received a lot of compliments on how great our ceremony was. We were extremely pleased with our choice.

Perfect for our needs

Working with Griffin was extremely easy and contributed greatly to the ease with which our wedding happened. Despite all three of us being in separate locations for most of the time leading up to the wedding, Griffin was more than able and willing to accommodate and work with us to get everything planned out appropriately. He was very helpful and always quick to respond when we had questions or needed something from him. We never had to worry about the quality or timeliness of his work. He was even able to perform our wedding just across the border in Wisconsin. We highly recommend Griffin to anyone in the twin cities area looking for a wedding officiant. We couldn’t have asked for someone better suited to our needs.

The Marrying Man was wonderful! He will have your back through the whole process. He helped us learn and made us comfortable.

For anyone who wants an accepting, trustworthy, funny, kind and professional person to marry them - he is your guy! We were so happy with our decision.

What a great experience!

Where to begin? From our first meeting with Griffin at Caribou Coffee until our wedding day, it was such a pleasure to work with Griffin. His warm personality and demeanor made us feel so comfortable throughout our whole process! And he always knew how to throw in some humor when any of our conversations began to start sounding and seeming serious. Griffin is amazing!

Griffin Dunlop- The Minnesota Marrying Man

Our whole experience was great from the start. We found him searching online for someone to marry us, not in a church, and kind of a non traditional, hybrid wedding service. We wanted some religious touches, but we also wanted to do our own vows. Griffin was very accommodating. Providing us with multiple examples of services, readings, vows, etc, we were able to compile the best excerpts of what he offered, and incorporate our own vows. I think the most comforting part of working with Griffin is if you have a vision of how you want you wedding service to go, he will do pretty much anything in his power to support you in making that dream a realization.

My husband and I were married by Griffin in September, and we are so grateful we chose him! We live out of state and he was a pleasure to work with throughout the whole process. He created the perfect ceremony for us which pleased our family and friends, and he was so incredibly helpful on the rehearsal day guiding us through the entire proces. We highly recommend him as an officiant!

Griffin , was very helpful with getting to know you as a couple and willing to work with you to make it easy for you and your partner for your wedding. Its your wedding and he is willing to do what you want for your wedding and not try to change it but offer suggestions on what he thinks you could do to make it smooth sailing. I would recommended him for anyone's wedding, Price is very reasonable and he will get back to you on any questions you have in a fast and timely manner. He is very nice and friendly. He's a funny guy and loves to tell stories. I am glad my husband and I picked him to do our wedding everyone had nothing but great things to say about him and we all agreed. :) The cost is reasonable and depending on what service you want depends on price. send him a email and he quote you prices.
