Hannah B. Married on 09/04/2021Great officiant!
Rev Derek was the best! We struggled to find an officiant because we were planning out of state. He was kind, communicative and reliable. I highly recommend him. He was funny and engaging. He also helped keep our rowdy groomsmen in line. Thank you for making our ceremony so special Rev. Derek! -

Hope B. Married on 08/21/2021Amazing Officiant
Rev. Derek was an amazing officiant. My husband and I talked to a few different officiants before we chose Derek to be the officiant for our August wedding and pre-marital education and coaching. Derek is personable, funny, and understanding. He listens, offers advice, and will go above and beyond to make your day exactly how you imagine it. If you hire Rev. Derek you will not regret your decision!

Reverend Kiewat obviously Loves performing weddings. He arrived early to the ceremony, we went through the music cues for my song, piano music, discussed the best musicians set up in the room, and the ceremony order details. He then spent extra time reviewing cues with the couple & the wedding party children to ensure everyone was comfortable with all aspects.The wedding was touching and went beautifully!
I have known Derek for years. Rest assured, knowing that he will not only be early, be professional and take care of everything, but that you will receive a one-of-a-kind ceremony service your guests will rave about! You deserve a ceremony that is meaningful and funny. When it comes to your ceremony, besides saying "I do," hiring Rev. Kiewatt is the best decision you can make!
