Patrick Brooks is outstanding!

We chose Patrick after researching SLO officiants. We did a few phone interviews before we met him in-person (for the first time) two days prior to our wedding. From our first call, we knew Patrick was the right person for the job. He exudes excitement, passion, and happiness. He had a lot of thoughtful questions and happily addressed all of our questions. When we met him, we arrived with our electric car almost empty (we drove from the Northern CA) and Patrick let us use his personal e-charger for free to add miles to our car. He's that type of guy. He also made delicious, fresh cocktails for us at his distillery in Tin City (we also met his awesome dog, Penny). Again, for free. And then gave us a bottle of an award winning alcoholic beverage that he made. Also, for free. The day of the wedding, he crushed it. He delivered his beautiful, thoughfully curated words, adding special touches that were tailored to our wedding. He stayed after to socialize with us, take photos, and give us the transcript to his speech. Patrick is great officiant, and even better, a fantastic human. This world needs more Patricks. Patrick, we wish you the best of luck at your wedding to Quinn!

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect officiant

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect officiant for our Santa Barbara beach ceremony than Patrick. From the moment we first met him, it was clear he was dedicated to making our day special. His ability to personalize the ceremony was unparalleled; he effortlessly weaved our story into the words he spoke, making it not just a ceremony but a heartfelt reflection of our journey together. Throughout the ceremony, guests were moved by his sincerity and warmth. Several even asked us how long we had known him, convinced he must have been a longtime friend due to the genuine way he spoke about us and our relationship. His words were not just beautiful, but they resonated with everyone present, making our wedding feel intimate and personal. Patrick truly went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. His professionalism, coupled with his ability to connect with us and our guests on such a personal level, is something we will always cherish. We cannot thank him enough for making our wedding ceremony everything we dreamed it would be and more. If you're looking for an officiant who will bring genuine warmth, personalized touches, and a heartfelt message to your special day, look no further than Patrick. He is simply the best.

Patrick is amazing! He was our officiant and our specialized drink supplier, both of which turned out amazing! He made the ceremony so special to us and he’s all around such a lovable guy with amazing values and a good heart. Can’t go wrong with him!
