Amazing ceremony

Reverend David was perfect!! He created such a beautiful atmosphere for our ceremony. He came to the rehearsal and calmly helped to settle a down this bride’s nerves. He ran the rehearsal and made sure everyone understood their role in the ceremony. He brought so much love and spirituality to the ceremony. Our guests keep remarking how much they loved the way he officiated the ceremony. You can’t go wrong with having Reverend David officiating your wedding ceremony.

Thank you so much Dave!

First of all if you are looking for a wedding photographer or videographer you have found your people. My wife and I are very busy. My wife works full time and I work over 100 hours a week. We started planning our wedding at the Cork Factory Hotel only 8 months out. We found this amazing power couple of photographers by finding a video they did at a previous wedding at the cork factory hotel. Bodnar was so easy to work with and so flexible and understanding. My wife and I were not able to book the complimentary photo shoot before the wedding (due to our schedule not theirs). Jenn and Ben quickly gave us the option to extend the time they would shoot at the wedding. As for the photos… WOW! Absolutely stunning. One of the reasons we chose Bodnar, was looking through their photos. They captured the important moments but also amazing candid shots. My wife and I are not photogenic at all. Ben and Jenn made it seem like our photos weren’t even being taken. They were constantly giving us poses, making us laugh and walking us through everything. They were also very open to suggestions and were asking if we would like to shoot anywhere. We received around 750 amazing photos of our wedding! As for the timeline, they delivered about a week early of the contracted time. Which is crazy because they have a newborn at home and are in the middle of wedding season (July 2021). We will hopefully be able to update the review to give more well-deserved praise once we get the wedding video. But we aren’t worried or stressed. If you have seen any of their work, you will be blown away! To Ben and Jenn. We could not thank you enough! Words cannot express how perfect you made our day.

We love dave!

Dave exceeded our expectations! He is such a nice and down to earth man, everyone who met him loved him. He kept the ceremony light hearted and really made us feel comfortable. We heard so many compliments from our guests about him. All our bridal party really enjoyed him at the rehearsal, and he made it fun for everyone! They all really enjoyed his personality and we could not have been more thrilled with his services. Right when you meet him you feel like you have known him for years, he is a great guy!

Pastor Dave gave us the most amazing ceremony!

Dennis and I want to take the time to thank you for the most perfect ceremony. Dave made everything easy from our first interaction to our wedding day. Dave made a point to prepare our ceremony exactly the way we wanted it. We were so impressed at how professional and natural he is in front of a crowd. Our guests were so impressed. We were so blessed to have Dave officiate us on our big day! Thank you, thank you, thank you for the most memorable and most perfect day.

Great experience!

Dave was so great to work with and came highly recommended by our wedding planner. He was very passionate and charismatic and really drew the crowd in. From the start we knew he was perfect for our big day and was on the same page as us. He made sure to make the day about us and wanted to incorporate whatever we wished into the ceremony. All our guests loved it as well.

Dave recently officiated a wedding at Historic Ashland, where I work. He has amazing energy and passion! The ceremony was one of the most beautiful we have had at the venue this season and all of the guests were smiling ear to ear the entire time. I will recommend Dave to all of my clients in need of his services. Thank you!

Rev. Dave was an absolutely incredible officiant for our wedding. We really couldn't have chosen a better person for the job. He was very responsive to my first email and promptly answered any and all of my questions. He met with my husband and I a few months before the ceremony so we could get to know him and create a basic outline for the ceremony. He is so easy to talk to and made the entire process of planning the ceremony so easy. My husband and I weren't entirely sure of what type of ceremony we wanted, but after talking with Dave he helped us create the perfect ceremony. Throughout the reception and even weeks afterwards, so many people told me how much they enjoyed the ceremony because Dave made it so captivating, relatable and enjoyable. He was always on time, accommodated us for the rehearsal time and made every minute of the day perfect for my husband and I. He made us feel at ease on a day that is naturally filled with nerves and excitement. Dave, thank you so much for being apart of our day and making it so special. We would recommend Dave to any and every couple who is getting married!

I am the owner of Harmony Hall Estate and Karen’s Catering, LLC., over the past 31 years I have had the honor of helping thousands of couples make their wedding day dreams come true. Selecting the vendors for our wedding day was no easy task! I have worked with some of the best wedding vendors in Central PA and a few that are not so good. So when it came time for John and I to plan our own wedding we had a long list of vendors to consider. Selecting our officiate was one of the most important decisions we had to make. Fortunately for us I have worked with Pastor Dave many times over the past few years. His ability to make each and every wedding ceremony unique and special always amazed me. His demeanor and his presentation always gave me the impression that he was a man that truly believed and loved the message he was sharing and that he knew each and every couple for years. Working with him on a personal level was everything I thought it would be and more! Pastor Dave was open, honest, funny and certainly captured the essence of our relationship. HIs guidance and assurance during the process made both of us feel at ease, as if we were talking to an old friend. I am still receiving compliments about our ceremony! I can’t tell you how many of our guest told us that it was the most personal, touching, inspirational and by far the very best wedding ceremony they had ever attended including their own. Wow.. that says it all. We totally agree! We can’t stop watching our wedding ceremony video! Thank you Pastor Dave for making our wedding day dreams come true. Karen & John

Rev. Dave was wonderful at our rehearsal and wedding! We couldn’t have chosen anyone better to officiate our wedding! He was funny, engaging and charming! He meets with you to go over every detail of the wedding ceremony months before so you are aware of everything! He was available by email and phone anytime and was very responsive! He took all of our suggestions and ideas and helped us put together a great ceremony with vowels we chose. He even allowed us to go over the rehearsal more than once to make sure everyone was comfortable! He made the nerves of the day go away with ease and our ceremony turned out perfect! I can’t thank Dave enough and I’d recommend him to any couple!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I just love it when one of my couples tells me that Dave is their officiant. He is so upbeat and positive. His ceremonies are always heartfelt and he's great at throwing a little humor in. He seems to really get to know a couple and talks about them during the service. I highly recommend David as an officiant for your event.
