About

Formerly Finger Weddings

I am a Pastor and Worship Leader and have served two churches over the past 20 years, one in San Francisco for fifteen and one in Menlo Park for five. I have officiated over 50 weddings and sang/played in almost that many as well.

I help couples design their wedding ceremony by guiding them through the most fundamental parts, as well as suggest additional components that help make it personal and meaningful. I also provide a guidebook for their own consideration, and once confirmed, I can lead the rehearsal prior to the ceremony should they so desire and then officiate the wedding itself. I am able to provide the music as well (singing and acoustic guitar), if needed, and can provide direction as to how best to acquire premarital counseling and preparation.

Amazing Experience - Highly Recommend

Jeff was a wonderful person to work with, he was very responsive, provided guidance on how the ceremony would be ran. He also helped us in picking the format plus was very accommodating to any requests we had. I would highly recommend him and every one who attended our wedding told us how beautiful the ceremony was. We were so honored to celebrate our special day with Jeff Finger.

Jeff was a special part of our wedding and it was an amazing night! Every single person we talked to asked about him and was so impressed by him. They all thought that he must have known us for a long time because he made it seem so personal and special. We would highly recommend him!!!

Jeff was absolutly amazing. My husband and I got married on April 9, 2016. Jeff was the best part of our wedding. He was so easy to get ahold of brought the entire planning process and made it completely stress free. Our ceremony was so special of felt like someone we had known our whole lives was marrying us. After our ceremony all of our guests were asking where we found him because he was so great. I would recommend him to anyone because he is the best.

Jeff Finger provided his musical talent for my wedding prior to his focused pursuit as a vendor. My selection and request was based upon my first hand experience of his passion and talent. We had selected music and requested his partnership with another trusted musician with a piece that was not traditional, or common. Due to location, communication was primarily by phone or email and preparation between the musicians was limited to the rehearsal dinner. We were exceedingly pleased with his performance and contribution to such an important day. working with Jeff was the easiest part of planning and one of the most enjoyed because Jeff is very professional, collaborative, and talented.

We have been friends with Jeff for more than 15 years. We met him as our pastor at a community church in San Francisco. Jeff is a gifted pastor, communicator, musician and singer. We watch the video of our wedding ceremony from time to time and are reminded just how lucky we were to have Jeff officiate. He combined the perfect blend of poise, humor, personal and faith to engage us and our family and friends throughout the ceremony. We asked Jeff to perform King of Glory by Third Day prior to the ceremony. We had to figure out a way to bring his musical talents into the moment. Our church recently hired a new music director and to this day Jeff still sets the standard on music. I shared with my wife that the new hire "couldn't possibly be as good as Jeff." Though we left the bay area ten years ago we still speak with Jeff and value him as a friend. So we are biased when I say run, don't walk to work with him.

Actual wedding date was 8/18/2001 (not allowed by this app). Jeff Finger is a conscientious professional who, in musical terms, "made" our special day. The choice of music, musicians and instruments to fit both our ceremony, reception venue and overall atmosphere (reception was a mid-day brunch) was flawless. We will always cherish Jeff's participation and contribution to our wedding.

Jeff finger did an amazing job officiating our wedding! Our service was absolutely perfect in large part to the way Jeff led it. He worked with us on the structuring of the service so that we were comfortable and confident. In the end we were absolutely thrilled with how our wedding came off and can't recommend jeff Finger highly enough!

I was very skeptical in the beginning to find a wedding officiant on-line. However, it turned out to be a greater blessing than I ever thought possible. I am a firm believer that things happen for a reason, Jeff Finger made a huge impact on our whole experience and his professionalism was outstanding! Our wedding guests continued to give us feedback on how they really enjoyed what Jeff brought to them, he included our guest as part of thd wedding allowing them to take an oath to be there for Gary and I. We couldn't have asked for more on our special day, it was all God!! Sending us the right people at the right time. Jeff, you truly are heaven sent and we appreciate from the bottom of our hearts what you have done for us, from start to finish you were there for us. Right down to helping us write our vows. You will always have a special place in our hearts. Thank you for being a part of our wedding.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
