The Best wedding officiant we could have asked for!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Derek Dube as our wedding officiant for our ceremony at The Commodore on Nagawicka Lake. From our first meeting, Derek's warmth, professionalism, and genuine enthusiasm for his role shone through.

Derek took the time to get to know us as a couple, ensuring that the ceremony was personalized and meaningful. He skillfully balanced humor and sentiment, creating a ceremony that was heartfelt and memorable for us and our guests. His ability to articulate our love story and incorporate our personalities into the vows made the moment incredibly special.

On the day of the wedding, Derek was calm and composed, guiding us through each step with ease. His presence was reassuring, allowing us to focus on the joy of the moment. Many of our guests commented on how beautiful and touching the ceremony was, thanks in large part to Derek's eloquence and delivery.

We are so grateful to Derek for making our wedding day truly unforgettable. If you're looking for an officiant who is not only professional but also deeply committed to making your ceremony unique and special, we highly recommend Derek Dube.

Thank you, Derek, for being an essential part of our special day!
