    Just what every wedding needs

    I am convinced Dennis was the main reason our wedding day was as amazing as it was. From the start, Dennis allowed my husband and I to be ourselves and put whatever piece of each other we wanted in our wedding. He was open to all ideas and had great feedback about timing of things and where certain parts of the ceremony would work best given his tremendous previous experience in this field. I cannot tell you the amount of compliments we received from family and friends praising Dennis and his speech during the ceremony. He somehow captured our relationship to a T and managed to allow those celebrating with us to feel included in the words he was saying. We also asked Dennis to say “grace” prior to eating dinner and that was a hit all in its own!!! Short, sweet, comical, extremely relevant to who we are as a couple and our family, and set the tone for a down right boot scootin good time for the remainder of the evening. I am grateful I hired a videographer that day so we can relive the perfect words of Dennis for the rest of time. Hire hire hire!!!!

    Life long friendship

    I’ve known Dennis for 15 years, and just when I thought I had heard it all - I hadn’t. Dennis had the most incredible heartfelt ceremony for my wife and I and I know I can speak for her when I say we’re both incredibly grateful for Dennis. Guests at the wedding were thoroughly impressed with his delivery, timing, and the sincerity of his message. Can’t recommend him enough!

    You will not regret hiring Dennis!

    Best officiant ever! Professional yet personable, and he got the vibe of our ceremony just right. Everything was perfect! Hurry and book him, he is in great demand, I think we were just were lucky to get him due to some COVID cancellations.

    Simply the Best

    Dennis ensured our ceremony went smoothly and added just the right amounts of humor and love to our ceremony script. We were able to review our ceremony script prior to our wedding and Dennis was all ears for any updates we wanted to make. We will always always always recommend Dennis for all wedding officiant needs!!

    The Very Best!

    We lucked out with having to postpone our 2020 wedding. We wanted to hire Dennis per a recommendation but he was booked for our Oct. 2020 date. When we reschedule to 2021, he was available and could not have been more welcoming and helpful.

    In December 2020, we decided we wanted to elope in Annapolis, just the 2 of us. Dennis was so helpful with the entire process. He was flexibly and quick to respond, and wrote us a beautiful ceremony for our special day. He was available to answer any and all of our questions, and help us plan still for our Oct 2021 wedding. Thank you for everything you did and for being such a great addition to our special day!

    Best Officiant Ever!

    Highly recommend choosing Dennis if you're looking for a kind, caring, and professional officiant. Dennis was so quick to answer any questions that we had. He took all the things my husband and I said about one another and made it into a beautiful speech during the ceremony. I could tell that he put a lot of time and effort into making the ceremony special for us. I truly cannot say enough good things about Dennis.

    Amazing officiant !

    Using Dennis as our officiant for our wedding was such a great decision! He was extremely responsive and helpful in creating the perfect ceremony script for our day. Not only is Dennis extremely well spoken, but he ensured that our ceremony was personal and light hearted. Many guests of the wedding asked where we found our officiant because they said it was one of the best ceremonies they had seen! After the wedding was over , Dennis walked us through the process of getting our license and making sure that we understood the process. If you are considering hiring Dennis you won’t be disappointed !

    Dennis Is Amazing

    We had the privilege of Dennis officiating our wedding 9/10/21 at the MD Zoo. Dennis was super professional and fun at the same time. We wanted a light beat, sermon and Dennis really helped us with suggestions on how to make that happen. It was exactly what we wished for. I highly recommend Dennis.

    06/26/21 Marks Wedding

    My husband and I had gone to a friends wedding where Dennis Thomas was the officiant, and he was a natural talent! We reached out to him to see if he was available on our wedding date and all roads aligned. Dennis took the time to get together and with my husband and I and actually get to know us and our love story, it wasn’t untill then he wrote the most personal, intimate, romantic, yet funny script to our ceremony and Sent it to us to allow for any changes we wanted (which were none)! dennis is charming and nothing but professional to work with. He engaged our guest and provided us with a ceremony we couldn’t have written better ourselves. It was a pleasure having you officiate our wedding, when it’s time to renewal our vowels you will be hearing from us !!! Thank you again !

    Friendly!!

    I called him to see if he was available for my wedding, and unfortunately he was already booked. But, instead of hanging up, he directed me to a friend that he knows that officiates weddings as well. Super friendly and nice!

    Look no further! Highly recommend!

    Let me first start by saying Dennis is one of the most down to earth, easy going people I have ever met. Personally we did not want a traditional pastor or priest. We were looking for a modern short ceremony structure that included both some tear jerking moments and some laughter. Dennis brought exactly that and more. Dennis was so easy to work with. He met with us, got to know us a little bit, asked us questions and poof just curated the most perfect ceremony structure. He also showed up ON TIME to our rehearsal dinner and guided everyone through a quick run through with ease. Some comments I received from wedding guests were that Dennis spoke in such a clear, eloquent manner. He grabbed your attention and made you feel like you were immediately being spoken to as a friend. He has a way of making a connection with the guests right off the bat. There wasn't a dry eye during our ceremony and there were also many laughs. I would highly recommend Dennis to any couple getting married!

    Perfect Choice

    Dennis was the perfect choice for us! He took the time to get to know us, our story, and what we wanted in our wedding vows. He was collaborative, flexible (with us having to change plans due to COVID), and delivered the perfect balance of levity and seriousness that we wanted. He was professional, kind, and responsive during the entire planning process. We received several compliments from guests, as well, regarding Dennis and our ceremony. Highly recommend!

    Soper Wedding

    Dennis was amazing from the beginning to the end! I couldn't have picked a more professional, genuine, and caring person to marry us. He pays attention to small detail and helps put you at ease! We're so lucky to have Dennis in our lives as not only a friend, but family. He's an amazing person inside and out and I'm so very thankful for him!

    Don't think twice, just book Dennis!

    Dennis married us on August 29, 2020! He stuck it out with us after having to postpone from March 21, 2020 and having to change venues 3 different times due to COVID. He didn't complain once and was happy to do anything to make our day happen and to make it special, which he certainly did! He wrote the script for our ceremony and personalized it to us perfectly. I would highly recommend Dennis!!

    What an eloquent and handsome officiant! Who wouldn't want this face in the back of all of your ceremony pictures :) His poise, confidence, and true passion for helping others shines through to deliver a meaningful and powerful message of love on your big day. And did I mention he's handsome ..... ;)

    Look no further!

    If you’re looking to book an officiant for your big day- your search should end right here! As soon as I sent an inquiry to Dennis, we had a phone call set up; as soon as our phone call was complete, I venmo’d him the down payment because I knew he was perfect for our day! Dennis was in touch many times before the wedding and rehearsal (even when he got married AND was on his honeymoon a week or so before our day). He showed up to our rehearsal early, had everyone in order very quickly, and let us test out different orders of events, we left the rehearsal KNOWING we booked the perfect officiant. Our day was 11/16/19; it was 34 degrees and windy but the length of our ceremony was short, sweet, and perfect thanks to Dennis! He had prepared an amazing script that described our relationship perfectly; and the lightness and airiness of the ceremony had people crying, smiling, feeling joyful, and even laughing towards the end! He was so professional, knowledgeable about the wedding industry, and overall a nice calming energy. He even reached out after the wedding to remind us to obtain our legal certified copy of our marriage license! Dennis was one of the vendors we hired who totally had our minds at ease. I would 500/10 recommend him to friends, family, and any other person looking for a smooth and perfect day! Thanks a bunch Dennis!

    Dennis was amazing! He reached out to us to get an idea of what type of ceremony we wanted, wrote it up for us, and we didn’t have to change a thing!! He was very easy to work with, responsive and had great presentation. We received lots of compliments. Definitely hire him as your officiant :)

    Look no further! Dennis is your guy!!!

    We have known Dennis for many years, and it meant the world to us to have him officiate our wedding. Dennis is so professional, and is very passionate about his career. He truly was invested in our requests for our ceremony. We wanted a short ceremony, focusing on our love, and he delivered beyond our expectations! We received many compliments from wedding guests saying how great, and well spoken Dennis was during the ceremony. We would recommend him to anyone. There is no doubt in our minds, if we were planning our wedding again, we would chose him every time. If you are looking for an officiant that is fun to work with, caring, devoted, and all around great person, Dennis is the guy for you!!

    Added a personal touch to our special day

    Dennis was a great officiant at our wedding and we’ve had a few guests tell us how lovely the ceremony was! He was easy to talk to when we first met for a consultation, and really listened to what we wanted for our wedding ceremony. We wanted a short ceremony, focusing on love and not so much on religion, and requested a unity candle at the ceremony. He delivered! The script for the ceremony was well-written and he took our suggestions to heart (not that the script needed much changing, it was great from the start). We also loved having him at the rehearsal to show everyone the ropes, since neither we nor our wedding party had ever been involved in a wedding. Dennis was easy-going, fun to work with, and was a great speaker at the ceremony for us. We’d definitely recommend him.

    Perfect match

    We knew from the second Dennis agreed to meeting us for a beer at a local bar that we were going to click. From day 1, he was super responsive to my emails, listened to what we wanted, and got to know us on a personal level which definitely helped play a part in how special our ceremony was. He was more than willing to take any of my changes or suggestions to the ceremony script and through lots of collaboration, Dennis delivered the most personal, meaningful, and special ceremony I've ever heard (maybe I'm biased, but seriously!) We had a small ceremony and heard from every single guest that it was the most meaningful and heartfelt ceremony they had attended. On top of that, he is also just a super awesome guy. He felt like a friend, and my husband said that when he was getting nervous waiting to enter the ceremony, Dennis was a familiar face that made him feel more calm. If you're looking for a thoughtful officiant that will help shape your ceremony into an unforgettable experience, look no further, Dennis is your guy!

    September Wedding

    Dennis officiated our wedding on September 7, 2019. He was so professional and easy to work with. My husband and I knew that we wanted someone that would cater to the type of ceremony we wanted (casual and lighthearted) and Dennis absolutely came through. Our entire bridal party thought he was was so nice and so fun to be around. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a customized ceremony script!
