    Tania and Scott’s wedding

    David was great to work with from beginning to end for our Bilingual wedding. Great communication, very professional, and clearly experienced. He was calm and collected even in the hectic beginnings when we had to push the ceremony back almost 30 minutes. Thank you David from both Tania and myself you were excellent!

    Forever, Together's reply:

    Thank you so much, folks. Gracias por permitirme ser parte de tu día especial. El placer ha sido mío. 🙂

    Magical and beautiful ceremony

    We chose David because he was bilingual and all the great’s reviews. Also the background of the company and the touch storytelling about his wife. He made our custom ceremony more special and to be honest was magical! He get ours guests to follow the whole ceremony and made some special moments for us.

    amazing! 11-12-2022

    I was lucky to find David on somewhat of a short notice (roughly a month or less before the wedding) . He answered all my questions very quickly, and any email I sent he always responded right away. We decided to do a bi lingual wedding for some of our Spanish speaking guests and it was perfect! we were able to customize our ceremony to how we wanted it to flow. David showed up early to the ceremony I was not able to speak with him how the plan was too because my 2 year old was having a meltdown minutes before the ceremony which made it start a few minutes late but he was great and rolled with it and it was such a beautiful and amazing ceremony. Many of my guests complimented on David! would highly recommend him to anyone!


    thank you so much again David!
    - Taylor & Patricio .

    David saved the day

    I had never been to a wedding before, let alone planned my own, so I didn't really know what to expect when I reached out to David. I didn't realize how big of a part the officiant really plays- I figured they lead the ceremony and vows and whatnot, but David did so much more than that. He went above and beyond in preparing and informing us of what our options were ahead of time, and brought such a joyful energy to our little wedding the day of.

    Through no fault of anyone, our wedding day was like something out of a sitcom where everything just kind of falls apart- so how David was able to roll with the punches and keep the show running was truly a testament to his good humor and professionalism. We ended up having to ask him to freestyle something for us with the time we were given, and he really nailed it. He made people laugh, and cry (in a good way), and just feel at ease. Thank you David! If we decide to get married a 3rd time we'll be reaching out 😉

    David Cooper was Excellent

    David was wonderful from start to finish. He officiated our friend's wedding with humor and love which was just what they wanted. He was organized, kind, and on time. We highly recommend! This wedding was at The Ruins in Seattle with roughly 100 guests. Thank you David!

    Calm, collected, cool, and hilarious!

    David went above and beyond at our small and intimate wedding we had in October 2021. We had him show up for rehearsal the night before at the lodge we were getting married at which made the next day feel so much easier to navigate since we were definitely going for a non traditional vibe for our intimate wedding. David was so helpful and easy to work with and was the exact officiant we were looking for since he specializes in handfasting rituals. Even though our bridal party forgot the cords at the ceremony, he made the crowd feel at ease with his humor which I felt made the ceremony absolutely perfect and awesome! I would totally recommend him to anyone getting married in the Seattle/Snohomish area. Thank you so much!!

    Forever, Together's reply:

    Wow, thanks so much Sarah. It was my pleasure meeting and working with you both, and I had a lot of fun at your wedding. I'm so happy you were satisfied with the way things went. Stay safe, and take care of each other. - David

    Highly Satisfied!

    When I reached out to several wedding officiants on Wedding Wire, David was the only one who responded in a prompt professional manner. Our total experience with him was very positive and memorable! I'm glad we chose Forever Together.

    Forever, Together's reply:

    Thank you so much, folks. It was my pleasure working with you. Stay safe, take care of each other, and have a wonderful life together.

    David was great!

    David was a great officiant! Very early on in the process he gave us a lot of material to do research on to make sure we have time to pick/customize our own ceremony. He is also very patient and responsive to all of our questions and emails. He also has a great sense of humor, which match our ceremony vibes perfectly! Thank you so much David! Our ceremony wouldn't have been so amazing without you!

    Forever, Together's reply:

    It was a pleasure working with both of you, Xuan, and meeting your friends and family. Have a wonderful year and take care of each other!

    Amazing officiant!

    David and Joanna were awesome!

    We were initially conversing with Joanna through email and she was very informative and responded very quickly to our emails.

    David was who we met with in person; and my husband and I hit it off with him very well. He was very flexible in customizing the type of wedding ceremony we were wanting. We ultimately decided to work with him because he made us feel comfortable, he had experience in all types of ceremonies (we wanted to include both Filipino and Irish traditions) our ceremony and he was super funny!

    We opted to add a rehearsal the night before our wedding - David showed early and was good in catching up some bridal party members that showed up late. The day of the wedding he did more than we could have imagined. We're so happy he included humor in the ceremony - it really made us feel at ease.

    Overall, if you're on the fence about deciding to work with David; I'd highly suggest to do so! You won't be disappointed.

    Forever, Together's reply:

    Thank you so much, Crystel. I had a blast working on your wedding, especially making all of your requests work together smoothly. I'm so happy it all came together for you and you had fun. After all, if you can't have fun getting married, you probably won't have fun being married, either...right? Take care, all the best and thanks again. David

    Wonderful memory from Forever, Together

    After we searched for professional wedding officiants, we found some of them who we would like to work with. We made decision to contact Forever, Together which was the correct answer for us. Joanne and David responded immediately and provided us with flexible times and wedding ceremony options. That was really helpful, because we did not have much time to prepare. David worked for us. He is really professional and responsible person. Even we were faced with some problems, with his assistances, everything went well. You can rely on them to create your fabulous memory. We would recommend Forever, Together to you for your precious experience.

    Forever, Together's reply:

    Thank you so much, Wanny. It was a joy working with you both and I think we had some fun at your wedding, which is as it should be. Have a wonderful married life and let us know if there's every anything else we can do for you!

    Easy Peasy

    I love these two. They are very warm and caring. We had no idea what to do for a ceremony except for hand fasting. They showed me many options and the ceremony was designed just for us. I would definately recommend them to everyone!!!

    Forever, Together's reply:

    Thank you so much, Letitia. Your wedding was a lot of fun, and meeting you both was a real pleasure. Have a wonderful married life together and remember you can renew your vows anytime at no cost!

    Great experience for us procrastinators!

    My fiancé and I waited way too long to find an officiant, and I was stressing out that we might not find one in time for our wedding day. My best friend actually found Forever, Together for me and sent me their way after learning they had our date available! We had a wonderful experience from the start working with David, and just a few minutes into our first video conference decided we wanted to work with him. He sent over many emails containing packets of details and ceremony options, and we ended up selecting on of his premade options. It was wonderful to meet him on our special day and he preformed the perfect light-hearted, short and sweet ceremony with some humor, which was a definite plus for us! If you're looking for a great team to work with, don't hesitate to contact Forever, Together! A million thanks to David and Joanna!

    Forever, Together's reply:

    It was my pleasure to work with you, Alora. Thank you so much for your kind words. Joanne and I wish you all the best and a wonderful married life together.

    We were so lucky to have David as our officiant for our wedding, since he has many years of experience and was very personable. When we booked him, he e-mailed us several documents offering examples of different ceremony styles to give us some ideas on how to create our ceremony outline. Honestly the whole process was super easy, and he even shared some vows examples for inspiration. We were only able to schedule the ceremony rehearsal on the day of the wedding, but David arrived an hour early before the ceremony and we were able to do a quick walk-through with no issues. He went through our ceremony smoothly and even threw in some humor for a few laughs. We loved our ceremony and David did an excellent job throughout the whole process!

    Great Value, Easy to Work With

    Joanna performed our elopement style wedding. She was so flexible and willing to customize things to us. She has a great sense of humor and warm personality. David printed our keepsake wedding license and it turned out so nice!

    My husband and I are so happy we found David for our wedding ceremony. We were able to meet with him prior and discuss our vision for our ceremony. He was able to meet us at the venue for our rehearsal and made sure everyone was on track on what to do. He showed up right on time for the ceremony and did a great job throughout the whole ceremony. I would definitely recommend David to any friends or family!

    I am so glad I found Joanna! She took the time to meet me and my husband and got to know a bit of us. We got married on top of the space needle and even with an injured foot she still came up and did the ceremony! The examples of ceremonies help out and we choose what fit best. We will see her in a year for our anniversary!!!

    i found Joanne on wedding wire, she was very responsive and always responded to my emails within 24-48 hrs!

    They have a big packet they send you (via email)!which allows you to customize and pick your ceremony to go according to your plans!! We fell in love with the pieces they sent us!

    We didn't do a rehersal until the day of the wedding and it went very smoothly she just walked us through exactly how the ceremony would play out!!

    I enjoyed being able to customize the wedding and have the option to put in different things like the handfasting ceremony. We were able to write our own vows, which i didn't know you had to write them down to do so. If i had a question it was answered quickly and they gave me all the info for after the ceremony about obtaining proof of marriage and our certificate.

    It was such a pleasure working with Joanna Marshall. Planning and preparing for a wedding is such a special but huge ordeal. And with a family like mine that wanted a ceremony like this and not like this....it was getting to be a little overwhelming. Joanna made it so simple and easy. My husband and I just wanted a simple short but sweet ceremony to take place with our own vowels said. Our cemerony was just that. Everyone said it was so lovely and personal. Both families were very happy and most important my hubby and I felt like it was perfect for us. The paper work part was so easy and simple. Never did I have to worry or stress about anything with Joanna. We can't thank you enough for making our wedding just perfect! So glad we were able to have you as our Officiant.

    I would definitely recommend David Cooper, our wedding was made so much easier, didn't worry about anything except for getting our marriage license. Our wedding was done in Spanish and did a great job, we didn't even have to worry about the ceremony he had it done we just needed to put it together in the way we wanted the ceremony to start and end.

    It was such a wonderful and rewarding experience working along Rev, David for my wedding. Besides all the stress of planning the wedding, Rev David made it seem so smoothly when planning the ceremony. I made so many changes to the ceremony from beginning to end, yet he was always so pleasant and flexible while working with him. He made the ceremony so beautiful, I will always cherish the memories of such a wonderful and special day :)
