  Blessed to Have Found Fr. Douglas!

  Our experience could not have been more perfect! If you are looking for an officiant who genuinely cares about couples he is marrying...Fr. Douglas is the one. He takes the time to have real conversations to ensure he can give his absolute blessing. That was so importance to us. His sense of humor, friendliness, honesty and dedication to making our ceremony heartfelt and meaningful meant the world to us. Thank you Fr. Douglas.

  Amazing Wedding Officiant

  We chose Fr. Douglas of HOPE Ministries for our wedding officiant and could not have found a better fit for our wedding day. We had multiple conversations for months leading up to our big day about our relationship, religious views, plans for the future, and also what we wanted for our ceremony. We had an interfaith ceremony and he was able to incorporate traditions of both the Jewish and Catholic faiths seamlessly which was something that was very important to the both of us. We felt that we made a very strong bond with "Father Doug" and now consider him to be a friend. We would highly recommend HOPE for any of your wedding needs.

  Great Ceremony and Lots of Laughs

  Rev Doug pulled a whole ceremony together for us at very short notice. We had found him late in the game about 3 weeks before the big day, but he was able to put together a great ceremony that made us laugh, cry and showed all the love. He was also able to include our hand fasting ritual. Great Job!!!

  Wedding Ceremony

  When my husband and I were looking for someone to marry us, we wanted to find someone that was respectful of our wishes and could provide guidence through the process. When we met Rev.Doug we knew we found that plus more. He is amazing! Right away we felt as if we have known him forever. He has a great personality and is so warm and loving. My family and guests loved him too. We cannot say enough positive things about him.

  Dear Rev. Doug,
  
  Well, we did it! Finally! You are simply the best. Scott and I were so pleased that you were the minister who married us. My parents both stated that you were certainly not what they expected. My Mom thinks that this is certainly YOUR calling.
  
  Thank you for caring about us, staying for the Rehearsal Dinner and the Wedding Reception. I hear you got three hits from guests that are going to have weddings in the near future? Do we get a commission? Just kidding. Thank you for all you did and we love you for it.
  
  Love and Friendship,
  Sara and Scott
