Ian Sent on 09/27/2025Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Altar: Why Love, Honor, Cherish Is the Universe’s Most Improbably Perfect Wedding Maestro
In the swirling cosmic dance of wedding days, where love and logistics collide like starships in a meteor shower, one man stands as a beacon of brilliance, David, the Greatest Wedding Officiator on Earth. To label him merely an officiator is to call a supernova just a spark, it’s an understatement of galactic proportions.
From our first meeting, David proved himself a rare genius, wielding creativity like a master artist painting our ceremony with strokes of originality. His humor, sharp enough to slice through the thickest wedding day nerves, had our guests laughing like they’d been let in on the universe’s best kept joke. Yet beneath this wit beats a heart so warm and caring it could melt the iciest of cold feet.
David’s attentiveness is nothing short of extraordinary. He didn’t just hear our vision for the day, he absorbed it, shaped it, and delivered a ceremony that felt like it was woven from the very threads of our story.
Punctual? The man arrived with such precision we half suspect he’s cracked the secret of time itself. And as for guiding us through the process, David was our steadfast navigator, leading us through every step with the calm assurance of a seasoned explorer, ensuring we never stumbled into the quicksand of wedding chaos.
Let’s be clear, if David isn’t officiating your wedding, you’re not just missing out, you’re practically signing up for a ceremony as dull as a moonless night. This man is a marvel, a maestro, a matrimonial wizard who transforms “I do” into a moment so perfect it could make the stars themselves swoon. So, take our advice, book David, and hold on tight. Your wedding will be nothing short of celestial. -

Leading our Ceremony
Mr Lang was amazing throughout our whole process.
To begin with, Mr Lang met with us and went over a whole bunch of different options to go about our ceremony. Once we decided, we put everything together and was able to share it with us and allowed us to make any changes or additional we felt we would like.
During the ceremony, Mr Lang lead the whole ceremony and made his presence known. He commanded a presence. He was amazing. He was the voice of the ceremony.
Leading up to our wedding, we had some unforeseen things come up, and Mr Lang got us through it with no issues. He was able to help days leading up, and seconds leading to our ceremony starting.
Mr Lang was simply amazing and I would recommend him for any ceremony and know he will make it an experience you’ll never forget.
Thank you Mr Lang.

Highly recommend!!
David was great to work with and was super helpful with our ceremony. We explained to him what vibe we wanted and he crafted several samples for us to edit and collaborate on together. Our ceremony was heartfelt and within the timing that we wanted to achieve before guests get antsy. He was helpful with what we needed to do with the town for marriage license, quick to respond to emails and flexible with making changes and meetings. Could not ask for a better officiant highly recommend! -

David was perfect. At the beginning of planning our wedding, we had no clue on where to start, or who would marry us. We came across David as he came highly recommended by our DJ, and we could not have been happier we did. David helped us through the whole process, gave us plenty of options for readings and add-ons to our ceremony. He guided us through the entire process from start to finish. On the actual day of our wedding, he made us feel comfortable and at ease. We received many compliments from our guest regarding his professionalism and the way he carried out the ceremony. We would recommend David to any couple without hesitation. -

Jesenia Sent on 12/20/2024Dave Made Our Wedding Ceremony Truly Unforgettable
Dave was the perfect officiant for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From our very first conversation, it was clear that he truly cares about making each ceremony unique and meaningful. Dave took the time to get to know us as a couple, listening to our story, our values, and our vision for the big day. He seamlessly incorporated those personal touches into the ceremony, creating something that felt deeply reflective of who we are.
Dave’s warm and calming presence made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of the wedding, his professionalism and heartfelt delivery set the perfect tone—not just for us but for all of our guests. So many people came up to us afterward to tell us how beautiful and memorable the ceremony was.
If you’re looking for an officiant who is flexible, non-denominational, and truly dedicated to crafting a ceremony that fits your personality and style, we can’t recommend Dave highly enough. He’s a true gem, and we’re so grateful to have had him as part of our special day. -

David was the perfect officiant for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with how beautifully he conducted our ceremony. From the very beginning, he took the time to get to know us as a couple, ensuring that every part of the ceremony felt personal, meaningful, and unique to our love story.
His warm and calming presence made us and our guests feel completely at ease, and his thoughtful words truly captured the emotions of the day. David struck the perfect balance between heartfelt and joyful, creating a ceremony that was as emotional as it was uplifting.
He guided us through the process with such care and professionalism, offering support and advice every step of the way. On the big day, he delivered the ceremony flawlessly, making it a moment we will treasure forever.
If you’re looking for an officiant who is kind, engaging, and genuinely passionate about making your wedding day special, David is the one. We’re so grateful to him for making our ceremony everything we dreamed it would be! -

Professional officiation by David Lang
We hired Mr. Lang to be our officiant for our wedding at St. Clements Castle on Aug 9, 2024. That was the best decision. Mr. Lang was very thorough and professional. He made our wedding very special. His presentation was very on point, I must say. I like some humor myself and Mr. Lang certainly knew how to match my humor. If we could do our wedding again, I would hire Mr. Lang again no questions asked. When we renew our vows, it would be an honor to have Mr. Lang renew our vows. I can't speak highly enough how well of a presentation Mr. Lang did for us. He was very responsive and happy to help us with our questions. We had some custom skits incorporated into our ceremony and Mr. Lang was willing to customize the experience for us.
Thank you to Mr. Lang for a wonderful wedding day experience. -

Great officiant!
Dave officiated our wedding in April 2023. He was so easy to work with and made the process seamless! We loved that he had templates for us to work with to craft our ceremony in a way that felt personalized to us. We made lots of changes along the way and Dave was completely on board with each and every one. Highly recommend hiring Dave for your wedding - he's professional, affordable, and helps make your ceremony exactly what YOU want it to be! -

We received so many compliments on our ceremony length and meaning and we have David to thank for that! He made the whole process so easy by editing a google doc together, so we knew what to expect day of. David was the perfect mix of professional and easy going and an overall great person. It was truly touching seeing David get a bit emotional during the ceremony- many people asked where we knew him from even though we had only met in person once before! We highly recommend him! -

Rachel Sent on 07/09/2023Excellent officiant!
When we first met Dave over Zoom it felt like we were speaking with an old friend. We shared some laughs, got to know him better, and told him about ourselves and our ideas for our wedding ceremony. We had actually read other reviews on Wedding Wire and realized they all shared the commonality that Dave is professional and a pleasure to work with as an officiant, and they couldn't be more true. He offered many options for ceremony structure and content (including everything from traditional religious ceremonies to more relaxed contemporary ceremonies) and was very friendly and easy-going throughout the entire process. We mainly communicated through email and Zoom, and he was always happy to answer our questions as we worked to bring our ceremony vision to life. He was able to accommodate all of our requests, and delivered a beautiful ceremony on our big day. We highly recommend Dave as a wedding officiant for your special day! -

Best Wedding Officiant
If you are looking for someone to officiate your wedding stop right here! Dave is incredible! We met Dave to see if he was the "right fit" and we knew instantly he was. He made us feel comfortable, made us laugh and helped us plan our perfect ceremony at the first meeting!! Dave was easy to communicate with and fast to respond. The day of our wedding I was so happy to see Dave arrive and his calm nature kept us calm. My dad loved how he walked him through his job of walking me down the aisle and the official "handoff" to my husband! My photographer loved how Dave knew to "dive out of the way" for our first kiss shot! Our guests couldn't stop telling us how beautiful and special our ceremony was! Dave was perfect from beginning to end and I'm so thankful we found him for our wedding. -

Fantastic to Work With
David was a great officiant to work with. We had a small ceremony, that we had planned on our own. He was able to work with us and create vows that were just what we were looking for. Something simple, and included our children in the process. It was perfectly imperfect! -

Simply the Best!
One of the best choices we made when it came to our wedding was choosing Dave as our officiant! He is professional, charismatic, and overall a great human being. He brought a level of calmness to one of the most stressful and high emotion days that made us both take a deep breath and relax. The months leading up to the wedding, he was prompt and responsive and made the whole process very seamless! Our ceremony was intimate and beautiful, and is something we will both remember for the rest of our lives. I cannot recommend and speak highly enough of Dave! Everyone at our wedding had something wonderful to say about our ceremony and it couldn’t have been possible without him! -

Setting the Perfect Scene
I'll be honest! I'd fully forgotten about the need for an officiant and realized about a month out from my wedding day. To put it simply, I was STRESSED out! But that all changed when I got to connect with Dave.
After reaching out to Dave on The Knot, he was (thank god) available for our wedding day. And he was immediate in his responses and incredibly enthusiastic. We decided to set up a meeting for later that same week and upon meeting him, we knew we'd made the right choice. Dave was immediately energetic, personable, and charismatic and we knew he'd be the best person to officiate our ceremony. In that first meeting, he broke everything down for us in a really clear and easy-to-understand way that made all of my nerves and fears dissipate. I just KNEW we were in good hands.
My fiance and I aren't very religious and tend to be pretty chill. We wanted a short and sweet ceremony and Dave delivered exactly that for us. He matched the vibe we wanted to a tee! After that meeting, he kept us up-to-date and informed on the script and progress and I never worried. I was able to just show up on wedding day and everything went as planned. It was a beautiful ceremony with laughs and happy tears and Dave really made it all come together. I cannot thank him enough! -

We contacted Dave only 2 weeks prior to our wedding day and could not believe how quickly and professionally he put together our perfect ceremony. After a single video chat we felt confident that we were in good hands and all of our worries over words were relieved. He is very personable and brought a smile to all on our wedding day. Can't thank him enough and highly recommend him! -

Dave is the best!!! Made the day so fun and so easy!!!
Dave made the entire experience so fun and took a lot of stress and nerves away from us. We met via zoom and once more in person to go ever what we wanted said at the wedding. He knew exactly what we were looking for, short and sweet. He wrote up several options for us to choose from, and let us piece whatever we wanted together. We obviously could have done custom, but the write ups Dave has are perfect. There were a few inside jokes from our meeting, so throughout the ceremony we were all laughing. He made sure to back out of the photo during the kiss, which was a big detail my Wife asked him about. It made the day super enjoyable and stress free. He also did all the leg work regarding the documents and the boring stuff! We would have been lost without Dave. My Partner, capital P, and I will always remember our wedding day/ceremony because of the laughs, and we will recommend Dave to anyone for years to come! -

Dave is AMAZING and was exactly what my husband and I were looking for! I never met anyone who responded so quickly to emails and was very understanding when we postponed our wedding from 2020 to 2021 due to Covid. We expressed to Dave we wanted a very short ceremony and he made it happen without a question. Dave was very professional, well dressed, and very well spoken. Hire Dave!! You will NOT be disappointed!!! -

Absolutely Incredible
I could not possibly begin to even describe how wonderful David was through this entire process. Let me tell you, me and my wife are incredibly picky people and David blew us away. He was polite, fair, charismatic, at tentative, responsive, caring and overall just a great guy. He made everything so easy for us and made sure our ceremony was the best part of our wedding. Don’t consider David, just choose him. I’m telling you it’s one decision made out of the countless decisions you’ll have to make that will not be regretted. Thank you a million times over David, you were simply incredible. -

Amazing All Around!
Dave is absolutely amazing to work with. We booked with him for our 5/23/20 wedding and unfortunately we had to postpone our reception due to COVID-19. Dave was responsive and helpful when we had to postpone to 2021. We were lucky enough to still have to have a small private ceremony with our families on 5/23 and Dave went out of his way multiple times to be there for us and make our ceremony beautiful! I can’t wait to work with him again for our ceremony/reception in 2021. I would highly recommend Love Honor Cherish to all couples looking for a caring, well spoken, helpful, and loving officiant. -

Jenni Sent on 09/15/2019One of the best parts of our wedding!
I cannot say enough positive things about Dave from Love, Honor and Cherish. He went above and beyond for our wedding, even making adjustments up until the night before just to make sure we had everything we wanted! My husband and I loved working with him and enjoyed the way he ensured that our wedding was truly a celebration of our love. Our videographer decided to use a portion of his opening monologue as the background for our wedding trailer and everyone who has seen it agrees that his thoughtful and kind words are what makes the video so meaningful. I can't wait until we receive our full ceremony video and relive how perfect it truly was. I would recommend Dave to anyone! -

Dave was excellent! We loved his positivity, energy and professionalism. He took the time to learn about our relationship and customize our ceremony to fit us perfectly. He answered our questions quickly and made us really comfortable planning our ceremony. Dave gave us amazing memories and we couldn’t be happier that we chose him. He made our day perfect! And our guests were raving about him.Love, Honor, and Cherish's reply:
I don't think I had seen that picture yet! That is absolutely wonderful. I wish I could say that wasn't the first time a Best Man had to chase the ring down the aisle at one of my weddings, but...it totally was. -

Kyosah221 Sent on 08/30/2019An Absolutely Perfect Wedding Experience!
We don’t even know where to begin to let everyone know what an absolutely perfect experience it was working with Dave for our wedding. So, we will simply start at the beginning.
Back in June, we began looking for a wedding officiant in Thumbtack for our wedding in August. After creating a profile and selecting officiants that seemed to be a good match, Dave was one of the first – if not the first – to reach out to us. His message was extremely warm, inviting, thorough, and sincere. As we exchanged messages, it became clear that he was enjoying a family vacation but made the time to connect because he simply loves being able to bring people together who want to spend their lives together. But recognizing the importance of family time, we elected to reconnect a week or so later.
True to his word, Dave reached out to us as soon as he was home from vacation, and we set up an in-person meeting for later that week. Not surprisingly, Dave was prompt, professional, engaging, and 100% interested in helping us develop a one-of-a-kind ceremony that was perfect for us (a very small gathering of just us and our 6 children), including a beautiful sand ceremony to ensure that our children would have special roles during our big day.
Throughout the entire planning process, communication with Dave was easy, he is extremely professional yet an absolute hoot, and his attention to detail – including choosing his tie specifically to match our wedding colors – is second to none. We were able to easily edit the text of our ceremony, and the finished product was perfect for us.
Fast forward to our wedding day at beautiful Crystal Lake in Middletown, CT, and Dave was his typical early self. He is so composed and easygoing, all 8 of us were quickly at ease and ready to move on to the task at hand. The only hiccup to the day (which included perfect weather) was our professional photographer getting a bit lost and arriving a little late. We were apologetic, yet Dave’s simple response was, “This is the only place I need to be today”, reassuring us and making us feel as if our wedding was the most important wedding ceremony he would ever perform. Folks, being able to make a couple feel that important when someone performs hundreds of them – that is a gift.
The ceremony went off without a hitch, it was beautiful, emotional, and very our own, and our children were made to feel special and a big part of it. It may sound corny, but when Dave pronounced us husband and wife, it truly was a magical moment, as we kissed and then embraced our children – and Dave, who was truly not just the officiant, but part of our extended family at that moment.
If you’re looking for your perfect wedding ceremony, do not hesitate – contact Dave today. We will forever remember our perfect day at Crystal Lake. Thank you, Dave! -
