    Highly recommend Matthew Love

    Planning a wedding on a short timeline from the East Coast to the Pacific Northwest coast near Seattle could have been incredibly stressful, but Matthew made the entire process seamless from start to finish.

    He was extremely accommodating with all of the logistics, including traveling several hours to the coast for our ceremony. His guidance, professionalism, and calm presence helped make our wedding day smooth, heartfelt, and truly memorable.
    Matthew created a beautiful ceremony that felt personal and genuine, and we could not have asked for a better officiant. If we could do it all over again, we would hire Matthew Love again in an instant. Highly recommend!

    The Magic of Matthew

    I recently got to witness the magic of Matthew. A few weekends ago, he officiated the wedding ceremony for close friends and it was an unforgettable experience.
    Matthew has a rare gift — he truly connects with people. He’s deeply curious about everyone around him, and that authenticity makes him incredibly powerful in this role. His words were thoughtful, personal, and moving. By the end of the ceremony, the entire group (though small) had tears in their eyes.
    Even though the ceremony centered on the couple, Matthew somehow brought everyone into the experience. It felt intimate, meaningful, and unforgettable.
    Matthew isn’t just great at this — he’s the kind of person you want leading a moment like this. Warm, joyful, and a little bit magical.

    Saved us so much stress!

    Working with Matthew for our wedding was truly a delight! He really cares about you as a couple and your story so that he can customize your experience. We had him as our officiant and DJ, so he was with us from start to finish at our wedding. We are so glad he was, because the venue screwed up and didn't provide us with a day of coordinator like we agreed upon. Matthew naturally stepped in to fill some of those gaps and we couldn't be more grateful! He saved us from so much stress on our special day. You can tell he's done many weddings before and is a seasoned pro. We couldn't recommend him enough!

    Amazing Officient!

    Matthew was the best officiant we could have asked for our wedding. He made an effort to get to know us as a couple and our backstory and asked about our family so that our ceremony was perfectly tailored to us. He communicated with us through the whole process and helped guide us through our rehearsal which he made very fun and meaningful. Our ceremony was so beautiful and he took a selfie with us and the guests which was so great! I would recommend him for any event!

    Oh big hugs to you Mathew Love…..thank you so much!

    Matthew Love married my niece and her husband on a beautiful day that we all cherished.
    From the time you meet Matthew, his professionalism and caring attitude brings you at ease. He truly loves his work as you sit there and listen to him through the ceremony.
    After the ceremony, we even shared stories of life at our table with him he’s truly a wonderful man.
    We highly recommend him for any event that you’re having and look forward to seeing him again.

    Matthew Love is the perfect wedding officiant!

    Matthew Love is not just a wedding officiant, a master of ceremonies, a talented DJ, he's a spiritual guide. He pours his heart into his work and commands powerful energy when he leads the room. Every moment with him was filled with warmth and joy. I recall driving home from our first meeting with him and my now wife looked at me and said "he's the one."

    Matthew made everything easy and fun and he took care of the minor details and coordinated perfectly with our day of coordinator at the Imperia. We had the perfect wedding. Thank you for everything Matthew!

    10/10 would recommend

    Pastor Love officiated at my daughter's wedding in August of 2024 and all of us are better for him being such a grand part of it. What an impact he made on us all, what a truly beautiful and personal wedding he created! Pastor Love was not only amazing with the happy couple, but he took time to engage with every guest there. He genuinely loves people, and it was easy for us to love him right back. God was surely with us the day he sent Pastor Love to us all, and we will forever be grateful for the stellar job that he did.

    Wonderful Experience from Love's Events

    As someone who's been in the wedding industry for a while, I've got to tip my hat to Love's Events for their outstanding work at Amber and Jason's wedding. They handled everything — from coordinating and officiating to DJing and MCing — with such ease and professionalism, it was truly impressive. Their skill in keeping the sound quality top-notch while staying under the radar was just the icing on the cake. Honestly, Amber and Jason’s day wouldn’t have been half as smooth or memorable without them. The dedication and care Love's Events put into their work really made the celebration one for the books. They’ve set a new bar for what we, as wedding professionals, can aspire to.

    Wedding officiant / Organizer / MC / DJ

    When we started looking for help with our wedding we weren’t entirely sure what we needed. We found Matthew and he offered to come to our house and sit down with us to explain what kind of services he provides and helped us to get an overview of how the night might go. After talking with him we really started to see the wedding take shape.
    We ended up hiring Matthew to fill multiple roles in the wedding, which he did seamlessly. He even helped us to choose our vows and song choices. When we needed help he offered advice but when we knew what we wanted he respected our choices.
    When the day actually came everything went perfectly. When small things came up Matthew adjusted on the fly to handle them. When I spilled my champagne all over the table Matthew was even faster than the venue staff to come help clean it up. As DJ he read the room and changed his playlist to match the energy level of the crowd.
    In total he Matthew really did everything he could to make our night as special as possible and we would absolutely recommend him to anyone.

    Professional. Organized. Fun. Energetic

    Matthew was a consummate professional, warm, engaging, flexible and fun all rolled into one guy! We chose Matthew to be our wedding officiant, host, and DJ. During the months leading up to our wedding, we met with him several times to come up with the perfect combination of vows, songs and schedule for our big day. We had no idea where to start and he helped guide us all the way. He had great suggestions and when our visions were different, he easily adjusted his material and guidance to fit exactly what we wanted. During the wedding, he was engaging and fun. Guests were impressed. He made an inherently stressful process easy and streamlined. I think the best part about hiring Matthew was knowing that he would take the stress of greeting and hosting off of us so we could just have fun. We would 100% recommend Matthew to anyone who needs an organized, energetic, experienced host, DJ and/or wedding officiant.

    Energetic and amazing!

    Matthew was our wedding's officiant and coordinator. He is the vendor that spent the most time with us to prepare our wedding plans. He is fun, energetic, well spoken, and protective! My wedding guests said great feedbacks about Matthew. He also goes above and beyond to help with what he could to make our wedding day smooth and fun! We highly recommend Matthew!

    #FinallyDelaCruz

    A big thank you goes to Matthew who was not only a wonderful Officiant but a friend as well. Everything went smoothly, from getting to know us, creating our promises, rehearsal day, to our big day. Matthew's value of getting to know the couple AND the family & friends, makes him the best at what he does - it creates relationships (because it's more than just a service). His presence and contribution to our wedding made our big day even more beautiful. Thank you for everything Matthew!

    An Incredibly Professional, Loving, and Charming Officiant

    Matthew was incredible at our ceremony, and I(groom) especially appreciated how he incorporated our thoughts, feelings, and mental state into the ceremony. We truly enjoyed the ceremony and got a ton of compliments on our vows! Matthew worked with us to make a "public" version that really wowed our guests, but also let us have an intimate moment while at the altar.

    Matthew is a great connector and he always had a way to keep the day moving forward. Whether that be at our rehearsal when we asked to switch our call/response to a monologue, or when our family's were less-than-willing to fill up the front rows at the ceremony. Matthew was a consummate professional.

    Vendor to Vendor-Matthew is GREAT

    Matthew was a fantastic DJ/MC to work alongside. Prior to the couple’s event he had fantastic recommendations to help with transitions and event flow. His sound and light equipment helped to transform the venue creating a unique experience for the wedding couple. Guests were welcomed and entertained by his warm and dynamic personality. I can’t wait for the opportunity to work alongside Matthew again.

    Excellent! Accommodating and Sincere, everything we wanted

    Loved our time with Matthew! He was so excited and met with us personally to make sure we had the wedding we envisioned. Loved his professionalism and most importantly his energy! We interviewed so many Officiants and while they were all lovely in their own way, Matthew was just leagues above the rest. So happy with him and know you would be to.

    Master DJ & Officiant

    Matthew was an excellent help for my wedding day. From having an action plan at all times to helping ease all my stress and answer all of my questions. The custom vows was absolutely my favorite part. We also hired Matthew to be our DJ and he was great. His set up was out of this world, quality sound and music. I know my group was a little unique and could be challenging but Matthew persevered and took on the task and handled it very well.

    Everything was perfect!

    I have waited three years to write up something because our experience was so special it's difficult to articulate. My now husband Travis and I met Matthew at the now defunct (due to Covid) Serious Pie in Seattle and I still think of him every time I drive by. The next time we got together was at our newly acquired small farm way out in Enumclaw where Matthew met my children, Sean and Ryleigh as well as Travis's visiting parents. Matthew would spin his wedding magic in such a warm, endearing manner we became ever more excited and confident in his abilities to make magic. When it came time for a two day one night wedding weekend at Wellspring Spa near Mt. Rainier, not only did Matthew officiate, DJ, emcee and be the unifying presence of the experience masterfully, but THE most special thing he did (and Sean and Ryleigh speak of this as their FAVORITE part of the wedding) was taking them a few miles away to breakfast to give me the peace, quiet and time a bride wants on her big day. That was Matthew's idea, the highlight of the weekend for my kids and an extraordinary gift to me and Travis. This is beyond exceeding expectations; this is truly the heart of a man who could not be doing anything else in the world more perfect for him than THIS! That's what makes him completely different; a sincere passion to connect and facilitate from the heart. Don't keep him at arms length or at the periphery of your closest loved ones if you want that same magic. This is among the most personal intimate experiences of one's life and Matthew couldn't be more ideal to help craft your very best!

    Highly recommend Matthew Love to help curate the wedding of your dreams!

    We hired Matthew to be our wedding officiant in 2019... and got married in 2022. Needless to say we stuck with him and his work through all three years of cancellations and setbacks. It ended up being a great decision, Matthew was integral in the flow and communal elements of our wedding. He will take as much time as needed to ensure that your wedding makes sense to you, meaning anything from the big plans to the small details in wording. We can only speak from our experience, but we wanted our wedding to lean away from a lot of older traditions and maintain intimacy amongst our small wedding. Matthew delivered, in his work, and in his time spent with us, always ensuring that our day would be the one that made the most sense to us. We had an amazing time, and highly recommend Matthew.

    Best officiant ever

    We searched and messaged quite a few officiants, and after receiving so many messages that the officiant wasn't available, Matthew emailed and then calls me not even 5 minutes later. Matthew and I (groom) immediately clicked, and we talked for probably close to half an hour that first phone call. That phone call made such a huge impression on me, that I knew we had found our officiant.

    Matthew was extremely professional and personable throughout our whole process. He always had everything prepared prior to our meetings and helped take away tons of stress that we were feeling going into the wedding. We loved his approach to the ceremony which gave us control of what he was going to say during, and how we would like our ceremony to go. The way he performed the ceremony was absolutely perfect, and we wouldn't have wanted it to go any other way. We HIGHLY recommend Matthew to anyone who is needing an officiant, or honestly any of his other services.

    Gifted officiant!

    Matthew was amazing, he not only officiated our wedding, but did all the MC/Music for us! He really made the wedding a party fun for all, brought everyone out of their shells and got a quite introverted crowd to hit the dance floor! He has a true gift with people, and knows weddings! He helped put my planning anxiety at easy and gave so many pro-tips I never would have thought of! Could not have done it without him!

    The best package deal you will find! He does it all.

    Matthew is incredibly hard working and will be dedicated to making your special day amazing. Matthew was the officiant, MC and DJ at our wedding. We had two very detailed in person at our home pre-wedding meetings, conversations on the phone and he came to our wedding rehearsal and dinner ( on separate days and locations). His rates for all that he provides are outstanding. We were not even going to hire a DJ or MC as we were having a small ( 50 people) wedding and I am so glad that we found Matthew. It really made a huge and ( and positive) difference to have him there to orchestrate events and get the dance party going. I really don't think we would have even had dancing if he had not been there. If anyone who reads this is on the fence about needing a DJ,/MC I can say that as someone who also had doubts, it was well worth it. The added bonus of having Matthew officiate made it even better. Thank you Matthew for an amazing day!

    The amount of effort and positive energy Matthew brought was outstanding!!!!!

    Matthew Love was one of the best decisions we made for our big wedding day. He took the time to inquire the music we loved, liked, and disliked without any judgment or expectations. When giving him the specific list of songs to be played, he didn’t bat an eye. He dedicated the necessary time he needed to prepare when talking to me and setting up on the day of. Our wedding was a bilingual wedding, and he was willing to learn about my husband’s culture and make the necessary adjustments to ensure everyone was involved equally. For example, we had ASL interpreters who were present during the reception and each time Matthew was ready to speak he would make sure to get the attention of an interpreter first so that my Husband and our friends, who are Deaf, were provided the same experience as the rest of the hearing guests. Matthew was patient with us and went above and beyond what we expected of a DJ. His energy lit up the room and brought the guests together to dance and everyone had so much fun!!! He was able to work side by side with our day of coordinators and other vendors to ensure that we had the best wedding day possible. I would HIGHLY recommend him to be used for any of our weddings, receptions, or DJ needs. If you are bilingual or multicultural, have no fear, he is an open book willing to listen, learn, and adjust as necessary. We wish we could have a second wedding just so we had the chance to work with Matthew again!

    Matthew is the best MC we have ever met!

    Matthew is the best MC we have ever met! He is super responsive, full of passion, professional and has magic hosting skills. We had to move our wedding date from 2020 to 2021 due to the lock down. Matthew is very considerable and flexible and we worked out the new dates and plan.

    Matthew is a very good officiant. For the ceremony wording, Matthew came up with touchy lines tailored just for us. During the ceremony when I was too excited to repeat after him, he was able to read my subtle feelings before my brain went blank and auto broken down the sentences and nobody except myself ever noticed.

    Matthew is professional being a MC. Our family was not able to travel to our wedding. Thus, when our shy friends all sat from the back and the first row was empty, he politely invited the second row to the front and filled second row with people from the back with appropriate words and no one felt asked to do so and the movement was quick and minimal.

    Matthew is very receptive as a planner and has a lot of ideas. Never thought I could have the opportunity to throw my lovely DOTA2 puffy dolls to my bachelor friends and my best man actually caught it! Matthew listens to our needs and always encourage us with "you should do it!".

    Matthew is a good DJ + MC. He is able to find our special versions of songs and cue the songs seamlessly. I did a small guitar performance (Yea Matthew said to me "you have to do it"), and my AMP did not agree with my mic and kept howling (I tested it before the wedding but you know, things always happen when you are on the spot). Matthew helped me fix the problem on the stage real quick. I used Matthew's mic for singing and my own AMP & mixer just for the guitar. That performance was not rehearsed and he was able to handle the situation and it went really well.

    Finally, the biggest reason for us to choose Matthew (and we are glad we did) was he could invite our guests to enjoy and be part of the wedding. We really want our guests (we had a small wedding thus only close friends were there) to enjoy the small reunion for themselves.

    So glad we used Matthew Love as our officiant!

    Matthew Love was amazing! Thoughtful, kind, professional, and just a great person to be around! Our wedding was impacted by Covid-19 (went from a 180 person guest list at a venue to a 6 person early-morning elopement in the mountains), and he was so flexible and great to work with though navigating all the changes! He really put effort into getting to know us prior to the wedding and crafted a beautiful ceremony just for us. We are planning to have a vow renewal with our family and friends later on and will definitely be using him for that!

    A pitch-perfect wedding!

    Matt was our go-to guy for our wedding. A DJ, officiant, MC, day-of-coordinator, planner, you name it... everything he touched shined.

    Our ceremony was an emotional extravaganza. Matt, having helped us frame the ceremony and our vows, translated our dreams perfectly. Put simply, our ceremony was a pivotal and defining moment in our life.

    Our reception afterwards could be best described as electric. We wanted things to be spontaneous, which Matt somehow honored while maintaining a schedule full of first dances, speeches, joy, laughter, and food. In the middle of COVID and wildfire smoke, no less.

    He was (is) our advocate, friend, and go-to guy. We'd recommend him one billion percent for like, any event ever.

    Overall terrific and memorable experience

    Matthew was our officiant and DJ for our wedding. We loved how he included everyone in the wedding party and all the guests throughout the entire wedding weekend. He was also very flexible and helpful with our plan B wedding, which was pretty much completely different from plan A besides the location. We would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants an exuberant, helpful and fun officiant/DJ during this crazy time!

    Would not have been the same

    It would not have been the same without Matthew. He was the perfect officiant and DJ for my husband, Jeff, and I. Through our meetings and experience, there were two big things I immediately learned about Matthew. Firstly, was his ability to make everyone feel warm and welcome and secondly, his hard work in making sure he connects with you and learns who you truly are no matter if you're the bride, groom, bridesmaid, or guest. He was addressing people by their names and while our wedding wasn't large, it was heartfelt. The word choice at the service was so personal, thoughful, and full of energy.

    Matthew- Jeff and I are so appreciative of you. Through your words of encouragement, all your organization when we were not, ability to quickly and efficiently set up in only about an hour before the ceremony, and way you made everyone feel warm, welcomed, and relaxed- you exceeded Jeff and my wishes. We cannot think of a better human to have been our officiant (and DJ). Thank you. Truly thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We're better for having met you and including you in our special day.

    Excellent Officiant for Non Cookie-Cutter Couples

    We couldn't be happier with Matthew as our officiant. He took great care in getting to know us as individuals and as a couple, and made the vow-creating process engaging. He created a wonderfully poignant and personalized set of vows that we will recall fondly forever. 100% would recommend to any couple who's tired of the stock, cookie-cutter wedding ceremony.

    Our Wedding Officiant

    Matthew Love was our wedding officiant. He was so much fun, charismatic, professional, personable, & comical. It was important to us to have someone with all of those qualities & he was it. He was organic & took the time to engage to really get to know us. We instantly connected with us & our guests. He was a great listener & did such a wonderful job guiding us through our vows that he wrote so beautifully for us. We were able experience all the raw emotions & at the same time he lightened it up the with his natural humor. Matthew also embraced our family culture & helped us incorporate the Thai ceremony during his officiating which was very important to us. We had a DJ flying in the day of the wedding which made us super nervous since things can go wrong last minute, but Matthew was so gracious & offered to fill in as our MC & DJ in case ours didn't show up. He offers so many services im in addition to officiating. We knew we were in good hands. The level of spiritual energy he had & eloquence blew us away. We were so grateful to have found him. The ceremony was extra special having someone unite us with the name "Love". We will never forget him...it was the best day of our lives thanks to Matthew Love!

    The best for the job!

    My wife and I interviewed several officiants before we decided to have Matthew Love marry us. We knew from the first call that he was the right choice. While most others discussed their strategies and payment processes, Matthew opened with “So how did you guys meet?” Throughout the whole process, Matthew was there to ensure we got just what we were looking for and helped us wherever we needed him. We had dinner after the first venue tour to go over some final details and my mom liked him so much that they were sharing sandwiches in between talking points. He was our officiant, DJ, and MC for the wedding itself and he crushed it! Matthew met with the bridal party before the ceremony and I was approached by a groomsman afterwards who said, this was the first time he had actually felt like he was a part of the wedding as a groomsman and not just another guy standing up there. That was the environment that Matthew created. The ceremony had everyone in happy tears, the reception went seamlessly following his direction, and the music kept the party going until we had to leave. Matthew made sure our wedding went exactly how we wanted it to and we couldn’t have done it without him. I would highly recommend Matthew to anyone who wants to have a fun, well executed, and memorable wedding. Thank you Matthew!

    Inspiring, creative, and unique...just what we wanted!

    My fiance, Paul, and I had no idea who to hire for our officiant. That's when we found Matthew Love, owner of Love's Events. Paul and I are so happy we found Matthew! He met with us in person 3 times and spent hours with us getting to know us. He is a very perceptive person, and it doesn't take long to learn that Matthew has a deep respect for all religions and beliefs. Matthew crafted a unique ceremony for us that reflected us, our beliefs, and our love for each other. During the ceremony, all I could do was listen in awe to every word he said. Matthew has a wonderful way of connecting everyone to each other and us during our special evening. Several members of our family told us they loved Matthew, our ceremony and how special it was for them too.

    Matthew Love was also our Emcee and DJ. I don't know how he wore so many hats that night, but he did an amazing job! He had to deal with a super late set up time. Matthew was originally given a scant hour to set up his equipment, and that was shaved down to 20 minutes! He didn't miss a beat and got everything ready on time. As an Emcee, he kept our guests informed and on track all night. The lights and sound system are great. Matthew added personal touches to the lighting for me, like lighting along the walls and on the cake. It was so beautiful!

    Matthew rocked it as a DJ too. He is so energetic and upbeat, everyone was ready to dance and have fun! The night was over before we knew it. Paul and I are very happy that we had the chance to work with Matthew and make him part of our wedding day. It would not have been the same without him. We both recommend Matthew Love for his creativity, professionalism and dedication to making your occasion special.

    Amazing diligence and care

    Matthew brought a personal touch to our wedding that was well beyond what I expected. He invested significant time getting to know us and learning what our wedding meant to us as a couple. His care, follow-through, and attention to detail was so comforting as we went through this process. If you want someone who cares, who really cares, about you as a couple and making your day special, he is your guy. I’m happy through this experience to now call him a friend.

    He also did the DJ work for the wedding and knocked that out of the park. I don’t know how he does it, but I fully endorse him!

    Genuine, Positive Energy and Full of LOVE!

    The moment I met Mr. LOVE (Matthew), I knew he was someone special. He is genuine, personable and full of LOVE! My son hired him to officiate one of the biggest milestones in our family history. On such a grand occasion the right officiate needs to be “THE ONE”. Mr. LOVE was it. From the beginning he had great ideas yet was respectful of the couples wishes. He is full of positive energy, interacting with the entire family and guests all through the ceremony and into the reception. Mr. LOVE not only officiated the wedding ceremony, he DJ’d the reception and was master of ceremony keeping things moving in a professional and fun way. We had worried about the sound quality of an outside wedding, but Mr. LOVE’s audio/stereo equipment met the mark and surpassed our expectations. He truly felt like one of the family and will not be forgotten. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for engineering such and amazing, unforgettable moment in our lives.

    Simply the best

    I can’t say enough about Matthew Love. We met him at a wedding show and knew pretty instantly that we had to have him as our officiant and later decided to have him DJ too. He is not your average wedding vendor. His passion and love for what he does comes through in every way. He spent many hours meeting with us and customizing everything to us...which was all enjoyable and a lot of fun. He’s one of those people you meet that just have this amazing energy around them and you just want to be friends with them. :)

    He also guided us in areas of our wedding that I wouldn’t have expected but was so right on. The decisions were always up to us but his advice was above and beyond and though we didn’t always go with all his suggestions, in hindsight, we probably should have, lol.

    Matthew is one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. We had numerous people come up to us and compliment how truly moving our ceremony was and that was really a testament to all the work he did for/with us. Our ceremony wasn’t long but we wanted it meaningful and for our guests to feel the love and be reminded of the love in their lives. Ive photographed about 60 weddings years ago and while every wedding is special and beautiful ...I will say that there are a lot of officiants who seemingly just show up the day of, read the standard stuff and it has no real heart. There’s so much to do with wedding planning and I get how the ceremony gets overlooked at times with all the chaos but we all know that really is the reason for the day and deserves some real time and attention. Matthew will help make doing that easy and fun.

    He also did an incredible job with the music and being our MC. He kept the party going, he got in all our music (including some unique choices), he found a better version than I could find of the song I had picked to walk down the aisle to (and played it for me at a meeting to let me choose...his version was absolutely perfect) .... just everything was amazing about working with him.

    I could go on and on but I’m 100% confident he’s the simply best out there and that there’s no one who will put more passion, love and care into your special day. I’d recommend him a million times over. Thank you, Matthew. Thank you sooo much!!

    So HAPPY with our decision to hire Matthew!

    My husband and I hired Matthew to be our officiant at our wedding at Columbia Winery. We are absolutely happy with the decision we made to go with him because he incorporated everything we wanted into our ceremony (even the Filipino wedding Traditions). He’s so easy to work with and will do all he can to make your ceremony perfect and personalized. Our wedding party and guests loved him as well because he really gets the guests involved and engaged. You won’t regret it hiring him! Thanks so much Matthew for making our ceremony unforgettable!

    You were an amazing officiant, emcee, and day-of coordinator, and we couldn't have pulled off this wedding without your words of wisdom and enthusiastic support! And you really nailed your lines in our wedding video (you'll see...), just like the untrammeled professional that you are! We really appreciate how thoughtful, caring, and loving you have been as our love has grown over the years, and we can't wait to continue our adventures as (dancing) newlyweds!

    Amazing from the first time we spoke.

    I knew over the phone that I wanted to hire Matthew at love Love's Events. After setting up and meeting and talking with Matthew I really knew that we wanted to hire Love's Events. Matthew is amazing and takes the time and uses tools to really get to know the couple. He makes each day special to that couple and their day.

    My wife and I are really, really, really happy with our wedding day. We thought everything went perfectly and could not have asked for anything to have been different. A big part of that was Matthew, his spirit, his eloquence and his boundless, positive energy. Throughout the day, I appreciated how he moved everyone with his speeches, gracefully smoothed every wrinkle, and got and kept the party going once we were in that stage. I heard from many of the guests, without asking, that they really liked his performance. Matthew will be the perfect officiant, DJ and/or MC for your wedding.

    Matthew officiated and MC’d our wedding at Hangar 30 on September 15, 2018 and we honestly can’t say enough of ALL the good things about him. Planning a wedding is hard, finding perfect vendors is even more difficult. Matthew was a joy and a true partner in the process.

    He really took the time over several meetings to get to know us, learn about our families and our vision for our day. The result of this collaboration really shows in a ceremony that is as unique as your relationship and promises that you can truly live by. This is no “canned” ceremony script! Before the ceremony- Matthew took the time to cut through the (inevitable) chaos, focus the wedding party on the reason why we were there and set the tone for the day.

    As MC, Mathew is a true asset. One of the most important aspects of the day for us was that the flow of the reception felt natural but also engaging for our guests. Have you ever been to an event where you ended up kind of waiting around for the next thing to happen? One of my biggest pet pet peeves. Matthew helped us craft the timeline and on the day of worked with our vendors to execute while keeping guests engaged and informed.

    In the end, we laughed (so much), we cried (happy tears) and we wholeheartedly recommend hiring Matthew for your event.

    *NOTE TO MATTHEW: Please consider 9/15/2038 booked for our vow renewal!

    Matthew was amazing to work with as he was the DJ/emcee for a wedding that I was the coordinator for. He's full of positive energy and so accommodating, you can't help but smile whenever you're with him. He stuck to the schedule, the notes that I prepared for him during the reception, and he also went above and beyond to be personable with the guests and be on top of the timeline. He's very detailed oriented and it was very reassuring to have him on the team. Thank you, Matthew! I hope to cross paths soon!

    Our wedding day was perfect because of Matthew!! I am so glad I found his website, because I can’t imagine how our day would’ve been if we had hired someone else. Not only is he an amazing person, but he knows what he’s doing. We hired him last minute, and he was able to put everything together for us. Getting to know him was my favorite part, he’s super friendly and just has the most positive energy. He knew exactly what we wanted and needed for our special day, and I can’t thank him enough. He did an amazing job with outlining the program and helping us through our last minute plans. Thank you so much Matthew for everything, we are truly grateful! I guarantee that you won’t be disappointed with his services, he is the love of the party!

    Matthew is the best officiant, Emcee, DJ, party starter, friend, etc. out there! He truly made our wedding so perfect. There aren’t enough words to express how grateful we were to have him by our sides on our big day!

    I knew after one Skype call with Matthew that he was the PERFECT person to perform our ceremony. It felt like I had known him forever and we were old friends picking up where we had left off. Our situation was a bit different. My now husband and I live and Texas so we didn’t get the chance to meet Matthew in person until a month or so before the wedding. Finally, my mom and I met up with Matthew for lunch and in one meeting had EVERYTHING planned. He helped us think through every tiny detail and offered amazing recommendations to make our ceremony perfect for us. I hadn’t had that much fun at a lunch in a long time!

    Not only did Matthew officiate our ceremony, but he was also our DJ and Host/Emcee. Having Matthew there the entire evening was the BEST decision we made. He truly set the tone of our wedding and made everyone feel so involved and special. He captured the attention of everyone while keeping the focus on Tony and I. By the end of his “pow pow” before our ceremony, I think our entire crowd felt as if they had known him for ever. They felt comfortable with him and that feeling carried over into our reception. The entire place was filled with so much love. He has a magical way of bringing everyone together in that special moment. His beautiful words and bright personality radiated throughout our wedding.

    Matthew worked so beautifully with us to create the perfect vows, wedding, party, everything! Our day wouldn’t have been as perfect as it was if Matthew wouldn’t have been a part of it!

    I would highly, highly recommend Matthew for ANY event! He truly wants to make everything perfect for your event and becomes a part of your family! He’s absolutely THE best!

    We love you Matthew!

    When I first started wedding planning I was looking for a specific look, personality and professionalism in an officiant that would best fit both my husband and I during our wedding planning. Love's Events was actually the only Officiant with such a high rating near our area and every single person that he married wrote glowing reviews. Mathew had everyone in tears during our ceremony or maybe it was all the love in the air? He went above and beyond with making our special day even more special. Our wedding was so moving that a friend of mine who was separated from her husband came up to me and said that our ceremony was so beautiful that she was so inspired by our vows and our love that she wanted to work things out and recommit to her husband. I feel like that is the best compliment in the world to hear, that a friend was so moved by our ceremony.

    Thank you so much Matthew for working with us and making the most our of special day!!

    Matthew Love was the officiant and DJ for my daughters wedding in September and we were so happy she picked him. He is so organized and everything went so perfectly thanks to his attention to all the details!! But my favorite thing about Matthew is how much fun he is and how easy to work with. He really was a large part of her wedding being the fun and wonderful day that it was. He is worth every penny!!

    There are not many people that you meet and instantly click with, but with Matthew it is really easy to. He is so energetic it is hard not to gravitate to him. He really made the entire process effortless. Everything was perfection and his personality was exactly what we needed. All my family and friends that were in attendance kept saying how perfect he was for the ceremony. I had only one request of Matthew and it was that I didn't want a dry eye in the house, boy did he deliver. From ceremony to reception we got to enjoy Matthew and it was fun he kept the party going, my 8 year old daughter was on the dance floor all night. Matthew I want to thank you for being so amazing and really dedicating your a beautiful craft. If I had gone with anyone else I don't think this wedding would have been such a great joy. I can't thank you enough.

    Matt was everything we were looking for in an officiant! We enjoyed him as a person and every meeting we had to plan the ceremony was fun as well as productive. My husband and I wanted a unique and meaningful ceremony and Matt helped us achieve that. On the day of the wedding he made an effort to get to know many of our guest and that helped create an initiate and wonderful day. We had so many compliments from our family and friends about the ceremony. I highly recommend Matt you will not be disappointed!

    Matthew is amazing! He did an awesome job at my wedding about 2 weeks ago. He was our officiant, our host and MC, our DJ, and did the music for our ceremony. He met with my husband and I to finalize our wedding day and throughout each meeting, I knew we were in great hands! Matthew was funny, but professional and knew exactly what I wanted. My husband had his family from France fly in and Matthew was able to get them laughing even though there was a language barrier from rehearsal dinner to the day of the wedding. He is truly a one man show and keep calm throughout the wedding evening. Our guest gave so many compliments on how special the ceremony was. For the reception, he provided some lighting and it made the venue magically! He got my normally reserved family on the dance floor that evening. Thank you Matthew for being apart of our special day! It would not have been the same without him!!

    Matthew was professional at all times, Matthew provided everything we asked for, for our ceremony as well as our reception. Our guests gave us so many compliments in regards to the flow of everything that took place. Matthew has our guests ingaged in our ceremony and kept everyone dancing through out the reception. I never felt that we had any down time. I will recommend Matthew Love (Love Events) to anyone looking for an officiant or DJ. Thank you Matthew for being apart of our special day and seeing that everything went well without any issues.

    Mathew was amazing!! He was the officiant at my moms wedding and was hands down amazing. I met him the night before and he was part of the family by the time the day was over. Very straight forward, professional and a joy. The day would not have been the same with out him. I recommend him to anyone and everyone on their special day, I will use him in the future at my own wedding. 10/10 HE IS THE REAL DEAL.

    Matthew is amazing. Period.
    He was an integral part of not only the ceremony and reception but attended the "meet and greet/rehearsal" and helped to encourage introductions while gathering information about friends and family that was touchingly utilized over the next few days. He dealt with every little hiccup seamlessly and no one besides the handful of helpers would have even known. I also heard that the meetings he had with the bride and groom beforehand were extremely valuable and reassuring. His articulate words were a beautiful reflection of my two friends love for one another.
    If I ever get married I know who I'm going to call!

    Matthew did such an amazing job! I was the maid of honor for my best friends wedding, through the rehearsal and wedding he was outstanding. From what he wrote for the ceremony and how he conducted himself really shined, he's very personable, funny and genuine. I would highly recommend his services!

    Matthew is one of the best officiants I have been around. I have been to plenty of weddings and he is by far the best. The first time I met him I knew immediately that this is the person I want to marry us. His energy and personality are second to none and sets him miles ahead of his competitors. He doesn't just make it about the Bride and Groom, he makes sure that family and friends feel like they are part of the ceremony as well. He also lets the Bride and Groom put their own personal touch on the ceremony as well. My fiance's sister used him at their wedding last year, and her Father's wedding last week. My fiance and I were in both of the weddings, both were great and went off without a hitch. We are using him for our wedding next year too! Matt will make your wedding day as perfect and special as you always thought and expected it should be.

    Matthew was truly a pleasure and blessing at our wedding as our officiant. He was very accommodative, creative and supportive in what we needed. He helped write our vows as well as help us with our rehearsal. He was really fun to have and got the crowd going. Very organized and on time, he paid attention to all the small details and made sure we did not have to worry about a thing!

    Matthew officiated our wedding at the Fairmont in Seattle and absolutely nailed it. He met with us 2-3 times in person throughout the planning process to ensure the ceremony was exactly what we wanted. He personalized every bit of the ceremony to fit our personalities and beliefs. We wanted a relatively brief (less than 15 min) and non religious ceremony and what Matthew delivered was moving and heartfelt. Thank you Matthew!!

    Matthew was an absolute gem to find. In no time, it felt as if we were old friends and had asked a longstanding confidante to officiate our nuptials. His intuition in understanding who we are as people was uncanny, as he strung words together in a manner that perfectly accentuated our love and hopes and dreams together. To put it simply, he was the perfect officiant and facilitated the perfect wedding for us. 10/10, beyond highly recommended.

    Book Matthew! He is amazing! Weeks before our wedding, the officiant we had planned to use was in an accident and was not able to attend, let alone officiate, our wedding. I reached out to Matthew via his website and minutes later he called me to see what he could do. That first phone call led to another with the three of us, and then two in-person meetings, with Matthew going out of his way to find a location and time that would work for us. He provided us with so much more than just a beautiful ceremony; he acted as the DJ, with a song list that was perfect for our group, and played it on his own sound system, and acted as the emcee to keep the party flowing smoothly.
    He is great at what he does, and is such a caring and personable individual, that by the day of our ceremony, it felt as though we had known him much longer than 3 weeks. The ceremony that he created was touching, reflected us as a couple, and was able to draw the audience in so that they were really involved in the ceremony, not just watching it. It was evident that he took the time to create a personal ceremony for us, not just something with our names inserted in the right places, as others might do. The ceremony he created really resonated with everyone in attendance and I heard nothing but praise from our guests, many of whom said they had never been to such a touching ceremony before. We wanted a casual wedding, without many of the frills that seem to accommodate other weddings, like bridesmaids and groomsmen, first dances and the like, and Matthew was able to listen to what we wanted and created a simply amazing ceremony. I cannot recommend him more.

    Matthew did a spectacular job officiating our wedding!! It was a quiet intimate ceremony in the mountains and absolutely surpassed our expectations.

    From the moment I first met Matthew (to meet n greet and discuss expectations) I knew he would be the perfect person to conduct our ceremony. Besides being very prompt and professional, he has such a warm endearing personality. Over the few hours we spent at the wedding with him, my entire family commented on how phenomenal he is at his job.

    The ceremony was heartfelt and emotional, and perfectly tailored to our personalities. I couldnt tell you exactly the words that I said in the ceremony, but I can tell you that the way I felt during our ceremony is exactly how every bride and groom should feel, absolutely in the moment and enamored with each other. Matthew was so kind to send us a copy of our vows so that we can frame them as a memento.

    Five stars, we loved him!

    A true Aficionado! That’s how we can sum up Matthew Love. He is very passionate and detail oriented about putting on the best show ever and he will personalize it just for you. He met with my husband and me and helped us plan our Luau wedding reception. He gave us many suggestions that we would have never considered. During the event he personally walked around and met several of the guests. He used this to his advantage to interact and have fun with them during the evening. Matthew played a variety of music from every genre and kept the night flowing. Matthew is a natural and is very funny and witty and he made it a fabulous time for everyone. We are still receiving compliments about Matthew from our guest. He also, calmed down the very nervous bride by reassuring me that he had everything under control and not to worry about a thing. He was right! We highly recommend Matthew Love for your event.

    I was at a friends wedding in which Matthew officiated and he also did the music etc... He was fabulous!!!! Right away, as he started the ceremony I was interested in what he had to say which I'll admit is rare. He was inclusive and respectful of all beliefs and I wasn't the only head nodding and interested. Really can't say enough of the impression he made on me and just about everyone there. He has a beautiful personal touch and I could tell how much he loved doing it and cared about making it perfect which he was 100% successful at. He ran the whole show and was SO MUCH Fun, himself. Makes ME want to get married again, lol.

    At the risk of repeating many of the review you will find for Love's Events the first thing I need to say is that Matthew is truly amazing. His professionalism, knowledge and expertise paired with a kind, engaged, intuitive and loving personality makes him and ideal wedding officiant. In addition, his experience in the events hosting and planning field made him a wonderful host and an exciting and spirited DJ for our event. He is truly an entire compliment of talent rolled into one amazing bundle of energy and compassion. The ceremony he crafted with my daughter and her fiance combined with his own experience and message was perfect in every way for them - definitely customized to their personalities and hopes, wishes and dreams. I am honored to recommend Matthew Love.

    Mathew Love is an amazing officiate! He beautifully conducts the ceremonies with such sincerity it is very touching. As a venue owner, I have observed a lot of officiates and Mathew has such a unique and loving style that it warms your heart. He goes above and beyond helping couples design their ceremony to be their own and provides guidance in planning. He loves to be a part of the process and engages with the families and guests in a fun and memorable way.

    I've been DJING events for 12 years and have never been impressed or blown away by an officiant. Mr. Love was just amazing with the couple, guests and vendors. I was definitely inclined to get his info and pass it on. He really knows how to be a leader. He's funny and endearing. I'd recommend him to officiate, MC, or lead any event. He will NOT disappoint!

    Love's Events helped create an amazing end of year Spring Luau at our school for an end of the year event. He was very responsive to the needs of our school and made it his goal to show everyone a good time!

    Matthew officiated our wedding June 4th, 2016 at a location that was off the grid. This man is a superhero in my book! Matthew could not reach us by phone, due to our location out of cell phone range, no gas, no food. Matthews car broke down in front of the last country store on Hwy9. He explained to the store owner that he had a wedding to get to on Lake Cavanaugh. The store owner closed up the store and drove Matthew the rest of the way to the cabin on the lake. Wow!!!! Matthew did not stop there, he pulled out all the stops to delivered a light hearted and fun yet deeply meaningful marriage ceremony for the bride and groom. He is outstanding!

    Matthew was awesome! He was helpful, thoughtful and engaging throughout the entire process - from helping us think through the tiniest of details for the entire day, to really keeping the big picture in focus. During our weekend he was fantastic at building a real, tangible bond with everyone in our parties and our entire families, he was a hit without stealing the show! Everyone loved his coordination and looked to him, not us, on guidance on next steps - he was crucial in keeping everything moving smoothly. All in all, we couldn't have asked for anything more from either a DJ or an officiant, and we got it all from Matthew. He truly made our wedding day amazing!

    Warning: Long review!

    We knew right off the bat we wanted to work with Matthew after talking on the phone. He provided affordable officiant and dj services. He showed up at all the crazy events we asked him to attend. He got to know us as well as the wedding party. We wanted to establish a closer relationship rather than just our officiant/DJ. He gave his input and helped us plan the wedding too.  He even did our song list because we failed to give him anything. We knew he hated our Mariners and Seattle themed wedding, but he never gave us crap about it. We wanted a fun, non traditional, party feel wedding and that's what we got. 

    Officiating:
    He coordinated how everyone would enter and exit in our own way. It was different and sweet. He did our wedding out in the rain because we really wanted the full Seattle experience even though we knew he truly wanted it inside! His vows wowed our guests. No one ever remembers or pays attention during the ceremony, but the guests raved about the uniqueness. We wanted short and sweet. Our ceremony was less than 15 minutes. We joked about doing a piggy back ride send off, but he said we should do it. We did. It was everyone's favorite part! 

    DJ:
    He provided his own equipment and set up. He was a lot of fun and the guests enjoyed his banter. He did all the music for us. He had things for each age group, genre, etc. He also took requests. He danced as well! Again, people usually don't pay attention to the DJ, but he kept everyone entertained and they loved him. People still talk him. 

    We were told by so many of our guests that our wedding was the best wedding they've ever attended. We're sure Matthew had a big role in that. He was fun, easy going, organized, and entertaining. If we could afford to have our vows renewed every year, we'd call up Matthew in a heart beat! He can do it all!

    My fiance" and I were unique in that I was moving from Australia to America. When we first contacted Matthew, he was both delighted and over the moon to work with us. He was the officiant, emcee and DJ at our wedding. My fiance' and I couldn't have picked a better person and I personally don't believe that our wedding would have been as good without him. I am not kidding when nearly every person came up to use and complimented him on everything. He makes an effort to get to know everyone and really makes it a wondrous occasion. I would gladly go out of my way to recommend him to anyone. So thank you Matthew for an amazing night.

    Matthew Love is an extremely gifted speaker. He has a way of captivating everyone’s attention and making them laugh, smile, and enjoy the special event that is taking place. In my case, he was both my wedding officiant and DJ for my wedding. First time I heard him was a voice message he left on my phone and that was all it took for me to know he was the one. He is extremely personable, great sense of humor, and is such a very sweet person. Professional and very good at what he does. My guest absolutely loved him and could not stop raving about how great he was, I would definitely recommend him to all my family and friends. ♥ Thank you Matthew for being apart of our special wedding day and for making it fun and fantastic! ♥

    As a 54 year old woman, I have been the Bridesmaid several times.. I have also been the guest to many, MANY Weddings of all Faiths, unique locations, and even some unusual pairings.
    When I attended the Murphy- Stevens Wedding, I finally became a participant of the Ceremony. Matthew Love, drew each and every guest into the service. We all felt we were the Witnesses, to the Couple, sharing in their vows to each other. At one point I even checked my pocket , that I might be holding the RING!
    Matthews words were so encouraging. Reminding us all why we come to together to share our lives with that one special person. The importance of true and honest LOVE.
    Almost as if he had remarried all of us again.
    Never have I attended such a warm and loving service.
    I only hope when I celebrate my 25 th Wedding Anniversary in a few years, Matthew Love will be available to officiate , and bring his special warmth and kindness to our day, as he did for the Beautiful Couple who said " I DO"!!!

    Matthew was great, accomodating, he understood immediately what we wanted for our vows. Everyone's feedback from the wedding was that Matthew is by far the best officiant and entertainer they have ever seen.

    Love's Events officiated my wedding this past September. He exceeded the expectations of not only the guess but also the bride. He was professional and courteous at all times. He fulfilled all of our wishes and brought a creative energy that made our ceremony truly unique. I highly recommend Love's Events to anyone that wants an experienced, energetic and affordable option to officiate their event.

    Matthew Love made our wedding amazing. He listened to our desire to give a spiritual message wedding, rather than religious message wedding. We had guest from many faith backgrounds and we wanted our union message to respect all in the room, but be personal to us. Matthew has education and training in spirituality that made him the perfect officiant for our day.

    Matthew knows how to emcee and his public speaking was fantastic. He was able to bring all these people together and give a message in our union that everyone enjoyed.

    We recommend him highly for your wedding, or union event. He is all class and sure knows how to dress for the event. He made our event very classy.

    Matthew Love listened to our request completely. He gave total respect to our choice of spiritual vs. religious ceremony. The room represented all types of faith backgrounds, so we wanted all to feel included, and also understand our view of love and commitment via our personal beliefs. Matthew knew how to pull the entire room together and make a simple ceremony amazing and touching to everyone.

    It was a fantastic evening and Matthew really helped make it perfect.

    The Opening Words and Introduction sets the tone for the wedding ceremony. It’s a statement about the occasion, its importance, the significance to the world as well as the couple getting married. Matthew Love did a wonderful job making all of these points, and we will forever be thankful for having him as our Officiant.
    It was a pleasure working with Matthew Love. Matthew was very attentive and intuitive of how we wanted our ceremony to be performed. He listened carefully to what we wanted and did not want in our ceremony and made great suggestions, as we were so caught up with all the other details of our big day. Matthew made it so easy and took our stress away regarding the ceremony.
    Our friends and family still are telling us how much they liked our ceremony and how much they enjoyed Matthew's opening statements. We highly recommend Matthew for his sensitivity, sensibilities, and connection to the world around us, friends, family, and our part in it.

    Matthew was at the center of one of the most memorable days of my life, and he most definitely added to the specialness of the event! Our friends still talk about how fun our wedding was, and Mr.Love played a big part. He catered to our needs in what my wife and I desired in a ceremony and we all had loads of fun! A person's wedding day can be a little nerve wracking at times, but Matthew's aura and fun loving attitude puts everyone at ease. Thank you Matthew!!

    As a wedding professional I have come across several officiants and I have never met someone quite as exceptional as Matthew Love. His communication and professionalism with the bride & groom, guests, and my staff was incredible! Nowadays, just about anyone can officiate a ceremony, but it takes a certain kind of personality to really connect with the crowd and Matthew surpassed this skill on so many levels. I will be sure to refer my brides to Loves Events as I know he will not disappoint and I hope to have the pleasure of working with him in the near future!

    I booked Lauren from Love & Love after seeing her officiate a friend's wedding. She was so personable and fun, and created a unique and custom ceremony for my friend's wedding, and I knew I wanted the same thing!
    One thing I loved about working with Lauren is that she didn't send me a cookie cutter ceremony. She sent over several ideas, and we worked together to customize it personally for my event. She even wrote beautiful personal section about how my fiancee and I met and fell in love. There were definitely some tears!
    Also her prices were very competitive, and I was so we booked her to attend our rehearsal. Everything went smooth as could be on our wedding day!

    We had Lauren act as the Officiant for our wedding in Seattle. She came recommended by a good friend of ours, and we couldn't have been happier with her.

    Lauren was on top of everything - very professional in her demeanor, really attentive to the type of ceremony my fiancé and I wanted, and had great ideas for readings.

    From talking with her, we found that Lauren has a background both in officiating as well as in wedding planning, so we think that experience was helpful throughout the whole process.

    Having Lauren on our team made the process a lot smother and less hectic, and we'd absolutely recommend her to a friend.

    Lauren of Between Love and Love was the perfect fit for my wedding ceremony.
    Lauren was so helpful throughout the entire planning process.

    Lauren suggested readings, and prepared a fun and creative ceremony that was customized for me and my husband. We couldn't have been happier.

    She has wedding planning experience, and was wonderful at helping us plan our ceremony with a careful eye for the details.

    She was punctual responsive to email and phone calls throughout and we couldn't have been happier with the incredible service she provided us. I would (and have) recommended to all I know who are looking for an officiate.
