    The Perfect Fit!

    We are so happy to have worked with Doug to officiate our wedding. He anticipated all of our needs and questions, and he went the extra mile by preparing a list of all the tasks we’d have to complete before and after the wedding. He was a wonderful presence at the altar, and many guests commented on how much they enjoyed his parts in the ceremony. Doug is very flexible and will meet you where you’re at. We wanted a brisk, light ceremony (without losing the emotion/meaning) and he was happy to accommodate, even rolling with some curveballs the wedding party threw in. However, he’d certainly be able to work with any style of ceremony chosen, traditional or otherwise. We’re confident he’d be a great addition to anyone’s special day.

    Great officiant!

    Doug was a pleasure to work with! During our first meeting, he explained everything in great detail and continued to help us with every step along the way. He was flexible with us when we needed to postpone due to the pandemic. He performed our ceremony with every detail exactly how we wanted. He has a great personality that made our ceremony enjoyable for everyone. I would highly recommend Sharing Common Ground!

    Great experience and highly recommend!

    Doug was great to work with. He sat down with us prior to the wedding to get to know us and provide us with all the resources and information needed in order to make the ceremony how we envisioned. He answered all of our questions and did an excellent job during the wedding. He was professional yet kept things personal and light hearted. We’d definitely recommend him!

    Genuine, reliable, thorough!

    We would highly recommend Doug! He took the time to sit down and meet with us, which helped break the ice and get to know us as a couple. We could tell he loved what he does and gave off a great energy. My husband and I knew right away we wanted Doug to officiate our special day. Then Covid happened and our wedding plans began to change, pushing the date back and changing venues. Doug was very flexible and quick to respond to emails with our ever changing plans. He is reliable and thorough and will help customize your perfect ceremony. We got a lot of compliments from our family and friends about what a great job he did, that he was a great speaker, very genuine. So take our advice and reach out to Doug! You will not be disappointed.

    One of a kind officiant

    My husband and I wanted an officiant who would make our ceremony more light versus serious. Doug delivered exactly this. He cracked some jokes and made this experience very easy and relaxed. He met with me to discuss how we wanted the ceremony to go. We were also able to completely customize our ceremony. He acted as if we had known him forever and I could not have been any happier with him.

    Wedding 6/8/19

    My husband and I are so happy we chose Doug to be our officiant. The first time we met with him we knew we were making the right decision because he actually took the time to get to know us. He was very professional, friendly, and was very quick to respond to our emails with any questions. We would highly recommend him for anyone who needs an officiant!

    Doug was a pleasure to work with! He took time to meet with us, get to know us, and gave us many examples. He is friendly, professional, and we felt comfortable with him right away! He was quick to respond to emails and put everything together in an outline for us! Our ceremony turned out beautiful and he kept it lighthearted and fun despite sirens that were going off outside nearly the entire time. I would definitely recommend Doug!

    Doug was truly amazing!! He met with my husband and I and discussed, in detail, what his, and our, expectations were. He made our ceremony purely what we wanted it to be, short and sweet. I would highly recommend him to anyone!!!

    Doug was amazing. He took a long time to meet with us in person at the beginning. I felt like we all got to know eachother so the ceremony would feel personal. He gave us some amazing ideas about the ceremony. He was always responsive and accommodating. He really helped us develop the type of ceremony we wanted and incorporated all of the symbolism that was important to us. We could not use a mic because of wind, and he spoke clearly, loudly and everyone could hear him. I cannot even begin to tell you how many compliments we got on our ceremony and Doug's guidance was a huge part. He was also prompt, organized and prepared.

    Doug did an excellent job officiating our wedding ceremony! He was very professional and courteous. He took the time to get to know me and my husband so that our ceremony could be a little bit more personal. He was willing to work with us for whatever we needed and he was able to offer a lot of suggestions. He also did a great job coaching the wedding party during the rehearsal. I would definitely recommend Doug to anyone looking for an officiant!

    Working with Doug was an amazing experience. He was flexible and understanding. He was detailed and had a great sense of humor too! The communication was great - especially with lots of changes and questions on our end. The rehearsal dinner and ceremony could not have been any better! The pace and tone of the whole ceremony was exactly how we pictured. Thank you for making our day special :-)
