Amazing ceremony

Reverend David was perfect!! He created such a beautiful atmosphere for our ceremony. He came to the rehearsal and calmly helped to settle a down this bride’s nerves. He ran the rehearsal and made sure everyone understood their role in the ceremony. He brought so much love and spirituality to the ceremony. Our guests keep remarking how much they loved the way he officiated the ceremony. You can’t go wrong with having Reverend David officiating your wedding ceremony.

Thank you so much Dave!

First of all if you are looking for a wedding photographer or videographer you have found your people. My wife and I are very busy. My wife works full time and I work over 100 hours a week. We started planning our wedding at the Cork Factory Hotel only 8 months out. We found this amazing power couple of photographers by finding a video they did at a previous wedding at the cork factory hotel. Bodnar was so easy to work with and so flexible and understanding. My wife and I were not able to book the complimentary photo shoot before the wedding (due to our schedule not theirs). Jenn and Ben quickly gave us the option to extend the time they would shoot at the wedding. As for the photos… WOW! Absolutely stunning. One of the reasons we chose Bodnar, was looking through their photos. They captured the important moments but also amazing candid shots. My wife and I are not photogenic at all. Ben and Jenn made it seem like our photos weren’t even being taken. They were constantly giving us poses, making us laugh and walking us through everything. They were also very open to suggestions and were asking if we would like to shoot anywhere. We received around 750 amazing photos of our wedding! As for the timeline, they delivered about a week early of the contracted time. Which is crazy because they have a newborn at home and are in the middle of wedding season (July 2021). We will hopefully be able to update the review to give more well-deserved praise once we get the wedding video. But we aren’t worried or stressed. If you have seen any of their work, you will be blown away! To Ben and Jenn. We could not thank you enough! Words cannot express how perfect you made our day.

We love dave!

Dave exceeded our expectations! He is such a nice and down to earth man, everyone who met him loved him. He kept the ceremony light hearted and really made us feel comfortable. We heard so many compliments from our guests about him. All our bridal party really enjoyed him at the rehearsal, and he made it fun for everyone! They all really enjoyed his personality and we could not have been more thrilled with his services. Right when you meet him you feel like you have known him for years, he is a great guy!

Pastor Dave gave us the most amazing ceremony!

Dennis and I want to take the time to thank you for the most perfect ceremony. Dave made everything easy from our first interaction to our wedding day. Dave made a point to prepare our ceremony exactly the way we wanted it. We were so impressed at how professional and natural he is in front of a crowd. Our guests were so impressed. We were so blessed to have Dave officiate us on our big day! Thank you, thank you, thank you for the most memorable and most perfect day.

Dave was so great to work with and came highly recommended by our wedding planner. He was very passionate and charismatic and really drew the crowd in. From the start we knew he was perfect for our big day and was on the same page as us. He made sure to make the day about us and wanted to incorporate whatever we wished into the ceremony. All our guests loved it as well.

Dave recently officiated a wedding at Historic Ashland, where I work. He has amazing energy and passion! The ceremony was one of the most beautiful we have had at the venue this season and all of the guests were smiling ear to ear the entire time. I will recommend Dave to all of my clients in need of his services. Thank you!

Rev. Dave was an absolutely incredible officiant for our wedding. We really couldn't have chosen a better person for the job. He was very responsive to my first email and promptly answered any and all of my questions. He met with my husband and I a few months before the ceremony so we could get to know him and create a basic outline for the ceremony. He is so easy to talk to and made the entire process of planning the ceremony so easy. My husband and I weren't entirely sure of what type of ceremony we wanted, but after talking with Dave he helped us create the perfect ceremony. Throughout the reception and even weeks afterwards, so many people told me how much they enjoyed the ceremony because Dave made it so captivating, relatable and enjoyable. He was always on time, accommodated us for the rehearsal time and made every minute of the day perfect for my husband and I. He made us feel at ease on a day that is naturally filled with nerves and excitement. Dave, thank you so much for being apart of our day and making it so special. We would recommend Dave to any and every couple who is getting married!

I am the owner of Harmony Hall Estate and Karen’s Catering, LLC., over the past 31 years I have had the honor of helping thousands of couples make their wedding day dreams come true. Selecting the vendors for our wedding day was no easy task! I have worked with some of the best wedding vendors in Central PA and a few that are not so good. So when it came time for John and I to plan our own wedding we had a long list of vendors to consider. Selecting our officiate was one of the most important decisions we had to make. Fortunately for us I have worked with Pastor Dave many times over the past few years. His ability to make each and every wedding ceremony unique and special always amazed me. His demeanor and his presentation always gave me the impression that he was a man that truly believed and loved the message he was sharing and that he knew each and every couple for years. Working with him on a personal level was everything I thought it would be and more! Pastor Dave was open, honest, funny and certainly captured the essence of our relationship. HIs guidance and assurance during the process made both of us feel at ease, as if we were talking to an old friend. I am still receiving compliments about our ceremony! I can’t tell you how many of our guest told us that it was the most personal, touching, inspirational and by far the very best wedding ceremony they had ever attended including their own. Wow.. that says it all. We totally agree! We can’t stop watching our wedding ceremony video! Thank you Pastor Dave for making our wedding day dreams come true. Karen & John

Rev. Dave was wonderful at our rehearsal and wedding! We couldn’t have chosen anyone better to officiate our wedding! He was funny, engaging and charming! He meets with you to go over every detail of the wedding ceremony months before so you are aware of everything! He was available by email and phone anytime and was very responsive! He took all of our suggestions and ideas and helped us put together a great ceremony with vowels we chose. He even allowed us to go over the rehearsal more than once to make sure everyone was comfortable! He made the nerves of the day go away with ease and our ceremony turned out perfect! I can’t thank Dave enough and I’d recommend him to any couple!

Dave was an incredible officiant!!! I'm a little late in reviewing Dave as our wedding was 11/11/16. I will never forget how smoothly our rehearsal and ceremony went because of Dave's ability to keep everyone's attention, his kindness, and his calming demeanor. He has an excellent sense of humor and is extremely confident in his skills and abilities. Our guests loved him. Our friends who are getting married this year even asked for his info. after the wedding! I promise you your ceremony will be anything but boring if you hire Dave as your officiant. And, if you have stage fright like I do, he will help you stay completely cool, calm, and collected. Thanks again Dave, you made our wedding day so special!

Rev. Dave was great at rehearsal and our ceremony. He understood what we wanted and completely come through. He kept our ceremony entertaining as well as a touch of humor. You can tell from meeting him that this is his passion and he gives his all into every ceremony he performs and our ceremony was no different. We had guest completmenting him and the ceremony all night asking where we found him saying he was very cool and did a great job.

He was understanding and listened to everything we said carefully. Everyone at the wedding loved him and my family is still talking about his charisma and joy during the ceremony! He kept things interesting but meaningful. Thanks, Dave, for being part of our beautiful wedding day!

Dave is absolutely amazing! I have been to lots of weddings, but the officiant was never as incredible as Dave! He was engaging and well spoken. He took our wishes and carried them out even better than I could have imagined. He is well spoken, interesting and takes control of the situation. We opted to add a hand-fasting ceremony, a rose ceremony, edited standard vows and added a reading, all was no issue at all. He even steps out of the way for the first kiss so you don't see his head in the photos! He was incredible, even checking in with myself and my now husband throughout the process, (including day of) to help us stay calm. I only hope that I can attend one of his ceremonies again someday!

David was recommended by The Cork Factory Hotel where we held our wedding. We met him a couple months before the wedding to go over everything we wanted to and not to include for our big day. That day we knew he was the one to marry us. He made us feel so comfortable and definitely has a great sense of humor. On our wedding day he was spectacular! Made everyone laugh but took his job very seriously, which is exactly what we wanted. Definitely something you need when feeling extremely nervous on your big day! We would 100% recommend him!!!

He is lively, fun, and charismatic. He was able to keep all the guests engaged during the whole ceremony. I am still hearing compliments from guests. Thanks for everything!! Highly recommend to everyone!!!!

Pastor Dave was tremendous!!! I, the MOB, found Wedding Dayz online. After reading about his background, I gave my daughter his number. He met with us prior to the wedding to ensure everything would be as we wanted, made suggestions (one of which we used in the Ceremony), and added just the right amount of 'humor' to make everyone feel comfortable.
My daughter and husband wrote their own Vows. My daughter's were on index cards...she accidentally left a card or two behind, so there came a moment when she became a little tense. I heard Pastor Dave, quietly, say twice to her, "speak from your heart, speak from your heart." My daughter took a deep breath, and did just that! It was all so very beautiful!
Pastor Dave was very organized and professional, as well. I would recommend him to anyone that for one reason or another was not able to have the Ceremony at their own church. (Our's was at an outside venue) 5-Star, Plus!

Rev. DiRaddo is fantastic. We were not really sure what we wanted our ceremony to be like. We definitely want it to be lighthearted and all about us and our family and friends. Rev. DiRaddo gave us lots of suggestions on what we could do and made the whole process unbelievably easy and fun. He is just the most awesome person. I am so very glad we choose Rev. DiRaddo as our officiant. Hands down one of the BEST choices I made in the entire wedding planning process.

Hands down the best decision we made for our wedding day was to sign with David! He is really great at engaging a crowd as well as combining the perfect amount of humor and love into the ceremony. All of our friends and family are still commenting how great the ceremony was several weeks after the wedding.

Reverend Dave DiRaddo is a perfect choice for a wedding ceremony of any kind! I was so nervous about my ceremony because of many different religious beliefs in the guests who were attending the wedding. Dave did an amazing job at staying neutral with prayers while still making it meaningful for everyone. He did something very special in the beginning of the ceremony here he involved the guests to vow to support and encourage us in our relationship and had them say "I do". I can not even count how many people loved how he ran the ceremony and multiple people said that his words were a good reminder for their own personal relationships. Very impressed overall with Reverend Dave Diraddo and I would highly recommend him to anyone!

When looking for an Officiant, we never thought that we would have hit the jackpot as big as we did!!!! My husband and i were looking for a civil service, and Rev. David Di Raddo respected that! He was fun, upbeat, and kept our guests attention the entire time!!!! he was thorough, and was sure to explain everything he was about to do! It is a week later, and our guests are still complimenting us on our Officiant!!! Not your typical feedback!!! I am very proud that our wedding day was a great experience for our guests just as much as us, and Rev. David Di Raddo truly played a big part in that!

What an incredible individual! We feel honored to have had Dave officiate our wedding. When we initially met Dave we knew immediately he was a pro at what he does. After officiating hundreds of weddings he truly knows what works and doesn't work. We gave him our ideas and he was able to create a beautiful wedding ceremony. During the rehearsal he made the entire wedding party laugh and feel at ease for the big day. Dave was spectacular during the wedding! The crowd laughed and cried, but more importantly felt they were part of our ceremony. We got compliments all evening of our ceremony. Thank you Dave!!

Rev Dave was amazing. he was truly the talk of the wedding. He made our ceremony perfect. So easy to work! From our first meeting we just knew that he would make this day special. He kept things traditional and religious like we asked but with a sense of humor to keep everyone entertained. He even took a few moments in between things to speak quickly and quietly to us to make sure we were doing OK. He has a gift in what he does and we enjoyed him very much. If you looking for a great officiant this is your man

At rehearsal i was extremely worried things were going to be a mess, due to having our dogs and 4 children in the wedding. Reverend Dave reassured me it would all be okay! During the ceremony Reverend Dave kept things energetic and kept everyone happy and most importantly, awake! Thank you Reverend Dave!

Reverend Dave DiRaddo did an exceptional job of officiating our wedding. From the first time we had met with him, up until our wedding ceremony Rev. DiRaddo was professional, personable, and easy to communicate with. His suggestions, guidance, and leadership through the consultation, email exchanges, phone conversations, and at the rehearsal helped to keep us relaxed. He did a perfect job of blending religious and secular messages into the ceremony. We received so many compliments from our friends and families on how impressed they were with Rev. DiRaddo. We would highly recommend Reverend DiRaddo to make your wedding ceremony memorable.

Reverend Dave was absolutely amazing! He has such a passion for what he does and it shines through in his personality! From the moment we met him for a "consult" we knew he was the one for us. So down to earth and added enough humor to make everyone feel special. He helped with the vows, the rose ceremony and a wine blending ceremony. He will help as little or as much as you want. He works around whatever you imagine for your special day. Our family also loved him and his way of makin everyone feel comfortable. It was a very special ceremony. We even had to move inside because of rain and the whole time while I was making the decision to wait or go inside, he was with me and the girls and was ready to do whatever I wanted to do. He was just wonderful and I would definently recommend him. You will NOT regret it!!!

Man, what an awesome guy. Rev. Dave is amazing at what he does. We met him once for about a half hour to an hour to discuss how the ceremony will go. He gave us suggestions and feedback, but ultimately let us decide how we'd like our ceremony to be. He was incredibly organized, professional, and personable and I walked away from our first meeting knowing we made the right choice in hiring Rev. Dave. He ran the rehearsal without a hitch and made things very relaxed for the day of the ceremony. He provides a calming presence on the day of the wedding-which is very nice. The ceremony was lovely and everyone appeared to enjoy it. There were even some very funny and touching moments. I'd recommend him to everyone. He's so warm and just made our day so wonderful. We thank you Dave!!!!!

Reverend Dave was a Godsend (literally!) for our wedding! We had been planning a Catholic ceremony with my priest, but when things fell through and our priest cancelled on us about 2 1/2 weeks before the wedding, I was a wreck! I searched online and found Reverend Dave and put in an info request with an explanation of how desperate we were feeling because of what had happened. He called me almost immediately and only a few minutes into the conversation, after he assured me he was available on our day and would love to help us out, I really felt like it was meant to be. Things were obviously very rushed for us as far as planning out the ceremony, but Rev. Dave was extremely accommodating and helpful. He is such a professional and it is clear to everyone who has seen him preform a wedding that he is very passionate about it as well. He injected the perfect amount of humor and reverence into the ceremony and incorporated some more personal touches for us, like the sign of the cross for my catholic family. Our guests loved him as well and everyone we spoke to about the ceremony said that they thoroughly enjoyed it and that their attention was caught the entire time, and most thought that we had known him personally for years!

I can't thank Reverend Dave enough for helping us to have a beautiful wedding ceremony that we will remember forever. He was truly a blessing and I'm sure will make any wedding that much more special.

We found out about Reverend/Pastor Dave by recommendation from one of our trusted vendors and are SO glad we did! Dave was a real joy to work with and an absolutely amazing orator. He made the ceremony planning very easy, offered suggestions, was professional, and made sure that the ceremony was focused but personal. We got many compliments on our officiant and his exuberance, regardless of our guests' denomination. You're in good hands with Dave and will not regret working together.

Rev. Di Raddo was an amazing officiant and I am so glad we went with him. He is very responsive and accommodating and had great suggestions for us throughout the whole process. From the moment we met him, he made us feel comfortable and we knew that he was exactly what we were looking for in an officiant. He was funny and sincere and several people commented afterward how much they liked him. Rev. Di Raddo told us we were his 599th wedding but he had the same passion as though it was his first. He clearly loves what he does and is fantastic at it.

Pastor Dave was the first and last person that we met with for our wedding. We first heard of him through a recommendation and after meeting with him, we were sold! He made the process so easy and thoughtless that I could not have asked for anymore. Only needed one meeting with him and at most three emails after that to confirm other information. He completely ran our rehearsal and everything went smooth. Our wedding ceremony was everything that we could have asked for. He did an amazing job! Everyone could not stop talking about him. We highly recommend Pastor Dave for anyone else that is interested!

Fantastic!!! Reverend Di Raddo was more than amazing for our wedding last weekend (5/3/13)! From the first time we contacted him, he was very responsive to all emails and requests for information. He worked with us since we are from dc and traveling to Lancaster, and met with us at a diner off 83 to discuss wedding details. From the second we met him we immediately felt comfortable. He told us that he had been asked and would do anything from full ceremony Christian garb to not even saying the word "God." Being that my husband isn't very religious we opted for somewhere in between, more towards the latter. He continued to be responsive even after paying (even gave us an active duty military discount), reviewed each of our personally written vows, and gave us feedback. He also met us at the hotel the night before to go through a quick rehearsal. During the ceremony he was extremely helpful (almost had a rain issue!!), was loud enough for all ceremony guests, made us feel completely comfortable and relaxed, and also was quite funny. He even handed us a handkerchief when we were emotional. By far the best!!!!!!

Dave is the best officiant!! We have had so many compliments and will make your wedding ceremony very personalized to the couple! I saw him at 2 different weddings and our wedding was different and true to my husband and I! We had an outdoor wedding with 130 guests and the guests in the 14th row could hear him perfectly without a mic! Thank you Dave! - Mr. and Mrs. Hippensteel

It was a pleasure working with Reverend David DiRaddo for our wedding. We were recommended to him by a close friend who is also the event coordinator at The Inn at Leola Village that said, "You may not know what color your flowers will be, what dinner choice you'll have, or what yoyr bridesmaids will wear... But you should definitely consider Rev. DiRaddo, you'll be so happy that you do." And she was right!! For on our first contact, he was very personable and genuine. He honored that it was OUR wedding, and not just another wedding. He listened and made our ceremony very much about us. He really enjoys what he does and it shows. I have heard such great feedback from our guests as well, they said he was a perfect fit for our perfect day :)

Rev. Dave was most professional and thoughtful. Almost everyone who attended the wedding asked about Rev. Dave and had nothing but positive comments about how he conducted the ceremony. For my part as the groom I felt he did an outstanding job with the entire ceremony and kept it light as well as keeping the theme and the focus on the ceremony itself. He made the attendees feel as if they also were part of the ceremony and they play a part in keeping our love alive between my beautiful bride and I for all our years after the ceremony was completed. If you want a memorable ceremony I would highly recommend Rev. Dave to be your minister at your wedding.

David was everything we were looking for in an officiant. When we met him, he immediately put us at ease. We wanted a simple ceremony that involved God but didn't cater to a specific religion. Davids voice projected well so we didn't need a microphone. He kept everyone involved in the ceremony and made both my husband and myself feel at ease. Thanks David!

He is very accommodating, quick to answer any questions and truly contours your ceremony to your own specific requests and taste.

We chose Dave as our wedding officiant and we are SO glad we did! Dave was such a huge help from start to finish. He had told us in our initial meeting that he makes a ceremony memorable and special... and he was so right. Since our wedding day, so many of our guests have reached out to us to say how awesome our ceremony and officiant was, and how they will never forget it. (Also, we've gotten a lot of "How did you find him?! He was so great!!"). He ran the rehearsal seamlessly and efficiently, and on the wedding day he helped calm our nerves. From the moment you meet him, you'll know he's your guy. My sister is getting married next year and she booked him as soon as she heard how much we loved him.. and they are so happy with their decision. Pick him, you won't regret it!!

David was an awesome addition to our wedding, we couldn't have asked for a better officiant! He let my husband and I be ourselves and was very accommodating to our unique requests. He was very helpful with everything leading up to the wedding as well. He made the wedding seem effortless and just fun!!
Thank you so much David!!!

Dave Di Raddo was absolutely wonderful! From the moment we met with him for our first consultation we knew he would be perfect. He was very easy to reach when needed and he was accommodating when I needed to change a few things regarding the ceremony. The rehearsal was a breeze and we all felt comfortable and ready to go for the big day. Dave has an incredible way of lightening the mood and putting everyone at ease. That was definitely appreciated the day of the wedding! After the wedding I had so many people comment on how great he was. My husband and I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone!!

Reverend David was absolutely amazing. He took what I had imagined my wedding would be like and made it happen in real life. He listens to what you say and then is able to translate it into what he does. My husband and I needed someone to officiate our wedding and were struggling finding the right person. I found him online and was nervous to meet him for the first time. He has not been with us for 2 minutes and I KNEW he was the one for us! Several guests stopped to tell me how much they enjoyed our ceremony. They said you Reverend made this ceremony all about you. Then he said he has never cried at a wedding and that our ceremony was done so beautifully that he cried like a baby. It is all thanks to Reverend David! We can never repay you or say thank you enough for making our big day absolutely perfect!

Wow - what an amazing person, and what an amazing ceremony he provided for us. Dave will not disappoint! He was so professional and had the perfect amount of humor for the ceremony - along with some amazing advice. If you want the most beautiful, memorable ceremony, and someone who will make you feel so comfortable standing at the altar, Dave is your guy. The moment you meet with him, you'll see exactly what I mean! The day of our rehearsal, some members of the BP were stuck in traffic and i was totally stressing out - but he calmed me down instantly and made me feel on top of the world. We first met him very casually at a restaurant, and he walked us through the entire ceremony and let us know right away that it is all about us, and what we want. I would suggest Dave to everyone and will defintely be contacting him for our vow renewal in a few years!

We knew from the moment we spoke with Rev. Dave that he was the right guy! He was so energetic, fun and genuine! We were so worried we would get chocked up because we wrote our own vows, but during the ceramony he kept things so light hearted, fun and relaxed that we both breazed right thru them! After the wedding so many people complimented us on the ceremony and told us it was the most fun and original ceremony they've ever witnessed and that the Rev was amazing!! Would def recommend to ANYONE! :)

What can I say about Rev. Dave besides we love him! We met with him a year before our wedding, walked out and looked at each other and said, that’s the guy! We pretty much wanted to book him on the spot! After our initial consult, we didn’t have too much to do with him until closer to the wedding, but we never had to be worried about the ceremony itself. We knew from our meeting that he was going to rock our ceremony and it would be fine! At the rehearsal, he put everyone of us in such a good, happy, relaxed mood, and had all our family and friends saying they couldn’t wait to hear how he did the ceremony the next day! On the day of the wedding, he mixed a casual, fun vibe with a formal ceremony that had all our guests switching from laughter to tears. Our guests kept telling us they had never been to a ceremony so entertaining and captivating- and my sister and her fiancé are even trying to book him for their wedding now! Everything he says is honest and heartfelt, and he was the perfect person we could have chosen to marry us!

We absolutely loved Dave! From the first meeting that we had with him, we knew that he would be the one to perform our ceremony. Dave was easy to contact, very professional, and had a fantastic personality. My husband and I were not having a 'traditional' ceremony in many ways, so we didn't want our officiant to be traditional either. Dave was perfect, he brought just the wittiness and modern twist to our ceremony that we were looking to accomplish. I received many complements from guests that they enjoyed the ceremony best of any wedding that they have been to, and one couple even said they would love to do their vow renewal with him. I would recommend him to anyone in the area!

We used Dave DiRaddo as our officiant for our January wedding at the Capitol Rotunda. He was so helpful in offering suggestions for planning a special wedding perfectly suited to us. He suggested a sand pouring ceremony as a way to include my husband's 4 year old daughter in the ceremony and it was simply beautiful. His message was short but very meaningful, and his voice was loud enough to be heard by everyone in the Capitol Rotunda setting. We have already recommended him to other people we know who are getting married soon. I would HIGHLY recommend Dave - we were very pleased that we found him and that he was part of making our wedding day so special.

My husband and I were living in Michigan and wanting to get married by a Christian minister but didn't have any idea how to find someone we liked from a distance. Wanda and the Gettysburg Hotel recommended Reverend Dave DiRaddo and after talking on the phone, made the trip to Gettysburg to meet with Rev. DiRaddo. We immediately hit it off. He has a great sense of humor and was very easy to talk to. All the way up to the wedding he was a steady calming force to ease the jitters and nerves. The day of the wedding, he had everything ready and the service was perfect. All of my family, to include my Catholic parents and my husbands Athiest parents loved Rev. DiRaddo. I would totally recommend him to anyone looking for a minister for their ceremony. Thanks Dave. We loved you. And as we look back on our ceremony, there isn't anything we wish we had done differently.

He delivered a fun and informative dress rehearsal that put everyone at ease for the next day. The ceremony service he delivered surprised us all and it was so touching.

I cannot say enough about Rev. Dave!!!! He made my ceremony PERFECT!!!! My husband and I are not very religous and Rev. Dave made our cermemony just for us!! He focued on friends and family, which was perfect for us!!!! He responded to all my emails with in a day and had great advice for all my questions. He really made me feel at ease!!! He calmed me right before the ceremony when I was "freaking out". Also he went above and beyond for us. We had an issue with the rain and our marrage licence and Rev. Dave answered my phone call at 11:00 at night on Easter Sunday to reassure me that I could get a new licence. He then took the time out of his schedule to sign our new licence. Truly a GREAT guy!!!!! Many guestes came up to me after the wedding and complimented him on his enegry and great words at our ceremony. He also is a great price and very flexible!! Thank you Rev. Dave!!!!!!

Dave was incredible! The officiant is obviously one of the most important parts of the wedding. After meeting with him once at Border's we knew he would be performing our ceremony. My husband and I are not overly religious. Dave performed an interfaith ceremony touching briefly on both our religions. After our initial meeting I had emailed him a few times for guidance, we spoke on the phone a few times and then rehearsal day was here and we met with him for the second and last time before the wedding. I can't express enough how amazing he was... so easy going and great to work with. Sometime between our first meeting and our wedding he had mentioned he passed a milestone... he just performed his 300th wedding. Thanks again Dave for making our wedding day so special.

Dave was just what we wanted out of an officiant. We didn't want it to be very religious but still have a traditional touch. He meets with you (as many times as you'd like) to get to know you and plan just how you want the ceremony to go. He is a wonderful public speaker and has wonderful, thought out things to say. Lots of friends and family commented on how much they enjoyed the ceremony. Not only is he good at speaking he also makes you feel comfortable and at ease. He did an exceptional job at our wedding and his message will last us a lifetime.

My husband I were both in my sisters wedding 2 years ago and Wedding Dayz performed their wedding ceremony. It was such a beautiful ceremony that we both decided when we got married, we had to use Wedding Dayz to perform our wedding ceremony as well.

Dave has a very special way of including your guests in the ceremony and making it all about you and making your special day SPECIAL and memorable.

After the wedding, several people came to us and said how beautiful and touching the ceremony was! We would highly recommend Wedding Dayz as they did an outstanding job and helped make our day even more memorable.

Dave was an invaluable asset to our wedding. Not only did he marry us, but he made us feel at ease about the whole experience, which was starting to get very stressful! Dave was very accommodating and generously allowed us to have our wedding at his home. He knows what to do and he was comfortable and confident in advising us. Dave is a wonderful person! I wouldn't hesitate to HIGHLY recommend having Dave participate in your special day! Thanks so much, again, my friend. : )

Dave was a Godsend! As I was looking for the right person to marry us I knew instantly that he was who I wanted. We had a very small ceramony but Dave treated every detail as if he was marrying royalty. He was sincere, professional, and the words he spoke for us were perfect. He made sure that our day was exactly as we wanted it. We could not have made a better choice. If you are looking for the perfect person for your ceramony, look no further you have found him.

Mrs. Katherine and Mr. Daniel Strait

Planning a wedding entails a lot and can be very stressful. There's a lot to do and lots to think about. Hiring Dave DiRaddo to be our officiant was by far the smartest thing that we could have done. He was very fun, personable, comforting and answered any and every question that we had. He listened to us and made very good suggestions when we were unsure of what to do about certain things. Our ceremony was exactly the way that we wanted it to be. Dave put us at total ease with his likeable personality. All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed him as well. I will recommend Dave to everyone that needs an officiant!

David was such a wonderful officiant for our wedding. Our wedding was so unique and true to me and my husband's personalities. He made our ceremony special by sharing our relationship with all of our guests in a way I never thought imaginable.

Rev Dave was responsive & courteous. He was most interested that we have the ceremony we wanted. He was professionally dressed, on time, and executed his role perfectly.

Reverend DiRaddo was the perfect choice for our ceremony.
He is very professional but fun and warm at the same time. He took good control of our ceremony, and no one was bored. He even made the crowd laugh a little!
He was flexible when we wanted a "different" unity ceremony, using crystals instead of sand, and gave us good feedback on our vows, which were self-written.
He met with us at a diner for an hour and a half to get to know us and plan our ceremony, and he is very easy to talk to, not awkward at all.
He is not judgemental, very encouraging and was worth the price of $400, which included the meeting at the diner, the rehearsal and the ceremony.
I have been to a few weddings where the ceremony was beautiful but BOOOORING, and Dave kept the crowd entertained and happy through our ceremony. Don't go cheap on this part of the experience, your officiant sets the mood of your entire day!

Thanks Dave!!

Dave makes you feel at ease and is a great listener. He communicates up until the day of the ceremony. Many people at the wedding thought that his readings and just his overall service was absolutely wonderful. I think he is just a great person and I would HIGHLY recommend him.

We were so very pleased with the service Dave DiRaddo from Wedding Dayz provided to us on our wedding day. His enthusiasm and personality made the ceremony just perfect! He kept our guests engaged during the entire ceremony and left us with a happy and complete feeling! He officiated our wedding exactly how we envisioned it...maybe even better!
Thank you Dave for a very memorable wedding ceremony! I highly recommend Wedding Dayz to all brides and grooms!

I recently used Dave's services for my wedding ceremony last month. He is very reasonably priced compared to others in this area, one of the reasons we looked into him. In addition, we decided on him to be our wedding officiant because as a nonreligious couple, we did not have someone in our lives who could do this for us and also keep it in line with our values. We met once at a diner to discuss the type of wedding ceremony that we wanted to have. For us, short and simple was also perfect. Prior to leaving however, we made it very, VERY clear that we were not religious and did not want any religious terms used during our ceremony. He said he completely respected this and would not mention "God" or any other term. Our rehearsal went well enough, though he seemed disappointed because initially we were going to have him "feed us" the lines for our vows, and we later decided to read them on our own. He expressed to us that he really wanted to read them for us, but we hand wrote ours and it felt silly to not read them ourselves. The wedding ceremony was nice. He did not have a microphone due to the location, and still he was loud enough that everyone could hear him. Many people came up to us after and told us that this was one of the most beautiful services they had been to. Unfortunately, this was ruined for my husband and I because he DID mention God three times during the service. This despite promising us that he would NOT. Thankfully, not many people in our families know that we are not religious, so this went largely unnoticed. All things considered, I would not use his services again (not that there will be a next time!!), but I would consider recommending him for anyone who is Christian or Catholic. Nonreligious couples, please consider someone else. This is your only day. Go with someone who wants to make it perfect for you, whether it is in line with their beliefs or not.

Totally disappointed. He waited for two days before my wedding to find a replacement for him because he didn’t realize how much time it took to get from my ceremony to his next. He books so close together. Stressed me out beyond belief and I never felt so betrayed before.

-Multiple attempts to meet up with me? Such a lie, I had to contact you constantly to try and meet up with you.
But thanks.
