Simply the Best

We were so fortunate to find Danielle to be our officiant! We cannot begin to express how grateful we are for the incredible job she did. From start to finish, Danielle was an absolute professional who made our special day absolutely perfect!!

Danielle has a remarkable talent for bringing the love story to life. Her words were beautifully crafted and heartfelt, making our ceremony truly special and touching. It felt as if she had known us for years, capturing our love as a couple with warmth and sincerity.

Beyond her perfection in crafting our ceremony, Danielle was exceptionally organized and made the entire process seamless. Her caring and considerate nature was evident from the very beginning, and she took the time to understand our vision for the ceremony, ensuring that every detail was just right. On the day of the wedding, she worked exceptionally well with our vendors to ensure everything ran smoothly. Her professionalism and calmness put everyone at ease.

Danielle truly has a beautiful way with words and an undeniable talent for making a wedding ceremony perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant to marry us and bring our love story to life. If you're searching for someone who will make your wedding day unforgettable, Danielle is the perfect choice.

Thank you, Danielle, for making our day so incredibly special.

Danielle is amazing ! Book your ceremony with her !!!

I can’t say enough great things about Danielle ! She is absolutely amazing ! We knew within 5 minutes of speaking with her that she was the perfect officiant for our wedding. Danielle really took the time to get to know us as a couple. She is extremely organized , which eliminated any stress couples may go through when planning a wedding. Our ceremony was absolutely perfect ! We included readings from her vast library of literature to choose from. We included a handfasting , which Danielle was very familiar with. It was everything we dreamed of and more. Danielle understand who were as a couple and how we wanted to represent that to our guests. We received so many compliments how beautiful our ceremony was and how incredible Danielle was. All our guests said they’ve never been to ceremony so beautiful before. And we owe that all to Danielle. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Danielle. If I could give more then 5 stars , I would ! All our best to you Danielle Robyn & Steven

Danielle is Simply The Best

If you’re looking for an Officiant/Celebrant that’s not super mainstream or super religious but also not boring - please please please consider meeting with Danielle. The first time we met with her we were on a zoom call with her for four hours just talking about love and life and our relationship and we had absolutely no doubts that she was going to be our officiant. After we booked her she sent us each private questionnaires and used that to form a beautiful ceremony script. Working with her was my favorite part of wedding planning - she helped us remember the root of all of this; our love for each other. Everyone came up to us after the ceremony telling us how beautiful it was and asking if she was our friend because it felt so personal. Highly recommend.

Danielle is a natural charmer, a keen-eyed scribe and a delightful storyteller. She was meant for wedding ceremonies the way sails are made for the wind. There are probably better metaphors to describe the unique alchemy of Danielle's work in the wedding world; may many couples get to experience working with her.
