Dave was great to work with! We ended up booking him just two months before our wedding after other plans for an officiant fell through and I was really anxious about it, but Dave did a great job and it all worked out perfectly. He helped us fi...gure out what we wanted to include in our ceremony ahead of time and took the lead on organizing the rehearsal vary naturally and with good humor. My fiance and I are both generally familiar with Charlottesville, but we lived in another state and I was worried about figuring out the logistical details of the cermeoney - who should stand where, how to signal the musician, etc. Dave had it all under control - He is very familiar with the area and knew our venue (the UVA Chapel) very well. He was able to lead the rehearsal with ease and his suggestions on logistical questions were on point. Also important, he has a pleasing speaking voice and a pleasant, non-pretentious manner - perfect for a wedding officiant! I highly recommend him.
