Dan is one of the kindest and most gentle individuals that we've ever met, and we could not recommend him more as an officiant! He's the ultimate professional, and he has more than...
enough experience doing weddings to make someone's big day extra special and worry-free. When you first get to meet him, he's soft-spoken, yet powerful, and his charisma immediately disarms any reservations you may have about selecting an officiant online. After meeting him, you then get to see his professionalism on display while preparing together a plan for your ceremony. Meeting with Dan a few times before the wedding day helps to make sure that you're getting exactly what you want from your officiant. He is very knowledgeable and helpful when it comes to planning a ceremony, and he also has the understanding and intelligence to allow each couple to formulate their big day in their own vision. While leading a ceremony, Dan is - simply put - very good at his job. He understands how important his job can be for a ceremony, and he is sure to deliver exactly what you're hoping for. He will help you articulate your ceremony exactly how you wish it to be presented. Not only is he a very confident public speaker, but he's also a genuinely nice person. He is very approachable and kind to family members or wedding guests, and he is comfortable knowing his role on a wedding day. Dan is truly a figure that positively impacted our wedding day, and we were proud to have him officiate our wedding. With endless positive things to state about Dan, we absolutely recommend him as an officiant!

We truly cannot thank Mitch enough for everything he did to help Joe (my stepdad) become the incredible officiant he was on our wedding day. From the very beginning, Mitch’s guidan...
ce, encouragement, and wisdom made such a profound difference. He didn’t just help Joe prepare a ceremony, he helped him tell our story in a way that felt completely authentic and deeply true to who we are.
The ceremony ended up being the absolute highlight of our entire wedding. Every word, every pause, and every laugh felt natural, personal, and full of meaning. It was one of the rare moments in life where everything felt perfectly us, and it’s something we will carry with us forever. We honestly wish we could relive it again and again.
Mitch’s patience, insight, and genuine care allowed us to feel confident, comfortable, and fully present during one of the most important moments of our lives. We are so grateful for the role he played in making our wedding not just beautiful, but truly meaningful. An experience that reflected who we are as a couple in every way.

My husband and I were introduced to Mitch and Jenna Weddings through our wedding planner and could not be more grateful for the recommendation. We were paired with Levi, and from o...
ur very first meeting, it was evident how genuinely invested he was in getting to know us both as a couple and on a personal and spiritual level. Through several meaningful conversations, he gained a deep understanding of who we are and shaped a ceremony that felt uniquely ours.
Levi was meticulous in planning every detail of the ceremony, ensuring it reflected both our values and our vision for the day. His professionalism, calm demeanor, and thoughtful input added a special and memorable depth to the experience.
We highly recommend Levi to any couple seeking an officiant who will create a personalized, heartfelt ceremony and approach the process with sincerity, grace, and genuine care for your journey together.

s team at our wedding. Mitch married our friends. The professionalism and kind hearted words he had through out their ceremony were something I haven't see before. It was like he knew them their whole life! And we can say the same for our officiant Levi! We truly made a friend through the process. We had a 3 virtual meetings with Levi before the wedding. He got to know our story and brought us back to where it all started. Had us remembering why we fell in love. Every relationship has their ups and downs and it can be easily forgotten where it all started. He told our story to our guests which had laughs and good tears while going down memory lane! Levi is so heart felt, a true genuine person who loves to see others in love! Levi is simply amazing!!
The communication during the process was perfect! I'd say book early to make sure you have their services because they are truly that amazing at what they do!

My husband and I got married in December 2024 and were fortunate enough to have had Mitch as our officiant. Choosing our officiant turned out to be a much more challenging decision...
than we anticipated, but now it's hard to imagine having anyone other than Mitch. From the first meeting, it felt very casual and like we were talking to a friend over a coffee or beer. The way he took the personal details of our story and wove them into our ceremony was meaningful and intentional. Several guests shared that they genuinely felt like they got to know my husband and I better throughout the ceremony.
We both appreciated how Mitch offered guidance in all areas as well as genuine enthusiasm and confidence in who we were individually and as a couple. His professionalism and experience shined through in each area of the preparation and the execution while also offering a calmness during a time and day that can induce many nerves (especially for my husband!). We couldn't recommend Mitch enough :)

t at all times as Mitch made sure we knew where we were at in the process and what to expect during our day! We didn't think that it could be "fun" preparing for the ceremony, but we were very surprised. The time we put in with Mitch really showed in our ceremony. The entire approach were as if Mitch had known us for years and was a close friend of ours. He told our story beautifully, and even made sure to incorporate some private Q&A he asked us separately to really tie in "US" in the ceremony. There was more laughter and fun had during our ceremony from us and our guests, which made what can be a nerve wracking day just that much better for us. We incorporated something fun by hiding our rings under guests chairs for them to find, and when we brought the idea up to Mitch he was totally on board with how his part would play into this and how we could make it fun! He did so good during the ceremony with this! We were stopped by countless people that evening asking how we knew Mitch. THAT is exactly what we were hoping to get out of working with Mitch. Any couple would be lucky to work with Mitch and his team in the future!

From the moment we met Mitch at a St. James 1868 open house, we knew he was the one to officiate our wedding. He was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and clearly experienced—some...
one who has seen it all and knows exactly how to guide couples through every step of the ceremony planning with confidence and clarity.
Leading up to the wedding, Mitch was organized and proactive, checking in, answering questions, and offering helpful suggestions. Mitch made the process of getting to know us and planning the ceremony a very fun experience. It felt as if we were gaining a friend in the process. In the week and day of the wedding, his presence was exactly what we needed: calm, kind, and collected. He made us feel comfortable, supported, and genuinely cared for—like we were in the best possible hands.
Brides have a million things to worry about during the wedding experience, but if you choose Mitch, you can truly “set it and forget it.” He was one of the few things we never had to stress about, and that peace of mind was priceless. Our wedding guests were blown away by Mitch, and did not hesitate to let us know during cocktail hour that it was the best officiated ceremony that they have witnessed.
Mitch helped create a ceremony that was heartfelt, meaningful, and uniquely us. We’re so grateful to have had him by our side and would recommend him without hesitation to any couple looking for someone who will handle one of the most important moments of your day with grace, warmth, and expertise.
From the bottom of our hearts… Thank you, Mitch!

He is a great communicator, has a great eye for detail, and worked seamlessly with our venue and DJ to coordinate everything for wedding day. He truly brought our wedding day together and our guests thought so, too. All our of guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the ceremony was and how Mitch did an excellent job. And during the ceremony, Mitch made sure our parties, families, and my husband and I were comfortable and ready to go. To top it all off, he made sure he got us our first drink while we took our first pictures after the ceremony concluded! Look no further for the best officiant!

Him and Jenna have a truly incredible business and we highly recommend them.

guidance to make sure I didn't missing anything... and man, am I grateful I had Jenna. I had no idea what I didn't know, but she did! She was calm, organized, and anticipated every detail. Her checklist was thorough and easily customizable to our event-- I would have missed SO many things if not for her. She was invaluable in communicating with our other vendors, confirming and re-confirming that everyone was on the same page. On the day of the wedding, she was calm and on top of every detail. Every aspect of the day went flawlessly-- largely thanks to her experience and leadership. On a personal note, Jenna and Mitch are incredible people and took the time to genuinely invest in us and our marriage throughout the planning process. I couldn't be more thankful for Jenna and Mitch... you two made our wedding everything we could have asked for:)

ttendees have told me and my now-husband that the wedding ceremony was their favorite of any they've seen. It felt totally "like us" and that is because of Mitch's focus on getting to really know us as a couple (through asking interesting questions, carefully capturing notes on our lives and situations and easy-to-talk to nature). We laughed, lots of our attendees cried happy tears, and everything went absolutely perfectly. We were prepared for how to seamlessly work through the ceremony and everyone felt comfortable as they got ready to walk down the aisle. Massive thank you Mitch & Jenna for all your work and for future brides and grooms, I fully recommend that you use them to make your wedding perfect too. Thank you!!!

received SO many compliments on how great our ceremony was due to the message Mitch put together and the way it was structured. Mitch made sure to ask us at our very first meeting exactly what "vibe" we would want for our ceremony, and he executed it the day of perfectly. We both knew we would be very emotional, so we asked for it to be short, sweet, and light hearted. His message was perfect. Getting to know Mitch and Jenna over the course of the three months leading up to our wedding was wonderful and we always looked forward to our meetings with them. You cannot go wrong hiring the two of them for your wedding day - I refer to them as the wedding day dream team!

But in all seriousness, our wedding was so smooth, organized, and perfect because Mitch and his incredible wife Jenna making it such! Mitch delivered the most meaningful, special ceremony we could have ever imagined then went on to MC and run around all evening for us doing anything and everything to help where he could!
Our family and friends thought we had known Mitch our entire relationship. Little did they know, we just recently got to know Mitch over the last 6 months. And that itself says it all!
Mitch was hands down one of the best decision we made for ourselves with our wedding for all the reasons above and then some! If anyone needs an officiant, definitely contact Mitch Buenger. We promise it’ll be the best wedding decision you make! 💍💕🥰

ients and go above and beyond; they took time out of their busy schedules to meet with us several times leading up to the wedding to help mentor us and really get to know my husband and I. They also made a point to connect with both sets of parents at the rehearsal dinner which was very thoughtful and appreciated by our parents.
Mitch did a fantastic job officiating our ceremony. Our ceremony was truly unique and personalized for us and we received numerous compliments from guests about how great our ceremony was.
Having Jenna as our day of coordinator relieved me from many stresses and allowed me to really enjoy the wedding day. Working with her 1 on 1 during the weeks leading up to wedding, I knew she would be on top of everything come the day of. From coordinating with all the vendors arriving at the venue to helping flip decor from the ceremony to reception space and helping me find an emergency lint roller, she took care of everything and I did not have to worry about a thing.
THANK YOU Mitch and Jenna. You two are amazing at what you do!

His ability to control a room, engage the guests, all whilst keeping the bride and groom as the center of attention was impressive. I would highly recommend Jenna and Mitch to friends, family, or other couples that are interested. If you are still on the fence, I urge you to give them a call and see for yourself. You owe yourself that much!

Our experience with Mitch & Jenna was beyond words. We knew getting married that we would be asking Mitch to proceed over our ceremony after seeing him and Jenna at a previous wedd...
ing we had attended. They both had a radiant glow and captivating faith about them that immediately made us feel comfortable and at ease.
While We live up north, Jenna & Mitch made the process so simple, and went above and beyond to help and mentor us leading up to the wedding. We talked about the bliss, excitement, potential hardships and hard conversations that were ahead in our marriage. You know, those conversations that No one likes to have, but you have to? Well not only did they make these conversations fun, but they made them so easy. So much of what we discussed has gotten us through our first 5 months of marriage in pure happiness.
Their love for one another, God and their family is so evident and it inspired us on our journey. Our first virtual meeting with them was -by far- one of the best moments leading up to our day. One we won't forget. The way they open their hearts and share personal stories really shows you the genuine people they are. We asked for a few specific things - specifically surrounding my very Catholic family in our non-Catholic ceremony- but all were made possible and the entire rehearsal/ceremony truly couldn't have gone better.
The photos of us at our wedding are proof. This duo not only makes your experience behind the scenes great - but the big moments just as special. The service couldn't have been more "us" and we received so much outreach, many calls, messages, etc. all telling us how spectacular the service was.
Mitch adds personal touches from conversations and adds in stories and even included some personal comments Erik and I wrote in private for one another. We laughed, cried, and never felt more close with each other or our Lord ever than in that moment. This wonderful couple did that for us.
Our journey with Mitch & Jenna isn't over. We're dedicated to having a long, faithful and happy marriage - like theirs - and we couldn't have asked for better role models. So we plan on keeping in touch throughout the future! Their guidance, support and love meant and means the world to us.
We cant say it enough... thank you, Jenna & Mitch! You have a special place in our hearts forever!!

ch did a beautiful job of joining my Catholic faith upbringing with my husband's non denominational background. Jenna was everything I didn't know that I needed on my wedding day. You name it, Jenna took care of it! We are so blessed to call these two friends and role models and are so lucky to have had them be a part of our special day. I wish we could get married over and over again and would not change a thing! These two are amazing at what they do!

honest with us as a couple and made us feel very comfortable. My husband and I live in Iowa and we were still able to get a face to face meeting with them before our big day. This really shows they will go above and beyond to get to know you as a couple, and also individually, to make your day as special as possible. I can not even begin to express how amazing the ceremony was too! They are very genuine and down to earth couple and you can tell they love what they do because of their attention to detail and commitment. Highly Recommend!

marriage, as well as amazing parents to their children. Mitch and Jenna took time out of their busy life to truly understand us as a couple. They asked us the hard questions that are bound to come up in a marriage and made us think about how we would handle those situations in the future. They shared their thoughts and stories but also allowed us to think for ourselves to determine how we, as a unique couple, would overcome obstacles and make each other feel loved every day of our lives.
Leading up to our wedding day, Mitch and Jenna checked in with us to see how they could help even outside of their roles. As the officiant, Mitch worked directly with our wedding coordinator, family, and wedding party, to make sure everything went seamlessly throughout the ceremony.
Mitch had a calm presence that made us feel completely at ease throughout the ceremony. The personal stories he added from speaking with us brought tears to our eyes as well as many laughs. Not only were we completely happy with how the ceremony went, but our guests could not stop talking about how wonderful Mitch was, and how personal the ceremony was. It truly fit "us" and we couldn't have asked for anything better.
We are genuinely thankful for Mitch and Jenna and couldn't have asked for a better couple to guide and support us on our journey to marriage. Their love for one another is what every couple aspires for and they couldn't be better mentors in marriage.

st, Mitch’s personality made it extremely easy and fun to comfortably discuss our relationship on a personal level. By the end of our preparation/counseling sessions my wife and I understood each other better and had built a relationship with Mitch that gave our ceremony a truly special personal touch. We cannot thank him him enough.

Mitch and Jenna were the perfect addition to our wedding day. When it came to picking an officiant we had no idea where to start or what we wanted. Mitch and Jenna filled in all th...
e blanks for us and made our ceremony so special and wonderful.
We got to meet and know them over the months leading up to our wedding and they also got to know us. We learned a lot about our relationship prior to our wedding day and were able to have those tough and crucial conversations about what our future would look like, and we felt totally invested in our marriage. Not only were we totally invested in our marriage, but so are Mitch and Jenna. We gained two wonderful new friends and mentors in life and marriage through this journey with them.
Our ceremony was exactly what we wanted it to be. Mitch took out all the guess work on what should be included in the ceremony, and was very flexible to our thoughts and needs for our ceremony as well and was happy to incorporate them all. Since we were able to share personal moments and stories with them, they were included in our ceremony and our families were able to hear our love journey on our wedding day. We still get SO many compliments on our ceremony, and our photos are filled with so many genuine laughs and smiles I can still remember our ceremony and where those smiles came from.
Everything ran smoothly and was absolutely perfect. We can not thank Mitch and Jenna enough for their investment in our wedding day and our marriage.

other and marriage. It may sound cliche to say that, but we really do admire the love and bond that these two have made as they have created their little, awesome family. We were lucky enough to be one of the first weddings that Mitch officiated. Our favorite reason we loved working with Mitch was because he made our wedding day about the two of us and the lifelong commitment we were set to make. The ceremony and dialogue were so thought out and fit within exactly what we wanted. Of course we thought it was a perfect ceremony, (It was!), but when we received numerous compliments about Mitch during the reception and the months after, we knew we had made the right choice in picking him to marry us. And we are so glad we did! We have also had the privilege of seeing Mitch officiate a few other weddings and we still get goosebumps at the way he draws you in with the personal stories and lessons. We could not be happier for Mitch and Jenna on this new journey! We would recommend the Buengers to anyone and everyone! We know that you will love them as much as we do!

ist centered which is exactly what we were looking for when planning our own nuptials. We reached out to Mitch and Jenna to get to know them better and to see if they would be a good fit for our wedding and we are SO glad we did! They took the time to really get to know us as a couple. Through the marriage counseling that they offer we got to know ourselves better too! Mitch and Jenna weren't afraid to ask us difficult questions and how we would handle different life scenarios, which we didn't think about before. Even more, they shared their own personal journey through marriage and children. Throughout the whole wedding planning process they checked in on us and we felt very comfortable reaching out to them too! We were absolutely blown away by our ceremony as were our family and friends. It was truly evident the time Mitch and Jenna put in to make it uniquely us and included references to the Badgers, which we loved! My mom was hesitate at first about us not getting married in a church. Mitch took extra time at the rehearsal to speak with my mom, which she really appreciated. She and the rest of our family and friends continue to mention, 6 months later, how they could feel the love we shared at our ceremony and the personal touches, which I attribute to the spectacular job of Mitch and Jenna! Thank you again!

lped us feel more at ease about marriage, supported, and truly excited for the journey ahead. My husband and I both agreed these meetings really reminded us of "why" we were getting married (which can sometimes get lost in all the planning) and yet is the MOST EXCITING PART, marrying your best friend.
Mitch and Jenna made our wedding ceremony TRULY UNFORGETTABLE. It was so personal, fun, sentimental, and really encapsulated our love story. Our family and friends still describe how “perfect” it was!
Mitch & Jenna continuously checked in throughout wedding planning, helped guide us through the rehearsal, and played a key part in our day running smoothly. I cannot say enough nice things about these two as a couple and about the role they played in our wedding. I would recommend them to anyone! We’re forever grateful and are truly blessed for the lifelong friendship we’ve gained.
