I could not describe how enjoyable Doug made our wedding experience. He was professional, flexible, and accommodating! Did I say accommodating... we had scheduled our wedding on a Wednesday. Little did we know a hurricane was scheduled to hit. ...

He rescheduled us without a flinch, when I know he could have easily said no. Loved the flexibility of creating our own ceremony that fit US perfectly. Doug was also respectful of COVID and is willing to accommodate to any concerns. Highly recommend!! 5 stars!

ur personalities with a mixture of humor, sarcasm, and sentimental tidbits. Doug delivered all we could have hoped for and more! A few weeks before the ceremony, Doug asked us and some of our closest friends to complete a questionnaire about our relationship. He took the information from the questionnaires to create a beautiful, unique, and personal ceremony. Throughout the 30 minute ceremony, Doug managed to make us all laugh, cry, and laugh some more...it was truly perfect! I would strongly recommend Doug to any couple looking for a ceremony to remember!

to our ceremony was evident. It was as important to him as it was to us. It was a very small ceremony. Just the two of us and Doug. The ceremony was at 6pm & he stayed for cake & champagne til 9pm! You can spend hours reviewing other officiants, but you'd be wasting your time. Doug is family now. I cannot imagine my wedding day without Officiant Doug standing in front of us joining our love together. He will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you Doug!
