We had Reverend Dana Hardy-Bingham for our Pittsburgh Wedding in June 2026. From the first intro phone call we had with her, to our in-person planning session, to the day of the wedding, she was phenomenal. Throughout the whole process, she was thoughtful, helpful, responsive, and so kind. When it came to the ceremony, she knocked it out of the park. Her script was perfect and she was an excellent public speaker. We got multiple compliments afterwards about how good she was. We would recommend her as well as the company to anyone planning their wedding.

Rev. Dana Bingham from Pittsburgh Officiants was the officiant for my wedding in May. From our first meeting with her I knew she was the perfect choice for us. We wanted a short (b...
ut not too short), non-religious ceremony that felt authentic to us but wasn't so totally non traditional that it didn't feel like a marriage ceremony. It was difficult to imagine an (at the time) stranger being able to put the perfect ceremony together for us but Dana knocked it out of the park. She provided us with pages and pages of material from which to craft our ceremony and held a couple meetings with us (virtually since we aren't local the area) where she answered questions and gave suggestions. She ran our rehearsal the Friday night before our wedding which was also super helpful (this was an additional cost but 100% worth it!). She did a great job performing our ceremony, she was so professional yet warm and friendly at the same time. We got a ton of compliments after the ceremony from family and friends on how much they loved the ceremony and how heartfelt and unique to us it felt. Highly recommend Dana and Pittsburgh Officiants!

My experience with Pittsburgh Officiants, specifically Rev. Lisa Ann Goldsmith was amazing. She kept the process smooth, light, and easy. She didn’t require a ton of communication ...
or meetings, simply because she knows what she is doing! On the day of, our venue coordinator wasn’t happy about a last minute change to our unity ceremony, and Lisa resolved the issue on her own, making my life easy, and the ceremony continue on like normal. Everyone raved about our ceremony - they absolutely loved it! So did we!! Lisa made it funny, serious, and full of love. It was awesome. We received so many compliments the day of our wedding and still do. So happy we choose ceremony officiants and Rev. Lisa Goldsmith!

Our guests loved her energy, the readings we chose together, and the background story she told about us. Rev. LA, a cat lover herself, made sure to include references to our three beloved cats, including the fact that our youngest cat took some nibbles out of the marriage license. There was lots of laughs and plenty of tears by the end of the ceremony. We would highly recommend Rev. LA and the entire Pittsburgh Officiants staff to any couple seeking a wedding officiant.

We feel so blessed that we found Rev. Lisa Ann Goldsmith to be the person to marry us in Pittsburgh. Not only was the entire ceremony tremendously special for my wife and me, I can...
not count the number of people who came up to us throughout the reception to say "That was the best ceremony I've ever seen," "I cried six times," or "That was so personal, I haven't seen you in years and I feel like I know everything about your relationship" etc. We met with Rev Lisa Ann at least 3 times before the wedding to go over every detail, and she sent us the full ceremony script beforehand for approval so there were no surprises. She was also a great consultant for us both while writing our wedding vows. I can't recommend her, and Pittsburgh Officiants, highly enough.

Dana is easy to communicate with and she works with you to script the ceremony whether it be a traditional or a completely unique ceremony. Her professionalism and willingness to work with you is just too notch. If you’re looking for a personable and kind officiant, then I suggest contacting Pittsburgh Officiants and having a meeting with Dana Hardy- Bingham. Just fabulous!!!

pouring rain the day of our wedding and the whole set up of the ceremony changed right before we were to start. She was calm and kept things under control while all along making both of us feel comfortable as well as engaging our friends and family. I say this because her back ended up facing some of our guests but she made it a point to turn around periodically to include them as well. I loved that she was open to what we wanted to include as a couple. She definitely made our day memorable as well as our guests who attended because they can’t stop saying how wonderful and unique the ceremony was.
