Wedding Officiant

Hello! I’m Daniel and I’m honored to be considered for your big day! From my home in sunny Sacramento, California, I work with couples to make their ceremonies memorable, meaningful to them and engaging for guests. I guide my couples through the planning process of the ceremony from brainstorming symbols of unity to ordering a copy of your wedding certificate from the county.

The specifics of my services change to meet your needs, budget and timeline but if we choose to work together, I would:

  • Meet with you by phone, FaceTime, Skype or if we're local, in person to brainstorm ideas for vows, symbols of unity and ceremony themes

  • Orient you to the marriage license request process at your local county register

  • Draft a ceremony that will be memorable for all the right reasons, letting you and your spouse-to-be know as many (or as few!) specifics as you'd like

  • Attend a rehearsal for your ceremony and meet with your wedding party to guide the group to prepare the group for a smooth ceremony

  • File the wedding paperwork with the county and point you in the right direction for requesting a copy of your marriage certificate

You have plenty to plan already! So I do whatever I can leading up to and during the big day to put you at ease and allow you to focus on enjoying the celebration of your love.

Event Emcee

Got a big event with a big message? I have a big personality that can help make that message stick! From auctions, to crab feeds and everything in between – I will welcome your guests and makes sure they feel ready to open their hearts or wallets to your organization.  I have been the public face on twitter for the Sacramento Burger Battle generating interest and answering questions from participants in real time. With experience in theater and large-scale event planning I’d be a great addition to your planning committees and more importantly, that special something to take your plans the final steps to a great event.

Having me emcee your event means:

  • Presence at planning meetings leading up to the event

  • Event timeline review and feedback

  • Someone with theatrical flair to deliver your message and thank your sponsors

  • An active and proactive member of your event staff to help direct activities and coordinate day of cat wrangling

  • A welcoming personality to set the tone for your event and to keep the event moving

Planning an event is a big task, but it’s a much less stressful one knowing you’ll be able to share the spotlight with someone that thrives in it

Officiant Coach

Got a special someone already in mind to help make your special day happen? That’s great – give them the support of someone who’s been around the officiant block more than a few times.  Your friend may know you better than anyone, but if they haven’t officiated before, they may not know how to make you look as good as you deserve for your big day. With my support I’ll help your friend look like a pro, and more importantly, your love will be showcased and immortalized in memory making moments and pictures.

Like my officiating services, my coaching services can vary to meet the need of your officiant:

  • Meet with officiant by phone, FaceTime, Skype or if we're local, in person to brainstorm ideas for vows, symbols of unity and ceremony themes

  • Introduce them to the major components of a ceremony and help them find their own voice for conducting a ceremony

  • Orient them to the marriage license request process at your local county register

  • Help them draft a timeline for drafting and perfecting a script

  • Attend the rehearsal for the ceremony and meet with your wedding party to guide the group to prepare the group for a smooth ceremony

You want your friend or family member to help you celebrate – give them the gift of guidance to help them guide you into the next chapter of your lives.
