    Amazing ceremony

    We loved our wedding ceremony officiated by Martin. He helped us craft a beautiful story to celebrate our love with our closest family and friends. He was a helpful, supportive, calming and caring presence both before and on our wedding day, helping with guests, guiding us through the official aspects of our ceremony, and making sure we as the wedding couple were happy, relaxed, and in the moment. It was a beautiful day and we will treasure our memories from our ceremony forever - thank you, Martin!

    Amazing Officiant

    Martin officiated our fusion wedding and it was amazing! His planning meetings beforehand really helped us to feel comfortable with him and he was able to get our story as a couple just right! Since we had a fusion wedding, Martin was able to seamlessly incorporate both cultures’ traditions into our ceremony.
    Martin’s flexibility with meeting times was appreciated as both my husband and I work 9-5’s. Martin was the perfect fit for us and was exactly what we needed. Also, all the information around the marriage license, certificate, etc. that he provided was extremely helpful.

    Definitely recommend his services!

    You need to use Martin for your wedding - there's no one better!

    There aren't enough positive things I can say about Martin. We had interviewed a number of officiants and no one made us feel more comfortable and excited compared to Martin. Right off the bat, he was engaging, excited and curious. He wanted to get to know us and listened to what we wanted for the ceremony. We had multiple calls that felt very casual and like we were chatting with a friend, while still being structured. He was always so prepared (even when we weren't).

    And the ceremony. Wow. It went above and beyond my expectations. Multiple people came up to me after and said that was the best ceremony they have ever witnessed and asked how we knew Martin, as it came across as if he had known us our whole lives. It was the perfect mix of serious and funny, just as we had wanted. He was beyond incredible.

    I cannot recommend Martin enough. Stop looking at hire him asap!!!!

    Awful Experience

    I hired Martin to be my officiant and due to Covid I had to cancel my wedding. I gave Martin payment in full beforehand and even though I have given him 120+ days notice, he won't respond to my cancellation or return the $400+ that we paid. I know that there is a non-refundable deposit that is in the contract, but the remaining balance was paid in full. This is incredibly unprofessional of Martin to do and has really added a bad taste to the whole wedding process. He acted so nice and sweet when we interviewed him and yet this is how he treats us. I would avoid Martin and Ceremonies with Choice.

    Martin is excellent at his job!

    We had the perfect ceremony and Martin let us craft it exactly how we wanted. He was friendly, professional and everyone thought he brought a great energy to the day! Thank you Martin!

    Poor communication. Abandoned.

    We had high hopes for Martin but after paying our deposit, unfortunately our emails were (and continue to be) ignored. Our wedding was postponed to the following year due to Covid. We acknowledge that he did demonstrate some flexibility in rescheduling, but when we chose a new date for our venue that he was not available for, he became completely unreachable and unresponsive. After 2 months of being ignored, we received an email saying he could be "potentially available" for our new date. We had total loss of confidence in his professional communication at that point. He does seem like a pleasant officiant if things go according to plan but be forewarned that unforeseen or extenuating circumstances (like Covid) may result in you being abandoned.

    Made us feel at ease

    From our first meeting we instantly agreed
    Martin would be our officiant. He is so warm and welcoming we both felt like we had met him before and could easily talk with him. He perfected our ceremony and made it very personal -he shared our story of how we met with our guests. We can’t count how many people came up to us and mentioned that our ceremony was so personal and well done. We thank Martin for working with us and creating the perfect ceremony that expressed exactly who we are as a couple.

    Ceremonies With Choice's reply:

    Jennifer and Justin, thank you for your kind words. I'm delighted you are so happy with your ceremony. The inclusion of your love story and personalized vows made for such a beautiful celebration. Wishing you a lifetime of happiness. Hugs, Martin

    Very friendly - Perfect choice for us!

    Martin was an amazing officiant! Right off the bat, he offered to meet with us as many times as we wanted, which we really appreciated. He helped personalize our ceremony by getting to know us and our relationship. He made sure that the ceremony was adapted to something that was comfortable for us and reflected our families. He is so easy going and easy to talk to which helped calm our nerves on the day of. I would definitely recommend him!

    Thank you Martin!

    Martin was great to work with throughout the entire process of planning our ceremony and truly brought it to life the way we had envisioned. After meeting Martin, we knew we had to have him as a part of our wedding as he was professional, kindhearted and exhibited a passion for what he does. As he was recommended by our coordinators, it is evident that Martin is very well known throughout the Toronto wedding community and highly respected by all of those we spoke with.

    A sincere thank you to Martin for helping make our day so full of love, happiness and laughter.

    Ceremonies With Choice's reply:

    Michelle and Mitch, thank you for your kind words, and I'm so delighted we created a ceremony that truly reflected you, which is exactly what your wedding day should be. Wishing you a lifetime of love, happiness and laughter. Martin
