Wonderful officiant, and a lovely ceremony

Evan married my husband and I in May 2024. Evan provided a beautiful ceremony for us. He was very thoughtful in his preparation, in terms of personalizing the ceremony, to make it memorable and reflective of our love for each other. All of our guests thought the ceremony was so beautiful, and we are very grateful to have chosen Evan as our officiant. Beyond the ceremony itself, Evan was always responsive, helpful with his suggestions, and informed us on the administrative steps required to get married. We would absolutely recommend him to other couples getting married!

Amazing Officiant!

Evan was great to work with and very easy to communicate with! He put together an amazing ceremony for us, we absolutely loved it. Even when Evan was unable to officiate the wedding himself he made sure to have a back up plan and had Rick officiate for us! Rick made sure we felt at ease and happy with our ceremony. Absolutely great experience and would recommend to everyone!

The best you could hire!

A skilled speaker, he brought humor, and eloquence with his ceremony. He was able to play off our vows and really delivered a beautiful ceremony. Our guests all raved about him and we did too. Thank you for making our ceremony everything we could have hoped for and more.

An “Evanly” ceremony!

Evan was a pleasure to work with from the first initial phone call, months leading up, rehearsal, day of and even days after our wedding!

We were able to share some of our interests and quirks that make us unique as a couple, which made our ceremony so personal and special! The best part being that Evan kept most of the ceremony a surprise so we could truly live in the moment up at the alter. Many laughs and tears were shared!

Evan was very responsive to any questions we had, and also shared information of next steps with us once our day was complete!

I cannot recommend Evan enough as the perfect officiant choice, no matter what type of ceremony you’re looking for he truly listens to exactly what you’re looking for and takes the time to make it truly special, personal and unforgettable.

Thanks Evan!

Lighthearted and professional!

I really can't find enough good words to say about Evan, but I'll start off with a little background on our experience. My wife and I met Evan over a 20 minute Zoom call for our first introduction. We didn’t really know what we wanted for a ceremony, other than that we wanted something not terribly long. On the call, Evan did a small bio / introduction on himself, and to be totally honest, I could have picked him as our officiant after 5 minutes of dialogue. He struck me as a guy you would want to be friends with haha.

I’m not lying when I say he was the only officiant we met with; I asked my wife what she thought when we finished the Zoom call and she felt the exact same way. Although the rest of our correspondence with Evan leading up to the wedding was through email, we felt strongly that we had made a good choice in selecting him. His confidence and personality after just one meeting with him made us feel like we were in good hands.

On the day of the wedding, Evan was great; he talked to the wedding party prior to the big moment, and he just has a way with words that really takes the stress out of the atmosphere. He made little jokes and quips that really lightened the mood and were in good taste. Even during the actual ceremony, which was conducted expertly, he made little quips and ribbings that only I (the groom) could hear (not even my soon to be wife 3 feet away could hear them) that took any stress out of the moment and really allowed me to feel more relaxed, and give my best performance.

For reference, I do a lot of public speaking for my day-to-day work, so I feel like it's easy for me to see and appreciate the subtleties that Evan brings that help you elevate your game when it matters so much to you personally to perform. Getting that comfort is not always easy, but with Evan it was a cinch. Evan, thank you for your professionalism, and attention to detail -you really came through for us.

Exactly what we were looking for!

We are so happy we chose Evan as our officiant. He was responsive, professional, organized, and gave us the perfect ceremony. It was short, sweet, and had a bit of humour, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Evan to anyone looking for an officiant! :)

As a lawyer and natural storyteller, becoming a wedding officiant made perfect sense for me. However, it was something I had never actually thought about, that is, until a couple of good friends asked me to perform their wedding ceremony.

I was very honoured to be asked, and excited from the joy I received playing such a special role in their important day. It immediately inspired me to help other couples fulfill their dreams for their own cherished events.
