We highly recommend Leonard as a Wedding Officiant!

From the moment we met Leonard, we knew that we had found the perfect officiant for our wedding. He is a calm, grounded, and open individual - with a great sense of humour. He helped us to craft the perfect meaningful ceremony for us, and was completely open to all feedback and ideas we had. He was always early for meetings, super fast in responding to emails, and made us feel so comfortable . On the day of he checked in with both bride and groom, and ensured we were all ready to go! He realized how important this moment was for us, and you could tell that he was genuinely happy and invested in the wedding ceremony process with us. We highly recommend Leonard, and are grateful that he was a key part of our special day.

Wonderful officiant

We had Leonard as our officiant for our non-religious wedding on September 13th. He was very professional while also being very personable and having a great sense of humour. He gave us all the information we needed when it came to applying for the marriage license and certificate. We had multiple family and friends comment on what a great job he did during the ceremony, and it was very sweet that he mixed in some personal facts about my husband and I. The cheers from the blue jays fans was the cherry on top lol. Thank you so much again Leonard!!

An incredible day with Leonard!!

Leonard was recommended to us by our wedding venue, and from our very first meeting, we felt an instant connection. Our family and friends couldn’t stop talking about how much they loved the ceremony. His opening words were beautiful, heartfelt, and he brought just the right touch of lightheartedness to make the atmosphere joyful. He even showed up in a green suit—perfectly matching our colour palette without us ever mentioning it! It truly felt like it was meant to be. Thank you, Leonard, for helping make our day so special.

The best choice!

Leonard came highly recommended by a friend and did not disappoint. From our initial consult through to the ceremony itself, Leonard was professional, insightful and genuinely caring. He was kind enough to review our vows prior to the ceremony which was much appreciated and helped with the perfect flow of the ceremony.

Leonard led our wedding ceremony with a great mix of heartfelt and humour, and it was seamless. We continue to have many guests mention what a beautiful ceremony it was and what an amazing job Leonard did.

If you are on the hunt for an officiant you have found a great choice! All the best

The perfect officiant for a perfect day!

Hiring an officiant for our big day was one of the more daunting tasks we had on our plate - after all, it's the most important role in a wedding ceremony! But, as soon as we had our initial call with Leonard, we knew that he would be the perfect person to stand with us.

Leading up to the wedding, he provided lots of examples and guidance as we planned the details of the ceremony, both through video chat and in person at our rehearsal. He even provided feedback on our vows to make sure they were balanced and complementary to each others.

We also wanted to incorporate Filipino traditions into our ceremony, and Leonard had already had tons of experiences with these - we were able to seamlessly incorporate the cord, veil, coins and unity candle with Leonard's guidance.

Leonard was able to officiate a light-hearted, fun and personalized ceremony while beautifully explaining the traditions we chose to incorporate. It was a perfect mix of modernity and tradition and he represented us as a couple so well.

If you choose to hire Leonard for your big day, you're in extremely good hands!

A collaborative and inclusive experience

Leonard has been super collaborative, professional and supportive the whole way through our marriage preparation process! We kept in touch leading up to the ceremony, hopes on a zoom call with him as we live in The Bahamas, prior to our ceremony at home in Canada. And he provided easy to understand step by step details on how to apply for our license, our marriage certificate and together, decided on the style of ceremony he performed on our wedding day. He made it super easy for us and our guests are still raving about his style of ceremony. Many saying it was the best they’d ever witnessed! We couldn’t be happier or more grateful, Leonard was a true partner and supporter the whole way through!

We found the best, perfect officiant!

I’ve reached out to multiple officiants and it’s not easy to find the one. As soon as I found Leonard in WeddingWire, I had the strong feeling that he’s the one I want to officiate our wedding. Leonard is very professional, easy to communicate with, well-spoken and very organized. He made sure that he meets all our wants and needs for our wedding ceremony. Leonard made the ceremony planning stress-free for us. He has a good sense of humour as well, he made our ceremony light and smooth. Even my guests complimented how great he is!
