Thank you Kevin for marrying us!

I knew I wanted Kevin to be our officiant as soon as we secured a date and venue for our wedding. This was over a year in advance when I reached out to Kevin. He kindly suggested I contact him again within the year for a more realistic timeline. I vividly remember reaching out to him on the exact one-year mark before our wedding. I just knew it had to be Kevin and no other officiants because I was so impressed when I saw him officiate my friend's wedding a few years back, and his name had always stuck with me.

We can't thank Kevin enough for being such an incredible officiant on our wedding day. Despite the intense atmospheric river storm and wind, with rain constantly coming at him, Kevin remained calm and professional. His back was probably soaked, but he kept his composure and delivered a beautiful ceremony.

We also loved the personal touches Kevin offered. He provided a selection of rituals, and we chose the plant ritual, which added such a meaningful and unique element to our ceremony. We now have a plant baby to take care of in our new home as newlyweds. His fluency in both English and Cantonese was a huge plus, as some of our guests spoke only one or the other, making the ceremony accessible and heartfelt for all.

Even though we only met Kevin in person once, during the rehearsal before the wedding, we felt that he really took the time to understand our family dynamics. His guidance during the rehearsal was super helpful in prepping us and our families for the big day. When he noticed that my husband's mom had difficulty walking, he kindly offered to assist her in getting from her chair to the signing table without hesitation. He truly cared about the flow of events, the placement of things, and the overall vision of the ceremony.

We also appreciated how Kevin was mindful of the photography. Without us asking, he instinctively stepped out of the frame during our first kiss, ensuring the moment was captured perfectly. As we look back at the photos, we were pleasantly surprised to see that he had stepped aside again when we exchanged our personal vows — such a small but incredibly thoughtful touch.

We are so grateful for Kevin’s professionalism, kindness, and the care he put into making our wedding ceremony unforgettable. Thank you, Kevin, for braving the storm and making our day truly perfect!

The best and most thoughtful officiant!

Our wedding planner recommended Kevin as our officiant for our wedding, and he was the best! We had a bilingual English/Mandarin wedding and Kevin was flawless in both languages. He made our guests feel comfortable and his delivery and script were amazing. He helped guide us each step of the way, and even if we forgot what to do next, he was there to subtly nudge us along.

We will forever be grateful to Kevin for incorporating a memorial/tribute for our dog, Amethyst, who passed away two days before the wedding. We messaged him the day before to let him know the news, and he generously and seamlessly worked in a portion of our ceremony for Amethyst at our request.

Thank you, Kevin, for being the best officiant ever! We cannot thank and recommend you enough! :)

Amazing Officiant

Vancity Officiant was truly amazing. Kevin was the best officiant we could've asked for. He was very professional, kind, and personable. His sense of humour was admirable and definitely took off loads of stress during the most stressful time in our lives! The team's response to emails was always quick and professional. We received so many compliments on our officiant, everyone loved him! My husband and I will recommend them to anyone planning their wedding.

Best Officiant Ever!

Was recommended to us by Shing Wedding. Kevin was absolutely the best! Is trilingual, so perfect for our guests to understand. Also came to our rehearsal as well and directed us where to go and what to do, even telling us we probably forget but he will be there to guide us. The whole ceremony went flawlessly without any issues. He has prepared unique and personalized timeline for us. Highly recommend Kevin to be your officiant!

Kevin was Amazing!

We had Kevin as our officiant and he was awesome! He was funny and very easy to talk to. Once you book with them, their website & questionnaire forms had all the details we needed and if we had any other inquiries, Kevin always responded promptly. Highly reccommend adding the rehearsal for those who have no idea what they're doing (like us). Kevin was great at guiding our large wedding party and it was so so helpful and prepared us for the big day. Thanks Kevin!

Fantastic officiant

Kevin was our officiant for our elopement and he did a fantastic job. Not only was he very personable, he really took the time to walk us through fine details and questions we had leading up to. He is very quick in his response time and observant - just the person we needed for our wedding. His bilingual service served very well for our family members as this allowed them to follow along. I would highly recommend kevin to all my friends.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
