Got married

Kevin and his team have excellent work ethic and they are very devoted to their work. We arranged everything in just 2 weeks. Kevin was always there for answering our inquiries from 7am to 11pm. Kevin made us feel like we were talking to someone that we already knew. He also arranged a fantastic video crew for us for a short video. The perfect thing about Vancity Officiant and Kevin is that you don't need to deal with bunch of middle man looking for confirmation from one another because Kevin has the full control of the organization which makes things work very smooth and fast. I wish lifelong success to Kevin and his team.

The helicopter company ("Sky Helicopters"), photographer and officer - 10/10! I would recommend Kevin and his team to anyone. I think every couple deserves such a special wedding. If you wonder whether to choose Kevin and his team - think no more! I'm telling you it's the best choice you can make! I am so excited, happy and grateful for our elopement organized by Vancity Officiant.

A wonderful choice for a magical experience

Kevin was amazing! A lovely warm and welcoming person who would go out of his way to provide us with what we required, every question we had was answered quickly and in detail. I can't thank Kevin and Kit enough, The ceremony was exactly what we wanted. We requested some specific Cantonese words, a specific location, day and time at relatively short notice and we were not disappointed. Kevin lead the ceremony with grace and professionalism and made it feel personal and special for us. He was caring, understanding and took the time to understand our needs, our desires and who we were as people and as a couple. As a professional photographer of over a decade I can say with confidence that Kit's photography is very good and I was very happy with the results. The photographs were clear and beautiful capturing some lovely moments, the photo access online was presentable and easy to access too. I would highly recommend this company to anyone without question.

Kelly & Abril

Kevin Leung wrote and performed a beautiful ceremony for us. He personalized the ceremony based on our love story and our mutual interests. He was very good at reading the vibe of the wedding and went with the flow when our little nephew started crawling across the stage! It was very lovely, Kevin really helped us to enjoy our ceremony and relax during one of the most important and stressful events of the evening! We cannot recommend Kevin and his team enough. ☺️

Wonderful Experience!

Kevin is an excellent officiant and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for an officiant who goes beyond just showing up and performing a routine ceremony. He personalized his description of our love story, and our guests loved the humor that came through in our English and Cantonese ceremony. Thank you again Kevin!

It was great!

Kevin was great! He made it really lively not only on the day of the wedding, but during the rehearsal as well! He helped us lots on what to do, where to stand, and everything we needed to do on the day. He asked for our information about where we met and other questions about me and my husband, and he made a speech just for us! It was really sweet. Just one minor thing, he mistaken something about how we met, but I guess that's fine.
All in all, it was great to have him there to do a bilingual ceremony for us!

Kevin was professional and on top of everything! He is fluent in English, Mandarin, and Catonese so all our family and friends were able to understand and enjoy our cozy ceremony. He guided us through the entire process. We had smooth and pleasant communication over emails and on rehearsal and wedding day. We highly recommend Vancity Officiant to anyone!

Best decision having Kevin as our officiant!

We had Kevin to officiate our wedding in August, 2017. This is one area of the wedding planning that we didn't have to worry. From the beginning, Kevin was very responsive and professional in all email communications. He would also provide us advise on how to write our vows. He made sure all of details were taken care of: ceremony walking orders, mention of guests visiting from oversea, important parts to be translated, etc. We really felt we were in good hand. Our guests also thought Kevin did a good job making the ceremony romantic, sweet and yet funny. They thought the ceremony was memorable and they enjoyed it from beginning to the end, and we couldn't agree more!
