"My husband and I were extremely happy to have booked Dave from Once Upon a Wedding to officiate our wedding day. From our first meeting, we knew he would be perfect for our day.  Dave is very accommodating and easy to work with.  He is quick with his correspondence and works with you over the months coming up to the wedding to create a beautiful, personalized script with as many or as little elements as you choose.  He provides many examples to help and openly welcomes your own ideas and meaningful mini-ceremonies to add into the day. Dave is personable, friendly, an excellent public speaker, and his genuinely nice personality makes the day stress free and enjoyable. We have had so many compliments from our guests on how personalized our ceremony was, how it really showed our love and how we are as a couple to our family and friends, and how wonderfully it was delivered- and this was all thanks to Dave! 

Thank you for making our wedding day special and one to remember.

"We cannot thank you enough for doing such a great job with our ceremony. The process leading up to it went so smoothly and became so personalized and flowed really well. Your suggestion on vows helped us to really nail down what we wanted to say and not ramble. We received so much positive feedback on both the ceremony and vows and a good chunk of that is due to you. Aside from positive feedback from others, it was perfect to the two of us.
Thanks for the details on the legal aspects moving forward. We will take care of it when the time comes.

Thanks again Dave. We were just so happy with how the ceremony turned out.

"I don’t know where to start with Dave.  He is amazing!  He was super informative right off the bat, providing us with all the information needed to create an amazing ceremony.  I’m not sure about other companies, but with Dave, we had the option to write the entire ceremony ourselves (which we chose to do).  He was there, just an email away, throughout the entire process and sent lots of check-in emails to make sure we were on track to have the perfect ceremony ready with lots of time to spare.  He even helped us out with our legal Ontario ceremony (because our wedding was held in Quebec) and wrote up a very brief, but adorable, piece to make that day just as special for us.  We have had countless compliments from all our guests about the gorgeous ceremony and I would definitely recommend hiring Dave to do your ceremony as well!"

"We would like to give you sincere thanks from the bottom of our hearts for making sure that our wedding had a truly excellent ceremony at it's centre. Your guidance from the very beginning and stewardship during the ceremony created something truly amazing and way better than we could have imagined or done on our own. We cannot thank you enough for making the day truly special for us and all our guests. 

Everyone who interacted with you has something positive to say about it which can only speak to the quality of your character. We had a lot of people ask about you and we hope they will someday contact you to retain your services. And even though Chris made a joke about getting you for "all his weddings" , it does make us a little sad we only get to plan our ceremony with you once! All jokes aside, it was an incredible day, like the best kind of dream, and we have you to thank for so much of it. 
THANK YOU DAVE!

All the best.

"Thank you for everything. The ceremony went great .. you made us feel very comfortable.

I'm glad you enjoyed chatting with my grandparents. I laughed so much when I read what you wrote in your closing letter about my cousin rolling her eyes .. that is so something she would do. Haha! I even read it to her and she couldn't stop laughing. 

Thanks again :)

Your delivery on the day of was excellent - we had guests tell us you were an excellent speaker.  You probably knew that, but I figure you wouldn't mind hearing it.

“Dave’s professionalism was second to none. He was exactly what we were looking for on our wedding day. He helped us stay at ease during the ceremony and guided us right through to the end when we walked down the aisle. If we had to do this all over again, Dave Corkery would definitely be the first person we would call.” Thanks for making our special day even better. Mike & Lesley, 2015-09
