Thank you Dean for not only officiating but making our wedding so special…read more We highly recommend Dean Merrill, he was professional, punctual, organized, heartfelt and made us feel ready and relaxed. Do not give it a second thought, reach out to him and book him. Thank you!!

My husband and I were in the 11th hour for selecting an officiant and when we met with Dean there…read morewas no need to continue the search anymore. The immediate reassurance he makes you feel that this is YOUR day and he is going to make it everything you want it to be is fantastic. He asked all the right questions and made the process seamless which is always nice to have one less wedding detail to worry about. So many guests after our ceremony asked if we knew Dean or if he was a long time family friend because of how he presented our ceremony and were shocked when we told them we just met. My husband and I are so grateful for Dean making our wedding ceremony one to remember and will sing nothing but praises for him. Thank you, Dean!

This review is for our wedding which took place on January 6, 2018 at Malibu West Beach Club…read more After interviewing a potential officiant who showed up late for our FaceTime talk, talking to Officiant Eric was such a refresher as we planned our wedding. He was always on time and his gentle, collaborative nature always put my wife and I at ease when we talked! His energy is contagious! Even on the day of, when he walked up to our venue's doors, he seriously calmed my nerves! He even gave my wife and I some tips while we were... y'know, up there getting married! What I loved about Officiant Eric was the ability to customize our ceremony! It was perfect for us as we didn't really want to have a religious ceremony and we wanted to customize it to our liking. Officiant Eric was encouraging, super helpful, and was open to being available for a FaceTime chat. Officiant Eric was amazing (and *efficient* might I add hehe), and his personality always brought comfort to this bride and groom!! Thank you so much!

Eric was recommended to us by our day of wedding coordinator. We went with him because we liked…read morethe fact that we could customize everything about our wedding ceremony and that he had tons of experience officiating weddings. The process to design our ceremony was easy because we just had to pick and choose the different aspects from a given list but also we were able to customize it to make it about us and our relationship. Eric was super helpful and answered all our questions in a timely manner. He presented the ceremony in a wonderful manner and we would recommend him to anyone who is getting married in the future.

We chose the perfect officiant for our wedding Fredrick V. James aka RICK JAMES :)…read more He was the perfect fit for us. We knew from the beginning he was reliable, professional, and a positive energy. Before the wedding we spoke and he made sure to get to know us so that our ceremony was tailored to us. He welcomed our guests, told a lil bit of our story, and included the lasso ceremony. He's a well seasoned officiant and can make any ceremony beautiful and fun. Our guests were raving about how much they loved the ceremony saying it was different from the usual boring ones. Highly recommend Frederick for a beautiful ceremony that includes some humor and personalized touches. TLDR: professional, fun, and caring 10/10 would recommend

Yenmin was absolutely AMAZING! I did not expect to cry at all and the tears were FLOWINGGGGGG. She gave an option to do the ceremony in Spanish for my family and we did not expect that. Very professional and accommodating staff! The second Yenmin began to give the ceremony, I felt as if me and my husband were alone in the room getting ready to step into the next phase of our life. This experience was everything I could have imagined. Thank you so much!!!!

My review is extremely super late! Like 5-6 years late. But I wanted a fast almost like "Vegas…read morewedding chapel" style. I came across this place! Highly recommended! Very professional and fast! We wanted our wedding to be on our anniversary (Veterans day). They can come to you, or you can go to them. Now, we got married during the pandemic so it was very limited to what they can actually offer at their location. We brought in tripods to set up our phones to do a virtual wedding. I had Facebook live and my husband had zoom on his. This allowed all of our friends and family to attend from near and far. We got there at 1030am to set up and sign the documents. Then the ceremony started at 11am and finished at 11:11am! It did not take us 1 hour to get married, took us longer to set up than it did for the whole process lol. The BEST part is they do EVERYTHING that deals with paperwork for you! During covid, that meant everything because I didnt have to worry about going to file at the county, or deal with people. I know my sister-in-law got married at the same place and so did another colleague from work after we did.

From the start of our interaction to the "'I do's" it was absolutely flawless. It felt more like a best friend taking our hand and walking us thru the entire process start to finish. He was incredibly delightful & beyond helpful and everything more than we couldve ever asked for. We are so happy we decided to go with him on our most important day, it could not have been any better and I mean that with genuine gratitude.

We had initial calls where he took the time to understand what we were looking for and explained his approach. We also filled out a questionnaire that helped him understand what we truly wanted for our wedding. He was detailed and responsive every step of the way, always making sure our questions were answered and that we felt confident and prepared. On the day of the wedding, Jon was on time and brought such a joyful and lighthearted energy to the wedding. We recommend Jon to anyone looking for an officiant. You won't be disappointed! :) Service: 5+/5

Working with Courtney Haynes from One Sweet Day Weddings & Events was one of the best decisions we…read moremade for our wedding. I would hire her again 1000x. From start to finish, Courtney was an absolute delight to work with. She is incredibly organized, kept every detail and every person on track with ease, and did it all with such warmth, kindness, and positivity. She truly is a bright light. I am definitely not someone who was born to plan parties, so having Courtney to bounce ideas off of and guide us through the planning process took an enormous weight off my shoulders. My mom passed away a few years ago and I was afraid to plan a wedding on my own, but Courtney became more than a planner she became my friend. She made every decision feel manageable and always made us feel confident that everything was under control. On our wedding day, I never once felt stressed or overwhelmed. Every detail was executed flawlessly, and I was able to be completely present for every special moment instead of worrying about logistics. Seeing everything come together so beautifully was beyond anything we could have imagined, and that was all thanks to Courtney's incredible work behind the scenes. I also want to mention our DJ Brian (who we were able to hire alongside Courtney in a contract together). He also deserves all the praises - there was not one moment where the dance floor wasn't filled and he was SUCH a talented DJ. The online program he used to help compile our song requests was so easy to use and he was so engaging the entire time with our guests. Thank you Brian! We are so happy we trusted you as our DJ, all our family and friends raved about you.  Not to be confused with our amazing DJ - I also would love to recommend DJ Catering. Doug and Courtney have worked together for years and their teamwork was flawless. I had so many people tell us after the wedding that it was the best wedding food they have ever had, by far. And being able to rent all the tables etc through them made the process so simple.  Anyone looking for a wedding coordinator who is organized, professional, genuinely kind, and truly invested in making your day perfect, I cannot recommend Courtney and One Sweet Day Weddings & Events highly enough. She gave us the gift of being able to fully enjoy one of the best days of our lives, and for that we will always be grateful.    P.S. Courtney thank you for being the most prepared person ever and sewing my button back on my dress mid wedding we love you! You are the best. Thank you so much for being part of our story.

Coming from the mother of the grooms perspective and being a little old school, I didn't initially grasp the hiring of a Wedding Coordinator, however, it was the best decision that they made...... aside from getting married ;) Courtney allowed me to be involved (bride and groom approved) and she was kind, gracious and meticulously organized and kept me in the loop without missing a beat. Everything from start to finish was better than I could have imagined or hoped for. She is truly a special person as well as incredibly professional.

If we're being perfectly honest... we LOVED Reverend Southwick from the moment we met. We both knew…read morethat this was the Reverend we wanted to lead us through this big life step. The first day we met, he spent time getting to know us and also allowing us to know him. His heart is in the right place and care about the people he works with and the church community in the neighborhood. He supported us the whole time, helping answer our questions either over the phone or in emails and keeping us calm. We both grew up in Catholic homes but since then have become more liberal in our beliefs which Reverend Southwick understood and spoke to. He clarified a ton of questions we had (mostly from our families confusing us) and was able to create a ceremony that respected our religious roots without sticking to the traditional church script (we didn't want a long ceremony). He also tied in our shared cultural traditions soo smoothly (he is Mexican and I am Filipino) which was so important for us to have. Even our set up girl remarked at how positively shocked she was that he was willing to help us during the rehearsal! Everyone loved him and the humor he brought to the day which was very necessary because this is such a big, emotional and at times highly anxious day. Get to know him, you won't regret it. We will continue to look to him for guidance in our marriage, for our spirituality and in life. What a great new relationship!!
