Don Mulford Weddings - Officiants Near Me

My wife and I were married at Valley Presbyterian Church in August 2016. Don was our assigned officiant from the church, and did a wonderful job presiding over our ceremony and communicating with us in the lead-up! We had requested to bring in an additional guest pastor to our wedding ceremony, and Don and Valley Presbyterian Church were very accommodating of the arrangement. Don worked closely with us to outline their respective responsibilities in a way that we were really satisfied with. In other areas as well, Don was receptive to our back-and-forth requests on wording and the order of ceremony. One of Don's suggestions to us was a reading of letters, allowing us to both recite the traditional wedding vows but also incorporate personal touches in our letters. This was by far our guests' favorite part of our ceremony, and we're so thankful to Don for the suggestion. Overall, Don was a really flexible, warm, and gracious wedding officiant, and we'd definitely recommend him! read more

He was able to accommodate us and he guided us through everything. He asked us to write a letter for each other to read during the ceremony. It was such a special touch! He made sure we were comfortable with every detail and listened to all of our requests for it to be a unique ceremony. He definitely has that special touch to make the day better.

Finding an officiant for my wedding was probably the *most stressful* part of planning my big day. I cross-referenced reviews between Yelp and The Knot for suitable officiants and after meeting Reverend Mulford, I knew I'd found someone special to make my wedding ceremony complete. He is a joy to talk to and has a special formula for making vows more personal and keeping guests engaged throughout the ceremony. He is very down to earth and personable, and having his guidance in putting together a ceremony (complete with traditions from my family) helped a lot with wedding jitters. After meeting with him in-person, we kept in touch via email to nail down specifics (processional order, traditions, certain passages, etc.) and share key stories about us that added much more 'flavor' than just "vows" and "prayer." The day before, he helped us at our rehearsal; and, right before the guests were seated for the wedding, he visited me and my bridal party and said a prayer before it was time to walk. I am truly blessed and grateful to have Reverend Mulford as our officiant; he made my wedding day truly unforgettable. read more

Reverend Don Mulford was very kind, flexible, and professional throughout our ceremony planning. He encouraged us to add our personal touches to the outline provided to us. We had unexpected visitors accompany us at the altar and Reverend Don incorporated them in the ceremony seamlessly. So well that our guests did not know they were not supposed to be a part of the ceremony. Also, our marriage license was handled by him for us and we didn't have to worry afterwards. I rated 4 instead of 5 only because we were not able to meet until the wedding day, our last names were forgotten during the ceremony, and we were introduced as "Mr." instead of "Mr. and Mrs." Thankfully nobody noticed nor remembered. We are thankful for Reverend Don and his calm spirit. Truly recommend! read more

My husband and I had Reverend Don officiate our wedding last weekend and it was a great experience. We planned our wedding remotely so our main correspondence with Rev. Don was on the phone and online. We first had about an hour long phone conversation with him in order to decide if we thought we had a good fit and then we decided to retain his services. From then on, we traded ceremony drafts in word documents until we had a ceremony that was both personal and professional. We did not meet Rev. Don in person until the day before the wedding, when we finalized the ceremony details and logistics. Because we had a small family wedding, we opted not to have a rehearsal so Rev. Don helped us with figuring things out. He had even scoped out the ceremony venue weeks beforehand to see what he thought and envisioned. Rev. Don arrived to the Japanese Gardens an hour before the ceremony was scheduled to commence to welcome family and coordinate things. The ceremony was well delivered and he would whisper hints to us when we forgot to do something or were talking too quickly. When the ceremony ended and we went to take pictures, Rev. Don made sure to get the witness signatures, which was a detail I completely overlooked. He was very thoughtful, kind, and made the ceremony process a very memorable one. We wanted to ensure that the ceremony was not overshadowed by the events afterwards and this all worked very well under Rev. Don's guidance. It's kind of crazy that we could find a great officiant online, but wonderful that it all worked out to create a meaningful ceremony. read more

Reverend Don Mulford helped us greatly in preparing and hosting our ceremony. Before the wedding, he met with us and helped us walk through the procedure and even read the full script to us, so that there's no surprise in the big day. The walkthrough is very organized, and Don provided several choices to customize the flow, as well as the pros and cons of each one. At the wedding day Don is patient and steady, and makes the ceremony a pleasant experience. I have much pleasure working with Don and would highly recommend him! read more

Don was easy going from the start and very professional. We got the chance to talk personally over the phone, email and meet in person. He gave us much needed guidance in crafting our ceremony.

From the get go we felt a connection with Don. We instantly knew from meeting him the first time he was the right fit to marry us. He was so kind, patient, and extremely attentive to everything. On the big day, before the ceremony I will never forget he came to meet me with my father to see how I was doing. He said the sweetest prayer and made me feel so special and like God was right there with me. Thank you again for making this the most unforgettable day a girl could ever dream for. read more

Without a doubt, Rev. Mulford is a true professional and was an absolute pleasure to work with. He cares about the couples he's marrying and makes the effort to know them on a personal level. Prior to the wedding, my wife and I met with Rev. Mulford to talk about our background as a couple, details about the wedding, and any questions we had. On the wedding day, Rev. Mulford was very organized and detailed oriented. You can just see how happy he is for us and what a big day it is. We appreciate all the kind and meaningful words he spoke with warmth and charm. We loved how he incorporated our personal stories into the ceremony. We also enjoyed Rev. Mulford's idea of writing and reading letters to each other. Both made the wedding more endearing and provided good humor for our guests. We are so blessed to have Rev. Mulford as our officiant. Truly, he helped make our wedding day the most memorable day of our lives. read more

We found Don through Yelp. We emailed him and he was very prompt getting back to us. After speaking with Don via Skype we knew we found the perfect match. Not only is Don wise, insightful and eloquent with his words, but he and his wife happen to be from the same cities as my husband and I. We met in person to get to know Don better. He was very warm and inviting, and a total pro with couples. He then sent his outline of the ceremony which we desperately needed as this whole process was so foreign to us. At our wedding Don captivated our guests with his prayers, thoughts and stories. We heard many times how great he was, unique but still with a sense of tradition. I would HIGHLY recommend Don to anyone in search of an officiant. read more

Our wedding was in September and we found Reverend Don through The Knot a little over a year ago. We chose him because of all the amazing reviews he had. I can honestly say that he exceeded our expectations! From the first day we met him he was a professional. He always got back to our emails in a timely manner. We were so nervous leading up to the wedding and he offered to FaceTime us so we can check in with him and he helped us feel a lot better. He also supported us when we asked him if he can make a few changes to our ceremony. We wanted a Lasso for our unity symbol and Reverend Don did not hesitate. He found a way to make it work and it did! He truly made the ceremony our own. It was personal, sweet and a little funny which is what we always hoped for. I promise you, you will not regret choosing him as your officiant. Thank you Reverend Don! -Melissa & Jordan read more

It was our honor to have Don as our wedding reverend. Don is a very professional and elegant wedding officiate. We were very lucky to have invited him as our officiate in our wedding last June. He was very experienced and very nice to come to our rehearsal to prepare the ceremony to its full details. His speech was full of humor and very passionate. I would definitely recommend him as your wedding officiate. read more

We planned our wedding ourselves, without a professional planner--and we really appreciated that Don is kind, organized, and experienced. He gave us helpful suggestions where he saw that our DIY plans could be improved. For example, when he realized that we were worried about the ceremony being too long, Don told us that it would feel very short to us, and that we should instead try to lengthen the ceremony so we could really savor the experience. Don helped us to look away from the administrative details and focus on the significance of our wedding, so we wouldn't miss the forest for the trees. He also took care of the paperwork quickly and efficiently. read more

We had the pleasure to work with Don and would highly recommend him. He spent the time to get to know us and incorporated our personal stories into his sermon. Due to some planning difficulties, we involved Don pretty late in the process but he was a true professional and was a calming influence during a stressful time. read more

Rev. Don was our officiant for our wedding in September 2012 at San Mateo Marriott. I found Don on weddingwire and contacted him via email, and then met him at Starbucks in San Mateo soon after. We found him to be very charming and accomodating, so we decided to hire him. Don sent us a draft of the ceremony, and let us change it however we want. His service also included 2 sessions of premarital counseling, which we opted to do via Skype. These sessions were very enjoyable and helpful -- they gave us good topics for discussion. Don was also very accomodating in joining us for our rehearsal. He walked us through the ceremony so we would know what to do for our big day! On the big day, he was full of smiles and energy. He even took care of scanning and mailing in our marriage license, so we didn't haven't to worry about it on our big day. We really enjoyed working with Don and would recommend him! read more

Reverend Don officiated for our wedding this past September at Kohl Mansion. He was one of the preferred vendors for the venue and our wedding coordinator. From the very beginning, to even after our wedding(he congratulated us again and checked in to see how we were doing), he was extremely responsive with both email and phone calls. He really is a seasoned pro when it comes to weddings and sends out an outline of the ceremony and personalized for every couple. My wife was very taken with him on her initial meeting with him and knew immediately that he was the perfect choice to wed us. Reverend Don not only has a calm and wise demeanor but also added a bit of humor to our ceremony when the speakers blew out to ad lib and keep the procession moving forward. He really cares for the couples and gives a truly genuine and wonderful experience. read more

Pastor Don is amazing! He met my wife and I on several occasions before the wedding day providing marriage advice while taking the time to understand us as individuals.

I am so thankful to have had my wedding at VPC. Everyone was extremely helpful throughout the process. I had very few opportunities to visit the church and make arrangements since I currently live in Ohio, but I was able to do make it all happen during the two weeks that I went back before the wedding. The church itself is simply gorgeous and the small forest behind the church makes an amazing backdrop. Rev Don Mulford was very patient with us and went through the entire speech with us to make sure everything we wanted was included, which made the ceremony very personal. All our guests were very impressed with the church and the whole ceremony! read more
