    I was married on July 26th, 2020 at Hans Fahden Vineyard. Well let's just say that COVID-19 killed our originally wedding plans. I called Rev. Blane in despair, because at this point I had a beautiful wedding dress that I wasn't sure that I'd be able to wear. Rev. Blane was so comforting, and even though our plans were uncertain moving forward... we made the tentative plan for us to be married at Hans Fahden, and we waited patiently until we knew for sure that we would be able to have our ceremony. Our special day was magical. I couldn't imagine us being married any other way. Thank you Rev. Blane for everything. I'm still glowing from the wonderful positive experience. I would recommend the elopement package for anyone that doesn't want COVID-19 to delay marriage. I strongly recommend the venue Hans Fahden, it was so beautiful.

    I got in touch with Rev. Blane and Leslie three weeks before my wedding. My original venue had cancelled on me and I was feeling very stressed about finding a new wedding venue and officiant with so little time before the event. Leslie was wonderful to work with and helped me book the venue and Blane's services for the date I needed. We had a great call with Rev. Blane before the wedding where he took the time to get to know us as a couple so he could customize our ceremony. The location for our ceremony was beautiful and intimate. Rev. Blane and Leslie worked with our photographer to get the best shots and made all our guests laugh. I could not recommend working with Rev. Blane and Leslie enough!

    My husband and I decided we wanted an intimate wedding. We wanted to make sure it was something special with only the people we loved. Rev. Blane was absolutely amazing from the beginning to the end! He made sure our ceremony was perfect. I loved how he made the ceremony unique to us and incorporated everything my husband and I love about each other. We had a little issue due to work emergency and rev Blane worked with us so we could still have our special day! I can't thank him enough for everything he did on this day. I also can't forget to add how beautiful the venue was! If you're wanting your special day to be amazing I recommend rev Blane!!

    I feel so weird rating a Rev. But wow - this guy is LEGIT. If you're in Napa getting married, use Rev Blane. According to my bf's brother and his now wife (they used him) - he does around 300 ceremonies per year. How awesome is that?! My bf's brother who was getting married said Rev Blane was super great, personable, and able to be direct during their pre counseling for their wedding day. BF's brother is the kind of guy that's hard to impress, so when he spoke praises of the Rev, I knew the Rev was legit. At the ceremony - omg, hahaha, Rev was great. Very hands on, entertaining, AND sincere. In fact, if I ever get married - I'd want Rev Blane to do my ceremony. Just the way he did the entire ceremony was very... interesting. Everyone that went to the ceremony appreciated Rev Blane. BF's brother and wife did some photos with the Rev - and they came out hilarious. Honestly, wedding ceremonies tend to take forever or people may feel like they do, but Rev Blane made his 15ish minutes of talking go by like it was 5 mins.

    My husband and I are from NJ and had to find a minister to marry us in Napa, so I googled..."ministers in Napa." It came up with Reverend Blane and then I came here to read the reviews. Wow, were they dead on. Reverend Blane is the absolute best! We first met him at his house and talked for 2 hours, just about...life. He greeted both of us at his door with a huge hug and made us feel right at ease. At our ceremony on 7/24 he made us laugh and personalized our wedding to make it so special like no one else could. He added a little surprise at the end, that we will never forget. Two weeks later, people are still talking about him. If you get a chance, book Reverend Blane for your wedding! You won't be disappointed!

    We had the absolute honor of having Reverend Ellsworth perform our ceremony. We are a Newly Wedded Same Sex couple. Not only was he prompt, eloquent and caring, but he also made our guests laugh and feel at ease. His affirmations and generous spirit will make any ceremony feel gently commanded and be perfectly personalized to you and your loved ones. Thank you Blane!

Before our wedding, Kimberly walked us through exactly the steps we should take to have a seamless ceremony. How to pass the flowers, where to stand, etc. No fumbling around up there in front of your guests because she really guides you on how to do it perfectly. On the day of, Kimberly did a wonderful job. She was clear and enunciated, and truly gave us a beautiful ceremony. I even watched the video of the big day and was blown away.

I was in Napa with my fiancé looking for a venue. Sonja was able to meet with us the last day of our visit to Napa and without hesitation, jumped in our car to try and squeeze in some venues before our flight back to LA. She took us to the most amazing private estate in Napa that we fell in love with. After we came back to LA, we had many back and forth emails and were weighing our option for a while before committing to a place. Throughout this process, Sonja remained patient and friendly. She is very prompt with her communication and while we took a while to decide, she was always there willing to answer any questions we had. Due to our personal considerations and timing, we decided to do our wedding in our hometown after all. However, i can't recommend Sonja enough as a planner in the Napa area.

Tan at the recommendation of our wedding coordinator, With Grace and Love, and I'm so grateful for the connection! Rev.Tan service's were pretty straightforward and given our wedding plans changing significantly due to COVID we still needed someone to officiate for our party of 11. The idea of crafting a wedding ceremony seems a bit daunting but they share a great program that helps the couple craft the perfect ceremony unique to them. I found the program to be easy to use and so helpful in mapping out the narrative. I felt super confident going into our ceremony having reviewed the script beforehand. There were no surprises. Rev. Tan was readily available in the lead up to the day with some tips on the order of the readings and even gave us some pointers on crafting our personal vows. I especially appreciate him respecting our request to wear a face mask during our event. It's little details that really resonated with me given the times. He took care of our marriage license, sent us an image of the signed doc, and mailed it off to the county. Overall, I was so pleased with the ease of his service. I do hope to take him up on his offer for coffee one day when the world settles down a bit. Forever grateful he officiated our micro wedding!
