Mike Penninga was absolutely amazing! Our justice of the peace for unseen circumstances fell through less than 24 hrs before and Mike came through in time and was incredible and all the guests loved his vows he did!

Vancouver Officiant made it every easy to find the perfect match for our Special Day! Mike Penninga did an AMAZING job. He took the time to learn about Taylor and I, so it felt like he had knew us for years and years. He put us at ease on the big day, helping guide us through everything step by step. So many of our friends and family members asked us “where did you find Mike, he’s great!” Thanks again for everything!
— Taylor & Spencer

Mike was absolutely amazing officiating our wedding. We had so many compliments on how amazing the ceremony was and how people felt truly inspired by him and his advice. I will most definitely be recommending Mike to any and all of my friends and family getting married. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to help us get married!
