Testimonials
“My husband and I are very happy that we worked with Vancouver Officiant! Richard Teng was very professional and patient. He explained everything in detail which gave us a worry free experience, and he was very accommodating to our last minute changes. His professional tone of voice and sense of humour brought both happy tears and laughter during our wedding. Richard is also fluent in Mandarin, so some of my family members were able to enjoy the ceremony. I would very much recommend Richard and Vancouver Officiant!”
“We just wanted to reach out to express a huge thank you for officiating our ceremony at the Hive! It’s been a whirlwind week after everything but we were so glad and grateful to have Richard marry us. His calm presence, kind demeanor, and help with providing structure and support through the ceremony was so so valuable and really made our short but sweet gathering a special one.
And in general thank you for the smooth and easy process, and for your guidance on what was best suited to our quirky but fun little ceremony.
With big appreciation and best wishes,”
