    Flexible and Professional

    Don did a wonderful job! Coming from out of town we were nervous about how we would get to officiate and where would have the picture perfect HMB ceremony. Don was very reassuring, communicative, and even coordinated location and time with our photographer. He brought very good energy as well. Would highly recommend!

    Exact kind of person you'd want as an officiant

    Don was exactly the kind of officiant we were looking for. Very professional but also easy going and calming during the stressful wedding planning period. On the day of, Don did a great job in delivering the ceremony, while incorporating funny jokes and not making it sound super stiff. He was also super punctual and efficient. He's not the kind of person who would try to steal the show, as it's your day! We were very lucky and thankful to have Don as our officiant on our special day.

    We are so happy to have Don as our wedding officiant and he did an absolutely incredible job. He go through every details with us before the wedding and personalize our ceremony according to our requirements. It is a wedding we will remember forever. Our parents are quite satisfied with the ceremony and my guest said this is the best wedding ceremony she has ever been

    fantastic job!

    Don was incredibly kind hearted, warm, and felt like he knew us. When we met him, we knew he was the right person to officiate for us. He asked us thought provoking questions about our relationship and encouraged us to write letters to each other which we now cherish. The ceremony was the perfect amount of time, and he did a fantastic job holding everything together. I never write reviews but we just had our 3 year anniversary and it reminded me about Don. Thank you Don. Sorry it took me so long to write a review. We were so happy to have you be a part of our big day!

    Lovely and Professional

    Such a lovely experience working with Rev. Don!

    From the very start he was accommodating and very detailed and really got to know me and my fiance now husband. He also guided us through start to finish and everything in between. From the verses to the vows, to how the rings were going to be delivered. He made us feel very comfortable during the ceremony and also gave us a few tips before hand.

    We are very blessed to have Rev. Don officiate our One Hour Wedding at the San Francisco City Hall.

    Thank you so much again for being part of our beautiful day!

    Review of Don Mulford Weddings

    Don was a perfect fit for our wedding and we couldn't be happier with how he made our ceremony incredibly special and personal. His recommendation to write letters to each other instead of vows made our ceremony very memorable and personal not only for us but for our guests as well, who were able to get to know us even more as a couple. Don also shared a few stories from our life together creating an intimate yet lighthearted ceremony.
    We absolutely loved Don's calming demeanor that helped us stay relaxed during one of the most important days of our lives.
    Don really cares about the couples he works with providing a truly genuine and unique experience for each and every one of them.

    Don was professional, kind, and calming. He drafted an excellent ceremony proposal and walk us through each section. He also asked us probing questions to personalize our ceremony. Best of all, he was very easy to work with!

    Great connection!

    Don was fantastic! He met us at a coffee shop and we just sat and had small chit chat. It was like we'd known him for years. He went over the ceremony with us and really wanted to make a connection with our story. On the day of the wedding, he was great and spoke eloquently. We will definitely take him up on his offer to grab coffee when we feel like we just want to chat.

    Great Experience!

    Don is very professional and responsible. When we first connected, he shared us his thoughts and collected our feedbacks, with appropriate suggestions. We had a small wedding with a few friends and Don made the ceremony very comfortable, personal but sincere. Don has a sense of humor and made our guests laughing during the event. Thank you Don for making our big day so beautiful!

    Thank you Ying so much!
    I really enjoyed our day, with the blustery wind and churning ocean.
    Enjoy and God bless,

    Wonderful wedding

    We are so lucky to have Don as our wedding officiant. Dan has given us great advice about how to prepare and arranged everything perfectly. We couldn't ask for anything more.

    Great Personalized Service

    We contacted Don at the last minute when our other options fell through. Luckily he was there to help. After getting a little information from us he was able to, with short notice, create a wonderfully personalized ceremony. The event was outdoors and at night. There were supposed to be lights but it took place primarily in the dark. Unexpectedly, without being able to refer to any of his notes or documents, he was still able to conduct a very smooth and personal ceremony. I recommend him highly. -Craig

    Exceptional!!!

    Don Mulford officiated our wedding in October 2018 and was exceptional! Leading up to the wedding, Don was always available for any questions or concerns. He performed our ceremony the way we wanted it and helped us make our big day a success. Very professional and lots of experience!! Highly recommend him. 5/5stars, two thumbs up all the way around.

    Pleasant and Professional!

    Very professional and was excellent at the altar! Don is truly genuine in his line of work and keeps things light during the ceremony but also stays in line with what your visions are for your wedding. Would definitely recommend him to anyone considering him, just meet him in person and you will know!

    Wonderful experience with Rev. Mulford

    The ceremony by Rev Mulford was amazing! He was able to personalize our stories and related our best courting experiences to our friends and family! At the most stressful moments, he was able to pray with us to give strength and peace so that we would be able to enjoy the wondrous ceremoney. We would highly recommend!

    Don Mulford Weddings's reply:

    Thanks so much Julian!!
    Happy New Year to you two!
    Let me know if I can be of any assistance down the line,

    Kind officiant with great advice!

    Reverend Don gave us wonderful advice leading up to our wedding day. We worked back and forth to create a ceremony with meaningful vows, verses, and a unique unity tree portion. Throughout our entire planning process Don would answer phone calls and emails very quickly. He always gave us kind advice regarding what has worked/not worked so well at previous weddings. He was respectful of our wishes every step of the way. We can not recommend him enough!

    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. He got to know us and it showed through on our wedding day. Thank you, Don, for a wonderful ceremony that we will always remember!

    My Wife and I could not have imagined a kinder more compassionate person to perform our vows. Don performed our ceremony flawlessly and in a manner we could not have designed - his warmth and humor contributed to our perfect day.

    Wonderful!

    Reverend Mulford was a wonderful officiant at our wedding. We had a special request to work with a Catholic Priest to also participate in the ceremony for the Catholic side of the family. It turned out beautifully, thanks to Reverend Mulford. We're so thankful to have had him.

    Beyond Spectacular!

    Don officiated our garden wedding on April 4, 2018 at our home in Woodside, CA. My husband and I met him at a local coffee shop and loved his kind, strong, laidback, humorous, yet, professional personality. I knew in an instant, Don was what I was hoping for in an officiant. He was very informative about the process, kept in-touch with us as the day drew closer to ensure all the bases were covered. He came to our house prior to the ceremony to view the garden and also performed a pre wedding rehearsal. Don personalized our ceremony by encouraging us to write a letter to each other and read them at the ceremony. At first, I thought this task was a nice touch, but, daunting. Today, my letter from my husband stays very close to my heart; I read it often and it is my most cherished possession. All of our guests were charmed by Don’s ability to bring laughter, tears of joy and meaning to our very special day. I highly recommend Don for a stress free, beyond spectacular experience! Thank you so very much! Robin & David.

    We always planned to have Don officiate our wedding, and he performed our ceremony exactly as we had hoped! Don's ease, warmth, and leadership qualities make the whole wedding party feel comfortable right from the start. Don has a unique ability to keep the feel of the day light but professional, instilling the serious commitment which is taking place, but peppering it with humor when needed. Every time I felt a moment of stress, one glance towards Don helped remind us, that we are among friends who love us, and that he is there as our loyal guide. Don takes the time to get to know you in face-to-face meetings, and tailor his sermon to suit your story, as well as your tastes and religious beliefs. We so appreciated his relaxed but strong presence. Don is a natural at public speaking, commanding the attention of the guests, balanced with loving and heartfelt words in his oratory. He includes stories from his own experiences, with your story together, into the moment of the day, and what it means for the future. We highly recommend Don Mulford for your wedding!
