I can't say enough great things about this woman. We came across Rev.D, and she was the biggest blessing! She was so responsive, and answered any questions I had. She was so sweet, and made us feel so comfortable and calmed any nerves we had on our big day! I have seen so many officiants run out after the ceremony concludes and she stayed until I was available to even ask for our marriage license - like wow!!! She talked with our guests, and joined in on some of our photos… and the best part too- she dropped off our marriage license for us, and sent us a confirmation so we didn’t have to stress about it ! I also forgot to ask if she could step to the side for our kiss photo at the ceremony and completely forgot…. She did it on her own!! Just all around an amazing person, and I can’t say enough great things! She truly went the extra mile and was a step above the rest in every little detail for our wedding. We will forever remember our special day and know that she was a BIG part of it!
Rev D. was a pleasure to work with. She was friendly, very informative, and put us both at ease during our ceremony. In the early stages of wedding planning, she provided information on attaining our marriage certificate, as well as providing many examples of different ceremonies so that we were able to piece together our perfect ceremony.
We love Reverend D.. She did marry on short notice when we eloped earlier this year. She was fantastic attending to our every need for 3 hours. I would strongly recommend Reverend D to officiate your upcoming wedding.
I found Rev D through my wedding coordinator. After reading the great reviews and I'm happy to leave one now that our special day has passed. I cannot say enough good things about Rev. D! She made my experience SO easy did a really great job. True professional. Thank you Rev D for being a part of our special day!!
Dear Reverend Deanna, We wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for the beautiful ceremony you conducted at our wedding. Your words were touching, and you managed to capture the essence of our relationship perfectly. Your calm and reassuring presence helped us feel at ease during such an emotional moment. Our families and friends also commented on how lovely the ceremony was and how much they appreciated your warm and inclusive approach. Thank you for making our special day even more memorable. We are truly grateful for your guidance and support. Love, The Timko's
Rev Deanna was truly a pleasure to work with. We were not looking for a religious ceremony and she helped us make the ceremony so memorable and fitting to us and our relationship. She was a calming presence from day 1 to walking down the aisle and was so easy to work with. She provided plenty of resources but still collaborated with us to make the ceremony personable. I can’t say enough about how special Rev Deanna made this day for us!!
Rev. Deanna Lancaster was a pleasure and an honor to work with. She provided a ton of scripts of ceremonies she has performed for us to build our ceremony off of. We didn't realize we had the option to use prewritten vows until we read her scripts and that was a relief to discover. Choosing her was one of the best decisions we could have made because our ceremony is still my favorite part of the entire day. We made a Frankenstein of a script from all the ones she provided, she sent her updates, and we got a the exact ceremony we wanted. She knew to move out of the way for the ceremony kiss and performed the ceremony beautifully. After the ceremony, she handled our marriage license (in an extremely timely manner) and let us know as soon as everything was finalized and official! Then she included the scanned version of our license on the email and provided a cute certificate keepsake on the day of. It was just so wonderful to have her around on our wedding day and for that I am truly thankful.
Rev. Deanna was fabulous! She came highly recommended by LLI where we had our wedding, and was on their preferred vendor list. I knew I needed her professionalism and expertise, when we first meet via email. A few months before our wedding day, she shared several examples of wedding vows she had done, so to give me many options of how to build the service. We incorporated a unity candle lighting ceremony into our vows, and all our guests were amazed at her beautiful service. Rev. Deanna was a rock for me in the moments leading up to me walking out to meet my groom. She shared some kind words of wisdom, and I couldn't be more thankful. She filed our certificate with the county the very next business day and scanned a signed copy to me via email, and told me we were official. I HIGHLY recommend Rev. Deanna for anyone needing to contract an officiant for their special day!
We are thrilled to share our heartfelt appreciation for Reverend Deanna, who officiated our wedding. From the very start, Reverend Deanna made the entire process remarkably easy and stress-free. Her warm demeanor and thoughtful guidance ensured that our special day went off without a hitch. Reverend Deanna took the time to understand our vision and incorporated our personal touches seamlessly into the ceremony. Her calming presence and genuine care added a beautiful, serene atmosphere to our vows. We felt supported and understood every step of the way. We couldn’t have asked for a more dedicated and compassionate officiant. Thank you, Reverend Deanna, for making our wedding day truly unforgettable!
Finding an officiant for our wedding was a very daunting task; neither I nor my now-husband knew exactly what we were looking for or where to start. I found Rev. D via The Knot & set up a call with her based on her wonderful reviews-- which I can now say are 100% accurate! Rev. D was wonderful to work with from start to finish. When I told her I wasn't sure where to start with the ceremony, she graciously sent over 15 - 20 scripts from her previous weddings to use as a jumping-off point. I gave her back a Frankenstein-esque mash-up of the parts of the ceremonies that resonated with us & she suggested important tweaks to help with the flow of the ceremony. When Rev. D arrived on Wedding Day, she made sure to find both of us to ease any worries/ answer any last-minute questions. She officiated our ceremony flawlessly & it felt that much more special given that it was 100% tailored to us. I would absolutely recommend booking Rev. D to anyone looking for a beautiful, personalized, well-run ceremony (& all the help that it takes to get there)!
Reverend Deanna was an absolute joy to work with! Her ceremony was very beautiful and she helped my husband feel calm during the ceremony. When we ran into some issues with making the ceremony legally binding, Reverend went out of her way to accommodate us and make sure everything was legal the day prior to the wedding.
Reverend Deanna was so awesome and kind. Incredibly accommodating and helpful throughout the whole process. She went above and beyond to learn a specific hand fasting knot in order to give us exactly what we wanted. Reverend D gave me a small pep talk before the ceremony that made me feel so much better with my nerves. I’d recommend her 10/10 times.
Rev D was the best officiant we could've asked for! My now husband and I were worried about finding someone to officiate because we aren't super religious. Deanna was responsive, talked with us on the phone, eased our concerns, and even explained the marriage license process. She also sent us around 20 examples of ceremonies she's performed previously so we could create a ceremony that reflects us as a couple. There was no issue with how religious or secular the ceremony was, and she even said a blessing before our dinner reception. If I could give 6 stars I would - Rev D was the BEST and several of my wedding guests complimented how well-spoken she was! You will be in good hands working with her!
Working with Reverend Deanna was so easy and fun. She was able to give many tips and even give examples of previous ceremonies. I did not have to stress at all! She was there through the entire process, and we could not have done it without her guidance! The wedding day was perfect, and she played such a big role in that!
Rev D was the best officiant we could have asked for. From the moment we first talked with her on the phone, we knew she was the person to officiate our special day. We were able to create our own ceremony that best fit us as a couple using elements from previous ceremonies she performed/shared with us. She genuinely loves what she does and learning about the love stories of each couple she works with. Rev D made us feel special and cared for. Also, she handles sending off the marriage license to the respective County Probate Offices and sends through confirmation once it has been received so you know things are official! You are in the most amazing hands working with Rev D. Thank you, Deanna, for being an important part of our wedding and making it the most perfect day!
Rev D put together our ceremony beautifully! She walked me through the process and made it so incredibly easy. We gave her a general outline of what we wanted and she was able to bring that to life during the ceremony. I couldn't recommend her enough!
Rev D was so easy to communicate with to plan our wedding. She was flexible and accommodating. The service was beautiful and meaningful with the right balance of spirituality and levity. You cannot go wrong with Rev D. - Jenny and Tom
Deanna did an incredible job with our wedding! She helped us to design the exact ceremony that we wanted, and was even willing to work with us on Indonesian elements that we wanted to incorporate as well. She is very kind, punctual, and effective. Highly recommend her!
Deanna was the perfect officiant for our wedding ceremony. She was very responsive and helpful over email, sending us plenty of scripts to work off of and helped us create one that was perfect for what we wanted. In person, she was extremely delightful and made us very comfortable up at the altar. So glad we were able to work with Deanna!
Rev. D was fantastic! We used her as our officiant on the recommendation of our wedding planner, Jackie Raez. Rev. D made my wife and I feel very comfortable throughout every step of the process. My wife is Catholic and I am non-religious and Rev. D was very sensitive to that. On the day of the wedding Rev. D made us both feel very comfortable from start to finish. As I was standing at the alter waiting for my bride to come down Rev. D helped to calm my nerves. Our friends and family gave many compliments about Rev. D and her words and presence. She maintained a genuine happiness and love for us as well as our special day. We would definitely recommend her for others. 10/10.
We are so thankful that we chose Rev D to officiate our recent wedding! She was responsive, helpful and calmed my partner and I's nerves before walking to the altar. She allows you to curate the perfect ceremony for you and we are so thankful for her. SHE'S THE BEST!
We met Reverend Deanna through our wedding coordinator. She was highly recommended but what really sold us was when speaking with other vendors, for example our harpist, they gushed over working with her. We had a very small wedding on a week day. Reverend Deanna made us feel like we were having a huge Saturday wedding and were just as important. All questions we had during the process were answered timely, she worked closely with us to develop our ceremony and she had all the paperwork needed and handled filing our marriage certificate. She was truly a blessing!
Finding an officiant was one of my main concerns for my wedding day. my now husband and I had contacted a few that we didn't match well with, when we decided to reach out to Reverend Deanna. From the first phone call she was a perfect fit! She made us feel welcome, heard and most of all comfortable. When we discussed content of the ceremony, she tailored the entire thing to exactly what we wanted. And when it came to the actual day she made sure everything went smoothly and perfect! I could not recommend her enough!
Deanna is an amazing officiant. She helped us make the perfect ceremony for us and kept the ceremony running smoothly. She made us so comfortable at rehearsal and the day of. You won't go wrong choosing Deanna!
Reverend Deanna is truly magnificent!! A real gem! She helped my husband and I navigate through our very non-traditional wedding ceremony and we ended up with the perfect set of vows, readings, words, etc. Since our wedding was during COVID we were only able to have zoom meetings with Rev. Deanna. However, she made them feel so personable and like we were actually talking with her in person every time. The day of the wedding she came and checked on both of us and shared kind words and her expertise to help us through the day. I highly recommend her and her services!! She captivates the crowd and she is a true friend, by your side no matter what. She will not disappoint anyone who decides to have her be the officiant on their special day!! <3
Reverend Deanna was so sweet and so amazing! She was extremely helpful and responsive through the entire process!
We had a wonderful time with Rev D! She is extremely friendly and makes you and your family feel extremely relaxed and comfortable. She worked with us a devise the perfect ceremony just for us. I had numerous people come up to me after the wedding so told me how perfect it was. We couldn’t be happier! Wedding at The Atrium
Reverend Deanna is absolutely amazing! She was such a pleasure to work with from day one, for both our original wedding date and our postponed wedding date. Reverend Deanna made us feel so taken care of and supported throughout the entire experience, which certainly did not go as planned. After cancelling our original wedding due to Covid, we decided to plan a ceremony with only two weeks notice. She was available and incredibly helpful in getting us prepared, even while we were stressing with so little time. I cannot recommend Reverend Deanna enough!
Reverend Deanna was an absolute pleasure to work with! She replied to all my messages so quickly, send tons of options for the ceremony script, and was there for everything! We decided to go with a different script and she worked with it without any problems at all! She was there for the rehearsal, the wedding, and even stayed to say the blessing before the reception meal was served. To add to this, she was also so calm and collected it brought a sense of tranquility to the event which was much needed as we were so nervous! Wedding planning is stressful enough so hiring a reliable and pleasant reverend was a relieve. Thanks Reverend D.!
Deanna was amazing! She was a huge help in perfecting our ceremony style and very responsive. She is very kind and we could not be happier in our choice to have had her as our officiant. The day of the wedding went perfectly as well. Did not have to worry about her part at all which was very nice.
Reverend Lancaster was amazing! She was so helpful throughout the planning process. She was prepared for everything and helped us with every detail we were not prepared for. Not only was she so thoughtful and helpful but she is such a genuinely nice person, it made our ceremony even more meaningful and joyous. I would definitely recommend her for anyone, she is so flexible and will work with you to make sure each detail is perfect.<br /><br /> Wedding at Lanier Islands
I would recommend Rev. Lancaster to anyone that is looking for a minister for their wedding! She is a professional who knows what she is doing. She helped us in writing our vows. She put us at ease on our wedding day and she calmly directed us to where we needed to be. We could not be more pleased with our decision to select her to officiate our wedding. Thank you Deanna!
She did a wonderful job! Contacted us throughout the process just to check in and see if she could help in any way. She was punctual, friendly, and acted as if she'd known us forever! Thank you so much for all you did to make our day perfect :)
Reverend Deanna was an absolute pleasure to work with from the start. She was so helpful with suggestions for our ceremony and even helped us with our wedding vows that best fit our personal lives. I would highly recommend her for your wedding ceremony, you will be pleasantly surprised with her work!
Deanna is amazing. From the first time we spoke over the phone, I knew she was the voice of our wedding. She was so helpful throughout the planning process. She worked with me until we had the perfect words for our day. On the day of my wedding she did everything from calm my nerves to fan me when I was a little warm. Amazing!!! I would recommend her service to anyone.
Rev. D performed our ceremony on September 27, 2008, and it was beautiful! She was extremely helpful throughout the whole process! From the very beginning she was willing to help me out on putting together my ceremony, and also helped me to include a memory flower ceremony passage. She was wonderful to work with and we consider her part of the family! After performing the ceremony for my brother, as well as my mother's wedding earlier this year, we knew that we wanted her to be the person to marry us on our special day! I would recommend her to anyone, and she is a very wonderful and amazing person!
Reverend Deanna Lancaster was absolutely perfect for our wedding. She was extremely professional, always on time, easy to work with, and had a great personality and warm heart. The first time we met with her she made us feel completely relaxed. She worked with us to make sure that our ceremony was exactly what we wanted and made us feel so special. She even came into our dressing room right before the ceremony to make sure we were okay and checked to see if we needed anything. She was wonderful from beginning to end and we will never forget her.
Rev Deanna performed our ceremony on 11/1/08 and gave us more than we could ever ask for! Five stars aren't enough for her! She helped us with our vows and was a center of calm on the day of our ceremony. We just can't say enough about her. She is such a nice, sweet professional and we highly recommend her!
We met with several reverends while we were planning our wedding and were very impressed with Deanna. She was extremely personable and professional. We planned our ceremony using online resources and wedding ceremony samples that Deanna provided us with. The ceremony turned out FANTASTIC. Deanna did a great job and we received tons of compliments about the ceremony. We highly recommend Deanna (we even have friends who attended our wedding that want to use her when THEY get married)!
Rev. Deanna Lancaster was incredible as our wedding officiant. From our first phone call she set me at ease and was easy to work with. She responds to emails and phone calls promptly and was always on time. I particularly appreciate her open-minded approach to all different types of ceremonies. She allowed us to collaborate on the language of the ceremony to ensure it was personal and honest as well as beautiful. Rev D is both laid-back and professional, funny and kind, and we are just lucky we found her!
Reverend Deanna was fantastic. She is animated, warm and sincere. Her delivery and presence are outstanding. We could not have made a better choice than Rev D.
Reverend Deanna Lancaster is fantastic! I found "Rev D" on the local Knot board. There were multiple great comments about her so I trusted my fellow "knotties" on their recommendation. She was well worth it! Rev D was very quick to respond to questions, easy to reach via email or phone. She offered multiple examples of ceremonies to help identify what type of ceremony we wanted. She took the time to get to know us a little bit and hear our preferences and then customized a ceremony that we were thrilled with. She was on time for the rehearsal and the ceremony despite terrible traffic! Overall Reverend Deanna Lancaster made us feel important, comfortable and at ease. All of our guests commented on what a great service she provided. We would definitely recommend her services! Thank you Rev D!
I HIGHLY recommend Reverend Deanna Lancaster for your wedding. She was friendly, professional and made me and my wedding party feel completely comfortable. I wanted an officiant that wouldn't be "stiff" or "impersonal" and Deanna was perfect. It felt like having a close friend preforming our wedding even though I had just met her. So if you are still looking for someone else, stop now. Reverend Deanna Lancaster is the perfect officiant for any type of wedding ceremony!!!!!
We absolutely LOVED Reverend Deanna Lancaster! About a year before the wedding, we met with Rev D and booked her for our wedding. Throughtout the year before the wedding, Rev D kept in touch with me via email and made herself available for assistance. I even received e-cards from her during the holidays. According to my husband, he was extremely nervous and emotional the day of the wedding and she took time to give him a pep talk...even when he was standing at the alter waiting for me to walk down the aisle. She helped him calm down and ease his emotions. During the ceremony, my husband was supposed to receive the rings from his best man. Instead, he yelled out our two dogs names and they came running out from the crowd surprising me. I started to tear up and I looked back at Rev D...she too was tearing up. My husband and I cannot say enough about Reverend Deanna Lancaster. We are so delighted that she was apart of our special day.
Rev D was just such a pleasure to work with. From our initial phone conversation to meeting her to her being next to us on our wedding day she was a professional and also had become a friend along the way. I booked her way in advance and she always sent emails checking on us and how planning was going. She gave us several vendor recommendations. What a wonderful person. I feel blessed to have had her in our wedding.
I would highly recommend Rev. Deanna Lancaster! From our first meeting, we hit it off with her. It was meant to be an hour meeting to get to know one another and the next thing we knew 4 hours had passed just chit chatting! She was so accommodating through the whole pre-wedding preparations, up until the day of while things were still being added. She gave us samples for ideas and advice from her experiences to help personalize our ceremony. She always responded to us quickly and would contact us periodically to touch base and make sure we were all still on the same page. Not only was she the most reasonable price-wise, but she was by far the best person for the job! She kept us at ease and reassured us when we needed it! There are not enough words to express how thankful we were to have her be such a huge part of our big day! And I'm sure she'll do the same for everyone else! Thanks!! Courtney & Mike Sedita
My husband and I wanted a simple, non-denominational ceremony and contacted Reverend Deanna. She was wonderful! She met with us, answered all our questions, and offered many fantastic and varied ceremony options. "Reverend D" listened to our ideas and offered several of her own we found invaluable. We had exactly the ceremony we wanted, and we are still getting compliments on it - all thanks to Reverend Deanna!
Rev Deanna was wonderful. Our ceremony could not have been any better. After speaking with her about what we wanted in the ceremony she put together the perfect ceremony. She was great to work with and such a wonderful support on our special day.
Rev. D. was the very very best! Professional and kind with a wonderful personality! She was like having a close friend marry us. I would highly recommend.
Rev Deanna was such a joy to work with! She performed a wonderful ceremony and was extremely professional and personal. We will recommend her to everyone we know! We're looking forward to having her renew our vows in 10 years! Thank you for everything Rev D.!!
Rev. Deanna Lancaster was kind, flexible, and so sweet! She made us feel so comfortable with the process of planning our unique ceremony where most of the bridal party was children. Everyone agreed that the ceremony embodied our values and that it was heartfelt and special. We appreciate all of the Rev.'s help, enthusiasm, and support. I would recommend her to anyone--especially for brides who need a calm influence under stress.:)
Reverend Lancaster was absolutely wonderful! She was so sweet and did the ceremony PERFECT! I would recommend her for any special event!! Thank you so much for your service Rev. D :)
We HIGHLY recommend Rev. Deanna Lancaster for your wedding. She is friendly, professional and made us and our wedding party feel at ease and comfortable. We wanted someone that wouldn't be stuffy or impersonal and Deanna was so perfect. From the beginning, she was like to talking to an old friend and preformed our wedding from those conversations as though she were an long time family friend. She helped us make the ceremony fit our personalities. All of our guests loved how she made everyone feel as though "they" were part of the ceremony too. If you are looking for someone to officiate, look no further. Reverend Deanna Lancaster is the perfect officiant for any type of wedding ceremony!
Deanna is one of the best vendors I had the pleasure to work with. Her communication was excellent and very prompt. I knew just from emailing her that she would be a great person to work with. When I met her in person, that confirmed it. She was willing to work with us for a custom ceremony. We gave her the body of the ceremony that we wanted and she added some of her touches. She worked with us until we came up with a ceremony that was perfect for us. Again, I would highly recommend her to anyone getting married in the Atlanta area. It was truly a blessing to find her. Thank you Deanna
We loved Rev. Lancaster! She made our ceremony so beautiful and personal. Our families continue to rave about her services. Rev. Lancaster made our day special. You will not be disappointed if you use her services! She is so sweet and genuine. I can't imagine finding a better person to make your day special and memorable!
Reverend Deanna is truly one of the kindest people I have ever met! She made our wedding day so beautiful with her calm energy and enthusiasm for the ceremony. From the day I began speaking with Rev. Deanna, she made me feel like I had a new friend. She kept me calm when things were seeming to go awry, and she was very diligent in keeping in touch - from getting the cermony script just the way I wanted it, to making sure everything was ready for the rehearsal and ceremony. She gave us plenty of ceremony script examples to guide us in making our own, and she offered advice when we were unsure about things. If you want a Reverend who will make your wedding day happy, fun, and truly complete, Rev. Deanna is the person to choose!
We met Rev. Deanna back in January. From that first meeting, we instantly knew we liked her. She is such a genuinely wonderful person. We had no idea what we would do for our vows and ceremony. She sent us samples and from those we were able to create a beautiful and memorable ceremony. I think it's truly important to have people around you who care about you and your wedding and Rev. Deanna does that every step of the way! I'm so happy we found her and that she was part of our day!
The first time we spoke to Reverend Deanna D. Lancaster we knew that she was the one we wanted to marry us. She was so nice and very helpful in planning our ceremony. We were very busy in the weeks before the wedding and so we had to plan everything through emails and phone calls. She always responded back in a timely manner and answered any questions we might have had. She also gave us very helpful feedback and also recommendations for our ceremony. The day of the wedding Reverend Deanna was on-time and performed our ceremony exactly how we wanted. She made our day really special. She also gave us a very lovely gift! I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone to marry them and have a beautiful ceremony!
Rev. Deanna officiated our wedding on Nov. 7, 2009 in Helen, GA. Our dream was to have a private and intimate outdoor wedding ceremony in Fall's splendor. Rev. Deanna was not only willing to travel well into the GA mountains for us, but she assisted us in preparing our ceremony and making it more beautiful than we dreamed. In regards to her professionalism, Rev. Deanna was wonderful, accommodating, patient, and a blessing. We highly recommend her services. Gratefully Yours, Chad and Yana Campbell
Thank you for performing such a spectacular service on our big day. From the moment we first spoke with you, we knew you were that special someone, who would make our day that much more cherished. Your kind smile and your spunky personality kept everyone laughing and focused on the bride and groom. Several of our guests told us what a great job you did and we couldn't agree more. The wedding was exactly what we wanted. We have watched the video, and are still just so happy with everything. We will never forget this special moment! It's a perfect beginning for our new life. Thank you, Deanna!
She is a very kind hearted person. Not overbearing at all and although I met her 10 mins before she married us, she is and will always be a memorable part of our wedding ceremony.
I would definitely recommend Reverend Deanna Lancaster. She follows up on emails promptly, has a nice word document library of sample ceremonies, willing to modify the ceremony to the bride and groom's tastes, and gives feedback after the wedding such as marriage license processing.
Rev. D was absolutely the best from the moment we first met her. She made everything so easy for us. We felt like we had known her and been friends with her for a very long time. Our ceremony was beautiful and she did an awesome job! I know that we can count on her being our lifelong friend. She sent me tons of ceremonies to go through and I was able to take things from them and make our own ceremony. She just tweaked it a little bit and it was a very moving ceremony. All our guests loved it and several were teary-eyed. Rev. D knew how emotional my hubby was and helped him out tremendously. We're humorous people so she laughed along with us during our ceremony so we could ease the nervousness. I highly recommend her services to anyone getting married. You won't find anyone better to perform your ceremony! We love you Rev. D!
Rev. Deanna Lancaster does make you feel like you've known her forever. She has the best personality to do weddings. She is extremely helpful. She offered some ceremony wording for us to get ideas and helped us organize our ceremony to fit us to a T. We could not have chosen a better person to have performed our ceremony. I am very pleased and our family is still talking about how lovely and wonderful she was. She helped with the rehearsal and getting us set up and organized right and making sure everyone felt comfortable. She was also very understanding when we were late to our own rehearsal she didn't once make us feel uncomfortable or anything she welcomed us with open arms from the get go. I recommend anyone that's getting married you will not be disappointed by her!!!! Rev Deanna is Phenomenal....you won't regret choosing her! She helps with any way that she can and above and beyond that. I am thankful that we had chosen her! Thank you!!!
Reverent Deanna preformed our ceremony on Saturday, January 23rd and I couldn't come up with enough nice things to say about her. She met with us prior to the ceremony and spoke with us about what exactly we would want on our special day. We communicated weekly about the details and she preformed the most incredible ceremony. I was a little stressed at the rehearsal, but she helped calm us all down in a very unique way. The ceremony was a day of true beauty and I am so thankful to Deanna. If you are considering her, DO IT! She is the best!
Rev. Deanna Lancaster was AWESOME! She immediately makes you feel like you have known her for years! Her personality is warm, bubbly, friendly, and upbeat. She offered up many sample ceremonies that helped us get ideas for our own ceremony. Then she helped us create a ceremony that was unique to our personality. She is very professional and thorough. She was also very sweet in giving us a wedding gift and a card of encouragement on our wedding day. Overall. GREAT service!
Ryan and I absolutely loved working with Rev D! She answered all of our questions and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy with every aspect of our wedding. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you Rev D for all of your thoughtful advice, warm words and for being a part of our wonderful day!
Reverend D is one of the jolliest, coolest and friendliest officiants you could have for your wedding. After we first contacted her, she sent us several of her past ceremonies by email. This helped us immensely in writing our own. She is happy to conduct the ceremony the way her clients want it; religious or secular, traditional or novel (no skydiving, though, she did say :), with or without a rehearsal. You'll be glad you started off your married life with her!!
Thank you for you patience and professionalism. You were awesome! You made us feel comfortable and made it painless. The ceremony was beautiful and it was one we will always remember. We will never forget the service you provided us on this very special day!! You are the best! God Bless Love Jodie and Tiffany
We called Rev. Deanna THE DAY BEFORE out wedding and asked if she was available. Not only did she make herself available to us, she was thrilled to part of our wedding day. Rev. D is so friendly and uplifting. She made us feel comfortable while we stood in front of all of our friends and family saying our vows. It was like having a best friend marry us. She kept us smiling the entire time and helped calm our nerves. Our family was thrilled with our choice in officiant and boasted about her throughout the reception! She is fantastic!! We highly recommend her.
Deanna Lancaster is an angel!! Patrick and I were married Sunday, June 20, 2010. Not only it being our "Big Day" but also Father's Day. Deanna worked with us to include a wonderful Father's Day poem and allowed us to honor our fathers, as well as, all the other fathers with us. Every time we spoke with her, you could tell she was smiling! She puts even the most nervous bride at ease! As soon as I heard her voice welcoming everyone and the familiar words of our ceremony (which she helped us with) all of the nervous excitement left and I looked into Patrick's eyes and knew it was meant to be! Deanna was very professional, on time, loving, and we couldn't have asked for a better person to guide us into our vows! She helped us with the wording of the ceremony, never changing anything, but offering suggestions to make the flow better. She even liked our jokes- hidden among the words! Rev. Deanna Lancaster is a jewel!!
My husband and I agree that Reverend Deana was a pleasure to work with, and we'd recommend her to anyone seeking an officiant. She has a relaxing, laid back style that fit perfectly with what we wanted our casual, outdoor wedding to be. Plus, she made herself available for our rehearsal where she was extremely patient and friendly with all family members -- this put everyone at ease. :) As a result, a number of family members/guests commented to me and my husband on how much they liked her. She was also easy to work with -- we preferred an initial face-to-face meeting, followed by subsequent conversations over email, and she was always on time. we never had to worry whether or not she would show up
Rev. Deanna was amazing to work with! She made my husband and I feel at ease through the entire process. She is so easy and delightful to speak with and we couldn't have been happier with our decision to choose her. She was quick to respond to phone calls and emails and was always willing to be flexible about meeting times and arrangements. My sister recently became engaged and I have already recommended Rev. D to her!
Reverend Deanna Lancaster performed our ceremony on May 8th 2010. We called her only two weeks before the wedding and to our surprise she was able to do the ceremony. She was very friendly and helpful! We had no idea what we wanted our vows to be so she sent us tons of vows to go through so we could put together something of our own. The ceremony was exactly what we wanted! We highly recommend her to anyone looking!! Jessica and Kyle Amlung
Rev. D. performed our ceremony just last weekend (May 29, 2010)&, simply put, she's amazing. We booked her services in December & she stayed on top of our wedding preparations regularly since then. She got to know us & gave us plenty of guidance on the best structure for our ceremony & plenty of examples from previous ceremonies. Leading up to the wedding, she checked in with us regularly, turned around a draft of the wedding ceremony in no time & offered positive feedback on the vows we wrote. The day of the wedding, she arrived early, checked in with both of us individually & made sure we had what we needed. She was absolutely prepared for the ceremony; a detail even our guests noticed. (She printed out our vows & a closing prayer we had chosen on notecards, just so we didn't forget anything. She even had hankies ready to catch any tears.) Rev. D. exudes joy, kindness and love. Just the kind of person you want on your side on your wedding day.
My husband and I highly recommend Deanna Lancaster. We came from two different religious backgrounds, and Deanna helped us come up with a very personalized wedding ceremony that was non-traditional, yet blended both of our religions and personal beliefs. We couldn't have been happier with our ceremony, and we had several comments after the wedding about how sweet and beautiful the ceremony was. We definitely couldn't have done it without Deanna! She made it easy and painless to the point where neither of us were even nervous during our vows! You will not be disappointed if you book Reverend Deanna as your officiant!
I totally recommend Deanna for your wedding. She is great. We love her. She performed our ceremony on July 3rd and was amazing. We had a small wedding party and she make us feel like it was the biggest ever. She was willing to work with us and fulfill all our needs and request. We have 3 dogs and they were part of our wedding party and she was totally OK with that. If you are looking for someone who makes you feel really special and calm Deanna is the one, trust me you won't regret it.
I found Reverend Deanna Lancaster on Atlanta Bridal, and contacted her initially via email. All communications with her were professional, prompt, courteous, and responsive. She provided sample ceremonies and readings, which were a wonderful help and inspiration. She checked in with me several times as the wedding date neared (I was out of state AND had only about a month & a half to plan the wedding), offering help and advice. More importantly, her incredibly warm and caring personality put us all at ease, allowing us to relax and enjoy our wedding. The ceremony was beautiful, tailored for us, and absolutely perfect.
Reverend Deanna was great! She was extremely helpful throughout the wedding planning process. She aided us in developing a unique and personal ceremony. In addition, she has a wonderful voice which complemented our ceremony perfectly. Several of our guests commented on how smoothly the ceremony flowed and how soothing Reverend Deanna’s voice was. We highly recommend her! Colby and Tricia Suttles
Reverend Lancaster was such a joy to work with! When we met her for the first time she had a big smile on her face and was so friendly. We felt like we already knew her! She was willing to do whatever we wanted to make our day special.
From my very first email to the walk down the aisle, Rev. Deanna was extremely efficient, compassionate and put us both at ease. She helped us make our ceremony unique and simple with both traditional and modern ideas. There is no one else I could imagine who would have made our day as special as Rev. Deanna!
I found Reverend Deanna through wedding wire and contacted her via email. She responded in a very prompt and professional manner. She was willing to help us with everything she could. She was indeed a pleasure to work with. I will recommend her to everyone that is getting married! Thank you so much Reverend Deanna! It was my pleasure to work with you!!
Reverend Deanna Lancaster was a pleasure to work with! She was easy to communicate with, very professional, and provided help when we needed it. We wrote our own ceremony and vows, and Reverend Deanna was instrumental in making sure that our intentions were well constructed. She is simply a warm-hearted person, and our family enjoyed meeting her!
Reverend Deanna Lancaster made our wedding a smooth and very happy event. My daughter used her 1st for her wedding in October 2009. When I got engaged, I had no doubt who I wanted to marry us. Rev. Deanna let us choose our ceremony and gave suggestions when we got stuck. She reminded me about things that are normally in a ceremony and gave me the choice to include them or not. She even kept me company in the bride's room before the ceremony when everybody else deserted me! I would highly recommend Reverend Deanna to anyone getting married!
There is a reason Rev. Deanna has so many positive reviews. She really is a beautiful person who is very good at what she does! Her prices are also very reasonable. She sent samples of many different ceremonies and let us customize everything until it was perfect. On our wedding day, we were moved by her ability to deliver every word with such love and beauty. We had an intimate, outdoor ceremony but she has done so many different weddings, big and small. She arrives on time and is very professional, yet friendly and easygoing. Afterwards she even kept me up to date about our marriage license. I hope that everyone looking for a wedding officiant contacts her! She is the one! Thank you Rev. Deanna!
Rev. Deanna was so enthusiastic right from the start! Even before we decided on her as our officiant, she was giving me helpful tips and resources. Throughout the process, she guided us and was an integral part of all our decisions especially relating to our wedding vows. If we had an idea, she would build on the idea and help us with the wording. She was quick to respond and was upbeat and as excited about our wedding as we were. We really felt like she was part of our family by the time we made it to the ceremony. She made the ceremony itself more relaxed and intimate and was a blessing throughout! We highly recommend her for your special day!
I had envisioned exactly how I wanted everything to look and be in our wedding except for the ceremony. When I called Reverend D, not only did her warm personality put me at ease, she sent us over 20 ceremonies to give us ideas to create our own unique ceremony. She had the patience of Job because we didn't get a final ceremony to her until the morning of our wedding. Reverend D was amazing. Our ceremony was beautiful. We could not have been more pleased!
Rev Lancaster was excellent and we highly recommend her. She was very easy to work with and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and everything was just the way we wanted it to be. We are so lucky we found her.
Reverend Deanna was absolutely amazing and so much fun to work with. She really caters to what you want to make your wedding day amazing and really feels your heart with joy and happiness and kind words to help your nerves. I could not have picked a better minister for our wedding, it was such a joy and pleasure to have her. I would highly recommend her. She was our minister for our October 23, 2010 wedding.
Rev D was great! We loved the ceremony that she put together and it was everything that we hoped it would be. She helped us to create exactly the customized ceremony we were looking for. The whole process was seamless as could be and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an wedding officiant. We were both blown away by how well everything went. She exceeded our expectations by far.
Our experience with Rev. D. was nothing less than perfect. Since neither one us attend church on a regular basis, I must admit that I was somewhat concerned about finding an officiant that would meet our expectations and perform the ceremony that we desired. After seeing Rev. D.'s reviews and after receiving a high recommendation from another couple, whom we knew, I was eager to meet with her. I can honestly say that we knew, instantly, that Rev. D. was the one we wanted to perform our ceremony. I cannot say enough good things about her. I can guarantee you that Rev. D. will give you all the tools, guidance, and advice to make your ceremony perfect. Not only did we gain the wedding ceremony of our dreams, by hiring Rev. D., but we also gained a friend.
I would highly recommend Rev. D. She was so easy to work with and handled a time and location change about 2 weeks before our wedding. This meant the world to my now husband and I. She was on time and reasonably priced. I was impressed how well she spoke during the ceremony. My family loved her too. Thanks again!!
Reverend D was amazing! She was very helpful! We were a bit lost in picking the ceremony, but she was there to answer every question! Very professional, sweet, efficient, and approachable!
I would highly recommend Reverend Deanna. She is warm, friendly, and professional. She promptly returned my phone call and quickly responded to my emails. She provided us with a wide variety of ceremony ideas so that we could create one that truly reflected us. Above all, her presentation of the ceremony was excellent. She has a high degree of warmth so it is very easy for her to establish a rapport with people. If you select her as your officiant, you will be so very glad that you did.
Rev. Deanna was awesome! She worked with us with anything that we wanted in our ceremony and was very understanding of our individual wedding situation. She welcomes every type of ceremony tradition! We previously had a minister bail out on us a few months prior to our wedding, and Rev. Deanna made our wedding a priority and had enthusiasm, and didn't treat it like a job. We were very thankful for her and would recommend her to anyone!! Thanks!
We were so honored to have Rev. Deanna perform our ceremony! She was a pure delight, helpful, so incredibly nice and sweet and made us feel at ease. Everybody raved about what a great ceremony it was, and how nice she was. She just has the personality that everyone just wants to be around, so if you are looking for someone...she'd be my pick! She is, as my nephew would say... 'the bomb.com' :) Absolutely terrific!
Deanna Lancaster enabled us to have a special, personalized wedding that both my husband and I will never forget. First, she was warm and personable. We didn't meet prior to the wedding, but all of our contact was done through the phone and through E-mail. She responded to our questions and concerns promptly. She provided us with many sample ceremonies with which we could pick and choose parts from several to make our ceremony unique to us. She provided all the information we needed prior too and after the wedding. She was, in a word, invaluable, and having her be part of our special day even more special. Thank you, Deanna. You are greatly appreciated!
We highly recommend "Reverend D" to anybody looking for an officiant for their wedding ceremony. From our first meeting, she was professional, warm and caring. She was always willing to listen to our questions and concerns. On our wedding day, she was the glue that made everything come together for a perfect, unforgettable ceremony.
While planning our wedding, searching for the right wedding officiant was one of my biggest worries. My fiancé and I did not attend church and had no one in mind to be our officiant. We were looking for someone nondenominational, easy going, and who would fit well with our personalities. While researching on the wedding websites, Rev D came highly recommended. We met with her one morning for coffee and knew she was the perfect choice. She sent us several samples of her previous weddings that we used to create our own ceremony. She was very open to any ideas or questions that we had. Rev D was in constant contact with us throughout the entire process which put our minds at ease. We cannot say enough good things about Rev D and would recommend her to anyone. Dawn Chartrand Walker
Rev. D was a cheerful, amazing officiant! She was genuine and sincere, and fit our style perfectly. She showed up on time and chatted with each of us before the ceremony. During the ceremony, she was an encouraging and calming force. Highly recommended!
