Rev. Richard was the officiant for our small ceremony at the Dinah Shore Estate in Palm Springs in November 2020. Originally we were going to have one of our family members act as the officiant, but we are so happy we decided to work with Joyful Weddings. Rev. Richard helped us through the entire wedding process (including how to get a marriage license in the middle of a pandemic) and worked with us to create an intimate, personalized ceremony that we will never forget. He was also extremely responsive on text and email to all our little questions, which made the planning super easy and removed a bunch of stress. And maybe most important, Rev. Richard is a genuinely nice, warm, and respectful person and it is very clear from the moment you meet him that he loves being a wedding officiant. I would 100% recommend Rev. Richard to anyone looking for an officiant for their special day.
