Reverend Derek Dube was the officiant for our wedding and did a wonderful job! We connected with him about a year before the wedding. He was friendly, helpful, and responsive to our ideas for a custom ceremony. He checked in with us over the course of the year to see how things were going, and on the big day he showed up early and spoke to us briefly before the ceremony to ensure everything was set. Afterwards he sent us an email with helpful information about obtaining copies of our marriage certificate. We could tell this wasn't his first rodeo and having someone with a lot of experience helping guide us through the process was great!Reverend Derek Dube was the officiant for our wedding and did a wonderful job!

We got married at the end of September in Washington County. We reached out to Derek a few months before our wedding and used his services, with Sara as our officiant. There was no additional charge for travel, which was just one highlight of using these services. We cannot speak highly enough about the both of them. They were easy to work with, communicated frequently, met with us when needed, and wrote us the most beautiful, heartfelt ceremony. We got many compliments about how wonderful the ceremony was. My husband and I are not very religious, but we wanted the ceremony to feel special and spiritual. Derek did a fantastic job creating the perfect ceremony for us. They were also very helpful in getting our marriage license. We highly recommend Derek and The Celebration Center for an amazing wedding ceremony!We got married at the end of September in Washington County. We reached out to Derek a few months before...

The Celebration Center was the perfect place to hold our Celebration of Life for our Mother who passed away just short of 100 years old! Derek was very kind, understanding and accommodating. The space itself had plenty of room and Derek set it up just as we wanted. There is plenty of light and the atmosphere is pleasant. Our event was informal. We had tables to hold items that were special to Mom. The walls are very versatile so were able to hang a number of photo boards and other items easily. We had a meal catered in and it was helpful to have the kitchen nearby to stash things out of the way afterwards. Overall it was a good experience, a touching ending to this final chapter of Mom's life.The Celebration Center was the perfect place to hold our Celebration of Life for our Mother who passed away just...

Exceeded Expectations

My wife and I were in need of an officiant and had no idea of where to start to look for one. We searched around and came across weddingwire. From there we found Derek and read through some reviews. At that point we had a good initial gut feeling about him and scheduled a meeting with him. The meeting went great and we both felt very comfortable with how he handled himself and how organized he was. We knew he was the right fit so we decided to move forward with his services right away. The most important take away from his services was how helpful he was in helping plan the ceremony. He had a lot to offer in giving us plenty of options and direction, in turn removing a lot of the stress that normally comes with planning a wedding. The ceremony went exactly as planned and exceeded our expectations. He offers a very relaxing presence, a sense of humor, and a very kind personality. We both highly recommend his services if you’re in need of an officiant! Thanks Derek!

Derek was amazing!

I highly recommend choosing Derek Dube to be your officiant for your Wedding! He was so kind and open to all ideas we had to make our Ceremony unique to us. We were able to do a week of wedding phone call with him and he answered all of our questions and gave us some very helpful tips for the wedding day.

Great officiant choice

Derek was great. We met in person so he could get a feel for what kind of a ceremony we were hoping to have. He quickly emailed some general drafts for multiple styles of weddings. From those drafts we picked parts we liked, added in some of our own things. Derek looked over it and offered suggestions based on his experience while making it clear it was all up to us. It was sooo helpful having him there for the rehearsal. He just knows where people should be and has the flow of it down. The day of went smooth as can be.

Purely wonderful!

Derek was so wonderful and helpful throughout the whole process from the time that we first met him all the way to the time that my now husband and I got married! Explained everything! He was helpful in providing suggestions all the way up to helping write our vows! He was so helpful with the rehearsal dinner and ceremony!

Absolutely incredible!

Derek was a fantastic officiant for our ceremony! We are so blessed to have found him. He truly made our ceremony special and unique to us. He provided so many great ideas, listened to feedback, and worked with us for hours to ensure that my husband and I had the ceremony we wanted. He is such a caring and sweet person that I would recommend to anyone looking for an officiant for their wedding day!

Above and Beyond

We could not have asked for a better officiant! Derek did an amazing job! He made a very personal ceremony for our wedding. He far exceeded our expectations. He went above and beyond, being flexible, customizing our ceremony and always responding timely. We highly recommend Derek. 

You will not be disappointed! Thank you again, Derek, for making our day 

so special!

- Abby D.

We LOVED our ceremony!

Derek was an amazing officiant for our wedding ceremony and we would absolutely work with him again if we had to redo our day! He was very responsive and provided us with so many options and examples for our ceremony. We picked one of his examples and added some parts from a different example in and created the perfect ceremony!

Our friends and family have raved about our ceremony and several people told us that it was the best ceremony they have experienced. We were told by our guests that they loved listening to Derek and the ceremony was so unique! We are extremely happy with our choice and we couldn't imagine our ceremony without Derek :) He made our ceremony feel so intimate, unique but never boring! We would recommend him to anybody!
