"Didier was perfect. I could list all the reasons why, but I think you'll get the picture with just a few examples: Prior to our wedding day, Didier spoke with us multiple times to insure that all our needs and concerns were addressed. Didier has a thorough understanding of all the specifics a couple would need to get married on the island. He sat down with my wife and me a few days prior to the wedding to confirm that everything was perfect. He made sure that everyone in our party was prepared and involved to the extent we had hoped for. And finally, he conducted the ceremony with flawless grace.
If you were to ask what one characteristic Didier has that stood out to my wife and me, I would have to say that is his deep desire to help create your wedding in the way that is specific to you and your partner. It is clear to us that Didier has a passion for what he does and that his passion fuels the gift he was given to help people celebrate one of the most important days of our lives

He proposed ideas, but was always focused on making sure that the ceremony was exactly how we wanted it. During the ceremony, he was outstanding. He has a gentle, but confident tone of voice and our guests commented that he make a concerted effort to make eye contact with every guest, which made everyone feel special and included.

He gets to know his people and wants to deliver what will make their day feel right in all the ways he can. He also inspires a splendid kind of dialogue between bride and groom that will carry into the marriage. Something truly special and unexpected. Also, your wedding party will love him. He is exceptional, the individual who inspired this man to start on his path down being apart of unifying couples and bonding families taught him well and would be proud.

He also gave us wonderful guidance and encouragement on how to write our own wedding vows. We regularly corresponded with him via email and met with him over video chat in order to get to know each other better and finalize details. Didier wrote a beautiful ceremony that clearly reflected how well he listened to each of us and what we valued as a couple. He worked to incorporate our family members and our guests so that they actually had a small role and felt included! He also officiated the Persian part of our wedding ceremony - the Sofreh Aghd - which he admittedly had never done before, but with a little help from my mother in law, he approached this with confidence and absolutely nailed it! Didier is one of the most professional people I have ever worked with, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He approaches his work and the people around him with a sense of kindness, non-judgement, and pure love. I feel incredibly lucky that we were able to include him in arguably the most special day of our lives.”
"What a week my fiancé and I had, we found out that due to the circumstances of the world right now (March 2020), we had to cancel our wedding in Costa Rica only 3 days out! We decided that we would elope and have an intimate ceremony on Orcas Island, our favorite spot in Washington, if we could. We contacted Didier 3 days before we wanted to get married on Orcas to find out if he was available and would be able to accommodate a small/short ceremony in such a short time. From the onset, he heard our story, and worked with his schedule to ensure he was available and really understood our story so that he could create a special ceremony for us. He even met us in person (while remaining 6ft apart :) ) on orcas the day before the wedding for an hour to talk with us about our love for eachother, and what we wanted out of the ceremony. The ceremony was perfect, and Didier managed to create something that was tailored to us after only knowing us for less than a few hours. We absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to get married on Orcas! He is genuine, kind, and makes the entire situation as fun and comfortable as possible. We are so grateful we were able to work with him!"
"Thank you very much for being our officiant on our special day. The ceremony was perfect. Everything was perfect. We will cherish it forever."

He is very kind and easygoing, very articulate, and very respectful of what we wanted for our wedding. He helped us through every step and made our day extra special with his thoughtful words. Didier asked questions confirming how we wanted things and personalized our ceremony so that it was just right for us. We loved our wedding and it was perfect for us. He was a major hit! Everyone loved him! Thank you so much, Didier!"
"Thank you so much for being a part of our special day, Didier! We couldn't have asked for a better ceremony."
"My husband and I honestly could not have asked for a better elopement experience! We highly recommend Didier for any ceremony! He was extremely communicative and timely and took the time to really personalize our ceremony. Even though we just recently met him it felt like we had known him for years. We now consider him to be a great friend and look forward to visiting him next time we are on Orcas!"
"The ceremony was so very special. To the words you chose, the timing, the pauses and the glances--you connected us all. So many commented how delightful it was and how much they enjoyed you. Thank you!"
"My husband and I were married in a very intimate, small wedding on San Juan Island, made perfect by our wedding officiant, Didier Gincig. If you are looking for a wedding officiant who is both kindhearted, warm, and sensitive to the needs of the bride, groom and guests, as well as full of good cheer and humor, look no further than Didier! He was marvelous with us and our guests and felt more like a dear friend officiating than an uninterested stranger. We wanted to write our own wedding vows, but that can be overwhelming. Didier had wonderful suggestions for vows and provided words that we then edited to fit our exact needs. We also added some more traditional elements to our vows - which was exactly what we had wanted to do. In the whole process, Didier was patient, and easy going. Whether you have a small gathering for your wedding or a large one, Didier is your best choice! We thank you, Didier, from the bottom of our hearts, for making our special day unforgettably lovely and meaningful! "

"We could not have asked for a more perfect officiant to perform our elopement ceremony! Didier was professional and timely, even with a 3-hour time zone difference! He took the time to really get to know both of us so that he could create a ceremony that neither of us would ever forget! He was extremely knowledgeable and caring and made the entire process seem like a piece of cake! We cannot thank him and his lovely wife (one of our witnesses) enough for helping make our wedding day the best day of our lives! What a blessing!"
