Wedding Ceremonies
By
Rev. Patrick Kahnert
Your Day. Your Way.
An uplifting, elegant wedding ceremony can be the cornerstone of one of married life's happiest moments. If you are an engaged couple looking for proven and new ways to design a heartwarming celebration of your love, I would be honoured to help you get married.
I am a registered Marriage Officiant in the Province of Ontario and a CIMM Minister. I have helped couples throughout Halton, GTA, other nearby regions and beyond, including Niagara, Brant and Muskoka.
I enjoy collaborating with a positive couple to delight them with a personalized, professional and positive moment. With mutual respect and appreciation guiding us, our collaboration is enhanced by the principles of Accentuate the Positives and Do Everything with Love.
Working together, we will produce your ideal wedding ceremony. It will be a fun collaboration and an elegant celebration of love -- with plenty of smiles.
With respect and appreciation,
Reverend Patrick Kahnert
