Jesse (owner at Red Hawk Ridge Events) - I recently met Jason at our venue ribbon cutting and was immediately impressed by his calm, even energy — exactly what a couple would need as an officiant.
They say there are 5 Pillars of Great Communication and he commands all of them:
1. Volume - He isn’t a timid speaker, his voice projects without being loud.
2. Rate of Speech - perfect for your guests to follow and take in the vows and message
3. Tonality - kind and positive
4. Pitch - strong deeper voice which exudes confidence and wisdom
5. Facial Expression - warm smile, great eye contact.
There are a LOT of pre-wedding decisions and it’s easy to get overwhelmed quickly. Picking Jason as your officiant is the easiest choice you’ll make.
Tara W - Jason was just who you’d want to officiate your wedding. He’s warm, well spoken, cares about you having the best possible experience and was great to communicate with. I highly recommend working with him. It was so simple from start to finish and that made the day all the better!.
Adriana G - I plan weddings for a living and I have heard many officiants, Jason is my top choice and I would refer him over and over. He keeps the ceremony light, but doesn’t turn it into a comedy show. He is articulate, likeable, and keeps the ceremony engaging for both the guest and the couple. He arrives in time, dressed professionally and prepared. If you are looking for an officiant look no further.
Paul L - Jason was an absolutely incredible officiant for our wedding. So happy to have gone with him as he was well versed in what he was saying and doing. Very kind and had an easy to use portal to organize the ceremony which even came with recommendations of readings, unity ideas, etc. Working with Jason was a tremendous pleasure and we were very happy to have him involved in our special day. Thank you so much, Jason!
Kena P - Jason is so nice and understanding of my needs for the wedding!! Everything went perfect. I would highly recommend him for any weddings.
Monique B - Jason was amazing! Took the time to get to know us and his communication was helpful throughout the process. He made our day special and we highly recommend him.
Matin N - Jason and his partner were nothing but professional and extremely kind through this process. As the photographer, I only saw a high-level of professionalism and respect from both Jason. I would definitely recommend his services to any other individual.
Danielle D - We are incredibly grateful to have had Jason as our wedding officiant. He played a pivotal role in making our ceremony truly special and personal. From the initial contact to the ceremony itself, Jason was exceptionally responsive and professional. He listened attentively to our preferences and helped us craft a ceremony that reflected our love story perfectly. His warm demeanor and attention to detail made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. We highly recommend Jason to anyone looking for a dedicated and talented officiant who will ensure your big day is unforgettable.
Nicole I - Jason was awesome at our wedding. He listened to what we wanted and the ceremony was beautiful! He made sure the ceremony ran smoothly and flowed well. :)
Amanda P - Amazing service. So kind and professional. He made sure the ceremony was exactly what we hoped for . We planned our wedding in a very short time period and he made us feel so ready, secure, and happy with our choice to utilize him to officiate our ceremony. He also accommodated us on such short notice and personalized the whole ceremony. 100% recommend Jason for your wedding or quick elopement.
Jason S - My fiancé and I hired Jason to be our officiant for our wedding. Jason had responded to me quickly and scheduled a video meeting to go over details same day. This was great because we had a destination wedding and we really wanted to find the right person. By offering a video it was more personable for us and well Jason blew us away. Planning our ceremony was easy with the tools Jason provided and he was always able and willing to help when we had any questions. On our wedding day he arrived before we did and the ceremony was perfect. Even though we were able to create our ceremony, the additions he personally included were a very nice touch. We would definitely recommend Jason to anyone wanting to get married in San Diego!
Shauna L - Jason was such a pleasure to work with and made our wedding exactly how we wanted it. He listened to what our wishes were and customized our ceremony to be perfect! Whether you're looking for a full religious ceremony or just something simple, he won't disappoint. The website he has available made the planning so easy and gave lots of wonderful suggestions, especially if you don't know where to start.
Yekaterina P - I can’t say enough good things about Jason! He was so accommodating and professional throughout the entire process (we had date changes and location changes). I couldn’t have picked a better officiant for my wedding! Highly recommend!!
Victoria M - I had the pleasure of meeting Jason when he officiated a wedding held at the brewery I own. He did a wonderful job! He spoke confidently and sprinkled a bit of comedy in but never overshadowed the couple which I think is so important. We will be recommending him for all future weddings we host!
Ann V - Jason made our wedding ceremony truly special and personal. His warmth and professionalism created unforgettable moments. Highly recommend!
Natalia Z - I attended my friend’s wedding where Jason was the officiant, and I must say, his performance was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment the ceremony began, it was clear that Jason had a deep understanding of what made the day so special. His words were thoughtfully crafted and delivered with such genuine warmth that it felt like he truly knew the couple on a personal level. If you’re looking for someone to bring a touch of elegance, warmth, and personal connection to your ceremony, I highly recommend him.
Angelina W - Jason was great! He helped us think about things that didn’t even come to mind for our wedding. When things (venue) didn’t go according to plan, he was willing to adjust, just a great and super sweet guy. Very much worth it.:)
Jessica S - Jason officiated our small elopement and he was PERFECT. We wrote a very nerdy script for him and he delivered it with ease. He was even kind enough to help some of our guests who arrived last minute. I would absolutely recommend Jason to anyone looking for an outstanding officiant.
Kelly C - Jason did a fabulous job officiating our wedding. He was friendly, thorough and most helpful in every way. His pleasant personality fit ours very well. We would highly recommend Jason Olver.
Jeff Q - Highly recommended! Very easy to work with and offers reasonable rates. We didn’t have much of a plan for the ceremony, but he made everything run as smoothly as possible.
Melissa O - We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant than Jason for our wedding! From our first meeting, he was warm, personable, and truly invested in making our day special. As a Christian pastor, he brought a beautiful spiritual element to our ceremony, making it meaningful and memorable. Jason took the time to understand our story and tailored the ceremony to reflect our values and beliefs. His calming presence and heartfelt words created a lovely atmosphere. We are so grateful to Jason for helping make our wedding day perfect. Highly recommend him to any couple looking for a thoughtful and inspiring officiant!
