Dale Patterson

This journey began about 25 years ago when a friend asked me to officiate his wedding. After doing some research, I found a site that allowed me to become ordained, and I’ve been officiating ever since. Since then, I’ve performed over 30 ceremonies, with a 29 out of 30 success rate.

I’m currently based in Citrus Heights, California, and as an Air Force brat, I’ve had the opportunity to travel extensively—living throughout the United States and across Europe. Those experiences with diverse people and cultures allow me to create ceremonies that feel truly personal and special.

My goal is to create meaningful, spiritual, non-denominational wedding ceremonies that honor each couple’s unique story—welcoming and celebrating all, regardless of color, culture, gender, or creed.

Every ceremony I create is tailored to the couple it celebrates. I include pre-planning sessions and, when desired, a rehearsal to ensure everything flows smoothly. We’ll meet to talk through your vision, and I’ll ask each of you to reflect on what you love most about your partner. I then weave those thoughts, memories, and personal details into a ceremony that feels genuine, meaningful, and uniquely yours.

I’m committed to making your wedding day as seamless and stress-free as possible, so you can focus on what truly matters—celebrating your love. From start to finish, I’ll handle the details with care and intention, ensuring the experience is not only smooth, but genuinely meaningful and unforgettable.
