    Amazing Person - Amazing Ceremony

    Diane is such a fantastic person who really takes the time to get to know the couple and craft such a personal and meaningful ceremony. We couldn't have asked for a better person to marry us.

    Wonderful and thoughtful

    Reverend Diane was an absolute pleasure to work with! She is very sweet and quickly put my now husband and I at ease. After talk it to her on the phone for ~10 minutes we knew we found the right person! She was very patient, kind, more than willing to answer our questions and give us guidance when asked. She did an amazing job at creating a wedding ceremony that both of us loved, personalizing it by incorporating portions of our love story. She even looked up the meaning of the plant that we used for our tree ceremony to share this with our guests! We could not ask for a better person to officiate our ceremony!

    Personal and Lovely Ceremony

    Diane Walker got to know us in a phone consultation prior to our wedding and added personal touches to the ceremony, which was great. She helped us put together a ceremony which turned out to be so lovely. She exceeded our expectations and made our wedding memorable. She thought of everything, suggested readings and vow language and pulled it all together. We were so pleased, and our guests loved it!

    Wonderful experience and ceremony

    Diane was recommended to us by our wedding venue, and it was easy to see why! She met with my husband and I (by phone) to get to know us better and the ceremony was so personalized and intimate. Many of our guests commented to us on loving the personalization and getting to hear about our love story. Diane was very responsive and flexible with us. 100% recommend her!

    Diane is wonderful!

    We can’t thank Diane enough for an absolutely wonderful ceremony! She hit all of our points and understood exactly the kind of ceremony we wanted. Diane is so easy to work with and we enjoyed working with her immensely through the process. We absolutely recommend her!

    Reverend Diane Walker's reply:

    Thank you so much Georgie! It was a pleasure to work with you and helping to make your day special for the two of you and all who attended. Wishing you all the best!

    Our Wonderful Wedding

    Diane was so attentive to our needs and our vision for our hand fasting ceremony. Diane made for such a moving experience that we both will never forget.
    Blessed be to our friend, Diane

    Felt like fate.

    We got married during the Covid pandemic. We had to cancel our 150 person wedding, and then decided on a whim to do a 6 person backyard wedding instead. Within a month of that decision, we were saying our I-do's in our backyard. Diane helped make a stressful time magical, and hilariously fun! My friends loved her so much, that they pretty much insisted that she stay and eat with us. She did, and thank goodness she did, because it would not have been the same without her. She was like family, during a time when the majority of our family was unable to attend. She helped our wedding feel safe, and unique, and easy. We felt so special in her presence. She holds a place in our hearts forever :)

    Wonderful person.

    Reverend Diane Walker was the most amazing officiant for us. The ceremony was beautiful and she is amazing to work with. She is the type of person that radiates an amazing energy, love and compassion. If that's what you are looking for then I couldn't imagine a better person!

    One of the sweetest and most helpful people I've ever met.

    Diane was absolutely incredible throughout our whole process. We asked her to officiate our wedding on very short notice, and she delivered with flying colors. Our small wedding was going to be outside and when we realized it was going to be darker and chillier than we thought, she found a venue to host our wedding and helped make it an absolutely unforgettable experience. Her ceremony was professional, sweet, and well delivered. She was very flexible with our short schedule and provided us an evening far beyond our expectations. I cannot say enough about how amazing Diane was, and highly recommend her services without hesitation.

    Rev. Walker had previously officiated for two other couples we are close to, that is how we found out about her. We obviously loved her because we hired her as well. She takes time to get to know you as people and as a couple and your ceremony is tailored to your beliefs and preferences. She provides advice and support along the way. She was always reliable and accommodating.

    Diane provided exactly what we wanted for our non-religious ceremony. She has great stage presence and is very charismatic while still being very genuine. Many of our guests complimented us on the ceremony itself. It was short, sweet, and authentic to who we are as a couple. Diane did a wonderful job.

    Look no further, folks. Diane is fabulous. As soon as I saw her picture, my intuition said "She's the one!". Diane responded quickly to my inquiry and was the epitome of patience while my fiance and I decided on the details of our wedding. She listened, answered questions and was totally flexible. What a sport she was when we threw caution to the wind and gave her a week's notice for an outside wedding...in a labyrinth...in 30 degree weather. After meeting her, we knew we made the right decision to have her part of our wedding. The ceremony was beautiful, moving, Universally meaningful, and would not have been the same without her presence. Andrew and I searched for an Officiant, but gained a friend...the best wedding gift of all. Thanks, Diane!

    We highly recommend Diane! We had to find a minister long distance since we were living in Minneapolis and getting married in Louisville. Through emails and phone calls, we were able to get to know Diane and craft a beautiful, personal ceremony that our guests loved! She provided examples, frameworks, and advice that take away the stress of pulling together everything from scratch, which is what we wanted. She was also flexible so we could add a couple of extras. She was reliable, organized and engaged. Our day was so special with her as our officiant!

    Diane was recommended by our wedding coordinator and I'm so glad we chose her to be our minister. We met with her and she sat down with us for an hour and a half to throughly get to know us individually as well as our relationship. It was a lot of fun, and when our wedding day finally came she completely tailored our ceremony to fit us personally and perfectly. By getting to know us she included everything we said about what we loved about each other, details on how we met, and how we persevered through a long-distance relationship. She really brought together our intimate wedding seamlessly, and at one point when my husband and I were shaking and about to cry she eased our nervousness by telling us to breathe. Our ceremony wouldn't have been the same without her by our side, and people really gravitated to her because so many people came up to my husband and I and told us how cool Diane was and how beautiful and personal our ceremony was. Diane is the best choice you could make in hiring a wedding officiant, and my husband and I highly recommend her!

    Diane was simply fabulous! Her gentle manner combined with her sincere desire to get to know us well made for a heart-felt and moving wedding ceremony. So many of our guests wanted to know how many years we’d know Diane because her comments so personal – yet we’d only spend a few hours together over the previous few months. What a wonderful testament to Diane’s true love of people and her desire to make your ceremony memorable for the couple and guests! The more meaningful, personal details that you share with Diane the more meaningful and personal your ceremony will be. Diane loves life and was an honor to have her officiate our wedding ceremony. Highly recommend Diane!

    My husband and I found Rev Diane here on the Knot, and met her for a consultation soon after. She was very personable, calming, and kind. Immediately we knew Diane was the one we wanted to marry us. Me had a very non-traditional ceremony, focusing on our love for one another. Diane was on board with our ideas and provided us with beautiful material that she would read in order to make our ceremony unique to us. She got to know us both, taking time to find out details about is as individuals and about our relationship. We wanted to do some sort of unity ceremony, but again being non-traditional we didn't want to do sand, or candle, etc. So Diane actually came up with the suggestion for us to do the Wine Box ceremony, which was PERFECT for us and fit our venue quite well. Diane made time to come to Lexington to do our rehearsal and she made sure everyone knew their responsibilities, and ensured a smooth flow to the ceremony. The day of the wedding, Diane was punctual and professional. She had a calm reassuring manner and helped to settle my nerves! Her advice was to "breath and just look at the man you love" and she couldn't have said anything better! Diane did an amazing job of offiating our ceremony. She delivered sweet messages, captured our personalities perfectly in her story about us and how our relationship came to fruition. She added humor as well as eloquent delivery and timing of the ceremony. We could not have been more pleased with our officiant and would recommend Diane to anyone for whatever kind of ceremony!

    You will be happy with your choice of Diane as your officiant! She puts your mind at ease, so you can enjoy this important time of your life...I had known Diane for 4 years before my husband and I decided to get married, and she was the first and only person I thought of to marry us. She is genuine, trustworthy and accommodating in every way.
    We had a destination wedding in Sedona, AZ. We got married on top of a large hill in the middle of the red mountains. She was willing to fly where ever we wanted to go. She also did the research on the marriage license rules in AZ, and all of the things I wouldn't have thought of.
    At the end of the intimate ceremony, she even recited the words to my husband's favorite song by Etta James, (this brought tears to his eyes.) Our wedding day was of course very unique, but she made it even more special!
    I highly recommend Diane Walker to be your officiant for your more than special day!!

    Personal & meaningful ceremonies every time!

    As a wedding photographer, I've been a part of hundreds of ceremonies over more than a decade and Diane is the first officiant I've felt compelled to write a review for. Every ceremony she's performed has been so unique and personal to each couple— you can tell a lot of thought and intention went into everything. I can tell she has a really great connection with the couples she works with too!

    Amazing help

    Rev. Diane made our special day fantastic! We had to reschedule multiple times and downsize our wedding and she worked with us to make that happen. She created a beautiful and touching ceremony and took time to get to know us. We loved working with her and highly recommend her as an officiant!

    Reverend Diane Walker's reply:

    Thank you so much Bethany! I'm glad I could help make all those changes easier. It was a pleasure to work with you and to get to know you both. Wishing you all the best in your marriage!
