What my Clients say about my Professional Celebrant service
Some of my Celebrant Testimonials:
Daragh is a true professional and gentleman!
He married us in Athlone this in July 2023 and he was wonderful. He is a calming presence in what is a hectic, nerve jerking morning!
He came out to Laois to meet with us personally and created a magical ceremony which proved very emotional. The whole room was over come with the emotion and a massive part of that was Daragh’s service.
If you book Daragh as your celebrant you’re guaranteed a personal, elegant, witty and beautiful ceremony.
The ceremony sets the theme of the day and it’s vital it’s done correctly, Daragh is your man. Couldn’t recommend him enough.

We could not have asked for more in a wedding celebrant.
Daragh is just brilliant from start to finish.
He communicates with you to work out a ceremony that's personal and tailored to your wants and needs.
He listens to you and what you want and advises on what you need in a ceremony.
All our guests commented on how beautiful our ceremony was and we adored every bit of it and that was hugely thanks to Daragh.

Daragh was amazing.
I would highly recommend him.
When meeting with Daragh about what we really wanted from the ceremony the main things was a personal and relaxed ceremony. Which we felt Daragh did so well.
It really felt like he brought everyone along on the journey with us. He was great and relaxed. It really helped set the tone of the day.
We couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant.

THE HERITAGE - LAOIS
We are from the U.S. and Daragh was referred to us through Kilronan Castle, our elopement ceremony site.
From day one, Daragh was amazing.
He was very informative, professional yet personable and didn't allow the time difference to interfere with the planning.
Daragh also recommended our florist and photographer - both were fabulous.
On the day of our ceremony, no family or friends were present but the atmosphere created by Daragh and Sylvia Regan (Kilronan Castle) made it feel as though they were family.
The ceremony message was so touching, one that we will never forget. Thank you again, Daragh. We'll see you in 5yrs for our Anniversary.
Mr & Mrs Nicely
KILRONAN CASTLE
We are so glad we chose Daragh as our celebrant.
He did an amazing job at our wedding. We could not have imagined the ceremony being quite as lovely as it was.
So many of our guests commented all day long on how wonderfully talented Daragh is at his job and how the ceremony was so personal to who we are as a couple.
We mentioned him in our thank yous during the speeches and he got a huge round of applause.
Daragh made the entire process of choosing a celebrant, booking him for the day, meeting up, picking the parts of the ceremony so easy and then he blew us away on the day.
We will treasure the memories of our ceremony and we thank Daragh sincerely for that.

TANKARDSTOWN HOUSE
If you are looking for a Celebrant for your wedding look no further!
We had a destination wedding in Loughrea traveling from the states and to say looking for a Celebrant to officiate our wedding was nerve-wracking but from the moment we contacted Daragh we knew we had the right person.
Daragh is very professional and easy to deal with and always answered our text when we had questions leading up to our wedding day.
We had a zoom meeting with Daragh to go over what we wanted for our wedding (never meeting in person because of the distance between us) and then put us at ease and put together the best ceremony that we could have asked for.
Daragh had our guest filled with laughter and tears!
You will not go wrong with chosen Daragh as your Celebrant!

''We would highly recommend Daragh for your special day.
We wanted a laid back ceremony that was about us and that is exactly what Daragh did. From the planning stages right through to the big day he was always ready to answer any questions and make changes to the ceremony to better suit us.
He knew the whole ceremony off by heart and it made our ceremony feel so personal. Guests even thought that he was a family friend he knew so much about us.
He made our day so special and so relaxed. We are so thankful to have found him and glad that he was a part of our amazing day.
We couldn't have asked for a better celebrant.''.

Daragh brought great energy, personality, and charisma to our wedding ceremony.
He does not use a script and is very natural.
He’s out on his own compared to any other wedding celebrant we have seen.

Daragh was an AMAZING celebrant, the energy and atmosphere he brought to our ceremony was indescribable!!!
So far over and above any other celebrant I've ever seen, and an utter gentleman on top of that.
Daragh thank you for making our day so special.

ASHLEY PARK HOTEL TIPPERARY
Daragh performed the wedding ceremony for my husband and I. He did such an amazing job!!
We are from the U.S. and planned a destination wedding in Ireland, so we really didn’t know what we were doing and didn’t meet any of our suppliers until the day of the wedding, and even still, Daragh managed to make the whole ceremony so personal.
So many of our guests commented on how lovely the ceremony was and how personal it was. We also had a change in our ceremony music last minute, and Daragh was super laid back and flexible. He was so easy to work with and I was so impressed with the result! I highly recommend him for your wedding ceremony! You will have no stress working with Daragh!

We had the pleasure of having Daragh perform our wedding ceremony and he was such a pleasure to work with. Daraghs support and help throughout the planning process was exceptional. He was extremely flexible as to the layout of the ceremony but at the same time was very organised and efficient. Thanks so much for everything Daragh love and very best wishes, Celine and Kitty.

We have just received our wedding video and it was amazing Daragh, and the biggest feature was you, the ceremony was unreal, the way you told our story, and delivered it unscripted was something else!
Thank you so much you're one of a kind, we will definitely recommend you.
David & Aoife Ward
Four Seasons Hotel Monaghan
Hi Daragh, I hope you are keeping well. I just wanted to thank you and to share the gratitude towards how special and perfect you made our day. Cormac and I were always apprehensive about the opinions of others with not having our ceremony in a church or as what it should traditionally look like.
The feedback from everyone single person of how beautiful and personalised the ceremony was has actually blown us away.
Normally it's mostly the band or the food people speak about. We are so grateful that it's the ceremony people are still talking about, this means so much to us as the band or food was never going to reflect our love/ relationship on our wedding day.
Everyone has been singing your praises and mentioning this being the best wedding ceremony ever attended and by all accounts everyone was in tears by the end of the ceremony.
I hope we will cross paths again, we will be forever grateful. Please feel free to use this on any platform, we would love for as many couples to feel the way we do, and have as good as a day as we did. KR, Mr & Mrs Dillane.

''Daragh Doyle from Rainbow weddings conducted our wedding ceremony with exceptional professionalism and commitment, to the very final detail.
No stone was left unturned to ensure our very special day went as smoothly as possible. From start to finish, he personally made us feel so relaxed knowing that everything was under control.
We would never have managed the degree of detail that he undertook.
He was like a family member, everyone loved him and felt his strength and energy throughout the whole time.
We cannot thank Daragh and his team at Rainbow Weddings enough''.

When we contacted Daragh initially and told him about the surprise wedding we were intending to have, we were immediately put at ease - Daragh had carried out a surprise wedding before - happy days! But the best was yet to come from Daragh!
We met Daragh on zoom initially and we knew immediately he was the celebrant for us. Daragh came to our home a number of weeks prior to the wedding to find out all about us and to hear our story. In the run up to the day of the wedding we had a quick catch up about how the surprise aspect was going to work!
The day of the wedding came and Daragh arrived in plenty of time. He went into announce that our 'engagement party' was actually a wedding and when I say the room was electric when I walked in is an understatement.
Daragh did such an amazing job and really did set up our day with his amazing personality and story telling ability to be the best wedding we could have asked for. We'll always remember you Daragh and how special you made not only us but everyone in that room feel - a huge thanks to you Daragh.

From our very first enquiry Daragh was so friendly, helpful and attentive.
He came to meet us before our wedding which gave us a great idea of what our ceremony would be like. O
ur ceremony was absolutely perfect and so personal thanks to Daragh, all of our guests commented on how great it was.
I couldn't recommend Daragh enough, he will make any wedding ceremony absolutely perfect!
RACHEL & JOSEPH
THE WOODLAND HOTEL ADARE LIMERICK
Daragh was the celebrant for our wedding in March of this year and we could not be happier with the ceremony.
We are still getting feedback from people about how personal and engaging it was, with multiple people asking if Daragh was a friend of ours, that’s how well he spoke about us.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Daragh to anyone, he really made our wedding ceremony the amazing event it was.
MARK & NIAMH ALGAR — THE ARMADA HOTEL SPANISH POINT CLARE
Daragh was the talk of our Wedding day. Our guests loved his energy and Charisma, and let's not forget style. Daragh really got a sense of us, and it was the perfect relaxed yet serious ceremony we wanted. We would highly recommend Daragh.

THE MILLHOUSE SLANE CO MEATH
We had Daragh as our celebrant for our wedding in Markree Castle on Friday 5th November 2021. Daragh did an absolutely beautiful ceremony for us.
We couldn't have asked for a nicer person to marry us.
Daragh came the whole way to Sligo to meet us in person before the wedding which we thought was lovely. He got to know us both and see what we wanted for our ceremony. Daragh is so down to earth and really listened to what we wanted for our special day!
A lot our guests commented on the ceremony afterwards and told us how beautiful it was.
We highly recommend Daragh as the celebrant for your wedding! You will definitely not regret it!

MARQUEE CASTLE SLIGO
Daragh was amazing as our celebrant in September 2021.
He made us both feel very at ease and both ourselves & our guests loved the ceremony, so many commenting on how personal it was.
We loved doing the wine box ceremony, something Daragh introduced to us.
Daragh was such a pleasure to deal with, Thankyou for everything!
ANGELA & KARL
AMBER SPRINGS HOTEL GOREY CO WEXFORD
We recommend Daragh with our heart.
Daragh exceeded our expectations, he was helpful, he gave us some advice and ideas.
He was also open to our suggestions, for example Parents' Blessing before the ceremony itself, this is our tradition in Poland.
He was interested in how we met and he added that to our ceremony. All our guests were delighted and still remember that day.
Thank you for your full professionalism and we wish you all the best.

''Daragh was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish! The ceremony yesterday was amazing and perfect from start to finish.
We loved the rose ceremony and Daragh never faltered even when our two year old was being his lovely distracting self the whole way through
And also when my partner forgot the rings (he had one job 🤣)
Thank you again for making our day so special and personal we will be forever grateful.''

It was such a pleasure to have Daragh as our celebrant. He made the ceremony very personal and he took the time and effort to get to know us both.
Daragh made the preparations easy and was always so helpful with any queries that we had.
We would highly recommend Daragh to be a celebrant.
Our guests also spoke very highly of him.
Thanks Daragh.

''Daragh officiated at our father's Celebration of life 6 months after he had passed away.
From the beginning of the process I found Daragh to be a great support in looking at the options available to us.
Daragh met virtually with family members on a number of occasions to support the process.
He developed a great insight into the man our dad was and helped us to express this through poetry, music, photos, stories and memories, all family members where involved in the process.
We decided to bury Dad's ashes in Mam's grave and Daragh supported this process in the morning, before we moved onto a hotel to celebrate his life that afternoon..It was a small group of close friends /family in attendance and a very intimate experience.
It really reflected who Dad was and I know that's what he would have wanted.
Daragh thank you for the lovely service you gave our Dad. It now feels like we have said a proper goodbye.
It was really personal & emotional but with some humour, you captured so many of the things we loved about him.
Thank you so much Daragh as all members of the family now feel like we have had some closure and the opportunity to say goodbye''.
Deidre Bolton, Dublin
''We had a surprise wedding last weekend.
We invited our guests to our engagement party and with Daragh’s help turned it into our dream wedding.
It took huge amounts of flexibility and foresight for Daragh to make everything happen when we hoped and that he did in spades.
Watch the videos to see professionalism meet humanism.
Thank you so much from an extremely grateful and happy couple''.

'We had originally planned on a church wedding but no priest would do new years day for us. I'm a firm believer in everything happens for a reason and this was definitely one of those times!
Daragh contacted us straight away and I knew he was the man for the job. Just before the wedding we thought we might have to drop to 6 from 25 and Daragh was on the phone to us straight and other suppliers to put us at ease (we luckily had the 25).
He was a pleasure to deal with and made us feel so special from incorporating our love of liverpool to including our 2 boys who loved every minute of the ceremony. It was short and sweet, just what we wanted and everyone commented on what a good job Daragh did. I have already and would recommend him to a friend!

''Well what can I say. A covid couple who had been challenged hard and decided to change from church to Civil with only 8 weeks to plan a new date.
From the moment I mailed looking to see if Daragh was available to the day he graced us with his blessing he was amazing. So helpful, so happy and so comforting in these strange times.
Our day couldn’t have been any more amazing and we will be forever thankful.''
