Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Your wedding ceremony is a personal and distinctive statement shared with family and friends, and is a powerful and purposeful milestone in your lives. It is the foundation for your partnership and your future together. Your wedding ceremony is an affordable investment that creates a long lasting and beautiful foundation for your future.

My name is Griffin Dunlop. I am an ordained Christian minister and wedding officiant, and I would be honored to officiate your ceremony. I serve the Twin City metro area and the surrounding communities. I am also available for out state Minnesota locations as well. I officiate nondenominational weddings as well as inter-faith and civil ceremonies.

If you need a wedding officiant in Minnesota, contact me and I will help you create a ceremony that reflects your wants, faith, values and unique bond.

I am so proud of our state! Marriage equality has finally reached Minnesota, where now any couple in love can get married - regardless of their sexual orientation. I have been performing gay and lesbian weddings in Minnesota from the beginning, but they were (sadly) "commitment ceremonies". I am very happy that now same sex weddings in Minnesota will finally be legally recognized marriages.

Basic Philosophy

I am a down-to-earth, fun-loving guy with a strong desire to help others. Your wedding day is a milestone in your lives, and I consider it a privilege to be a part of your day. Planning a wedding can be full of stresses. My goal is to not add to your stress, but to help you feel comfortable that your ceremony will be exactly what you want. That is why I not only refuse to charge couples for customizing their ceremony, I encourage it. This is your ceremony, and I don't feel it's right for me to dictate what is said. This is your ceremony, so make it your own. I want you to feel comfortable that with nearly 200 weddings under my belt, I will be there to facilitate a smooth ceremony for you.
