We’ve all grown up seeing romantic moments and a search for true love in cartoons and on the set of Hollywood’s greatest blockbuster movies, but now I have the distinct opportunity to witness YOUR true love right in front of my own eyes and I don’t take that privilege for granted. As a licensed wedding officiant in the province of Ontario I want to come along side you as a couple and help make your wedding ceremony all that you could ever dream, hope or desire.
My Personal Story ….
I was born in Kitchener, Ontario Canada and raised in Guelph along side my 5 brothers and sisters. My upbringing was full of music and sports and laughter and arguing over the last pancake at breakfast. I usually won that argument. I’m the life of the party, love to make people laugh but can also be polite, professional and your Aunt Gertrude will LOVE me.
My Family….
I’m a single father to 5 amazing kids ranging from ages 21 to 11. Yes I remember their names, but please don’t ask me their birthdates.
My Life Experience ….
I’ve done it all and have the scars to prove it. Red Lobster biscuit boy, worked at a young Offenders Facility, was Business Manager for 2 successful junior hockey clubs, Vice President of a Jr. A lacrosse club, was formerly known as Korky The Klown for a few events (don’t ask, I will deny it), I have been in 2 movies, chased by zombies in commercials, umpire baseball in the summer and have been a manager of a heating company for the past 24 years, I’ve emceed dozens of weddings, dabbled in stand up comedy and I bring all of those talents & abilities to your disposal.
My Interests & Passions ….
I love people! I love to make people laugh, I love to people watch, I love to help when others are in need. I also love tacos.

Why Choose Enduring Promises?
What couples are saying
Three reasons why I recommend Nathan as your Wedding Officiant.
#1 – He is ALL heart
#2 – He is hilarious
#3 – He is professional
Michelle and her husband Bernard are the owners of the beautiful wedding venue “Events at Evergreen” just minutes outside of Guelph, Ontario.
As Wedding Photographers, we know an Officiant can make or break the rhythm and feel of your ceremony. From knowing when the groom may need a pat on the back as his partner is walking towards him, to bringing laughter and fun to help settle some of the nerves. Nathan is light hearted and easy to work with. His ability to put you at ease and make your ceremony uniquely yours is one of the main reasons we have chosen Nathan as our VIP Wedding Vendor Officiant. We are excited to continue to work with him.
Jessica and Josh are the owners of Red Suitcase Photography in Guelph, Ontario.
Are you looking for an officiant for your wedding? Hire Nathan. He’s funny, witty, full of personality and definitely not boring. You won’t be disappointed.

I honestly can’t thank Nathan enough, we found him through a Facebook wedding page and for some reason he caught my attention! He communicated with us from the second I reached out and didn’t skip a beat with helping me if ever needed. Nathan made our special day so intimate, special and added his secret blend of humour to our ceremony (which is exactly what we wanted) and I hope all of my friends hire him going forward so he can make their days so special too. Any future couple looking to hire a great guy, Nathan is what you’ve been looking for! I promise he won’t disappoint

We had Nathan Grieve as our officiant and he was literally perfect. Responding to questions lightning fast with helpful information, always friendly and positive. Couldn’t have asked for a more genuine and kind person to marry us. His humour and lightheartedness was so appreciated by us and our guests as well. If I could give 10 stars I would!!
