Flawless!
From our first meeting, Walter at Wah Joy made it clear that he genuinely cared about understanding our vision for the ceremony. He listened closely to every detail we shared and then creatively crafted our readings and vows to fit us perfectly. On the day of our wedding, his delivery was flawless and in perfect harmony with what we'd imagined. Walter brought warmth and authenticity to the entire experience, making our ceremony feel personal and meaningful. We felt so supported throughout the whole process, and our guests told us afterward that the ceremony was one of the highlights of the day. We couldn't recommend Walter and Wah Joy more highly.
Walter Hrycaj•Jul 6, 2026Sara, thank you so much for your incredibly kind words and for trusting Wah Joy with such an important part of your wedding day. It was truly an honor to get to know you both and create a ceremony that reflected your vision, your values, and the love you share. Knowing that you felt supported throughout the process and that your ceremony was so meaningful to you and your guests, means more than I can express. That's exactly why I do what I do. Wishing you both a lifetime of love, laughter, and continued joy as you begin this next chapter together. Thank you again for allowing me to be part of your story!

Amazing experience!! Highly recommend!!
We had such a wonderful experience with Walter! From the very beginning, he was sincere, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in getting to know us as a couple. We also did premarital counseling with him, which made the entire process feel even more meaningful and personal. He always made us feel comfortable and supported, and his warm and positive presence helped make our ceremony truly special. We’re so grateful for the guidance and care he brought to such an important season of our lives!
Walter Hrycaj•May 30, 2026Thank you so much for your kind words Katie! It was truly an honor to be part of your journey together. Getting to know you both through premarital counseling and helping create a ceremony that reflected your relationship was such a rewarding experience. I'm grateful for the trust you placed in me during such an important season of your lives. Your warmth, openness, and commitment to one another made it a joy to work with you every step of the way. Thank you again for allowing me to be part of your special day. I wish you both a lifetime of love, laughter, and happiness together!

A joy to work with
We had Walter as our officiant for our wedding earlier in the month and it was a great experience! Not only did he meet up with us for coffee to get to know us before our wedding day, but he made our ceremony great. The guests at our wedding very much enjoyed getting to know him as well during the reception. All around, fantastic service!
Walter Hrycaj•Mar 31, 2026Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly an honor to be part of your special day. I really enjoyed meeting with you beforehand and getting to know your story, it made the ceremony that much more meaningful to me as well. I’m so glad you and your guests had a great experience. Being able to connect with everyone during the reception was a real highlight! Wishing you both a lifetime filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments together.

Look no further for the top officiant
Walter officiated our wedding on 11/23/25. From the start we knew he was the perfect officiant. I had searched for Kansas officiants who would do a "Princess Bride" movie opening to start our wedding and we found him. We talked on the phone to see if he was a good fit for us and we loved his energy and personality so much that we booked immediately, our search stopped there! He lovingly crafted the most perfect ceremony that was true to us and we are still getting compliments on our ceremony and how great he was. Extremely personable and a true delight to have as part of our wedding day. He brought us such true immense joy and the ceremony was easily the highlight of the day after getting to marry my very best friend. I would absolutely recommend him to any and everyone and honestly if I could have another ceremony just to work with him again, I would! Look no further for a diverse and customizable ceremony from someone with one of the biggest hearts around. My guests are still telling me how great he was both in ceremony and while chatting with the other guests. Walter is now like family as far as I'm concerned for how much he means to us and all he gave us. TLDR look no further for the most perfect officiant whether it be fantasy, romantic, sentimental, funny, religious, or any and all above. Absolutely one of our top vendors!
Walter Hrycaj•Dec 1, 2025Thank you so much for this absolutely heart-warming review. Officiating your wedding on 11/23/25 was truly an honor, and getting to bring a “Princess Bride” moment to life for you both was pure joy for me. From our very first conversation, I knew your ceremony would be something special, and it means the world to hear that you felt the same connection. Your kind words about the ceremony, the energy, and the personalization touch me deeply. Knowing that your guests are still talking about it and that it became one of the highlights of your day fills me with immense gratitude. Creating something that felt true to your personalities, your humor, and your love story was a privilege I’ll never forget. Thank you for welcoming me into your celebration with such warmth. To be considered “like family” is one of the highest compliments I could ever receive. I’m so glad I could bring joy to your day, and I will always cherish being part of it. Wishing you both a lifetime of love, laughter, and happily-ever-afters. And should you ever renew your vows or need me again, i’ll be there with a smile and a story. With all my gratitude, Walter

Walter was AMAZING!
Walter officiated our wedding, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From start to finish, he made us feel completely at ease — he knew exactly what to do and when to do it, offering perfect suggestions based on his experience. He really took the time to get to know me and my *now* husband, and to listen to our story. His process was so simple and organized, and he provided a variety of ceremony scripts to choose from, which made it easy to combine pieces and personalize our ceremony to truly fit us as a couple. Beyond his professionalism, Walter’s bubbly personality and kind, genuine nature made the entire experience even more enjoyable. He brought warmth and joy to our day and made everything feel effortless. We’re so grateful to have had him as our officiant and would highly recommend him to any couple looking for someone wonderful to lead their ceremony!
Walter Hrycaj•Oct 27, 2025Thank you so much for this beautiful review! 💛 We’re overjoyed to hear that Walter made your wedding day so special. It truly means the world to know that his care, attention, and personality helped make everything feel effortless and perfectly “you” as a couple. He loves getting to know each couple’s story and creating a ceremony that reflects their unique journey, and it’s wonderful to hear that came through for you both. Your kind words about his warmth, professionalism, and joyful spirit are deeply appreciated — we’ll be sure to share them with him. Congratulations again on your marriage, and thank you for letting Walter be a part of such an unforgettable day! 🥂✨
