Elder Amara Diallo
Elder Amara Diallo — Ceremony & officiant services
Elder Amara Diallo works out of Dakar and has spent 4 years leading ceremonies, from small private bookings through to ceremonies joining two faiths. The ceremony is written with you — your words, your traditions, and the readings and rituals that mean something to your families. The approach starts with what your day actually is, not with a package that has to be talked into fitting it.
Two meetings cover the structure, the vows, the readings and who stands where, so nothing important is decided on the day itself. Every booking includes a full written script you approve in advance, and a rehearsal before the day. Questions are answered in writing, changes to the plan are normal and cost nothing before the event, and you always know who will actually be there on the day.
Elder Amara Diallo is based in Dakar and works in fr / en. Bookings start at 45 000 XOF and a written quote follows within 1h, itemised so you can see what drives the figure. Most clients book eight to twelve months ahead; peak Saturdays go first, so earlier is safer. Nothing is owed until you accept the quote.
You won't be charged yet
We changed the plan twice in the last month and it was never a problem. Calm, organised and completely reliable.
Answered every question quickly in the run-up, and on the day just quietly got on with it. The difference was obvious.
Booking was straightforward and the written quote matched the final invoice exactly. No surprises, which is all you want.
Blended everything so smoothly that nobody sat down all night. Several guests asked us for the contact before they left.
Flawless for our 400-person gala — polished, punctual and genuinely easy to work with. Would book again without hesitating.
Read the room perfectly and kept our guests going right through the last song. Everything ran to time and we never had to chase anything.
Calendar updates in real time. Greyed dates are already booked — message to confirm yours.
