We had Pradeep Madhyastha as the priest for our daughter’s wedding, and he did an excellent job. He followed all the South Indian Telugu wedding traditions with great care and precision. The ceremony was thorough, quick, and beautifully conducted. He also performed a detailed Satyanarayana Swami Puja, which was very elaborate and meaningful. He truly comes across as a knowledgeable and efficient Pujari. We’re very grateful for his presence during such an important occasion.

Babu Irvine Mandir Murugan volunteer here. I have had the pleasure of knowing Pandit Sri Dattathreya Sharma since 2019. He is an exceptional priest, known for his warm smile and respectful demeanor. His expertise encompasses a wide range of ceremonies, including Pujas, Homas/Hawan, weddings, Grihapravesha (housewarming), Shraddha (annual ceremonies), and Upanayana (thread ceremonies). He is well-versed in conducting various religious events and Pujas across both South and North India. Over the past four years, I have had the opportunity to interact with him and organize numerous events, such as those dedicated to Shiva, Murugan, Ganapathy, Venkateswara, and Amman. I have particularly collaborated with him on several Murugan events, where he has consistently delivered outstanding service to both volunteers and devotees. I greatly appreciated his meticulous attention to detail, prompt communication, and the dedication he showed while performing the rituals. Additionally, he is very soft-spoken and punctual. I wholeheartedly recommend him for anyone seeking his services.

Panditji officiated our wedding last week in Napa Valley CA and helped us in every step. He was very clear about list of things to be arranged so there would not be any last minute issues. The ceremony went well and all guests were really amazed. I would strongly recommend him for all my family and friends.

Pundit was amazing at leading our Hindu wedding ceremony. He was friendly, personal, and very engaging. Our guests could not stop talking about him and how well he led us through the ceremony and explained and related each custom to our modern way of thinking and our first ceremony (Catholic). We were most surprised that he called and collaborated with the Catholic Priest to make our fusion dream come true early on in the process. We really enjoyed that he kept some traditional customs, but added modern values and explanations that were relevant to how we and our family view life. He was very engaging to both sides of the family and had a great sense of humor!! Honestly, we are BEYOND pleased with his service! He was punctual, and replied to the many questions I had (myself being the bride from outside the culture) during the wedding process. Amazing service, and we are so grateful that he was our Pundit Ji for such auspicious day. Also, my in-laws are from Fiji, and we had no idea he was Fijian - it was the cherry on top that day!!! Thank you Pundit Ji.

Priest Pradeep was amazing to have at our wedding! We're from different parts of India but we communicated with him about what traditions we wanted to include and he made sure to include what we wanted and make each of the steps easy. He made the process easy for us and our family, and made it very enjoyable for our guests as well. All our guests said how much they loved our ceremony and our priest, and I find that to be a huge accomplishment for a ceremony that took about an hour! He also had very unique things for each process, and I loved how he had us do the seven steps and had our ring exchange at the front. We're so glad we had Priest Pradeep at our wedding, and it wouldn't have been the same without him.

We had a great experience with Panditji who performed grih pravesh puja for us. We had to change the timing almost three times but he always provided us with alternate date/time and made himself available. He clearly communicated us about puja procedure, things to buy etc. and also arrived on time. The puja was done with utmost perfection with full detail and no hurry. Our parents who attended the puja on video call were very satisfied with the puja.

I'm the father of the bride and we used Punditji for my daughters destination wedding at Terranea in late May. I can't be more thankful or pleased with Punditji!! Hr was by far the BEST decision made for the wedding. He was an absolute pleasure, took time up front to understand what both families expected from the ceremony, he was punctual and really took time to explain the ceremony at kids level!! My daughter is Punjabi and the groom side is gujrati - both kids were attentive through out and actually enjoyed the ceremony!! He has a sense of humor and I would highly recommend Punditji if you are looking for not your run of mill priest who will recite bunch of mantras and kids could care less then pls do get services from Pundit Balram - money well spent and he has helped to create lifetime memories for our family!!

Hello Mr Sharma, Thanks for the wonderful hosting of the wedding. Since we were running late I did not get a chance to properly thank you. Hope you got a chance to grab a bite and had a safe drive back home. Under your (rather stern command the ceremony pulled up beautifully and will stay etched in our hearts. More power to the likes of you who keep the Hindu traditions alive in foreign lands as this

We had Priest Pradeepji perform Annaprasnna Puja for our baby girl. He is the best priest we have found and were very engaged in the manner he performed the Puja. He is a dedicated and sincere Priest and you immediately start to feel positivity going around as he chants the mantras and performs the Puja. We have never felt this way with any other Priest. He is very understanding of your situation and will do what works for you! We noticed him perform the Puja in an authentic Rigveda style! We would want to use his services for all our future events! Highly highly recommend him!

Absolutely loved purohit Pradeep's service. Even before the service he gave proper directions on all the things that is needed. He is very responsive if you have any questions ahead of the ceremony. He was punctual and did not miss a beat. He conducted our baby shower ceremony and did an absolutely fantastic job, he explained the process every step of the way and made the guests feel involved and included in the ceremony. He also has a good sense of humor. Overall, would highly recommend his services and would definitely be going back to him in the future.

Panditji officiated our wedding a few weeks ago and helped us along the way with everything. He meticulously gave us a list of everything we needed so there would not be any last minute issues. The ceremony itself which he performed was very thorough and enjoyable. At every step he made sure the why of it in a very easy to grasp and entertaining way. He was also naturally interacting with our guests during the ceremony making it very enjoyable for them too. Would definitely recommend his services to our friends.

Pandit Pradeep is the best priest in the Bay Area. I have worked with several priests and none of them match his quality. He does not cut corners. In addition, he explains the rituals well and also directs the other vendors (e.g., Photography). This is my first experience with this priest and we plan to keep him as our permanent priest.
