I’ve been officiating weddings since 2012, and one of my favorite things is helping couples create a beautiful, memorable ceremony that they and their guests will remember forever. My goal is for couples to have the ceremony they have dreamed of by collaborating with them to customize their ceremony to them as a couple. Many couples want to keep it short and simple, while others prefer to include personal touches like including their love story or what they love about each other, or the touch of a candle lighting, sand ceremony, wine box ceremony including personal letters to each other, or a number of other unity ceremonies. I love hearing from guests and the couple themselves how touched they were, and I was even moved to tears at the commitment taking place.
I was ordained as a minister in 2012 and began public speaking in 2008. I am very comfortable speaking in front of crowds, and I enjoy it very much. I’m also able to officiate bilingual ceremonies in both English and Spanish. Having learned Spanish since kindergarten, my Spanish pronunciation is good.
I do many types of ceremonies, including:
- non-denominational
- traditional
- same-sex
- civil
- multi-faith
- vow renewals
- bilingual Spanish/English
I also love having fun with ceremonies. My business name, As You Wish Weddings, is a nod to The Princess Bride, and I have been asked many times to include lines from the wedding scene, accent included! I LOVE doing that! I’ve also added lines from couples’ favorite movies and shows such as Ted Lasso, Parks and Rec, The Office, Schitt’s Creek, Star Wars, etc.
When I am not officiating weddings, I am a life coach, helping women transform their confidence from the inside out to see their worth, empowering them to reach their dreams and believe in themselves.
I also use my coaching skills to help many engaged couples through pre-marital coaching before they tie the knot. This helps the couple make sure they are on the same page about the big stuff, and gives them additional communication skills to work through challenges as they arise, bringing them even closer together before making their life long commitment.
As You Wish Wedding Officiant is a wedding officiant based in Woodland, California.

Professional, Personalized and Welcoming
Our favorite moment was on the day of the wedding - we were both feeling a little overwhelmed - and she simply said "Don't worry. Just follow my lead." Basically communicating "I got you" - those simple words helped us relax and enjoy the day!
Additionally, she was so knowledgable about the paperwork, which was a huge stress relief. The clerk at the county had told us stories of marriage certificates being rejected or needing to be redone because of errors on the form. We emailed her and she was on it - saying she had done hundreds without a problem in the past. Putting our minds at ease, we could focus on what mattered most to us. Everything went well and our certificate was approved!
We cannot say enough great things about Erin. She is smart, caring and very good at her job. Her experience and confidence are reassuring. We highly recommend her!
