About

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! This is one of the most special and unforgettable moments of your lives. You’re probably feeling happy, excited, and a little anxious all at once. You can relax, as far as the ceremony is concerned. I will guide you every step of the way from the marriage license application process, to your vows, to which finger the ring is placed, to the final process of applying for your marriage certificate. I am a non-denominational wedding officiant serving Rhode Island and Massachusetts for over ten years. We will work together to make sure your ceremony reflects the love and commitment you have for each other, and why you have decided to take this relationship to the next level. I also specialize in bilingual ceremonies (English & Spanish). You will have access to my personal cell phone number, as well as my personal email for unlimited consultations. Call or email me, seven days a week, and let’s begin planning this remarkable occasion.

Bilingual Ceremony

Caren is everything we could have hoped for in a wedding officiant. From my first conversation with Caren I knew she would be perfect. She is very easy to talk to, answers all your questions, takes the time to get to know you, and brings a sense of calm to the wedding planning process. After our last touch base before the wedding I knew everything would go perfect because we had Caren.
Caren brought our idea of a bilingual ceremony to life with such grace. Our guests raved about how lovely the ceremony was and how Caren did such a fantastic job balancing not only English and Spanish, but bringing in personal touches, humor, love, and spirituality into the ceremony. Caren made our wedding ceremony better than I could have imagined.

Above and Beyond!!!

Caren,

We are so grateful to have found our way to you. The care and attention you’ve given to our story (in such a short time) have made us feel truly supported and safe, trusting that we are in good hands to fulfill here on Earth what the Lord has already written in Heaven.

Saying "thank you" feels like an understatement. We hope to stay connected and pray that we've touched your heart the same way you have touched ours.

With love always,
Mr. and Mrs. Alvarado

Beautiful backyard wedding 7-27-24

Caren made our day quick and beautiful. Everyone loved how lovely she spoke. How she was able to do it both English and in Spanish for everyone to understand. We did everything ourselves and I’m thankful she explained how the ceremony should be done. Thank you for blessing us on our special day.

Amazing Officiant

Caren was amazing! In our initial conversation, she gathered all the information that she needed to give us a ceremony that we loved. She even included something that we didn't expect that was beautiful and truly expressed our love and devotion to each other.

Caren is the best!

Working with Caren was an amazing experience from start to finish. From our very first introductory phone call, we knew that we needed her as our officiant. Caren has such a warm and calming energy, and she really put our minds at ease. She is so knowledgeable about the ins and outs of weddings, and gave us a lot of really helpful advice since my husband and I were planning the whole thing ourselves. The ceremony was perfect. What Caren wrote was so beautiful and personal because she took the time to get to know us during the process. So many of our guests came up to us after and told us how much they loved her, and how special the ceremony was. I highly recommend working with Caren!

10/10 Best Officiant !!!

I met Caren on instagram and when I saw her I instantly knew we would hit it off. Her fashion, her passion for the job, her personality is electrifying! I wanted someone who understood our weird random things we wanted to do and just our overall chill and none traditional vibe. She was so attentive and even got a custom dress made because she knew I was super into fashion myself and wanted her to be a QUEEN!! Everyone loved her and laugh and so many little details she picked up on about me and my fiancée she even took so much footage of our day from start to finish so that way we could detail video and photos before we got our stuff back. She was amazing anyone would be lucky and blessed to make your wedding day just a little more special. Thank you Caren for everything !!!

Beautiful ceremony!

We were looking for a bilingual officiant who can present the ceremony in Spanish and English. Caren did this beautifully! We met her before the big day and she really spent the time with us to get to know our story to then personalize our ceremony. On top of that she gave us helpful tips and ideas such as allowing our unplugged ceremony have a one minute photoshoot for our guests. They all loved it. Family would tell us that the ceremony was the perfect length and very sweet. Caren is a wonderful person and knows her stuff!!
