Simply Amazing
Cristina was a dream to work with. We knew we wanted a short ceremony, but not much else. She took the time to get to know us and our interests to put together the perfect script for our ceremony. She made the process easy and checked in with us a few times prior to the ceremony go time to make sure we were ready. I could not have asked for a better officiant for our day!

Cristina is so great!
We hired Cristina last minute for our intimate wedding after our original wedding was cancelled due to coronavirus. She was fantastic - she wrote a custom ceremony for us that was absolutely beautiful, and helped us with all of the little things. I highly recommend her, she was a pleasure to work with and made our little backyard ceremony perfect!

Perfect fit for us!
Cristina was amazing, and a perfect fit for our ceremony. Neither my husband or I are religious, so it was important for us to find someone who specialized in non-traditional ceremonies.
Multiple people told us afterwards how much they loved the ceremony and how unique it was. There wasn't just some cookie-cutter speech given, it was so true to us as a couple.
Cristina also performed a handfasting ritual, which was the most perfect ending, and it turned out perfectly!
She's very kind and super easy to talk to, and she'll work with you until you're 100% satisfied with every aspect of the ceremony. She even took care of mailing my marriage certificate out for me!
Would very much recommend!

simply perfect
Cristina was a beyond perfect addition to our very small intimate ceremony. From the beginning she was extremely personable and easy going. She stressed the importance of doing what feels best for my husband and myself. She put together beautiful vows keeping our specifications in mind. The day of the ceremony, I was a bit scattered and stressed about everything being perfect. However Cristina was the picture of professionalism and I personally found her presence to be calming. Which is exactly what I needed at the time. I would without question recommend services to my friends and family.

Perfect ceremony
We had a great experience with Christina. We wanted a short and sweet ceremony and that is exactly what we got. She provided the script early so we could review it. Also, she handled filling out and sending in the marriage certificate. Highly recommend.
