Thankful to have had Cliff as our officiant

We wanted a simple ceremony with room for personal vows and also needed our officiant to speak Spanish because we wanted a small portion to be in Spanish. Cliff created a customized ceremony that was truly the most memorable part of our day. He is attentive, thoughtful, and overall great at what he does. We recommend him to any couple looking for an officiant for their special day!

Great experience using Cliff as our Spanish-speaking Officiant

Had our wedding this past Friday October 2nd in Central Park and we couldn't be happier with the officiant services provided by Cliff Gonzalez. We wanted to have our ceremony 100% in Spanish because we were video streaming it for our families and friends in Mexico and we wanted them to feel as close to us and as comfortable as possible. Cliff was key to help us reach our goals and to make our wedding a very successful event. We interviewed a number of officiants and felt more comfortable with him than with any of the others we talked to. He was friendly, warm, calm and flexible. He sent us many ideas for the outline of the ceremony and was quite flexible to accommodate our thoughts. We feel very comfortable recommending Cliff to officiate your ceremony.

Cliff was absolutely greta

My husband and I had a micro wedding due to the current pandemic so we had very limited time to plan and we contacted Cliff only a week or so before our wedding date. He was so flexible and available to answer our questions and concerns. He made the process of planning our ceremony very pleasant and easy! I love that we were able to have an intimate bilingual ceremony that was perfect for my husband and I.

Ayende Santana Ceremony

Cliff was professional. We requested a religious ceremony which he was very knowledgeable on and for it to be conducted in Spanish. Which made the day that more special. Highly recommend!

If you've come to this site desperate to find an officiant, and you're trying to find a gem in the huge list of possible choices... look no further. Cliff is your man.

We were assisting our son, who is from California, with the coordination of his marriage to be held in New York City. I came to this site looking for suggestions for an officiant for his wedding, and found that Cliff had excellent ratings and reviews. Well, there's a reason for that.

From the very first communication we had with Cliff, we knew we had made a good choice. He was friendly, open, honest, and engaging, and seemed passionate about planning the perfect ceremony. He spent much time on the phone, both with us and with the grooms-to-be, to ensure that he was going to hit the mark.

The ceremony was held in Central Park, and it turns out that the spot we intended to use had been reserved for that same time by another wedding party. So we were forced to move to another nearby location for our ceremony. Cliff took this completely in stride, put us all at ease, and delivered a heartfelt, beautiful, and memorable service. Perfect.

Cliff has, and deserves, our highest personal recommendation. Thanks, Cliff, for making our son's special day... special.

Cliff was the most easy going, personable and flexible officiant you’ll ever meet. From the minute we spoke over the phone up until the wedding day and afterwards he has been nothing but a joy to work with. We are very fortunate to find Cliff and we definitely recommend him.
