Fantastic and simple ceremony

We wanted to elope but that ended up not working out. We still wanted to keep it contained, small, short and simple and Mitzi did just that. She was very thoughtful and respectful about what we wanted and made it amazing. Even though it was a short ceremony, just how we wanted it, it was filled with a lot of laughs and of course, happy tears.

We Loved Working with Mitzi!

Working with Mitzi was so easy, we highly recommend her if you are in need of an officiant! She's so professional and her communication was really good leading up to the event and the day of the wedding was perfect- just as planned! The ceremony was intimate and had a few funny moments, just as we wanted. Her questionnaire was thorough which is how she got to know us and write about us + we had a 1 hour zoom call to get aligned on the type of ceremony we wanted. Guests even commented that they really liked Mitzi :)

Energy we all need

Mitzi was found by a simple YELP search, but her services, professionalism, and time was everything BUT simple. My Husband and I (I LOVE SAYING THAT) were looking for a simple civil completion of our marriage due to circumstances, with plans for celebration in the future and Mitzi was available on the fly. She even made it a point to provide several locations that still provided the "romantic, special" moment. After getting to know my husband and I briefly, she constructed a beautiful and Personal "speech" for us that even brought me to tears. She took it a step further and with our permission of course, performed a beautiful ritual. Although it was a "simple" doing, the time, effort, and love she put out was something we will cherish forever. We are so glad that she did this for us. Her energy is literally the energy I believe any couple needs whether small or large. She is a bubbly and genuinely nice human being and that is hard to find in this world today. Mitzi, we can't thank you enough for your love, energy, professionalism, promptness, and your time. May God continue to bless you and will definitely keep in touch as you offered amazing resources to us!

I strive to create the wedding ceremony that is unique to every couple I work with. I've always been a people person; I'm an extrovert, and I love connecting with people. I love listening, sharing stories, and finding out what makes your coupleship the unique and amazing entity that it is. As your Wedding Officiant, I'm called to use the skills and gifts that are most important to me: being a guide, a listener, a discerner, a supporter, a creator, and a friend. It is my joy to assist you in creating the wedding ceremony that will nourish you emotionally and spiritually for decades to come.

I have my BA in Psychology from California State University, Northridge, and my Masters in Jewish Studies from The Academy for Jewish Religion, CA, and I hold a Chaplaincy Certification from AJRCA as well. I am also affiliated with the International Association of Professional Wedding Officiants, as well as the Church of Spiritual Humanism. And, I am an active member of the Women Cantors Network.
