Hearts Crossing

My fiancé and I are in our mid seventies and knew we wanted to get married in our beautiful backyard located along the historic Old Santa Fe Trail. Our desire was to incorporate centuries old ceremonial traditions of the indigenous people and early settlers who have lived on our land.
We met with ChrisTina and immediately knew we had stuck gold. She listened to our goals and was so easy to get along with.
The day of the wedding was a soft, late summer afternoon, under an outdoor tent with 40 close friends and relatives. ChrisTina drew everyone into the ceremony and created an atmosphere of joyous celebration. Most guests had tears of joy as they participated with hands held to their hearts.
We are so grateful to ChrisTina for giving us this memorable day.

If you are looking for an officiant that is present, gifted with words, and aware of how truly special a marriage union is, ChrisTina is who you are looking for. From the first call, and cemented in our first meeting, we felt the awareness and intention that ChrisTina has for who she works with, and their dreams for their wedding. She is a great listener and will hear and SEE you and yours. She is flexible, seen in how she was willing to work with us on a relatively short timeframe. She pays attention to the detail and brings those details into the ceremony with the talent of a wordsmith, that she is. She brings traditions from cultures here and far with such reverence. We could go on and on about ChrisTina and feel blessed not only to have had her be a central part of our ceremony, but to have crossed her path in general. 1111/10 stars!

Christina provided an amazing service. Had 3 interviews with us and even went over things with my now wife on a phone conversation before we got married. Would highly recommend her if you want a ceremony that everyone will remember. Several people came up to me and said that was the best service they have ever seen.

Right from the beginning of working with Christina, my now husband and I were compelled by her process of getting to know us individually, as well as as a couple, to craft the perfect ceremony. To say the ceremony was special, would be a disservice to the experience she created. It’s hard to explain the significance of the moment she crafted for our wedding ceremony because it was so unique and catered to our spirituality as well as grounded in the New Mexican landscape that it is a memory I will cherish forever. I am so grateful to ChrisTina for marrying us and I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Finding ChrisTina was a dream come true. She brought together the most unique and meaningful ceremony for our wedding in October that blended us as a couple with our love for nature and wanted to have a ceremony that felt bonding. She listened to everything we wanted and brought to life what we were imagining. She was easy to communicate with and responsive to our questions. She guided us through the whole process and came very prepared the day of. We got so many compliments on our wedding ceremony and it's uniqueness and how perfect is was for us as a couple! And all of those compliments were thanks to what ChrisTina brought to life for us! I will cherish that day and the memories forever.

Christina was the perfect fit for our wedding which was non-denominational, very spiritual. She made us do our homework (and did hers!) and crafted the ceremony specifically to us. Incredibly special, she made sure to learn about our families and included everyone. Put in hours of her time with us both together and separately in the weeks leading up to our date. Crafted her alter specifically to fit with our color arrangement. She has packages to fit different price ranges. Would highly recommend Christina's services we feel quite lucky to have found her. Made sure our special day went off with a hitch if you'll pardon the pun. 10/10

From the very beginning, ChrisTina made us feel seen, heard, and deeply understood. I’ve always struggled with feeling like I deserve big, meaningful moments, and after waiting so long for this wedding, the importance of it is hard for me to put into words. Somehow, she understood that without me ever having to explain it.

She poured so much love into our ceremony and into us as a couple. She listened intently, asked thoughtful questions, and truly took the time to know our story. She made the entire experience incredibly personal, spiritual, and intentional. One of the things that meant the most to me was how much she wanted to involve our children, it made our family feel honored and whole.

At our rehearsal dinner, ChrisTina did something I will remember for the rest of my life: she invited everyone there to share something special about us and our relationship. Hearing our loved ones take the time to speak about us so intentionally was incredibly moving and meant the world to me.

Even when we ran into complications and couldn’t get our marriage license in time due to ID issues, she went above and beyond. She met with us the day after the wedding to sign the paperwork, and then had us read our vows to each other again, privately, just the two of us. It was such a special, intimate moment, and I will treasure it forever.

ChrisTina is truly made for this work. While she may be an investment, she is 100% worth it. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an officiant who brings heart, depth, and genuine care into one of the most important moments of your life.

We cannot exaggerate how wonderful ChrisTina was to work with. She was focused and thorough, but always human and in touch. We were seeking an "elopement" (that is, no guests; just the two of us) for what was the second wedding for both of us and we really wanted it to be meaningful to and memorable for us. ChrisTina created a ceremony that attained these goals completely.

She interviewed both of us separately and together, and had each of us complete a fairly intensive but valuable questionnaire. Through these interactions, she got to know us as individuals and as a couple, understanding who we were and why we were (and wanted to be) together. And the ceremony she created could not have reflected that any better.

We were married in Santa Fe's beautiful botanical garden on partly cloudy, blustery day in the early fall. The words ChrisTina said and beautiful altar and rituals she crafted were like a mirror reflecting back to us the couple we had become and hoped to be.

ChrisTina was amazing, period. Our recommendation of her is strong and unhesitating.

Christina at Heart's Crossing was the perfect wedding officiant. We wanted a ceremony that was an intergrative spiritual experience. Christina gave us that and more. My wife and I walked away from the alter buzzing with love. We were married and bound by our intentions, nature, the four elements, our attendees(which became active participants) and Christina—who orchestrated it all. She navigated through the chaos to bring us a calm, grounded ceremony. Many guests later said, "that was the most romantic wedding I've ever been to". Christina knew how to coax the romance and love out so it could be properly shown to our guests. We spent time prior discussing our life, love and relationship with Christina. She made sure she understood us and our relationship. She talked with our wedding party at the rehearsal to get an even deeper feel for us and our community. We felt seen the whole time. This and the exercises she recommended made the process leading up to the ceremony special. It felt ceremonial from the beginning to rehearsal to when we finally got married—it was like everything had been leading up to that moment.

My wife and I are happily married and will always look back on that day as a powerful, beautiful and, most importantly, fun day.

My one regret is not completing Christina's questionaire sooner so we could have worked with her a bit more. We were very busy and took much longer than we should have to complete it. Christina was very understanding and accommodating, however I wouldn't have minded some more check ins. This is on us and not her, however.

It was a reminder to take time out of wedding planning to reflect on and acknowledge our love—which is what Christina helped us do once we finished the questionnaire. She also used quotes from us in our ceremony which was a nice touch.

If you're getting married by Christina you're in good caring hands. She'll make the day magical for you, but also the wedding party and guests.

I really appreciate all you did, Christina. Thank you!

ChrisTina is a truly divine officiant who brings a deep spiritual essence to the sacred commitment of marriage. She devoted her time to genuinely honor our union, the blessings of our families, and the love that binds us. ChrisTina took the time to understand the unique connection between me and my husband before our wedding, ensuring that our ceremony was a beautiful and unforgettable experience. She reaches into the depths of the spiritual realm, creating a sacred and inclusive space that resonates with all. Thank you, ChrisTina, for your transcendent guidance and for making our ceremony a memorable celebration of love.
