The most wonderful wedding officiant

Carolyn was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process leading up to our wedding and on the day of. We ended up switching venues at the last minute, and she was extremely flexible and supportive. The ceremony was very emotional, and she guided us with kindness while making sure everything flowed perfectly. She even handled our small mistakes during the ceremony with grace and humor. We truly could not have asked for a better officiant than Carolyn.

Thank You Very Much!

Carolyn, thank you for all your help! We really appreciate all of the useful tips and documents that you provided us. Your guidance has helped us find our inner voice to come through in our personal vows and made the marriage license process something we looked forward to. Thank you as well for extending your services to file our marriage license for us. An additional fee for a lot less stress on our Wedding Day was an easy decision. We also love how beautiful our keepsake marriage license came out to be and are thankful that our bridesmaids and groomsmen could sign it with us.

In regards to the ceremony, you did a wonderful job with the speech. It was just as we had imagined. Thank you for taking what we wrote and elevating it to new heights. We loved all the classic Disney and Kingdom of Hearts quotes. Our mothers loved the presentation roses as well. Thank you for suggesting incorporating that into the ceremony. They were touched by the gesture.

As a result, we'd highly recommend Carolyn Alexander as an officiant. She went above and beyond. We suggest reserving the date well in advance (i.e. at least a year or more) to ensure she is available. It was a magical evening and it wouldn't have been the same without you.

Excellent Officiant

Carolyn was an excellent officiant. She was recommended by our wedding planner so we knew we could trust her before meeting. We had an initial phone meeting that went great and she was very flexible with the script and outline of the ceremony. She had options we could choose from or we could totally customize it. We customized ours and she was totally accommodating. She also answered our questions about the marriage license and different parts of the ceremony as well. On the day of, she was very knowledgeable and personable. She did a great job walking us through the ceremony. And she saved the day as the bride's mother forgot her dress and she lived far from the venue, so it had the potential to push our whole wedding back over an hour, but Carolyn had an extra outfit with her that she let us use so she could walk her down the aisle on time. It was a really nice gesture and saved the day. We would highly recommend!

Jannina and Colin 3.16.2025 The Hacienda

We are incredibly grateful to Rev. Carolyn Alexander for making our wedding day special and memorable. From the beginning, she was warm, responsive, and truly invested in ensuring our ceremony reflected exactly what we envisioned. She was more than willing to hop on several phone calls to review every detail and help us feel confident and prepared.

On the day of the ceremony, Carolyn brought a calm, joyful presence and even made a few small, thoughtful adjustments that added a beautiful, personal touch. She officiated a Christian ceremony that honored our faith and made God the center of it all, just as we had hoped.

We could not have asked for a more compassionate, professional, and spiritually grounded officiant. Thank you, Carolyn, for being such an important part of our wedding day. You helped make it everything we dreamed it would be.

Wedding Officiant Review

Carolyn is an A+ officiant, and an even better person. Carolyn was incredibly gracious and helpful from step 1 in being an officiant for our wedding. She was transparent and flexible to our preferences for certain parts of the ceremony.

We had many guests give us complements in our selection of the officiant and noted the beauty of Carolyn's words and delivery. My wife and I truly believe it made a difference in bringing the right vibe and mood for our ceremony, and she made our dream ceremony a reality.

Thank you Carolyn, it was a pleasure working with you and I will refer you to anyone getting married in the LA area 10/10 times.

Outstanding!!

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
You were so precise in putting together the most touching wedding ceremony. The Bible verse was so on the spot for us. When my husband and I met we both had that verse written down. He had it on his cross necklace and I had it written on my dream napkin that I had prayed over before God brought him into my life 🥹
Just hands down amazing and breathtaking ceremony.
The kids loved every minute of it and being included meant a lot. Thank you for the best elopement ceremony. May God continue to bless you in all your endeavors.

A beautiful, supportive soul

I thought trying to find just the right person to be a part of our very special day would be challenging. Fortunately for us, our venue recommended Carolyn and we knew immediately she would be perfect! She gets to know you as a couple and becomes so much a part of your support system during this somewhat stressful time. Thank you so much, Carolyn, for all your guidance and for who you are!

No matter where you get married, Reverend Carolyn will bring her magic!

Reverend Carolyn is truly a gift. From the moment we first connected with her, we felt her warmth, wisdom, and genuine care. She crafted and delivered a ceremony that was deeply personal, heartfelt, and full of meaning to us and our girls— it was everything we hoped for and more. Her words stayed with us long after the day ended.

We were coming in from another state to get married and the fact that she was able to acquire our wedding license on our behalf was a LIFE SAVER. Not only that, her guidance through the entire process was incredibly helpful and easy to follow— she saved us so much time and stress!

If you are looking for someone to officiate your ceremony with heart, grace, and true presence, Reverend Carolyn IS that person. We are endlessly grateful to her.

Thoughtful, Creative & Supportive

Carolyn was so wonderful and helped us in many different ways. She was very creative with our vows and spent time getting to know us and including magical custom Disney touches that made us feel very unique and understood. She had a calm, caring and loving way about her at our ceremony and throughout the entire process. We highly recommend using her for your ceremony - she is a very special, caring person.

Our Fairy Godmother

Working with Carolyn was a huge blessing. She was able to make my dream wedding ceremony happen within a short amount of time. I felt like I was in a movie or a dream when she officiated our wedding too. Her professionalism was beyond anything I expected, she was wonderful! She helped us acquire our wedding certificate as well which was SUCH a huge help for my husband's and my busy schedule. I will definitely recommend her to anyone I know getting married in the future! I will always cherish that she was a part of my husband's and my special day.

Love working with these two wonderful people, so much that I refer them to all of my own family and friends. It's always a special day when they are officiating a wedding. They take great care to ensure that each ceremony is thoughtful and beautiful, and every wedding I have photographed with them has been seamless. The couple and family are always happy with the ceremonies they perform, and often mention to me how happy they were to have had them. In addition to beautiful ceremonies, they are also incredibly kind and reliable. You are in great hands with Norman or Carolyn, I highly recommend both of them.
