So elegant and special!

Christobel was the perfect addition to our wedding ceremony. First, she is just the most darling person you'll ever meet! Second, her accent is charming! And, third, the ceremony she crafted for us was so perfectly suitable to us as a couple. Everyone cried, groom and bride included. We highly recommend Christobel for all your wedding officiating needs! She's a pleasure!

Our wedding was this past Sunday Sept 17th and let me tell you Christobel made it unforgettable. From the moment we talked to her on the phone we knew she was the perfect fit for us. Christobel treated us like family; she opened up her home to us on several occasions to go over our ceremony. We were even able to bring our daughter to these meeting and Christobel's sweet dog Charleston kept her busy for us. The day of the ceremony went perfectly everyone was talking about how great she was and what a wonderful and unique ceremony we had. If it weren't for Christobel we would not have had the ceremony of our dreams. Christobel is so easy to talk to and is the type of person you want to keep as a friend forever. She can help any couple pick the perfect vows even if you have no idea what you are wanting at first. Christobel has it all and she will not disappoint!!

Christobel was a lovely person to work with. Our wedding took place on July 8, 2017. I live in Phoenix and I decided to have a destination wedding in San Antonio because all of my family lives in Texas. I found Christobel after reading reviews on the knot and wedding wire. I called her one evening around 6pm CST without realizing what time it was in Texas. Without hesitation, Christobel took the time to get to know me and learn more about my fiancé during that call. She also read me a few of the different ceremonies she offers. They were all beautiful and well written. I even teared up as she read them. The day of the wedding, Christobel spent some time with the groomsmen and they loved her! She has a great sense of humor. Overall, she is the sweetest person and our ceremony turned out beautiful. Thank you Christobel!

We were so fortunate to have picked Christobel out of what seemed like a sea of officiants! She is definitely one of a kind and you will not regret picking her for your special day. From all of the weddings I've been to, you're lucky if you get an officiant who doesn't drag on with bible verses and offers the wedding attendants an occasional laugh. With Christobel, you don't need jokes to make the service bearable, it is short and filled with the most beautiful words you will ever hear. Christobel has definitely done her research, bringing together heart-warming and passionate words from all over the world and from every era. She gives you plenty of service options to pick from, and I promise picking your favorites will be the hardest part about working with her!! Make sure to take the time to meet her before the ceremony, I promise it is worth it and her gigantic rottweiler Charleston is absolutely precious. She makes you feel so special and treats your wedding vows as what they are-- the most important words you will ever say and hear. She is also very flexible! We had pouring rain start 30 minutes before the ceremony, and while we were slightly off schedule, she was totally open to doing the ceremony in the wet grass last minute when the clouds parted, and she would have done it inside as well if that's what we had decided on. While everyone loved the ceremony and said that it was "absolutely beautiful," most of the words I heard about her from friends and family were, and I quote verbatim, "I LOVE her!" She was an excellent presence and you will see what I mean the second you speak on the phone with her! That all being said, I hope we will remain in touch with her throughout our years, because she really is just a wonderful person and exactly who I feel we deserved to help us claim our love as ever-lasting. We adore her!

Christabel is professional and the wedding ceremony was perfect. Her message was wonderful and was appreciated by everyone attending. Our son and his wife chose wisely when asking Christabel to perform their wedding ceremony.

If you are in search for an officiant please stop searching and choose Christobel. I don't even know where to begin with just how amazing she is. She is so flexible with EVERYTHING. She truly cares about you and understands that this is your day and does everything to make it as easy as possible. She let us customize our own ceremony and her words are just so heartfelt and beautiful. We got married on 2/4/17 and I still have people commenting on how our ceremony was the best ceremony that they have ever gone too. She made everyone cry and really set the mood into our reception.

Side note: My wife and I originally planned on going with another officiant before we had the chance to meet Christobel and I wont mention any names but she treated us so horrible and wanted to charge so many fees that were never discussed. She had to cancel and reschedule us twice before we even initially met her and Instead of making it about my wife and I she made it all business and money. We ended up changing our mind on her and that is when we got the pleasure to meet Christobel and when I explained this to Christobel she almost got into tears just because she felt for my wife and I.

I am so glad and happy things turned out the way they did just because not only did we have a beautiful ceremony but my wife and I have made a friend for a lifetime and we couldn't be happier.

Lastly, if you are looking for a genuine person, a person that loves her job, and a person that will make the best day of your life so memorable you HAVE to go with her.

Thank you Christobel. Jessica and I love you and wish you the best in your future! I know you will do great because you're hands down the best person we have ever met. Stay the energizing bunny that you are :)

From the moment that we met Christobel, we knew that she was the perfect person to marry us. She is so full of joy and she loves what she does - oh, and her accent is amazing! When we first met, she shared some options for our ceremony and we loved them all. We were looking for something that had a traditional feel, but we also wanted it to be relaxed and heartfelt. Christobel is so eloquent with her words and as she read the ceremony options to us, my fiancé even started to tear up! We knew right then and there that Christobel would be our officiant. Leading up to our day, Christobel was always available to answer any questions we had! On the day of, she arrived early and was so cheerful - she even gave some of our rowdy groomsmen a hard time and they INSTANTLY fell in love with her - it was fantastic! Andrew and I are so glad that we chose Christobel to be a part of our day - we couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect officiant!

Christobel is a wonderful and professional officiant! We received SO many compliments about how she conducted ceremony and spoke oh so eloquently. She is very welcoming and we met her at her house for a consultation and once again to go over the ceremony details. We were able to pick and choose what we wanted in our ceremony and she was very accommodating with wording and order. I even called her a couple of weeks beforehand to change wording on one of the traditions we had included (arras) and she reassured me by phone and by a follow up email that it will be taken care of. She is quick to respond to emails and has many suggestions and is open to yours as well. I will forever recommend her.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
