Ebbony was truly as the title says, and then some! Ebbony will create a beautifully tailored wedding ceremony. She is very organized, highly collaborative, and most importantly... thoughtful. You will realize after your first call with her that she will be the perfect fit on your special day and will create a beautifully tailored wedding ceremony.

As a non religious couple, we were nervous on finding an officiant that felt our speed. We truly wanted one of our best friends to officiate but did not want to put the pressure on anyone but also how do you even begin to pick? (We didn't even have a bridal/groom party because again we did not want to pressure our friends with the cost or rank them by choosing a maid of honor / best man) We were looking for someone who fit into our personalities and understood this wedding was not going to be stiff and formal. When I came across Molly - I was so intrigued! We met with her over zoom and it felt right, so we booked! We even added on emcee services since we weren't sure what direction we were headed with on the DJ. I'll admit when it came to paying all the final deposits before the wedding day we thought... yikes.. did we really spend $2k for an officiant/emcee? But after the night was over and we had time to reflect, we'd do it again in a heartbeat! From the care and prep Molly does before the wedding to get to know you, to fully understanding we were not going to have our officiant read off an ipad, to the day of officiating and emceeing - she really allowed us to fully relax and know she had it all taken care of... I did not stress during the wedding ONCE (I feel like that says a lot as the bride). Even all of our guests asked us how we knew her... they really thought she was one of our best friends! I would recommend Molly 10x over!

Bay Area Weddings | Heartfelt Ceremonies was the PERFECT choice for us. Kamla's warmth and calm added so much to our day. She met with us several times prior to the ceremony so we felt as though we really knew her on our big day. She was gracious, accommodating and had some wonderful ideas for our ceremony. We found her to be exceptionally easy to work with. I cannot say enough about her. Our friends and family also commented on how terrific they thought she was. I wish I could give her more stars: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Steve was such a pleasure to work with! Coming from out of state, he made the process very easy. With a detailed Zoom call and a *very* detailed guide, we created the perfect ceremony just for us! Meeting him in person was wonderful, he made the entire process very straightforward and easy and gave us nothing to worry about. We could not recommend him enough!

Working with Rebeca of Rebels Weddings is a literal breath of fresh air. As a planner, I am always looking for vendors who don't just 'do a job' but actually transform the energy of a room—and Rebeca does exactly that. She has a signature positivity and a natural glow that she brings to the ceremony, immediately putting everyone at ease. One of Rebeca's greatest strengths is her ability to incorporate the crowd into the experience. She makes the guests feel like active participants in the love story rather than just spectators. She has a rare gift for storytelling; she gets a couple’s story exactly right, capturing their humor, their depth, and their unique bond with incredible accuracy. Logistically and emotionally, she is a dream partner. She effectively holds the couple's hand through it all, from the initial planning of the vows to the final 'I do.' She is the perfect blend of a grounded professional and a joyful light. If you want a ceremony that feels deeply personal, inclusive, and high-energy, Rebeca is the one!

Diane is one of the kindest people I know. She is incredibly thoughtful, generous, and always willing to lend a helping hand. She is very easy going and loves learning about different cultures and customs. She knows her neighbors well, loves hosting people, and is a beacon of light in the community. She knows how to make people feel comfortable in any situation and at home. I would wholeheartedly recommend her.

We booked Larry to officiate for our small and intimate wedding at Blake Gardens. From the first email, we knew we had chosen the right person. Larry was responsive, professional, and provided us with a ceremony worksheet that made planning stress-free. Larry arrived to the wedding venue first and met with us to make sure all our T's were crossed and i's were dotted. Since we planned our entire wedding ourselves, we wanted to ensure that the officiant we chose could help guide us through our perfect ceremony,; and Larry really delivered. The cherry on top was Larry was sweet and gentle with a great sense of humor. He did great with the guests and showed up as a true professional.

My husband and I have now been together for 25 years, married for 10. My husband and I have now been together for 25 years, married for 10. Howard officiated our marriage 10 years ago. We decided to host a large anniversary celebration in October that included a vow renewal in addition to the party and celebrations. Our event was held in Atlanta, GA where we now reside. Howard helped us with the planning of the anniversary vow renewal and officiated that part of the ceremony / celebration. We had a wonderful experience working with Howard! He is personable and really took the time to understand the atmosphere and style of ceremony we were after. We were looking for something less formal in terms of ceremony in favor of something more personal and inclusive for all our family and friends in attendance. Howard really went the extra mile in terms of working not only with us on our "love letter" vows, but he also worked with several attendees who also participated in the ceremony. Additionally, due to the size of the event we hired and event planner and Howard worked very closely with her on the logistics and planning. The whole process was smooth and well coordinated. Howard brought an incredible amount of warmth and personality to the event itself and we felt totally embraced and well taken care of by him. He was always available to us and the geography / time zone difference was a non-issue. Howard is a pro and we would definitely work with him again for another milestone celebration and or life event! We highly recommend him.

My wife and I couldn’t have asked for a better officiant than Roya for our Persian-American wedding. Initially we were unsure how to honor both of our heritages in a way that felt authentic and engaging, until we found Roya - she exceeded every expectation! From the moment our ceremony began, Roya had our guests captivated. She seamlessly wove together Persian and American wedding traditions, taking the time to explain the cultural significance of each Persian element in a way that was both entertaining and educational. Her storytelling kept everyone engaged, and she beautifully incorporated our personal love story throughout, adding just the right amount of cultural richness without overwhelming the moment. Our guests raved about the ceremony afterward – even five months later, people still bring up how special it was and how memorable she made the experience. Friends and family from both cultures felt equally included and moved by the experience. Roya was also there for our rehearsal the day before, which was exactly what we needed. She walked us through how everything would come together, helped our bridal party and parents understand their roles, and made sure the flow felt clear and natural for everyone If you’re looking for an officiant who can thoughtfully bridge two cultures while designing a ceremony that is authentic to your love story - Roya is the one to choose, she’s exceptional! She took what could have been a challenging task and turned it into the highlight of our wedding day. We’re forever grateful for her talent and expertise.

Marisol was a pleasure to work with. She was highly responsive to messages and meticulous in planning our city hall wedding ceremony. The laminated 'wedding certificates', vows and congratulations card were a thoughtful touch. Thank you for your hard work!
