Hiring Ethel Alenga was the best investment we made for our wedding. She was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From day one, they took the time to understand our vision and kept everything organized. We didn't have to worry about a single detail on our big day and could actually be present to enjoy it. We will always recommend Ethel Alenga .

Celia was absolutely fantastic! She made our day all the more special with her positive energy. Her ability to capture our 11 year relationship in a 17 minute ceremony, was truly impressive; So much so, that some of our guests came to us and asked if she was a family friend. We are both truly grateful to have had Celia be the one to marry us. If you want someone who is down to earth, thoughtful, and attentive; Then you need to pick Celia.

Richard was one of the best choices we made for our entire wedding. He made everything so incredibly easy and he has the warmest and most genuine personality I think I've ever seen. He helps calm the nerves through everything, and he makes your ceremony EXACTLY how you want it. We wanted our ceremony to be short and sweet and I think the whole thing from start to finish was 15 minutes which was perfect for us. He was kind, humerous, and professional in every interaction we had with him. I got compliments throughout the reception and after the wedding about how wonderful and perfect he was. He handles all the paperwork and guides you through any questions you could possibly have. I couldn't recommend him highly enough. If I could give him a million stars I would!

My husband and I couldn’t be more thankful that we found Maureen.  She quickly became more than just a wedding vendor but someone we came to know, love and trust.  We worked with Maureen for about a year leading up to the wedding. Our monthly zoom calls where we laugh, cried, got to know each other, and learn about partnerships and marriage quickly became something we both looked forward to.  Maureen created the most beautiful and personalized ceremony. All of our guests were in awe of the program that she helped to create. Our ceremony felt so deeply personal and her words touched us and our guests hearts. She was a calming presence through it all. I could not recommend Maureen more for a weddings. She was such a light for my husband and I. We felt so loved by her. We are so incredibly thankful for her love and support and so glad that we got the honor to have her marry us.

We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding officiant! Michael was warm, professional, and genuinely invested in making our ceremony feel personal and meaningful. He took the time to understand our story and was open to all of our wants/needs/changes to create a ceremony that truly reflected us as a couple. Everything was handled smoothly, and his calm, positive presence helped make our special day even more memorable. We highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for an officiant who truly cares about their couples!

Mitch is one of a kind. He is warm and kind yet hilarious and fun. He was perfect for my ceremony and it seems as he was meant to be the minister for us as we will literally never forget this man.

Rev. Glenn was a fantastic officiant for our wedding day. He has such a great demeanor, sense of humor, and voice for officiating. He came early and prepared, he was very professional and flexible, and truly makes the experience about your love. We got many compliments from guests who found Rev. Glenn's service both beautiful and entertaining. He provides a thorough ceremony kit which made it easy to customize the ceremony to our liking. Even though we only knew each other for a short time, he made it seem like we were long time friends. We highly recommend Rev. Glenn!

April did a great job officiating our wedding! Our ceremony was perfect and exactly as we envisioned. During the planning phase, April first got to know us as a couple and how we pictured our ceremony. A couple months out from the wedding, she provided us with a draft of the ceremony and we had some back and forth revisions until it was perfect. She frequently reminded us that we had 100% veto rights and she would not say anything we didn’t want her to say. At our ceremony April told our story, did a knot tying ritual that we requested, and kept the focus on us instead of her. Our guests both laughed and cried. Would highly recommend April to anyone getting married!

Choosing Father Vince Corso to officiate our wedding at Perona Farms was such a meaningful decision for us. We wanted our ceremony to reflect our Christian faith while still feeling personal to us as a couple, and we appreciated the time he took to help us think through what that would look like. One of the things that stands out most is meeting with him at his home before the wedding. We were able to talk through the ceremony in detail—from the readings and vows to remembering loved ones and incorporating a blessing with bread and wine. He gave us room to consider what mattered to us, rather than simply handing us a standard ceremony to follow. His willingness to learn about our relationship and use that in preparing his reflection made the process feel especially personal. We also appreciated his attention to the practical details. He helped us understand the marriage-license process, filed our signed license after the wedding, and followed up with instructions and a sample application for obtaining our certified copies. That care after the wedding meant a great deal, especially when there were still so many things to wrap up. Father Vince, thank you for the time, thought, and care you gave to preparing us for this important moment in our lives. We would warmly recommend you to couples looking for an officiant who takes both the meaning of marriage and the couple’s individual wishes seriously. —Riya & Cyril
