    Gentle Gina

    Gina is kind, quick to respond, and easy!!! I talked to some others first (for a simple elopement) and they needed to talk with me and this and that even after I said 5 minute ceremony, no frills. When I worked with Gina, it was SIMPLE...she sends a quetionaire that you can do on your own time. If you need more of her attention, she'll give it but she followed my lead and didn't bug me!!! Also, above average responsiveness!!! TY Gina!

    Shelley,
    Thank you so much for your kind words—it truly means a lot! I’m so glad the process felt simple and stress-free for you, because that’s exactly what I strive for. Every couple has a different vision, and I always want to match your pace and preferences—whether that’s quick and easy or more involved.

    I really appreciated the opportunity to connect and be part of your journey in some way. Wishing you both all the happiness in the world as you start this next chapter together! 💛

    Gina was just what we hoped for ...

    From the first phone call through til the end of the ceremony, Gina was present, kind, professional. She has a warmth and intuition that she brings to her service. She went the extra mile, literally, to officiate at our wedding, which was a bit of a drive for her. We couldn't have asked for more. Her cost for service is reasonable.

    We highly recommend Gina!

    Rivere Ceremonies's reply:

    Thank you so much, Amie’, for your incredibly kind words. It was truly an honor to be part of such a beautiful and meaningful day in your lives. From our very first conversation, I could feel the love and intention behind your ceremony, and it meant the world to me to help bring that vision to life.

    Going the extra mile is easy when working with couples like you — your joy, warmth, and connection made every moment worthwhile. Thank you for trusting me with something so sacred. I wish you both a lifetime filled with love, laughter, and countless beautiful memories. ❤️

    Thank you again for the recommendation — it means more than you know!

    — Gina, Rivere Ceremonies

    Absolutely Amazing!

    Gina was terrific from the first encounter to the very end! The script she formulated was outstanding and captured us as a couple to the finest details. Very pleased with her services & would recommend her to anyone that needs her for officiating!

    If I could give 6 stars, I would!

    Mrs. Gina was amazing from the beginning to even after the wedding! Her communication, attention to detail, friendly demeanor, and willingness to truly go the distance would warrant my recommendation for sure. I had no clue how I wanted my ceremony to go, and she was great at making a dialogue that fit our needs even with the little details I had given her to start out with. She was very easy to reach and answered any questions we had leading up to and during the wedding. The cherry on top was her ability to go above and beyond her labeled services... she very graciously provided us with a few sneak peeks of our wedding pictures (which came out great), and when the worst nightmare of any newlyweds happened... (the postal system had lost our licenses in the mail) she jumped into action to do whatever she could to ensure we got everything submitted how it was supposed to be. I cannot thank her enough for everything she has done to ease this tired bride's mind! If you're ever in need of an angel to marry you, this is your officiant!

    Rivere Ceremonies's reply:

    Elizabeth,
    Thank you for your kind words and amazing 5 star review. I was honored to be a part of your special day and I enjoyed working with you to create your beautiful ceremony. I hope you have a lifetime of love and happiness 😂

    10 out of 10 would recommend!

    My wife and I went to New Orleans to elope and Gina was the perfect officiant for our private ceremony! She did a fantastic job writing the ceremony and took care in implementing our input into it.

    On the actual day of Gina met us downtown for the ceremony, gave us all the important information we needed, then delivered the ceremony. Would highly recommend if you’re getting married in the area!

    Rivere Ceremonies's reply:

    Marcus,
    Thank you for choosing me to be a part of your special day and for the 5-star rating. It was an honor to perform your ceremony. I hope you both have a lifetime of love and happiness.

    Best in town.

    Gena was the perfect officiant for our big day! We chose her to officiate our micro wedding in WESTBANK. She took time to get to know us and write the perfect script. I loved her attention to detail and beautiful personality! I would recommend her to anyone looking to complete their perfect day! She’s amazing!

    Awesome, Personalized Ceremony

    Gina was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. She asked all the right questions, made sure we were on the same page with the type of ceremony I wanted, and was prepared and professional.
    She is the best value for what I paid. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top knotch officiant!

    Highly recommend

    I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Gina. She is incredibly nice and professional. We were struggling to find an officiant for our wedding and luckily we were referred to Gina. It was on very short notice but after speaking with her and answering a brief questionnaire for her she wrote the most beautiful vows for my wife and I. She was also extremely helpful with some very last minute wedding stuff for the bridal procession that we had not rehearsed for. It was the biggest blessing finding her for our wedding.

    Rivere Ceremonies's reply:

    Brandon,
    Thank you for these beautiful words and thank you for this 5-star review. I enjoyed working with you to create a beautiful ceremony and I loved helping you with the bridal procession. I hope you both have a lifetime of love and happiness.

    Mrs Nicole Halsey

    Ms Gina was awesome. So sweet. A joy to talk to. She took an interest in us as a couple and individuals. Getting to know us and writing vows that spoke what we wanted to say. I felt very much at ease and focused on my excitement.

    My small wedding was everything. Ms. Gina definitely gave our ceremony the emotional vibe we was going for. Her sweet words open the door for us to be vulnerable with our vows.

    Jonnisha,
    Thank you for this amazing review. I loved being a part of your beautiful, intimate wedding. My favorite part is when you exchanged rings with your children. Your vows were so heartfelt and beautiful. I hope you both have a lifetime of love and happiness.

    Gina is the perfect choice.

    After looking at a few officiants and then finding Gina it was an easy choice. She was very prompt on getting back to me and setting everything up, and her pricing was a huge draw. We really loved how she created a truly unique and special experience by using our own words and feelings. My wife and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone that is looking for an officiant that truly cares. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant.
