    Your officiant search is over!

    Lili was so great to work with! She spent so much time interviewing us and sending various options so our wedding ceremony was absolutely perfect. You can tell how much she cares and I would highly recommend working with her if you need an officiant for your upcoming nuptials.

    Lili is fantastic!

    Lili was absolutely terrific. She was easy to work with and was available whenever we needed to ask her questions. Many of our guests were impressed at her professionalism and what she said throughout our ceremony. They even asked how long we had known Lili because she made our ceremony so personal and kept things light and happy. She made the entire experience stress free and easy. We would absolutely recommend her! Having her perform our ceremony was one of the best parts of our wedding!

    Weddings of Heart's reply:

    Thank you Tricia! It was truly an honor to officiate on your day. I wish you both the very best for a beautiful life together.
    Warmly, Lili

    Officiant for wedding

    Lili was absolutely fantastic. She was so helpful during the planning process and explained exactly how everything would go. We were very nervous but she made the ceremony so smooth and easy for us. Everyone loved how sweet the ceremony was. 100% recommend Lili for any wedding!

    Dear Mariah,

    Professional, personalized, timely

    Lili is a pleasure to work with. She has the elegance, kind demeanour, and expressive voice that were were looking for. She worked on a very tight deadline with us, providing personalized guidance on script options and examples of readings. We met over two 60-minute meetings and she promptly responded to our emails.

    Lili was wonderful! She was responsive and flexible when preparing the ceremony, and was professional, well-spoken, and warm the day of.

    Lili worked with us very collaboratively to develop a script for the ceremony, and came up with great options for us to choose from to shape the ceremony we wanted! She was also very on top of logistics, and made sure we had our wedding license all set and had a clear plan for all logistics before the day of. We were thrilled with the ceremony and with her as an officiant! We highly recommend Lili at Weddings of Heart.

    Felt the love

    Dr. Lili Freitas won us over with her warmth and positive attitude. When we interviewed possible officiants for our wedding we wanted someone who would work with us to figure out what we wanted, because both my husband and I were raised Roman Catholic but are not practicing Catholics as adults. We also chose not to get married in a church but wanted a ceremony that had some aspects of religion, traditions from my filipino culture and overall a ceremony filled with an exuberance of love. Dr. Lili did just that with the ceremony she put together for us. The ceremony ended up very beautiful and we received so many compliments from guests saying that they felt all the love and even had a lot of happy tears (including my husband who is the most stoic man I know). Dr. Lili was a pleasure to work with.

    Weddings of Heart's reply:

    Dear Charmaine,
    Thank you for your kind words! It was truly a joyful day.
    Blessings to you both for your lives ahead!
    Warmest wishes,
    Lili

    Lili made our wedding ceremony magical!

    Lili made our wedding ceremony magical! We booked with Lili back in 2020 and she was flexible and kind when we had to move our wedding due to COVID. With no problems (or cost) whatsoever with the move she officiated our wedding on 8/28/21.

    Our friends and family all commented that they thought she was a grandmother, or a long time family friend, because our ceremony felt so personal. Lili was totally a pro - she had the whole process figured out and it made it easy and not stressful for us to walk through the process. She even asked for our preference on what she should wear.

    She gave us a ton of material to work from and then we went through an editing process where we picked out pieces from her scripts that we liked to form our final ceremony. This allowed us exactly the right amount of customization and made it so that we were able to "write" what made sense for us without having to write anything from scratch.

    We also didn't want to write super long custom vows like we had heard at friends weddings... (the whole here is our entire relationship story etc), so we asked for some partially prewritten vows and customized those and then read them ourselves and it was exactly the right amount of personal that we wanted to share out loud with friends and family. There were plenty of tears shed!

    I would 100% recommend working with Lili on your ceremony! She helped us created something so meaningful (and not religious) especially since we didn't have that perfect friend to officiate. Thank you Lili!!

    Weddings of Heart's reply:

    Thank you so much for such a kind review. It really was a beautiful day even in the midst of the warmth of the day. I trust you had a beautiful party afterwards. Many blessings for a beautiful life ahead. Warmly, Lili

    Above and beyond

    Working with Reverend Lili Freitas was the best part of our wedding. She made our ceremony so meaningful. Reverend Lili is pleasant to work with, intelligent, personable and really provided for a personalized wedding preparation experience. Our family and friends all indicated that the ceremony was so heartfelt because of Reverend Lili. Her expertise and experience just shines. My husband and I could not recommend Lili highly enough. If we could do it all again, we would without a doubt, work with Lili and Weddings of Heart. Thank you, Lili, for making our wedding truly special and memorable!!

    Just Perfect!

    We can't reccomend Dr. Lili Freitas enough! She planned our ceremony with all of our wishes in mind and every aspect was just perfect. Dr. Freitas was so kind and warm we were drawn to her from our very first meeting. She executed our ceremony with such warmth and made us feel at ease the entire time. We had so many people ask us afterward where we found such an awesome wedding officiant! Thank you Dr. Freitas for contributing to our beautiful day and making it so special!

    We are still in the planning stage, but Lilli has been wonderful to work with in making the arrangements.

    We are still in the stages of finalizing our plans, but Lilli has been most helpful. She is genuinely interested in our thoughts and wishes for the ceremony.

    Lili was so in tune with our needs and got to know us quickly and efficiently. Her words were beautiful and the perfect officiant for our union.

    It was truly and honor to officiate on your day! Doing your ceremony in a circle was truly unique. I wish you both a joyous life together!

    Beautiful ceremony!

    We just got married up in Napa and feel so lucky to have had Lili officiate. She is warm, responsive, and set just the right tone for our big day. A handful of people approached us at dinner to say how fabulous the officiant was-and we totally agree! Thank you for so thoughtfully planning and executing our ceremony!

    Professional, warm and personal, simply great

    Lili was amazing, both very warm and professional, we got so excited and emotional that we basically forgot how to speak but she did put us in ease. The ceremony was very beautiful and she really tried to learn more about me and my bride so it was very personal and touching as well.

    Thank you reverend Lili for being a part of our most special day!! We wish you all the best and keep in touch :)

    Our Perfect Wedding Ceremony

    Working with Lili was such a wonderful experience. She was so caring and thoughtful through the entire process. She took time to get to know us and asked us so many thoughtful questions in order to write the perfect ceremony for us. We really enjoyed talking with her beforehand and collaborating on the ceremony. The ceremony was absolutely perfect. She is truly a pro! It was beautiful, meaningful, and had the aspects of traditional ceremonies we wanted and also had our own touch. Our guests were very impressed with the ceremony and how touching it was. We felt like we were in such good hands throughout the process because Lili really knows what she is doing and gave excellent advice and suggestions. She even asked us what we wanted her to wear to the ceremony. We couldn't have asked for more from an officiant. She took the stress out of planning our wedding ceremony and helped make it such a perfect experience.

    Lili is a wonder to work with. I loved how she gave my groom and I options for our ceremony and really got to know us to make it really personal. Though our ceremony was all planned out what wasn’t was my 2 yr old son running around the whole time. As well as my 2 yr old niece walking up during the ceremony and asking Lili “are you done talking yet?” She could not have handled it more gracefully and have a good chuckle and continued on. She took anything those two threw her way and continued on without skipping a beat. Everyone asked how we knew her as she wasn’t able to describe us as a couple perfectly.

    Lili really made our ceremony special, and I'm so grateful to her for that. At first we were thinking about asking a friend to officiate our wedding but I'm so glad we ended up finding Lili, because she provided so much more than just the formalities on the day of. When we first got in touch, Lili set up a phone call so she could get to know us better and understand what we wanted the ceremony to look like. After that, she sent us pages and pages of options to choose from, for readings, vows, and the ceremony layout. She also gave us sections to write ourselves which she incorporated into the ceremony beautifully. We had a final meeting a few weeks out to nail down all the logistics, and Lili had every question figured out ahead of time. She's clearly very organized and has a lot of experience, but it also feels like she's there for you 100%.

    She arrived early to our ceremony, checked in with us to see how we were doing, met our families, and brought copies of the readings and vows. She was an absolute pro - she even stepped away after the pronouncement so she wouldn't be in the background of the first kiss photos, something I wouldn't have even thought of until after. And we had a lot of family and friends who never cry with tears in their eyes after the ceremony, telling us how beautiful it was. I'm so grateful to Lili for helping us put together a really memorable ceremony.

    Lili was ah-mazing! From start to finish, she did everything to make us feel comfortable and involved. Extremely professional, and responsive, maybe even more than us (sorry Lili!). We new after a few minutes of speaking with her that she was the one we wanted to marry us. Lili is such a warm soul who is very caring and thoughtful. She even incorporated our daughter into our ceremony which meant a lot to us. Our guests loved her just as much as we did. Any couple would be lucky to have Lili as their officiant. Thank you again!

    My husband and I were thrilled to have Lili as the officiant on our wedding day. While we never met in person until the day of the wedding, we both felt an instant connection with her while using face time. She wrote a ceremony that was perfect for us and all of our guests loved her. Lili was always very attentive to us and was willing to make changes to anything we wanted. She gave us reasonable timelines to meet in order to make sure we had our vows written ahead of time. She was beyond just an officiant, she takes the whole wedding day into account. I would absolutely recommend to her anybody looking for an officiant in the bay area.

    Lili was everything we were looking for in an officiant for our wedding. She was so thoughtful, and she got to know us during the months leading up to our wedding. She was also very responsive and great at communicating our ceremony drafts to us. In addition to creating our perfect ceremony (which included comments from our family and friends, to whom she reached out), she was also a calming force for me on our wedding day. She could tell that I was very nervous, and she helped me meditate and calm myself just a few minutes before the ceremony, which really helped me to be able to take everything in once I got up to the alter. We definitely plan to stay in touch with her, and we can't recommend her more highly.

    Dear Michelle and Alex, it was truly a pleasure working with you and thank you for your kind words. I definitely want to stay in touch. Warmest regards, Lili

    We so appreciated Lili's calm and focus as she helped us think about what kind of ceremony to have for our wedding. She got to know us and crafted a beautiful blessing to begin the new chapter in our lives. Her intention and warmth made our day very special. We are so happy and grateful that she was available for our small gathering. I highly recommend her services.
