Absolutely amazing

We worked with Ramiro and he was amazing from the first time we talked to him to the day of the wedding. He created a beautiful ceremony and we received so many compliments! We wanted a spiritual bilingual ceremony and he delivered wonderfully!

Heartfelt and perfectly worded service

We booked our officiant 2 weeks before our wedding because one of us, cough cough (husband) forgot to book one (I only reminded him 234,984,106 times (not enough times apparently HAHAHA) so we needed a miracle!!!!!!! God delivered through The Officiants and gave us a literal miracle: Milagros aka Milly Blanco aka THE VERY BEST OFFICIANT EVERRRRRRR!!!!!! She literally painted the most BEAUTIFUL picture of exactly how our love story turned into a MARRIAGE and told it to our guests in such a way that brought me to tears. Immediately after the ceremony my now husband and i looked at each other and one of the first things we said was "WOW!!!!!!!! HOW DID SHE DO THAT?!?!?!?" We were in awe at how perfectly she was able to tell our story-it felt like she had known us for years! I felt like our ceremony was one of the most BEAUTIFULLY WORDED ceremonies I've ever heard. I could not have asked for a BETTER experience!!!!!!! And, do it in Spanish too!!!! I am pleased beyond WORDS. MILLY, i hope you truly understand how THANKFUL i am that we were so lucky to get you and how PERFECT you were for our wedding. You are truly AMAZING at what you do. So many people came up to me to compliment how IMPRESSED they were!!! With such little time to prepare, i cannot believe you were able to bring it all to life on our big day. After talking with you i was immediately comforted and felt you had it all under control!!!! For a bride that felt like I had so much to do in such little time, you TRULY made the experience a BEAUTIFUL one...and for that, you just can't put a price tag on it. THANK YOUUUUUUUU, AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!! God bless you guys for ALL you do!!!!!!!!!!!

Greatest officiant of all time (g.o.o.a. T)

First, I would like to publicly "Thank You" Ramiro Malagon for making our wedding ceremony so special and heartwarming. Thank you for accepting to be part of our celebration.

What can we say? Ramiro was an absolute professional who made the entire process so easy. We feel so blessed to have had Ramiro marry us on the night of our wedding. He took his time to explain in great detail on all the steps of making our marriage official. He perform the ceremony in both English and in Spanish for both of our families to understand. Which was AMAZING!!!! The service was truly an A+++ in our eyes. Ramiro was a true gentleman, and even a better officiant. I urge anybody looking for an officiant in South Florida, to hire Ramiro. A wedding will be the most special day in your life. 30 minutes can go as quick as a blink of an eye, and when he united us, we both can agree it was the most precious moment we will cherish forever.

Thank you Ramiro. Thank you for all that you have done for us.

Stay blessed and keep blessing!
