Mariela officiated our wedding and did an outstanding job. We had another officiant cancel last minute on us but Mariela saved us- within a week, she crafted a beautiful and personal speech for us, confirmed her attendance, and walked us through the process. She was organized and many of our guests complimented us on her speech afterwards. Mariela just radiates kindness and we’d recommend her to anyone!

Details: Wedding • Non-denominational (mentions God) • 20 guests or fewer • Help writing vows will not be needed • English • Officiant will not be needed at the rehearsal

Mariela did a wonderful job officiating our wedding. I reached out 2 weeks before the big day, and she had no problem handling everything despite the short notice. She offers a beautiful package of reading/ceremonies to choose from. Mariela is very professional, and is extremely easy to talk to ( I think our initial consultation was over an hour). I definitely recommend using her for your special day

Even though I didn’t move forward with the sufficient only because I had a family friend do it, she is wonderful. Just by speaking with her and emailing back-and-forth my plans and arrangements was impressive. She was also very flexible with my schedule, knowing she would be back up for me, she was still understanding. I Adore her professionalism and insight to being the best Officiant and anyone would be lucky to have her….

I am a trained actor of 28 years, as well as an early childhood educator. I use the skills I've learned from acting and teaching to perform the perfect ceremony for my couples!
