Introduction: I service California and have recently been featured in Forbes, Bloomberg Law, The Sacramento News Observer and on iHeart Radio. I enjoy helping couples say “I do.” I allow you to be as creative as you like, while staying within officiant guidelines. I have officiated over 300 marriages since becoming ordained in January since 2020. I take pride in my work and have also trained over 600 ministers how to conduct the perfect ceremony under the Efficient Officiant Workshop. I also specialize in baptisms, vow renewal, pet memorials and I welcome the LGBTQ community. I am also a Notary Public.

Raquel is the best. She is so upbeat and spreads her positive attitude everywhere. She made our special day even more special. Beforehand, she walked us through what we would be doing and asked us if there was anything special we wanted to do. I don't have the words to explain what a wonderful, kind and exceptional person she is.

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 • Officiant does not need to be present at rehearsal

Raquel was great, gave great advice. Really spoke with passion and wanted me to succeed. I’m so ready to marry my first couple because of Raquel!

Raquel is such an amazing officiant. She is patient and listens to what you want and how you want things. I definitely recommend her to everyone. She made me feel more calm when I was nervous on stage. She is absolutely the sweetest!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is based on the current rate in my area. Attending wedding rehearsal and lodging for travel over 50 miles is not included in the quote.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Meeting with the couple over the phone or in person before the ceremony is very important. I like to get to know them and their personalities so that I have an idea how best to meet their needs. I also like to give them a chance to share any information they have so that I can be clear on their expectations and deliver exactly what is requested.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have married over 100 couples and have personal experience in working with officiants and wedding planning. Although I do not advertise for wedding planning, I do allow for questions and ideas to be shared for feedback if asked. I also have trained over 30 weddings officiants on how to properly conduct a ceremony.
