Introduction: The uncertainty created by Covid-19 has made the lives of wedding couples more difficult. It seems that maybe the worst of it is behind us and many couples are now ready to move forward and book their big celebration to include family & friends. In addition to an officiant, you'll need to obtain your marriage license from a County Clerk's office. While each California county office may be handling the business of issuing marriage licenses a tad differently, the great thing is that all California counties honor each other's marriage certificates, regardless of which California county you live in. Would be happy to schedule a call to talk about what you're looking for in an officiant/celebrant! ____________________________ Message below prior to Covid-19....Since my business was established, I've consistently received wonderful newlywed reviews that have earned me WeddingWire's "Couple's Choice Awards" and Thumbtack's "Top Pro" awards year after year. I love what I do and equally the opportunity to be of service!! As an officiant/celebrant, I'm proud of the fact that I work with couples to create a unique ceremony specific to each couple's love story. If you're looking to hire a wedding planner/coordinator, I began planning corporate events decades ago; so you have in me an experienced professional who is also a certified wedding planner. The Bay Area is a great place to be married; I've officiated or coordinated weddings in a variety of different Bay Area venues, among them: San Francisco City Hall, the Ritz Carlton SF and Half Moon Bay, Concannon Vineyards, Kohl Mansion, Brazilian Room, Hakone Gardens and Boundary Oaks Country Club just to name a few. Give me a call, text or email so we can talk about your Big Day!!

We reached out to Saundra last minute to officiate our wedding, and she was the best at helping out from everything between deciding on location in SF, write the most lovely speech incorporating our personal stories and making the day feel special and personal. While we've only known Saundra for a few weeks, she made the ceremony feel so personal and intimate, and she truly has the best energy and warmth that you'd want on your wedding day! Much love from Anne-Sofie and David.

Saundra was our day-of coordinator and she went above and beyond our expectations. Our wedding event was in two locations that were 30 minutes apart. Saundra was able to ensure all vendors arrive/setup promptly at both location and helped guide guests when questions arise. @Saundra, we want to really thank you for allowing us to enjoy every moment of our special days with our guests worry free!

Details: 51 - 100 guests • Venue • Florist • Musician • Photographer

My husband and I got married this past July and hired Saundra as our wedding day of coordinator. She was truly great to work with! She made sure to accommodate all of our requests, and gave us many useful tips throughout the process. My husband and I are truly grateful for everything she has done for us!

Saundra and Leonor were absolute superheroes on our big day; we really could not have done it without them. Saundra gives each wedding a personal touch, and is flexible to fulfill your needs before and on the wedding day. Her attention to detail and generosity has been so appreciated in the midst of last minute details and decisions; we are thankful that we could enjoy our ceremony and reception without any worries about timeline, decorations, vendor management, and guest care. Saundra did an excellent job balancing her role in situations where other facility coordinators might have tried to take more executive control, was nice enough to let me borrow her personal dress bag for my second wedding dress, and was always a smiley, familiar face that I could count on throughout the day. Our guests described our wedding as "flawless", "seamless", and "so much fun!". Thanks again, Saundra!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I factor in commute time to your wedding venue and whether or not you need me for rehearsal. To provide you a quote means I need to know: your wedding date (to check for availability), time of your ceremony (even if just an estimate), city where you're wedding will be held so I can factor in commute time to and from. As a military brat (USAF), I offer a military discount as a "thank you" to active duty personnel.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Start with a complimentary consultation--via Google meets or Zoom (due to CoVid) prior consults included in-person option too.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Served as an Alameda County Deputy Marriage Commissioner, I’m also a Certified Wedding Planner, Graduate Cal State East Bay Wedding Certification Program, 2015.
