Love is powerful, and I believe a meaningful wedding ceremony can leave a lasting impact on you, your family, and your friends. As a bilingual (Spanish-English) wedding officiant with over 13 years of experience, I specialize in creating personalized ceremonies that reflect each couple’s unique story and preferences.
My affordable $350 fee (flexible when needed) includes:
- Consultations to get to know you and plan your ceremony
- A fully customized ceremony format
- Travel to and from your wedding
- Filing your marriage license at the county courthouse the next business day
I’m also a proud Veteran and offer a 10% discount for military and veterans. If you’re looking for a warm, thoughtful, and professional officiant, I’d be honored to help make your day unforgettable.

We had the pleasure of having Bill Martinez as our officiant for our wedding ceremony in Spanish, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! He was punctual, kind, and incredibly patient, making sure everything flowed smoothly. His warm and professional demeanor helped create a beautiful and meaningful ceremony that we and our guests truly loved. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable officiant!

Bill responded promptly to my inquire and scheduled a call to make sure we had the same ideas or he offered what we wanted for our ceremony. He took notes about how we met and questions about our relationship story. We look forward to working with him on our wedding day, scheduled in October this year.

Bill was great! We hired him 30 days prior to our wedding as our officiant last minute could no longer make it and he was more than happy to step in. Bill was personable and professional. He got to know my husband and I ahead of time and used that to personalize our ceremony. We’re very thankful to have found him!

Bill did an amazing job since we first contacted him. He was very communicative since day 1, and continued with followups leading up to the wedding. At the wedding he was very kind and friendly, and truly had a great charisma. It was amazing having you Bill as our weddingofficiant, and I will highly recommend!

Bill is the best officiant ever! It was so meaningful to us, our family and friends to have him host our ceremony. Even with such a short notice about our wedding (2 weeks before the ceremony) he got to know us, and he was able to customize our ceremony to fit our style and comfort levels. Our warmest thanks to Bill!
