About
YOUR WEDDING. YOUR STORY. YOUR CEREMONY. No cookie-cutter scripts. I create a fully customized ceremony that reflects you as a couple—your personalities, beliefs, story, and vision. From elegant and traditional to fun, unconventional, Christian, non-religious, or somewhere in between, your ceremony should feel like YOU. Hi, I'm Paul. My goal is simple: create a ceremony that feels like you, means something to you, and leaves your guests saying "That was perfect for them." Whether you're planning a large traditional wedding, an intimate elopement, a backyard ceremony, a vow renewal, or something completely outside the box, I'll work with you to create a ceremony that feels personal, meaningful, and authentic. From our first conversation through the moment I pronounce you husband and wife, I'll guide you through the process so you can focus on enjoying your wedding instead of worrying about the ceremony. WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU WORK WITH ME I provide a hands-on, all-inclusive officiating experience so you don't have to worry about the details. - Initial in-person or Zoom consultation to get to know you as a couple. - Ongoing communication and support leading up to your wedding. - A fully custom-written ceremony based on your story, preferences, and beliefs. - Full review and final approval of your ceremony script. - Christian, spiritual, secular, or non-religious ceremonies. - Unity ceremonies including handfasting, sand pouring, candle lighting, and more. - In-person attendance at your rehearsal. - Early arrival on your wedding day. - Professional officiating of your ceremony. - Completion and signing of your marriage license. - Delivery of the marriage license to the County Clerk's Office. - Availability for photos before or after your ceremony. - Fully insured for your peace of mind. OPTIONAL PREMARITAL COUNSELING - INCLUDED AT NO ADDITIONAL COST 6-Week Premarital Counseling & Relationship Training Course. For couples who would like it, I include my six-week premarital program at no additional charge. It's designed to help you strengthen communication, understand one another better, and build a healthy foundation for married life. EXPERIENCE & CREDENTIALS I bring professional training, ministry experience, counseling experience, and a genuine love of working with couples to every ceremony. Ordained Chaplain — Christian Leaders Institute Licensed Wedding Officiant — Christian Leaders Institute Certified Wedding Officiant — Wedding MBA Member — International Association of Professional Wedding Officiants (IAPWO) Board Certified Christian Counselor — National Association of Christian Counselors SIMPLE, TRANSPARENT PRICING One simple, all-inclusive ceremony rate of $350 for all types of ceremonies, big or small, simple or complex.

Paul was an amazing officiant! He did an absolutely fantastic job and was a very important part of our day coming together. He was so professional and friendly. He was a pleasure to have at our wedding. He got along with our guests and our best man had a great time talking with him. He was very punctual and had great communication with us before and after the wedding. We had a themed wedding and Paul was happy to play a role in making it happen. He dressed up and wrote the ceremony speech to fit our theme. We are so glad we got Paul to be our officiant. He helped make our wedding unforgettable and we are so thankful to him.

Thank you so much, Liliana, for such a thoughtful review. It was truly an honor to officiate your and Josh’s medieval-themed wedding and to help bring your vision to life through the ceremony, script, and attire. I had a wonderful time celebrating with you, your families, and your guests, and I am grateful to have been part of such a unique and unforgettable day. May your marriage be filled with lasting love, joy, adventure, and many blessings in the years ahead.

I had the privilege of meeting Paul when I hired him for a business blessing and the experience was truly meaningful. From the moment he arrived, he brought warmth, professionalism, and a genuine sense of care that made the ceremony feel very special.
His words were thoughtful, heartfelt, and inspiring, creating an atmosphere of hope, and gratitude. He took the time to understand the significance of the occasion and made the blessing feel personal and memorable.
I am grateful for his guidance and kindness, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for an
officiant for a business blessing or any special ceremony. Thank you for your help with such a beautiful blessing!

Thank you so much, Diana, for your thoughtful and encouraging review. It has been a pleasure working with you and an honor to bless Francisco and Lupita’s restaurant last October. I truly appreciate the care you put into coordinating such a meaningful occasion, and I am grateful for the opportunity to return this Sunday to bless their second location. May God continue to bless Francisco and Lupita, their staff, their customers, both restaurants, and of course you, with peace, favor, and lasting success.

Tracie, thank you so much for your kind words—I truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience! It was such an honor to be part of your special day. Your ceremony in beautiful Hillcrest Park, with the gorgeous fountain flowing behind you, created such a peaceful and memorable setting—it really was something special. Moments like that are exactly why I love what I do. Wishing you and John a lifetime filled with love, joy, and continued blessings.

Paul was exceptional. He handled our unique, last-minute wedding wants and needs like a true professional. He felt like family, he was flexible, he followed through on everything he said he would. We hired him on very short notice and he was so understanding of what we were going through. Our special day would not have been as perfect as it was without him. Can't imagine any one else doing what he did for us. Honored to be married by Paul. We highly recommend him to everyone in-need of an officiant. He's the best.

Chris & Summer, thank you sincerely for sharing such a heartfelt review. Reading your words truly means more to me than you know. Being able to step in and support you during a last-minute, deeply personal wedding was an honor I don’t take lightly. Your trust, openness, and the circumstances surrounding your day made it especially meaningful, and I’m grateful I could be there to help create a ceremony that felt right for you. I’m humbled by your recommendation and honored to have been the one to officiate your marriage. Thank you for allowing me into such an important moment in your lives. Wishing you both many blessings to come!! Warmly, Paul Becker, Chaplain Elegant to Extreme Wedding Officiating
