About
I have been an Ordained Minister since 2003.
My ministry is non-denominational and I specialize in officiating marriage ceremonies. My goal is to make your ceremony a memorable one and to be a part of your beautiful event. I provide you with a "Menu" book of different ceremonies for you to choose from. It's your special day and the ceremony should be your way! I am available for your rehearsal, if needed. I am bilingual, English/Spanish. I travel 40 miles at no extra charge. Congratulations and I look for to working with the both of you! Thank you!

Love working with people I know so when I found Brenda listed under notary I was so excited. She responded to my initial request within minutes and from start to finish she was just so easy to work with. Punctual, friendly, and completely professional. Could not be happier

Brenda was a pleasure to work with! She showed great flexibility, professionalism, and had much patience given our complicated situation. We will definitely return to her if we ever need another notary and will recommend her to family and friends.

I highly recommend this mobile notary service! She was punctual, professional, and extremely accommodating throughout the entire process. She arrived on time, explained everything clearly, and made the signing process smooth and stress-free. Her attention to detail and friendly demeanor were greatly appreciated. If you’re looking for a reliable and professional mobile notary, I would not hesitate to use her services again. Thank you for the excellent service!

Brenda was great. She responded within minutes of my request and was available to come to my home that same afternoon. She was professional in both work and appearance and had completed the job in no time. Brenda, it was a pleasure!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My Base fee includes our correspondence and or meeting, "Menu" selection of the ceremony, and Day of ceremony. I will arrive thirty to forty fives minutes before the ceremony to confer with you and have your two witnesses sign the marriage license.
If a Rehearsal is needed, I charge extra for attendance.
A Bilingual ceremony is an additional charge. Cobro mas por una ceremonia de matrimonio bilingue.
Traveling over 40 miles I will charge an extra fee.
We will discuss your actual fee when we speak regarding your ceremony.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
During our initial meeting, in person or by phone, we will discuss your needs and desires for your special day. I will provide you with a selection of ceremonies for you to choose from. You may write your own Vows or You may add special parts to your ceremony, such as, Candle Lighting, Sand Ceremony, Dove Release, and a special reading by a family member or friend, just to name a few.
Depending on your ceremony location, we will discuss and agree upon a fee. I also charge a few for attending your rehearsal. Most venues and Wedding Coordinators insist on having a rehearsal. In my opinion, all wedding ceremonies need a rehearsal. The ceremony will run smoother and look beautifully organized, if you have a rehearsal. Please don't skip the rehearsal just to save money. Your Wedding Event begins with the Marriage Ceremony.
