Great Officiant!

Cris was great to work with, from our first zoom interview until the ceremony. During the initial interview, he was extremely organized and answered every question we had and we felt very secure in our choice of having him as our officiant. The ceremony script that he sent to us was perfect as is, but he was willing to make any changes that we may have needed. He was very clear that it was our wedding and he wanted us to have the ceremony that we wanted. Highly recommended!

Great officiant!

Cris was great! He gave a very professional and heartfelt ceremony, was on the ball about marriage license and music for the ceremony, and was very responsive to our questions as well as changes we had to make to the ceremony.

October wedding with Cris

Cris is the best of the best! From the time you hire him to the time you have your wedding he works so hard to meet with you and personalize your ceremony to get it exactly how you want it! He has been doing this for a long time and it shows! He is very knowledgeable and provides religious and non-religious options for your ceremony. He works hard to get to know you as a couple and works that into the ceremony. He is wonderful to work with, has a great sense of humor and is reliable. Look no further and book him ASAP!
