About

For over 30 years Rev. Lindbeck has been performing interfaith, same-faith, non-religious, multi-cultural, civil and spiritual ceremonies along the California Central Coast. She has performed over 900 ceremonies and is considered one of the most personal ministers in her profession. She loves working with people of all walks of life and every belief system.

To create your personal and fullly customized ceremony that is so suited to you, it wouldn't fit any other couple, she meets with you for three to four consultations to come to know you as completely as she can. She brings out who you truly are as an individual and who you are for each other as a couple. She talks with you about your families, your friends, your dreams and your future. If there are any delicate issues that would or could impact your wedding day, she makes sure she is informed and is skilled at handling them successfully on your big day. Her sensitivity and responsibility strike a trustworthy balance you can rely on without question.

She provides for you a wedding packet containing information and ideas on ceremony, so many you can't use them all, sample vows, ring vows, how to obtain your license, premaritial information, and everything you need to get started.

If you want to write your own vows, copy and paste, or simple choose one, she helps you with them until you are confident and excited about them. In concert with your ideas, she creates your ceremony as your personal celebration to make it an extraordinary experience for you, your family and your friends, you'll treasure for a lifetime.

She offers a non-obligatory interview to see if the three of you would work well together. To learn more about her, you may visit her website at www.weddingsantabarbara.com. She is also commented about on the Santa Barbara Wedding Guide and Yelp. She has countless references from her brides who have come from all over the world as well as endorsements from the professionals she works with to make your day seamless and beautiful beyond your expectations.

This work is her life's purpose and her passion is to leave the light of eternal love in your life and your marriage.

Absolutely Amazing! 5 Stars!!

We were blown away by Miriam’s ceremony and so were our guests. The ultimate compliment being multiple people asking how, and for how long, we’ve known her. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, the intricacies of our relationship and different aspects of our wedding to provide a personal, genuine and engaging ceremony. We couldn’t be happier! Thank you Miriam!!

A Truly Unique and Personalized Ceremony

Miriam went above and beyond her role as officiant for our wedding. She became a dear friend and mentor throughout the process.

The ceremony was everything we imagined and more. Miriam's words were eloquent, meaningful, and completely personalized to us as a couple. Many guests and family members came up to us after the ceremony asking if she was a family member, based on how well she seemed to know us. Her voice is calming and sincere, which kept us grounded and present during the ceremony.

Our premarital sessions with Miriam reminded us about what is most important during the wedding planning process. They brought us even closer as a couple, and so close to Miriam that it only felt natural to invite her to the rehearsal dinner and wedding, as our guest! We will always cherish our time with Miriam and highly recommend her services to any couple looking for a deeper, more meaningful ceremony. You are in for a real treat if you decide to work with Miriam!

Thoughtful, experienced, and all around awesome!

In the months leading up to our wedding, Miriam quickly went from officiant to dear friend. From our first meeting, it was obvious that she puts so much thought and time into her ceremonies, which is exactly what we were looking for! Over a fun and relaxed process, we had several meetings to discuss our relationship, friends, family, and anything else significant in our lives. She would even invite our dog to meetings, and would be ready with an assortment of amazing treats for her! After thoroughly getting to know us (dog included), Miriam crafted the most beautiful and heartfelt ceremony that was more than we could have hoped for. Her words managed to be eloquent and deep, while still fitting the mass appeal of a wedding (we had around 150 guests). Also, Miriam has a calmness and professionalism that reflects her extensive experience in countless ceremonies. Throughout the craziness of the wedding weekend, we could always look to her for both directions and words of wisdom, which was such a blessing. It is hard to explain how grateful we are for Miriam, and could not imagine a more wonderful and perfect officiant for anyone's big day!
