Vibrant and warmhearted Officiant Heidi, creates authentic ceremonies filled with romance, love, and laughter. She will capture your personal love story. Heidi has married over 1200 people since 2016.

Heidi is an absolute gem of a human. She came recommended to us by our wedding photographers and was the perfect officiant for our LA elopement. We felt a connection to her from the very beginning and she made us feel like family. Over the course of several months, we worked together on crafting our personalized ceremony that included a hand fasting and tarot card pull. We then completed a questionnaire that was used to tell our love story. I was genuinely taken aback at the heartfelt way our answers wove together to tell the story of our relationship. I should also mention how meaningful it was that our final tarot card that we pulled was The Heirophant - literally the marriage card. It made our ceremony feel even more magical! We are so grateful for her involvement in making our day perfect — and we are glad to call her Aunt Heidi!

What I love about being an officiant is getting to know my couples. What their hopes and dreams are as individuals and as a couple. What they like about each other, what their favorite things they like to do together, and what makes them a couple. Putting all those things together in a memorable wedding ceremony is my passion. My ceremonies are always as individual as my couples. Every relationship is special and unique and I enjoy creating and sharing how you both got to this day, this moment. Your Story. The Best Love Story. Ever.

Working with Renne was just lovely. From our first meeting, she was so warm, down to earth and easy to talk to. She immediately had us feeling at ease with her genuine care. Our wedding ceremony was a perfect story of us and our love story. She managed to capture the uniqueness and beauty of our relationship and our loved ones were in tears. It set the stage for such a meaningful celebration. She printed out our ceremony and vows and we keep them in our wedding box. We open it every year and read it together as a way of reflecting on our love and remembering our values and promises we made to each other. We are so grateful for the way Renne made our wedding ceremony perfect for us and how she is still a fixture in our story a little each year.

Born in Australia, lived in Scotland, I've now been in the US for 10 years, I presided over my first wedding in 2016. Being asked by two of my oldest friends changed my life forever. But I was crazy nervous. That first ceremony elicited something inside of me I never expected. I LOVED, love! I had a feeling of pride and community I'd never experienced before. More and more friends asked me to officiate their weddings over the years until I finally said "frick it, maybe this is my thing." Becoming an officiant has been one of the most rewarding things I've done, experiencing your marriage ceremony with you is now something I look forward to.

I can't recommend Sam Does Weddings enough!! He was the perfect officiant: kind, humorous, patient and most of all understanding! From the moment we chose Sam, he was always available and had genuine care and consideration for our relationship. He took the time to truly understand us as a couple and beautifully captured the essence of our relationship in the ceremony. We wanted a short, unplugged ceremony with the perfect balance of humor and heartfelt moments, and Sam delivered exactly that. He crafted a service that actually felt like us - not generic or overly formal, but filled with love and authenticity that resonated with everyone present. Throughout the planning process, Sam was incredibly helpful and responsive. He gently guided us to ensure we were hitting all the right notes while still giving us the flexibility to make the ceremony our own. He shaped and refined our own telling of our story into something truly special. I still get giddy thinking about when my husband and I read our ceremony script over a glass of wine at dinner! Though what truly sets Sam apart is his attention to detail and thoughtful touches - he even came prepped with a sneaky shot of our favorite drink for both of us right after we said "I do" which was MUCH needed (iykyk) If you're looking for an officiant who will take the time to understand your unique story, respect your wishes, and create a ceremony that perfectly reflects who you are as a couple, Sam is your person. We are, and always will be forever grateful to him :)

Hawthorne, CA

Hi, I'm Lilian Argueta—a proud Guatemalan American, native Angelina, and the heart behind L+A Union Ceremonies. I’ve always believed in the power of human connection and the importance of honoring it with authenticity, care, and soul. I’ve been a certified officiant since 2017, and my path to this work has been anything but traditional—in the best way. L+A stands for Luz y Amor—light and love in Spanish. It’s more than a name; it’s a belief system. I believe we are all energy, all light…and when two people come together in love, something truly magical happens. That magic deserves to be witnessed and celebrated with intention & creativity.

I am thrilled to highly recommend the exceptional wedding officiant, Lilian Argueta, who made my daughter's destination wedding in Cancun in April 2024 an unforgettable and magical experience. From the moment we engaged her services, it was clear that she was dedicated to creating a personalized and meaningful ceremony that truly reflected the love story of the bride and groom. Her thorough preparation was evident in the pre-event meetings where she took the time to get to know the couple, understand their relationship, and gather details that would make the ceremony truly special. Her attention to detail and genuine interest in their story shone through in every aspect of the ceremony. During the ceremony, her excellent presentation skills, heartfelt words, and warm demeanor captivated everyone present, perfectly capturing the love and magic between the bride and groom. The way she tailored the ceremony to include a lightning round of chess at the end of the vows, symbolizing how the couple met, was a brilliant and iconic touch that truly made the ceremony unique and personalized. I cannot recommend her enough for any couple looking for a wedding officiant who goes above and beyond to create a ceremony that is heartfelt, meaningful, and memorable. Her professionalism, creativity, and genuine care for her clients make her an outstanding choice for any couple looking to start their journey together in a truly special way.

Hi, I’m Naomi—a multi-award-winning wedding officiant known for ceremonies that feel like soul nourishment. I’m part marriage midwife, part mythic storyteller, part fierce loving mama bear. I help couples stay grounded, connected, and deeply seen on one of the most important days of their lives. Rooted in years of cross cultural study, I create inclusive, wildly meaningful, sacred but non-religious ceremonies. Guests swear I must be a family member or close friend. I’m a reverend gone rogue—innovating modern rites with heart, humor, and holy intention, and creating ceremonies that feel like home to you—and unforgettable to everyone else.

Choosing Naomi as our officiant was one of the very best decisions we made for our wedding. She embodies so much warmth and wisdom and has an extremely thoughtful process of getting to know her couples. We wanted our ceremony to be the most special part of our day, and while we trusted her from the beginning, we couldn’t have imagined a ceremony as beautiful as the one she delivered. We wanted to really feel the transition, the peace, the profoundness of the moment, and Naomi gave us this and so much more. Every word was meaningful and deeply personal, not a single one wasted. She slowed everything down. She helped us and our guests all be still and truly present and to notice even the tiniest details that were made not so tiny by the awareness: the trees, the smell of the cool forest air, the crow flying overhead. She was a grounding presence that steadied us in a moment that is often nerve-ridden and blurry for many people. Friends and family all commented on how it was the most beautiful ceremony they had ever been to. One friend even said that he had never been to a wedding where the ceremony was the best part until ours. If you are looking for an officiant who can truly see you and your partner, someone who is capable of honoring your story and your dreams, someone to anchor you in a whirlwind moment while acknowledging how once in a lifetime it is, then run don’t walk to connect with Naomi. You will be so glad you did.

I Do X Two

I love working with couples to write a ceremony that is authentic to their love story and with all the details they envision. I've officiated estate-sized wine country weddings and those at the Ritz; to ceremonies in art galleries and country clubs, to shoreline and backyard elopements, and vow renewals at a family picnic or a restaurant--each one just as special as the other.

I just had my wedding on July 5th and used I Do X Two’s services, with Saundra as our officiant. From the beginning, she took extensive time and care to craft a personalized ceremony that reflected both me and my now-husband perfectly. Saundra met with us beforehand to hear our love story and get to know us both individually and as a couple. She made sure our voices were heard and that our wishes for the ceremony were thoughtfully incorporated. I consider myself spiritual but not religious, while my husband was raised in a religious family and has his own way of practicing it. Saundra reassured us that despite our differences, she would be able to blend both of our beliefs into a ceremony that honored us equally—and she absolutely delivered. My husband also shared some of his concerns with Saundra, including potential areas of conflict, and she responded with understanding and grace, sharing how she’s helped other couples navigate similar situations. When the big day arrived, Saundra was incredible. She led the ceremony with such beauty, calm, and confidence—it flowed seamlessly. She was organized, warm, and extremely helpful throughout the entire process. She even offered to print our vows on the most gorgeous cardstock and supported us with the ceremony’s flow to ensure everything went perfectly. After the ceremony, Saundra took care of our marriage license, ensuring everything was completed and submitted properly. Our guests and both of our families couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful the ceremony was and how wonderful Saundra made it feel. All this to say: choose I Do X Two. You’ll have a stunning ceremony, guests who are moved and impressed, and hearts that are full! Thank you so much Saundra!
