About
Thank you for viewing my bio. If you are reading this your probably are in love - Congratulations ❤️❤️!
This time should be special and stressfree.
Please only inquiry if you are seriously requesting services - I limit spots to only 100 couples a year.
I am working on building my FASH profile and migrating reviews to from the Thumbtack, Wedding Chicks and Google Platforms.
Reading my reviews should give you some insight of my key strengths. I am often hired for those qualities, in addition to my fair pricing and dependablity.
I specializd in smaller weddings (100 or less) and elopements. I'm licensed, background checked and trustworthy. 20 years background in deploying business operations support and strategy within Financial, Real Estate, Technology and Non-Profit industries.
I love people, their passion and life in general. I live a healthy and active lifestyle, attempting to get outdoors daily - even in August.
Thank you for considering me and it would be a privilege to work for you and with you on your special day!
Might sound cheesy but what I enjoy most about my job, is everything. I love how each couple is completely different but they all have that look of love on their faces. I love how unique and different each love story is. I love the realness. The opportunity to help couples move towards unity in a low stress and loving manner. It's rewarding and puts the smile on my face.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My first step, if you would like to secure my services, I create a calender invitation confirming time, date and location that will be emailed to you and my admin. I reserve 2 hours, to allow flexiblity in you ceremony starting time. 90% of ceremonies start late and 0% early.
Second, I create an invoice with agreed upon terms and conditions that will be emailed to you. Deposit of $50 is required to secure the 2 hour time slot. Once deposit is received, I will email you a planning questionnaire that walks you through a typical wedding and the various elements.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I officiated over 100 weddings each year. I learn each and every day, always striving to better myself, my processes and the delivery of services. I keep up with the industry through various forums and resources. I am in a network of officiants where we share best practices, creative solutions and newest wedding industry trends. I market and manage a team of 4 wedding officants in the Central Texas area which allows me the opportunity to better match couples to a best officiant, even if it doesn't happen to be me.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
Standardly my price is $175 within the Central Texas area. Outside this area and for peak times, I charge an additional fee ($25).
How did you get started in this business?
That's a story I like to share the details one on one. Let's just say, I knew it was what I was meant to do.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I work with all kinds of couples. It's one of my favorite things.
The majority of the couples I work with find me because of my reviews or someone refers them to me.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
When asked who was my favorite couple - I always say, the next one. I tend to fall in love with my couples.
Last nights couple had a large back yard wedding in the pouring rain but they took it like champs. Family was amazing. Their hospitally ensuring that each guest was served a hot plate of home cooked Mexican Food and even packed several extra to go. Very thoughtful!
The night before was a very small intimate wedding at a venue with a private chef. This couple had a very personalized ceremony with top notch decorations. Very classy and elegant.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Trust the pro and only hire a pro you can trust...
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
Ensure the wedding officiant services that location, available that day/time. Asked about hidden cost (cermony's that start late, run over in time, farther way, etc).
