Our ceremony was the perfect balance of fun and romantic, it truly felt like 'us.' If you are looking for an officiant who can capture your love story while keeping your guests engaged and smiling, look no further. Thank you for making our special day unforgettable. Thank you very much to our offician Al-x Buenaflor at Heisler Gazebo park. It was amazing.

Alan and his team are THE BEST. We had so many changes to our wedding plans but the one thing we…read moreknew wouldn't disappoint us was working with Great Officiants. From the jump, Alan and his team were incredibly nice, honest, responsive, and excellent at explaining the whole process to us. Wedding planning was a roller coaster ride and they're here for all of it. Alan was our officiant and he made our whole ceremony so light yet romantic. It was added humor and my husband and I appreciated all of it.

Where do I start- I didn't expect such a beautiful experience from a 1 Hour Marriage chapel…read more(nothing to do with the chapel business it just seemed like a quick come and go vibe but it was nothing like that)! Yenmin was absolutely AMAZING! I did not expect to cry at all and the tears were FLOWINGGGGGG. She gave an option to do the ceremony in Spanish for my family and we did not expect that. Very professional and accommodating staff! The second Yenmin began to give the ceremony, I felt as if me and my husband were alone in the room getting ready to step into the next phase of our life. This experience was everything I could have imagined. Thank you so much!!!!

My review is extremely super late! Like 5-6 years late. But I wanted a fast almost like "Vegas…read morewedding chapel" style. I came across this place! Highly recommended! Very professional and fast! We wanted our wedding to be on our anniversary (Veterans day). They can come to you, or you can go to them. Now, we got married during the pandemic so it was very limited to what they can actually offer at their location. We brought in tripods to set up our phones to do a virtual wedding. I had Facebook live and my husband had zoom on his. This allowed all of our friends and family to attend from near and far. We got there at 1030am to set up and sign the documents. Then the ceremony started at 11am and finished at 11:11am! It did not take us 1 hour to get married, took us longer to set up than it did for the whole process lol. The BEST part is they do EVERYTHING that deals with paperwork for you! During covid, that meant everything because I didnt have to worry about going to file at the county, or deal with people. I know my sister-in-law got married at the same place and so did another colleague from work after we did.

This might be a long one, so bear with me. It goes to show just how much my wife and I appreciated…read moreeverything that Low did for us! So a couple weeks before we were to be married, our pastor we intended on having, fell through. We were a mess at this point, with no idea what to do. We contacted Low, and his responses were extremely fast and helpful. The Sunday before our date, we met with him in Huntington. We'd never used anyone like this, so we were very stressed, not sure how personable and catered to US this would be. Within minutes of sitting down with Low, we started to feel at ease. Like another reviewer said, he recorded our 30-45 minute conversation, so he could be in the moment there with us, talk to us, and get to know us, using our conversation as the basis for personalizing our ceremony that was in a mere 6 days! When we left, we felt good, but still a little apprehensive. Would it be funny? Serious? A hybrid? Low had told us a few things about how he works and his background, but we decided to give it a shot. With 6 days left, we really had no choice. Wedding day came, and it was to be a beach wedding at Arch Cove in Laguna. (Pro-Tip for Laguna Beach weddings...check the tide tables, AND check the beach itself REALLY early on the day of the wedding, if not the day before, and have backup locations ready! At our first location, Arch Cove, the beach steps went all the way to the sand when we first picked the spot. By wedding day a few months later, the surf had washed away a massive portion of the sand and there was now a 2-foot or more drop off from the steps to the beach. Not workable for our older family members.) So here I was, an hour before our wedding, and absolutely FREAKING out. My fiance was getting ready in our room, I was supposed to be at the location, and there was no way family would be able to navigate those stairs and massive step down to the sand. Low took me aside and said...."It'll be ok. Let's check out other beaches. I've done plenty of these around here, and I know other spots." He calmed me, reassured me, and while I was still freaking out, we got in his car and drove. This is where having a secondary backup site for a beach wedding comes in handy. I told him our backup was Shaw's Cove. We were there within minutes, and the place, while a little crowded, was do-able. The massive texts and call frenzy began, and thank God we just had immediate family for the ceremony itself. Only had to re-coordinate with 20 people. Low could see I was on the verge of a panic attack. He again took me aside, talked to me (can't remember exactly what he said), but he reassured me everything was going to be just fine. He told me what to do, and said he'd take care of the rest. At this point, I wasn't even dressed. Again, glad we had a low-key, casual wedding planned, because I just had a linen shirt and beige slacks to put on. But now where to change? Many Laguna Beaches have no restroom facilities. Low gave me his keys, and said I could change in his car. So that's what I did right there on a side-street in Laguna Beach in the back of Low's car. Family got there, fiance got there, and the wedding was.....PERFECT! His message and words seemed to be from someone that knew us for years! Humor, faith, integration of how important our kids and families are to us....all of it it was just absolutely STELLAR! By now I've rambled on too much. For anyone out there that's looking for a wedding officiant, just know that Low went amazingly above and beyond anything my wife and I could have ever hoped for! What looked like was going to be a disaster, turned into one of the most amazing days of my life! Thank you soooooooo much, Low! We're SO glad we decided to have you be a part of our special day!

He really took the time to get to know me and my husband prior to our wedding day. The speech he wrote was as if he had known us for many years. He is very knowledgeable and professional. Even though it may have rained during our ceremony We all had a smile on our faces. It was the best day of our life. David made everyone feel at ease and knows how to roll with it and pivot where needed. We knew we were in great hands and appreciate David for being part of our special day. I highly recommend 10/10.

From our very first…read moreconversation, David was incredibly professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in getting to know us as a couple. He communicated clearly throughout the entire process, explained every step with ease, and made us feel completely confident that our ceremony was in the best hands. What truly set David apart was how heartfelt and personal our ceremony was. He took the time to learn our story, our values, and what mattered most to us, and he wove those details beautifully into the ceremony. It never felt generic or scripted. It felt authentic, meaningful, and deeply reflective of who we are and the journey we share. Many of our guests commented afterward on how emotional and sincere the ceremony felt, and several asked if David was a longtime friend because of how personal it was. On the day of the wedding, David was calm, reassuring, and impeccably prepared. His delivery was warm and confident, striking the perfect balance between reverence, emotion, and joy. He created a space where we felt fully present, grounded, and connected to one another in such an important moment. If you are looking for an officiant who is not only highly professional but also truly cares about crafting a ceremony that feels uniquely yours, David is an exceptional choice. We are so grateful he was part of our wedding day, it was everything we hoped for and more.

What I loved most was how he was open to do or change anything we wanted. He believes it's your wedding day so it should be done your way which is awesome.

The experience was very beautiful and touching. We choose to do the mixing of the wines and it was wonderful. He also informed and emailed a tracking number for our wedding license. Overall it was a great memory and I would highly recommend Larry for your wedding officiant.

If you're looking for an officiant who is professional, engaging, and able to create a ceremony that genuinely resonates, we can't recommend Chris enough.

Unfortunately, I was not able to have the Forever & Always Wedding that I dreamed of. Although…read moreHeather communicated very well, there were a couple of incidents that I found slightly unprofessional: 1. I signed a contract with one of her staff as my wedding planner. Unfortunately, from my understanding, there were unexpected changes in the company, so Heather had to take over. However, Heather responded that she would make an exception for me and not charge me an additional $1000 for this change. With all due respect, I should not be financially penalized for changes that an owner experiences; especially since I already signed the contract that I financially agreed to. 2. I encountered a lot of life changes that disrupted my ability to move forward with a wedding that my brothers were supposed to be in. For instance, I had a depressed, suicidal brother, I had another brother leave for Japan for the Marines, and I had an uncle pass away. All vendors except for Heather were so kind to fully refund my deposits due to the situation. Unfortunately, Heather responded that she was still a businesswoman and was financially hurting, so she was in no place to offer a full refund. I basically paid Heather almost $500 to establish a simple contract. I already had all the vendors in place and organized, so this deposit was for nothing. Heather should not be held responsible for unexpected circumstances, but this wedding meant a lot to me. As a business owner, you should be able to compromise with your clients based on their situation. I could have easily used that deposit to help my family for the funeral. I find this situation absurd because I never wanted a wedding planner to begin with. Our wedding list was only 32 guests, but my fiancé insisted that we hire a planner because he did not want me to stress out. I admire him for caring, but this wedding was going to be a private and intimate event with very little management. I blame myself for hiring a wedding planner when I did not need one. It is unfortunate that Heather was thinking like a businesswoman and not a human being with empathy. Nonetheless, please make sure to ask about the refund policy for emergencies such as death, health, etc. Two stars are for her communication, but I can only evaluate Heather based on my experience with her before the wedding date. Therefore, I am unable to provide feedback for her day service since my wedding never happened. Has it ever occurred to you, Heather, that you had not heard from me in a year because I was busy dealing with other important things like planning a funeral? My wedding was the last thing on my mind. Also, I was not complaining about the charge that never happened, I am complaining about your response to your changes. There was no need to comment on that you are more expensive and won't be charging me. We could have proceeded forward with whatever it was we were doing. You contacted ONE venue and that is because they had YOU sign a contract with them. FYI, my pre-engagement photos were scheduled with the photographer I hired for my wedding and I was still refunded the full amount. This vendor did not work for free either and still managed to prioritize customer service over money. You are a business owner and have the liberty to do as you please, but you must have needed the money more than I did, so I hope my contributions helped your business. Nonetheless, well done on your communication. If you have a family member with a life-threatening illness or you have a medical condition that may require potential hospitalization, please do not hire Heather as your wedding planner as she will not refund you the deposit because not make exceptions for your situation simply because she does not "work for free." Thank you.

It's so important to relate to and connect with your wedding planner and from day 1 it felt like…read moreshe was my friend helping me plan my dream wedding. I found Heather through Yelp and let me say: she really understood my vision and kept it real with me on what i could and couldn't afford lol. Not to mention, I literally and honestly don't know how I could have enjoyed my wedding without Heather. Her and her assistant, Courtney, handled E V E R Y T H I N G on the day of our wedding at the Estate on Second and then some. If there was any sort of problem, she had the solution. If we needed a drink, she was there with mine and my husband's signature cocktails. If I was losing track of time, she made sure to gently push me along. She truly handled everything so that me and my husband could just have FUN and for that I am truly grateful.
