I hired Ryan after seeing him in action officiating a wedding. He was so swell spoken and articulated the couple's love perfectly! I knew that he was the right choice for my wedding right away. From our first introduction phone call where we customized our ceremony, versus, vows, and timeline of the ceremony, it all felt right. We got so excited to go over the special things that we wanted for our big day. We had a 22 month engagement, so a few months prior to the wedding, we had another phone call to discuss what we decided on and solidify the ceremony order of events. My husband and I were smiling ear to ear and tears were filling our eyes practicing our vows and discussing details with Ryan. On the day of the wedding, he arrived early and double checked some details before we got ceremony started. I didn't have to worry about a thing due to his calm nature and encouragement on the big day. Funny enough, there was a miscommunication between my photographer, wedding party, and me on who had my vow book. I though the photographer brought both the vow books to my husband, but mine was left in the wedding suite. Ryan, without even flinching carried onto the next part of our ceremony while my sister ran back to the wedding suite to grab my vow book. This made my husband say his vows first and me be a blubbering mess trying to read my vows after him. But it all turned out so beautiful and perfect due to Ryan's professionalism and willingness to pivot. We received so many compliments from my guests after the ceremony on what an amazing job he did and how they've never met an officiant who was so connected with the couple. Ryan, I can't thank you enough for making my wedding ceremony so perfect! BOOK HIM BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!

To be honest, when we booked our wedding officiant we didn't do much research it was between Ryan and another officiant my wedding planner had suggested. Ryan was quick to respond and was available for our wedding so we went ahead and booked him. His initial phone meeting was very through-rough and he walked us through exactly how the wedding will go. He made my husband's vows sound so much more elegant and refined. Even my wedding planner was very impressed with Ryan. She told us she's glad we picked Ryan over her recommendation. Our wedding guest spoke very highly about Ryan, they noted how clear his words were and the tone of his voice was very relax and easy. Overall, don't hesitate to book Ryan. He was on time, did a phenomenal job and even sent out our wedding forms for us. We couldn't be happier with our choice.

We cannot more highly recommend Weddings Royale! Ryan exceeded all of our expectations! We absolutely loved every second of our ceremony. We laughed, we cried, and we walked down the aisle as husband and wife on cloud nine! Choosing the right officiant for your wedding is a difficult task, but Ryan put us at ease from the moment we first talked to him. His calm, pleasant, professional demeanor, and his obviously-polished public speaking skills gave us confidence that he was the right choice for our day. Ryan was responsive to all of our questions leading up to the wedding. We loved how flexible Ryan was to personalize and tailor the ceremony script and flow exactly the way we wanted! He even booked an in-person meetup at a nearby coffee shop to walk through the ceremony structure and narrow down some details. Even though he was speaking generally and hadn't yet finalized the ceremony script, he had us both in tears! On the day of the wedding, he showed up early, picture-perfect in his suit, and proceeded to deliver the best ceremony we have ever experienced - no exaggeration. Our ceremony was personalized, heart felt, eloquently spoken, and flowed naturally. He had tailored the entire ceremony around us, weaving in answers to questions that he had asked both beforehand (it was the first time we heard each other's answers - leading to laughs and loving tears), delivering polished anecdotes, and keeping our audience's attention with the perfect mix of 'fun' and 'meaningful.' Our guests can't stop talking about the uniqueness and personalization of the ceremony, and they absolutely gush over Ryan's work - and for good reason. Some guests even commented on how deeply touched and inspired they were by Ryan's words! Oh, and for those of you hoping to have first kiss photos without your officiant standing right behind you - Ryan completely understands the assignment! He quickly moves out of the way so you can get those flawless first kiss photos! After the ceremony, Ryan was a class act and stopped by the bridal suite to check in with us, thank us, and wish us well. He promptly filed our marriage license and sent us a photo of the official "Received" stamp. We didn't have to worry about a thing! It's not often that a couple can say that the ceremony was their favorite part of the wedding day, but thanks to Ryan and Weddings Royale, we can say that without hesitation. Thank you so much, Ryan!

We hit the jackpot with Weddings Royale for our officiant. Right from our first call, Ryan demonstrated a genuine interest in understanding us and facilitated the process of obtaining a marriage license seamlessly. He went the extra mile by suggesting a lunch meetup, just to get to know us better and deepen our connection. When the big day rolled around, Ryan was on fire! Early, decked out in our wedding colors, he breezed through the paperwork in less than 5 minutes, he helped ease my anxiety by going through everything with me one more time before the ceremony so that I would feel comfortable. His preparation, confidence, and punctuality were evident, setting the tone for an outstanding ceremony. What truly set Ryan apart was his ability to tailor the ceremony to us. The way he seamlessly integrated our love story into his speech captivated our guests. Our guests couldn't stop talking about it. Ryan's storytelling game was on point - he had everyone laughing, crying, and giving us a standing ovation. His voice, charm, and the way he owned the stage made it seem like he'd been our friend forever and till this day people still ask about him. Beyond the ceremony itself, Ryan paid attention to the little details, like holding the microphone for us and strategically stepping away during key moments for optimal photos. The months leading up to the wedding were stress-free, and we felt confident that we had made the right choice. His meticulous planning and execution made our ceremony perfect. Ryan was worth his weight in gold, hands down the best investment for our wedding. I'm still mind-blown I want to cry every time I hit play on our ceremony videos. Big shoutout to Weddings Royale - you guys made our day truly special!

If you want an absolutely beautiful and unique wedding ceremony, look no further! My husband and I cannot recommend Ryan enough as a wedding officiant! From our first meeting with him we noticed how much passion and care he has for officiating weddings. He listened intently to what we were looking for in a ceremony and proposed his ceremony vision, which we loved. After booking with Ryan, we scheduled another visit to talk more about the wedding and for Ryan to get to know us more. Throughout wedding planning Ryan was very quick to respond to emails and helped us with any questions we had along the way. The night before the wedding, Ryan texted us wishing us a happy wedding eve, which was extremely thoughtful! Our ceremony was our favorite part of our wedding and we credit that to Ryan. The five questions that Ryan presented took the stress off of us during the ceremony and numerous guests told us how much they loved that part. Such a unique and romantic part of the ceremony, a truly genius addition. Also, Ryan helped out with any wedding license questions we have had and took care of taking the license to the county clerk to get it filed. If you want to have the best ceremony possible and low stress obtaining and filing your license then you don't need to look any further than Weddings Royale. TLDR; book Ryan as your officiant and use the five questions. It will be the best ceremony you and your guests have ever been a part of.

Working with Ryan was like working with a best friend. Not only was he super informative, helpful and friendly in the beginning before we asked if he'd be our officiant but he also spent a lot of time getting to know us over the phone/FaceTime/texting afterwards. When he officiated our ceremony everyone was convinced he had been a friend of ours for years. Not only was the ceremony unique but also very personalized. He gave us the tools to help him get to know us and build the perfect ceremony. My husband and I had a smaller, more intimate, ceremony this year and immediately re-booked Ryan to be at our next ceremony.

If we could give 10 stars Ryan would have earned them. So many people commented about the amazing job he did officiating our wedding. Ryan is everything you can ask for in an officiant. More than that, he goes above and beyond in every way. When our wedding was postponed and then our date was changed due to a venue error, Ryan was the person who called to ask how we were doing and if he could help. The day of our rehearsal he called to ask if he could bring a Starbucks for us. When it came to the ceremony, he did exactly what we asked for and was so personable that we felt like a close friend was performing our wedding. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Several people called after our wedding just to tell us how impressed they were with how Ryan performed our ceremony. You simply cannot go wrong with this choice. We actually decided to send an additional tip after hearing so much positive feedback!

Ryan is a perfect example of a man who provides superior and unexpected customer service. He made my wedding ceremony beyond special, a fairytale dream that came into a reality. Ryan puts his heart and soul into his work and really connected with all the guests, with myself and now my beautiful wife April.

When searching for an officiant, we set out to find someone with an approachable demeanor; smart, wise and someone who has the ability to make a make a quick joke to ease everyone's tension-- so I was surprised to find all these qualities from someone buried on the 28th page of google. From the first email correspondence with Ryan and our first meeting at a coffee shop, his approach was so helpful and straightforward, and put us at ease. When it came to constructing the script for the ceremony, he had a perfect outline and flow of the ceremony. He was involved in selecting excerpts and made it collaborative. Ryan really made it feel unique and that the ceremony was true to us. He (and his lovely wife and daughters) arrived promptly and immediately put us at ease with his gentle and charming nature, as he walked around and chatted with the wedding audience with candor and grace. He gave us excellent advice before the ceremony so that my wife and I could be fully present and engage with one another. This advice made the ceremony so intimate and shook us out of our jitters completely. The ceremony itself was so poignant, moving and a major highlight of the day-- and when you spend so much time thinking about the details of flowers, food, decor, attire...Then your 5th cousin comes up to you and says "cool wedding and stuff, but that officiant Ryan was really, really good," --That speaks volumes. Ryan spoke eloquently and with the rhythm and pacing of a seasoned comic. His charm brought the words on the page to life. You know that he loves what he does because the passion pours out of him. Our guests were all in tears of laughter and happiness and guests commented that ours was the most moving ceremony they had ever experienced. It's hard to be objective, but they were echoing our own feelings. What we experienced was so rare and beautiful and we couldn't have had anyone better to lead us than Ryan. Thank you so much for making our day so special!

Pastor Ryan is heaven sent! First impressions were he was very receptive and prompt to respond. We are honored to have him officiate our wedding. He worked closely with us to ensure a meaningful, personalized and fun ceremony. Our ceremony was beautiful..celebrated with tears and laughter. He was our MC ( he agreed with a very short notice given, super grateful for that) for the reception as well. His energy, warmth, great personality and impeccable skills set the lively, festive and fun tone at our reception. He was everything we hoped for and more! I couldnt have coped and survived without his help!

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!!!!

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.

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.

Unexpectedly, we arrived in LA just as the Palisades fire was gaining speed, a very destabilizing event.

We have met other couples who have never met their day-of coordinator nor communicated with them. This surprised us as that was not the case with Danielle. Danielle is thorough with every single detail and will help coordinate all of the vendors. She helps to organize your timeline as well as gives you tools to organize preparation for decor. Danielle was personable and warm to communicate with. She truly knows her craft well and does it with the utmost diligence, timeliness, and professionalism. Additionally, what makes having her help so sweet is that Danielle is such a genuine and kind person to be around. She helped us to set our boundaries so that we could enjoy our day and managed through some dynamics to alleviate stress on us. Personally, I have a hard time not getting my hands into everything, but on that day I really tried and was told to sit back and relax. Not only does she manage our wedding well, but she also helped us refocus on what we wanted as our purpose for our rescheduled wedding. Struggling with rescheduling and feeling apathetic in times of planning, Danielle helped to keep our spirits high because we still wanted to celebrate with our community. Danielle-- thank you so much. You are a true gem and you helped us to soak in every moment of our wedding day. Just know that you are part of our memories whenever we think back to our wedding.

Originally we hired her for week of coordination, but she made herself available for more than that week to help get the day organized. She called all vendors and organized everything to make scheduling easy and also helped us ask the right questions that i would have never thought of. On our wedding day, we were expecting rain and wanted to have our wedding outside. She tried her best to work with the venue in order to make it possible. Candace knows a good mix of giving her thoughts but also allowing us to make our own decisions. She's very patient and never once appeared to be frustrated. In fact even though it's her business, she still seems to be so enchanted by weddings. We would definitely recommend her to all our future friends' weddings because of her passionate character as well as her unbeatable prices. We love Candace and don't second guess on hiring her because SHE IS THE ONE!
