We chose Mercedes to be part of our wedding on June 12, 2021 and be our officiant. Mercedes has a warm, kind, and out going personality, which has you and your guests fall in love with right away. She blended in with the family and friends and made the ceremony engaging, up lifting and funny. We had a great time and we could not have imagined our wedding without her. Our wedding took place on honeymoon island state park, north beach and it was a dream come true. She helped both I and my husband out to prepare for this magical event. Mercedes is beautiful inside and out, and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice! Thank you Mercedes, Claudia and Dan. Our wedding ceremony was perfect and you made it so memorable.

Mercedes did amazing officiating our small casual wedding at our home. She was professional and it was effortless to work with her. She provided the perfect amount of spirituality that we wanted and allowed us to make the ceremony personal to us. Everyone complimented the service and we really felt that it was a memorable experience. It would not have been what it was without her. We highly recommend her for your wedding whether big or small.

Mercedes was absolutely wonderful in every way. My (now) wife and I has a very small intimate non-religious wedding and Mercedes was everything we could have hoped for and more. Even though we did not have an opportunity to meet her before the ceremony itself, we were completely confident that it would go off without any issues. She was responsive, professional and more than patient with our very busy schedules. Happy to respond whichever way was prefered, whether it was via text, phone call or email. The ceremony itself could not have been more perfect and her choice of words brought both of us to tears the first time we read them. We would both highly recommend Mercedes to anyone looking for an officiant. :) :) :) :) :)

I was very hesitant on who to choose to officiate my wedding ceremony. My husband and I are Hispanic and perfected the ceremony to be in Spanish. Mercedes did an excel and job portraying us as a couple and made it very unique and special to us. Thank you Mercedes for an unforgettable moment!
