Emily was an exceptional wedding officiant! She was professional, friendly, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. Not only did she handle all the paperwork seaml...
essly, but her experience allowed her to anticipate any questions or concerns we had, making everything stress-free. On top of that, everyone at the wedding couldn’t stop talking about how great she was. We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant to make our day so special! Highly recommend her.
Emily was kind, supportive, and communicative throughout the entire process. Would highly recommend her!
Where to begin?! We were fortunate enough to work with both Emily Button and Chris Rodriguez for our wedding. Emily is a lovely person, and she did a beautiful job crafting the per...
fect ceremony for us. Unfortunately there was a scheduling conflict that led to Chris stepping in as our officiant, but to us that just proved how lucky we were to have hired LA Wedding Woman. We were informed that Chris was available to take over, and the transition was completely seamless. We knew after one phone call that he was a perfect fit for us, so much so, that after our ceremony all of our guests thought he was a close friend! Chris is an absolute gem, who also happens to be an excellent public speaker. Thank you LA Wedding Woman for being such an integral part of our special day, and to Chris and Emily for making it so special.
My partner and I interviewed several officiants for our wedding in July 2020. We ultimately decided to go with Jenny at LA Wedding Woman. She did a fantastic job putting us at ease...
throughout the process, helping us build out and script our ceremony, and was a very kind and positive presence throughout. She has an authentic way of engaging with couples, and it's clear that she truly enjoys being a part of making her clients' big day meaningful and memorable. It's an authentic joy that can't be faked that shines through in her approach to not just slapping a cookie cutter script together but taking the time to help her clients customize a ceremony that meets the moment as they see fit. She acts as a guide in the process, enabling you to choose from a menu of options to build a script, giving you the freedom to make the ceremony truly yours and providing inspiration and guidance when needed. And of course on our big day she delivered with a calm, kind, and peaceful presence and helped to make our wedding authentic and meaningful. We were worried our plans for our sunset wedding might be overshadowed by clouds, but Jenny also came through with a beautiful sunset :) Thank you for helping to make our wedding memorable Jenny.
Getting married during a pandemic is not optimal, but as things go...after being engaged for a few years, we felt it was time, covid or not. Of course, it changes all your plans, ...
and becomes just about the two of you. We decided to go the courthouse route, but of course, after applying and hearing nothing back, and not being able to book an appointment, options were running out. That's when I found LA Wedding Woman. I checked reviews and that clinched it. From the first email, Emily made me feel taken care of, and hopeful that we could make this happen. They assigned Jenny Turner for our officiant, and I have to say, it felt like fate. From our first email and then call, Jenny was helpful, gave us more options that we thought we'd have, and made us feel confident and excited for what was next. We chose the Quickie I do, and Jenny made it a real ceremony...with a beautiful poem, and vows, that made us both cry with joy. It was literally, everything we ever thought we'd want in a ceremony, minus a few family members that could only watch via zoom. Thank you LA Wedding Woman, for making our dreams come true, at an incredible rate, and with less than a week to plan. We could not recommend them more...I am so grateful we found you!!
We used LA Wedding Woman in October to officiate our wedding when we had to postpone our larger wedding, but still wanted to get married. We originally spoke with Emily who was gre...
at and very helpful. They made sure we had everything we needed for our marriage license and made the whole process very easy. Jenny was our officiant on the day of our wedding and the ceremony was beautiful. We are very happy we used them and would recommend them to others.
We had a brief elopement ceremony with Tracy Lynch in Malibu. Tracy was very helpful in giving us advice during planning and accommodated our rushing around at the last minute. Sh...
e gave us a beautiful ceremony and we're so happy we had her as our officiant. I highly recommend her - especially to anyone trying to do a smaller & more romantic elopement. Thanks Tracy!
Jenny Turner is a dream officiant! We found her through LA Wedding Woman and she checked all the boxes. Kind, organized, easy to work with, flexible, confident, approachable, pun...
ctual, trustworthy…the list goes on and on! My fiancé and I had decided to elope with a small outdoor wedding, just the two of us. Jenny literally handled all the rest. After answering only a few short questions, she was able to fill out all of our paperwork and get our marriage license and handled that side of things completely. All we had to do was show up on the day of our wedding and sign some papers and we were all set. No waiting in lines at county clerk offices or anything. It was an absolute dream and allowed us to be stress free and just focus on our ceremony. It was perfect. It was easy. I can’t recommend Jenny enough. She has such a calming and friendly presence and was such a joy to work with. If you’re looking for an officiant, she’s a stellar choice!
Due to the craziness of COVID19, my husband and I were unable to obtain a marriage license from LA County. I was lucky enough to find Jenny with L.A. Wedding Woman who made the pro...
cess quick and painless. She’s an incredibly caring and supportive person who really wants the very best for her couples. Thank you Jenny!
So thankful for LA Wedding Woman! I started communicating with Emily right after we had to postpone our March courthouse plan due to C-19, and we were fortunate to have Jenny marry...
us in early September. We chose to do the very quick ceremony and yet Jenny made it special with her sincerity, guidance, and embracing our humor.
Absolutely wonderful service these women offer! My husband and I wanted to elope during covid and they found a way to do exactly what we wanted at no risk to our health and in a sh...
ort time frame. The process was so easy and lovely. We filled out all the paperwork online, met Jenny in the park and she did our license and certificate in the same socially distanced meeting. Jenny was so warm and charismatic and exactly the type of person we wanted for our officiant. Her little ceremony was so sweet and authentic feeling. Definitely plan something fun for after the elopement if you do the quick i do package. We went camping and it was such a beautiful, safe and affordable day. So glad we did it this way.
Two words: Elysia Skye! She is absolutely INCREDIBLE. I cannot recommend her enough. She made our wedding day seriously so special and set the tone for the evening and for our life...
. From the moment we met Elysia, I knew I made the right choice. She is so kind, generous and is one of the best and most genuine people I have ever met. She spent hours talking to my husband and I, giving advice, getting to know us, talking about how we met, what we wanted for our ceremony and for our life. She is a true gem. She wrote the most heartfelt ceremony and really nailed everything my husband and I would have wanted to say to each other. She helped us with our vows and made awesome suggestions to make our ceremony unique and special. She is so responsive and really just an amazing person. The wedding day was even more magical. The moment she got there she took my husband and I to a room in the casita where we were getting ready and just had us take a moment to really soak in what was going on. She really helped us slow down time that day, and for that I will always be grateful. She had the most heartfelt ceremony and all of my guests told me that it was the best ceremony they have attended and all were raving about how amazing she was. She had everyone in tears, even my vendors!! Elysia Skye is unreal and is the best! I don't have enough great things to say about her. Elysia, thank you for everything. Matt and I are so lucky to have had you officiate our wedding and to have met you!
My wife and I were married by Elysia! Words cannot express how blessed and lucky we were to have her as our officiant. We got married on 8.24.18 out in temecula. We continue to rec...
eive an abundance of compliments regarding our amazing ceremony. Elysia is such an amazing soul and very professional. 10 ⭐️ rating from my wife and I! ❤️ we couldn’t ask for a better officiant who was as present and in the moment as we were during our magical day!

Elysia did a great job helping us to customize and plan our wedding ceremony. For an extra fee she helped to run our rehearsal the evening before, which I am really glad for becaus...
e it helped ease our and our parents' minds for the big day. She was very warm and kind and helped to calm our nerves beforehand. She was particularly graceful in the way she helped smooth over some unexpected (externally related) bumps during the ceremony and helped keep things moving along. I'm very glad we went with Elysia because her guidance helped to solidify our vision of our wedding and made us feel well-taken care of.
Elysia was absolutely wonderful. We were nervous to find an officiant online, but so glad we proceeded. She immediately quelled any nerves we had. We did a customized ceremony, and...
Elysia did a wonderful job pulling from our personal story and our wishes to create a spiritual ceremony that was neither heavy-handed nor too abstract. Our guests noted how much our ceremony was "a breath of fresh air". Elysia came armed with all manner of questions and suggestions that made for the perfect ceremony. We couldn't have been happier!
Elysia was always very responsive and thoughtful in our conversations with her. We were extremely pleased with how Elysia officiated the ceremony, it was customized to us. One of t...
he many great things about Eysia is that she genuinely cares about people. So sweet.
Elysia is a caring and loving woman who made our ceremony everything (and beyond) what I imagined! Before the wedding she made herself available to help with anything that was str...
essing us out (an offer that I never expected but truly appreciated). My husband loved her and how she handled everything and I would gladly recommend her to anyone in search of a wedding officiant with a true passion for giving a gorgeous, loving, emotional (but relaxed) ceremony.
As a same-gender couple together for almost 28 years, we thought we were quite jaded going into any kind of ceremony planning, but we did want something that spoke of who we are an...
d have been. From the minute I spoke to Elysia on the phone, I knew that this was going to be a perfect journey. We met for coffee for about 2 hours to get to know each other and discuss the simple, intimate ceremony we wanted. She GOT IT and GOT US right away! While we were not planning anything specific, she gave us creative and touching ideas for a unity ceremony as well as a way to symbolize both of our religions in a way that would have never occurred to us. Her kind heart and gentle spirit made the entire experience, as simple as it was, a day we will always cherish especially because of her unique touch. Her words and sincere presence created an emotional, spiritual moment that no words can explain. I hope to keep in touch with Elysia and have her renew our vows when we get to 50! She is very special and we are blessed to have met her to guide us through this life changing event. Thank you for sharing your heart with us Elysia xoxo Leslye and Barbara
Rev Maria Felipe from LA Wedding Woman officiated my wedding this past November. I wanted a non-denominational, bilingual (English/Spanish) ceremony and she did a beautiful job! Sh...
e was responsive to any questions and concerns that my husband and I had. She shared her standard script, offered places to make adjustments, and discussed how she would handle switching between languages without losing the guests. She's an engaging speaker who can ad lib if need be and translate on the fly.
My favorite moment while working with her before the wedding is when she read a passage, looked at us and said "no, that's not you" and took it out. She's just that good at getting a feel for who you are and making her service reflect the two of you personally. Rev Maria went above and beyond and I highly recommend her.
My friend who's a wedding planner suggested us hiring LA Wedding Woman as our officiate, and I'm so very glad I did. Elysia was beyond amazing at answering any of our questions or ...
concerns that my husband and I had. The day of the wedding, she was very sweet to make sure that we were ok and made sure we had everything we needed and more. I turned out to be one nervous teary eye bride and she was so calm and helped me through it. I don't know what i would do without her help and advice.
Thank you Elysia, we are forever grateful to have you as a part of our wedding!
Love,
Suzie & Raul Burgos
Elysia made us feel special from the first moment we spoke with her. She was with us and in constant contact every step of the way and was a guiding and encouraging voice up until ...
our wedding and to this day! We cannot imagine our wedding any other way without her involved. Our wedding was exactly how we wanted it to be, there was never any concern about anything with Elysia. She was a major part of our wedding and our lives now going forward. We cannot recommend her enough(and have to our friends, who she is leaving the same impression on as well). Reliable, accommodating, supporting and loving, Elysia is amazing. We love and thank her immensely.
I randomly found Elysia/LA Wedding Woman online and am so thankful that I did. My husband and I were nervous about who to chose, as we have been to weddings where the officiant eit...
her screws up the bride or groom's name, or is overly serious. Elysia was a perfect fit. We both liked her instantly and loved the vows she created for us. The day of the wedding she even acted as last minute wedding coordinator and helped get the bridal party down the aisle at the perfect time. I had friends come up to me after the wedding and say that the vows were beautiful and asked if we wrote them ourselves, because they were so beautifully written. To me, that spoke volumes. I have already had one friend use Elysia for her wedding and I truly, and honestly would recommend her to anyone. She has a heart of gold.
Stop reading the reviews and just call Elysia. It will be the best decision you make. Elysia is not only professional, she is a sweetheart who truly cares for her clients. Elysia o...
fficiated our wedding last year. We decided to go with a customized package and I'm glad we did because it gave us time to meet Elysia and discuss details we would have never thought of. In addition, Elysia made herself available via email/phone which I appreciated since my work schedule can get really busy. When our special day came, Elysia was onsite before anyone and helped us relax before we started the ceremony. Looking back on our day, our wedding wouldn't have been the same without her. Thank you Elysia for making our wedding day so memorable!!
We decided to get married and then we wanted to do it 2 days later. I contacted Elysia, she returned my call almost immediately. She had variations of vows and programs we could se...
lect from. We wanted something simple and beautiful. She suggested a beautiful beach wedding location and 2 days later there we were.
She arrived to the chaos calm, energetic and full of love. She took time to really speak to myself and then my husband and she just held the energy of love in her aura. He attendance was like getting an additional blessing for our wedding!! We loved her so much we asked her to hang out and have dinner with us afterwards. She felt like part of the family.
It was magical and it would not have been the same without her! Highly recommended- to the moon and back!
We were on a round-the-world trip and decided to elope while passing through LA. We contacted Elysia about a month ahead and she was most helpful and professional! She suggested se...
veral possible locations, we chose one and it was perfect! As well Elysia herself, from the first moment we knew we did well, her speech was sweet and kind just as she is. We spent a great morning together on the beach! We would have never imagined that our wedding day could be so great, we wanted to elope without much fuss, but mostly thanks to Elysia it turned into something special.
Thanks again and good luck in the future, you're awesome!
we used LA wedding woman of officiant our "secret" ceremony when gay marriage became legal in CA. Elysia met us at our location and performed the sweetest ceremony. She is so pro...

We got married on October 11th and had the best Officiant! I can't thank Elysia Skye from LA Wedding Woman enough for always being there for me. She guided me through the officiati...
ng process and was ALWAYS very patient. She truly cares. She even called me a few days before the wedding to ensure that we covered everything and she also wanted to make sure her manicure matched my wedding colors. She is absolutely amazing and I wouldn't recommend any other person to officiate a wedding. Having Elysia officiate us was one of the best decisions we made. LA Wedding Woman is the best!
I had the pleasure of having one of LA Wedding Woman be the officiant at my wedding. My wife and I felt extremely satisfied with the ceremony our officiant gave us. Tracy Lynch hel...
ped us from the moment she contacted us. My Wife and I decided to have a sand ceremony and write our own vows, she gave us a lot of advice and helped us with our vows. I truly recommend Tracy Lynch as your officiant...the kind of help she gives you will help any bride in a stressful planning...her attention to detail makes you feel that your ceremony will be an unforgettable day.
We were married in West Hollywood last week by Elysia Skye from the LA Wedding Woman. Elysia took the time to get to know us as a couple and performed the most incredible wedding c...
eremony. Her attention to detail is amazing and she went over and above for us. The ceremony was perfect and she made that possible. She is a beautiful person who truly loves what she does and it shows in her work. We would have to say she is the best.
We were married by Ariel and I have to say she went above and beyond. We eloped to California and it was just the 2 of us. Ariel showed up early, helped me get into my dress and ...
the final preparations for my march to my spouse.
The ceremony itself was perfect, I have no complaints and had a great day. It was simple and exactly what wanted for our ceremony. Thank you so much for helping our day be perfect.
We were so lucky to have found Elysia! Working with her was one of the easiest parts of our wedding; she took a LOT of pressure off of us. It was a relief to know th...
at she'd be handling the paperwork, forms, etc, and she'd get it done right. With Elysia's advice and help, writing our ceremony and vows stopped being work and started being fun! Elysia sent us some possible templates as guidelines, and Carrie and I re-wrote them to be the perfect fit for us. Throughout the whole process, Elysia did a great job of matching our needs and making our ideas happen; it was so nice to work with her. Thank you so much!
Elysia Skye with LA Wedding Woman guided us through the planning of our wedding and was the officiant. she gave us great suggestions for locations where we can do a simple ceremony...

We recommend her!

ent of our love to light! Along with our friends and family we laughed and cried tears of joy while Elysia told the beautiful story of our love. My wife and I would highly recommend L.A. Wedding Woman for your all your ceremony needs! It made our Day Deux feel as special as the first time we said "I DO"!
We had the pleasure of having LA Wedding Woman officiate mine and my wife's Union back in December of 2013 while standing in front of our two daughters. We just wanted to make it v...
ery personal and just between the two of us and our girls for the moment being since we are originally from Las Vegas and traveled to get married to California. We thought it would just be getting to a Venue Elysia picked and signing the paperwork, but to our surprise, it became much more special than we could have ever imagined. Elysia from LA Wedding Woman made sure we felt special and officiated our marriage under a canopy and made that day even more glorious for us. She did a small ceremony for us and it was just perfect! Never in our wildest dreams did we think she would go out of her way to make our day even more special. I highly recommend LA Wedding Woman to anyone who wants professionalism, quality, and an officiant who shows they truly care and enjoy what they do.
Easy and stress free from beginning to end! From the first phone call, I felt taken care of and confident that everything would run smoothly.
We requested a quick "I do" ceremon...
y. Elysia went way above and beyond our expectations. She is such a lovely person! She listens to your needs. Her presence alone promotes a sense of peace, love and tranquility! She helped us fully experience this special occasion.
If I could give this company 25 stars I would!
