Thank you so much for your kind words. Your wedding was wonderful because the two of you were in it.
Please do forgive me for the tardy response, the Knot had a glitch in the system so i could not respond until now.
I wish you love, laughter a...

You are such a gorgeous couple.

When Christobel showed up on site, early, you could tell that everything was going to be right. She walked right up and in her calming voice said don't you worry about a thing. This is going to be great! And it was! Mindi and I were so plea...
sed to have met her and glad we chose her services. She puts her entire heart and soul into this. We knew she was the right choice when she walked by my favorite aunt and asked to pray over her before the ceremonies. If you're looking for a sprinkling of love over your ceremony, start by booking Christobel.
Response from the Vendor on 06/17/2022
My Goodness such a wonderful review. Thank you so much Wayne & Mindi.
Without the two of you none of this would have happened. Having a heart connection is the key to a flawless wedding. And we did have a heart connection.
I loved your selec...
tion of the Unity Family Plaque that we incorporated into your ceremony. It will be a forever treasured memory of the day you both said "I do".
It was Love that brought you together and it is Love that will carry you through a lifetime of treasured memories.
Thank you for choosing Weddings by Christobel to be your officiant. I would not have missed it for the world.
All my love,
Christobel Elizabeth

We can't thank Christobel enough for the amazing wedding. From the time we reached out to her when searching for an officiant to the follow up helping us with our wedding license, Christobel was there for it all! We had so many guests ask us ...
how and where we met the officiant for our wedding and most of not all thought we had known her for years! That alone is a true testament to the type of lady Ms. Christobel is. She truly does care about how your wedding day turns out. You can definitely tell she rehears our script (mind you we made several last min changed and customization) and she nailed it! We had live music,unity candles, etc so there were several moving pieces and as she promised it was perfect. Her sweet accent was loved by all and again everyone asked how long we had known each other because the wedding was flawless! I also want to add she has the sweetest dogs and was so very kind to my family that was in town from our of state. Let me tell you I would hire Christobel 1000 times over because we are so happy with the ceremony we built together! Thank you Ms. Christobel!

Dear Cory & Brinna, thank you for this wonderful review I am so honored.
At times like this is makes me all the more passionate about the love and beauty of your wedding ceremony that we created.
You are two amazing people that I loved being ar...

As you go forward may you face every challenge hand-in-hand and side-by-side knowing that with God’s grace, you’ll conquer all obstacles together.
May the world be forever a better place because the two of you fell in love,
Sending you all of my love and thank you for the wonderful memories we shall have for many years to come.

Christobel is truly amazing at what she does. She tailors every ceremony to each couple and personalizes it. We held a 5 year vow renewal and she suggested incorporating our children which was awesome. She made the ceremony unique to us and I l...
ove that. We did have a hiccup with one of the names mentioned in the ceremony, but not everyone notices and Christobel offered a great suggestion to have the videographer edit it to make sure it wasn’t notes in our video. She really is experienced and knows what she’s doing. I would recommend her to anyone who is getting married or celebrating a renewal. I can not say wooing about her and can’t wait to watch it all when the video is released.

Our oldest daughter’s planned wedding had to be postponed after her dad was injured the week of the ceremony. Our family was heartbroken for the change in plans and after talking to our daughter and son in law about going ahead and getting marr...
ied privately, we called Reverend Christobel Hanz with Weddings by Christobel. Christobel stepped in immediately, and created a beautiful ceremony for the happy couple that was attended by them and their siblings on a bridge over the river. Christobel, spoke words of life and blessing over their family and their marriage and showed them (and all of us) so much love that it totally turned around, what was a sad week of events for our family. Dad is on the mend and our planned ceremony will be back on the books again soon but we all agree that having Christobel perform their private marriage ceremony was perfect and so very special! If we could give her ten stars we would! If you’re looking for someone who will not only marry you but cheer you on, love you, and truly care about your day with you- hire Reverend Christobel Hanz!! She is simply the best!

After having a family emergancy we had to cancel our big wedding. y husband and I still wanted to get married so we just decided to elope. My mom had messaged Reverend Christobel and asked if she could perform a last minute ceremony for us. She...
happily agreed and when I tell you put on the most spectacle and fabulous elopement, I mean it. It was already such a great day filled with love but her excitement and joy during our ceremony made everything so much better. She spoke with such love and kindness in her voice (plus her accent is just to die for). She was truly such an amazing part of our day and i’m so very very thankful she was able to fulfill our dreams of being husband and wife. We love you Rev🤍 She is a dream to work with.

Rev. Christobel is AMAZING!! She officiated a good friend’s wedding a few years ago and when it was time to pick someone for my daughter, I knew she’d perfect. Christobel did not disappoint. They fell in love with her on their first meeting (as...

Christobel was amazing. She has a lot of ideas and experience - we were able to perfectly tailor our ceremony to exactly what we wanted. She *can* be a little long winded in the intro (lol sorry Christobel), but we really had no other complaint...
s otherwise. Very personable, easy to talk to, and also does military discounts! Loved her, definitely recommended.

Where do I start?! We knew we wanted Christobel the moment we heard her voice when I found a clip on The Knot. She was amazing from our first meeting to even after our wedding. I noticed during the ceremony I was not nervous at all and I jus...
t knew I was going to be. My husband and I said we really believe it was her calming tone/voice that made us just feel so relaxed on our big day. We felt as if it was just her and us in that church that day. Mind you I had been running around on our wedding day up until about 2 hours before and somehow she made me feel so relaxed. She also has a way with words. I loved that she just didn't have 1 ceremony that she uses for every couple. She lets you pick your ceremony and really tailor it to you and your spouse down to all the small details. The ceremonies are not cookie cutter at all. They all sound beautiful. She is just flawless during her ceremony and makes you feel like you are so special to her. I am so glad we chose you Christobel! Best decision ever ❤

The pleasure was all mine I can assure you.
I am so happy for you both, this was a long time in coming but it was a day that you will both remember for as long as you both shall live.

Thank you again for your love and awesome review.

Christobel is a beautiful spirit. She was very responsive, professional, and on time. She is kind and very personable. I can tell that she means what her profile says and she enjoys celebrating love. I am thankful that she officiated our 40th a...
nniversary vow renewal ceremony. This ceremony was very special after 40 years because we never had a wedding initially and wanted the perfect ceremony and Christobel did just that. She personalized our love story. There was not a dry eye in the house. She met with us several times to make sure every word and details were perfect ! She went above and beyond that she even took time to make sure our sound guy had it right and added a rose presentation for our mothers. We love her so much and blessed to have met her. It is no surprise she has won The Best of The Knot for six years in a row and has been awarded The Hall of Fame 2018 and in 2019!!!

Where do I start with this beautiful, kind, wonderfully talented and exceptional woman? Christobel, you absolutely made our wedding day the most amazing and special days possible!
We knew Christobel was the one to officiate our wedding after ...
our first conversation. She sat quietly and listened to EVERY word while my wife & I told "our story". She took notes & started to put together ideas for our vows. A week later she called & started to tell us some of her ideas. One word... WOW!! She not only nailed it, but we could feel each and every word and the sincerity and emotion behind each of those words. I have become a big "softy" (yep, I'm the groom) and literally had tears streaming down my face! This would not be the last time we were in tears... ok, I was in tears! lol Thankfully, Christobel came to my rescue at each meeting & again on our wedding day... discreetly handing me a Kleenex each time to wipe my tears (due to my allergies) ha ha :)
Post "I Dos", our guests raved about how amazing and heartfelt the ceremony was and how Christobel was one of the most impressive officiants they have ever seen and witnessed over the years at any wedding... including their own.
Christobel has made a lasting impression on both my wife and I and we absolutely cherish her and our new found friendship. We will forever be grateful to her for making our wedding day so special.
I promise you... you will not find a more caring, professional or beautiful soul to officiate your wedding.

I look forward to many years of friendship with you both, and your amazing children.

Where do I begin with Christobel? She is this eccentric, funny, personable, punctual, friendly, communicative woman who you can’t help but love the moment you meet her. We met with her at her home to discuss her performing our ceremony, which ...
was welcoming, comfortable and homey. And she has such good dogs that made the visit even more enjoyable.
She added an extra special something to our ceremony and we loved having her perform it. We can’t imagine having chosen anyone other than her.

Christobel was absolutely wonderful! She made sure my husband and I had a very loving ceremony. I also appreciate that she made sure our marriage license was signed, I had heard plenty of stories where the officiant had forgotten which turned i...

And thank you for choosing Weddings by Christobel to be the one to stand before you as you pledged your love to one another.
The pleasure was all mine from start to finish.
I love you both very much.

Christobel was the best officiant ever! She met with me several times to finalize the script for our ceremony. I wanted it to be romantic and whimsical. She delivered with her charming English accent :) The readings, vows, and personal touches...
we added really made our experience so special. I would recommend her in a heartbeat!
She really cares about her clients and caters to you as a couple. She is very professional and prompt.
BONUS: She has her own sound system and microphone. My DJ really appreciated this!

From the moment we met with Christobel we knew she was the perfect person to marry us on our special day. Christobel took the time to listen to what my husband and I each wanted and crafted a beautiful, personalized ceremony that was very spec...

Choosing Christobel as our Officiant was the easiest decision we had to make about our wedding-thank you so much Christobel for giving us a perfect ceremony that we will always remember.

It was wonderful getting to work with Christobel. Her ceremonies are so unique and she worked with us to make it our own. Christobel truly cares about her brides and it shows. She gave us recommendations such as a mothers rose ceremony, a hand ...
blessing ceremony, and others that made the day special to us. She explained the queues of how the procession works, when to silence phones, when we say i do, what to do with the rings, etc. She explained the marriage license process to us and met with us twice to go over the ceremony script. Christobel is dedicated and professional and I highly recommend her for your wedding.

Response from the Vendor on 04/01/2019
Thank you Ernest & Rhonda Marquez for this awesome review. It was my honor and pleasure to be your officiant on your wedding day.
We connected at once and were heart to heart on every word we put into your ceremony.
To recap:
Ernest & Rhonda's ...
little daughter Charlotte had the rings tied loosely to her wrist with a ribbon. It was so adorable everybody loved it.
Then at the end of the ceremony we did the Hand Blessing Ceremony with Charlotte the 6 month old daughter,
Charlotte of course did not want a ribbon or a bow on her little hands so she put the ribbons in her mouth. We all thought that was Divine and ooooo’d and ahhhhhh’d
I wish you years of fervent love for each other.
May you never stop dreaming in each other's arms.
All my love,
Christobel Elizabeth <3
My husband, Dick, and I have been married for thirty years, so for our anniversary we decided to return to La Mansion del Rio Hotel on the Riverwalk in San Antonio where we got married, and renew our vows. I asked the concierge for a referral a...
nd got several. I never got past Weddings by Christobel. I spoke on the phone with Christobel Hans and she was so warm and friendly it just made me feel like I was home. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
I paid her fee and she met us at the hotel on New Year’s Day at the same time we had originally married and it was a lovely ceremony. She asked for photos and the story of our marriage, which helped her get to know us, even though we live in Virginia and she in New Braunfels, Texas. We arranged everything by phone and email, and it went off perfectly. She provided a videographer (her husband Ron) and a photographer, Jennifer Requena, of Requena Photography, and both the video and photos were just beautiful. I have a new friend in Christobel and I plan to take her and Ron out to lunch or dinner in October when I visit San Antonio once again. Dick and I just loved our experience with Weddings by Christobel, and again, I cannot recommend her company highly enough.
Response from the Vendor on 01/29/2019
What a precious review from Dick and Linda in Virginia.
I am honored to receive such a review. Thank you so much.
A huge thank you to Jennifer Requena for being such a trooper and devoting her time to make this a special anniversary for our sw...
eet couple.
We were outside the rooms on a long thin balcony overlooking the San Antonio River Walk. Which was so special for just the two of them. Plus we had all the chatter from below which made it even more unique. Even the candle that Dick & Linda lit at the beginning of the ceremony stayed lit throughout the whole ceremony which was a miracle in itself.
And to top it all off right at the end of the ceremony a chapel bell was rung somewhere. How precious was that. We all smiled.
Truly this was a heart to heart connection with Dick & Linda . Such a warm and loving couple. I am so thankful Linda made the choice to call me. Now we are friends for life.
Thank you again Dick & Linda for your wonderful review and I can't wait for October to get here so we can meet again.
Warmly,
Christobel E.
Christobel is completely ONE OF A KIND. I would not have chosen anyone else for our wedding service. I was very nervous picking an officiant because I had technically already gotten married to my significant other before our official wedding. W...
e decided to get married right before he deployed because we wanted zero regrets if anything were to ever happen to either of us but only our close family knew about it. I wanted our officiant to treat our wedding day as if we weren’t technically already married. To us at was still our one and only time walking down the aisle. Christobel knew exactly what it meant to us, she stressed the importance of our wedding day so much and took the time to get to know us on a personal level. We love her so much and she touches anyone and everyone’s heart! She is a complete romantic! And that British accident is just the bow on top ha because who could resist! She took the time to know our family and can handle any surprises that are thrown at her. We are so so grateful to have had her as our officiant on one of the best days of our lives!

Christobel E.
It never occurred to me the importance of selecting the perfect officiant for my wedding until I met Christobel. I realized that the officiant is one of the most important aspects of the wedding (after all this is who is legally marrying you an...
d conducting the whole ceremony!). Let me first start off my sharing the meet and greet experience. My husband and I met with her and she took the time to explain each portion of the cermony; the meaning and which words would mean the most to us. I was overjoyed to learn Christobel NEVER produces the same wedding twice! The day of the wedding during the cermony there was something about her energy that allowed my husband and I to feel as if it was only him and I and the time just stopped our vows were the most beautiful and meaningful to our love story.
Christobel made me feel as if she knew me for years. I love this about her! If you are seeking an officiant for your wedding I highly recommend Christobel! I wish I could repeat my wedding day just for her cermony. Book her now! Thank you Christobel you are amazing!

Christobel is simply amazing!
Neither my wife nor I had been to any weddings before, so we really didn't know what we were looking for. After some extensive research, we cam across Christobel. After watching a video of one of her previous wedd...
ings, we really liked her. Her English accent was a definite hook for us.
After meeting with her, we just fell in love with her. She guided us every step of the way, and if you're willing to listen to suggestions, she will be a lifesaver! She gave us advice on things we didn't even thought about, which made our wedding so much better.
Even though, a good majority of our guests spoke Spanish, they still enjoyed the ceremony as much as we did. We just can't say enough good things about her. You can truly see that she loves what she does, and will dedicate the time to you and your future spouse.
Do not hesitate. You will not be disappointed!
Thank you Christobel!

Christobel is a truly wonderful person inside and out and we could not have been happier to share our special day with her. Since the day we found her on The Knot with her glowing reviews and reached out, she has been such an integral part of o...
ur planning process. Christobel sat down with us one on one and explained the process of officiating the marriage and all of the behind the scene details that I had never even thought of. Christobel was readily available to answer any questions and always in communication through the process. Christobel worked with us to craft a beautiful and personalized ceremony. The day of our wedding, our ceremony brought our guests (and let’s be honest, me too, just a little haha) to tears. I can’t wait to get our video back to watch and rewatch the beautiful ceremony that united us together in marriage. We absolutely could not recommend Christobel enough. She was and is incredible and we are so happy to have shared this day with her.

Planning a wedding in New Braunfels from NC wasn’t easy, and trying to find a good officiant? Even harder!!
I asked our photographer for recommendations and Christobel was her top choice! When we first spoke on the phone she was vibrant, wel...
coming and a total hoot! We wanted someone we felt comfortable with, and she fit that perfectly!
She has so many beautiful ceremony options, and she helped us create one that was totally “us”. She was quick to reply to emails and was so helpful during our time crunch.
She welcomed us into her home to finalize our ceremony and we were smothered with love from her huge rottweiler, Charleston!
Our wedding day was perfect and she was nothing but professional! I highly recommend her beautiful words for every wedding!

If we had any questions she was happy to answer them and quick to reply to our emails. She is such a kind hearted soul and we are so happy to have met her.

I am so grat...

Christobel was wonderful helping to make our ceremony so special. She got to know us before reading various options for the ceremony that would fit our personalities. She put all the verses together and then sent it to us for final approval. Al...

Dear Glen & Kimberley, How sweet you are and thank you for your awesome review.
I loved meeting you and planning your wedding ceremony. It was such a precious time seeing the two of you standing there speaking your words of love to each other...
.
And you are now taking into your care and keeping the happiness of the one person in the entire world whom you love best.
Thank you for everything. I love you both <3
Christobel E.
Christobel is an amazing and beautiful person and this reflected throughout our ceremony. Our wedding took place 03/02/18 in Boerne. From phone conversations to meeting at Panera we knew she was perfect for our big day! She was patient with me ...
and had several beautiful ceremony options for us to chose from, and that could be customized. She put me at ease throughout the entire process, and had many of my friends and family members in tears with her beautiful words during the ceremony. She is professional, welcoming, and very genuine. Words cannot truly express how grateful I am. Thank you so much for everything!

Dear Roberto & Monique,
Thank you for such a touching and beautiful review. It was so kind of you to write this.
I believe that your wedding ceremony was meant to be from the minute we spoke on the telephone and then our face to face meeting....
An immediate heart to heart connection. I will be forever grateful that you chose me to be your officiant. It was indeed a beautiful ceremony.
Not to mention the fun groomsmen !!!
Sending you lots of love as you start your married life together.
Christobel E.
Christobel was a great officiant! She's vibrant and so easy to get along with. She made us feel very comfortable from the moment we met her and we knew she was going to be "the one" to marry us. She's all about making the ceremony about you ...
and your fiance instead of us having to do what she says which is great because at the end of the day it is about us. We were looking for something different and not having the traditional "for better for worse, for richer for poorer..." vows and she had just that! We are confident in knowing she will make your big day extra special and memorable. Thank you, Christobel!

Dear Jennifer, how sweet of you to take the time to write this reviews. Thank you so much.
We really had an unique wedding, it was just amazing.

Love and Blessings to you both.

Christobel was the officiant at our wedding ceremony last week (December 28, 2017), and she did a phenomenal job! I knew from the moment we met her, at her adorable home with her handsome Rottweiler Charleston, that she was a perfect match for ...
us. Her eloquent accent and intonation, along with her vibrant demeanor, created such a beautiful ceremony that will never be forgotten. Our guests continued to rave about her well into the evening, and she certainly deserves it. My husband and I are very grateful to have such a fond memory of our ceremony, and we owe it all to her. I'm confident that Christobel can provide a special and unique day to any bride, and I would recommend her services to anyone! Thank you so much, Christobel! <3

We had our wedding almost a month ago on November 11, 2017. We contacted Christobel very late in the wedding planning, but she was such a pleasure to work with. We didn't have to worry about anything that day! Everything went very smoothly and ...
she had such great options to make our vows special. She even allowed us to incorporate something special on our wedding day. We are completely happy with how everything was done. She is very professional and such a sweet person. Thank you again!

Dear Michael and Tanya,
How sweet you are and thank you so much for your wonderful review.
I was so honored to be able to be your officiant at your gorgeous wedding. It was just breathtaking from start to finish.
I know the pictures will be...
beautiful with the colors you had for your bridesmaids. Not to mention the view of the water fall in the background.
It is such a joy to me to be able to be there as you both stand before all of your family and friends and pledge your love to each other.
I Love you both and thank you again for such sweet memories :)

Christobel Hanz is an amazing officiant and even better person. From the moment my wife and I first met her at Panera Bread, we knew that we wanted her to marry us on our big day. She was very loving and open and was going above and beyond for...
us before we had even booked her for the event. That day we first met, she had prepared ceremonies, re-enacted them, and helped us piece together the perfect ceremony for us. Throughout the time between then and the wedding, christobel was always there to make sure we were ready and gave helpful reminders to make sure we wouldn't forget the marriage license or anything else discussed for our ceremony. During our wedding, Christobel did a phenomenal job and moved many of my family to tears with her descriptions of our love. She also kept composure when my wife's veil flew into her face and did not miss a beat. We could not have been more thankful to have had Christobel with us on that day and anyone who can book her should. I promise it will be the best booking you will make!
Christobel is by far the best wedding officiant! She is extremely easy to work with and always makes you feel at ease. I always loved how easy it was to get a hold of Christobel. She always returned phone calls and emails very quickly and ma...
de sure I was never worried about a thing. Her ceremonies were lovely and she made the process of creating our own ceremony very easy. On top of that she arrived one hour early to the wedding which definitely put my mind at ease. Her accent is also to die for.

Words cannot truly express the emotions and joy I’m still feeling as the words Christobel so eloquently wrote came to life in Chelsey and Christopher’s “Celebration of Love” ceremony. The looks of pure love that Chelsey and Christopher display...
ed as they recited their vows said it all and then some! I can’t thank Christobel enough for including their beautiful daughter, Emerson in the ceremony by having Chelsey’s brother “Uncle Connor” escort Emerson to present her Momma and Dada their wedding rings. Such a touching moment as Chelsey and Christopher and Emerson joined together as a completed circle of love. I had such a huge smile on my face during the whole ceremony that my cheeks were sore the next day! My husband and I are so happy that we met Christobel at Milltown Historic District’s vendor show last fall. I knew then that she was what we were looking for in an Officiant to make our daughter and Christopher’s wedding day one that they will cherish forever. From day one, Christobel was so passionate and caring about listening to what Chelsey and Christopher envisioned for their vows, and she truly expressed the love they have for each other. The ceremony was “Epic” and Chelsey and Christopher described the whole event as a fairytale that came to life!

edding. Stunning from start to finish. I do not think there was a dry eye anywhere when darling Emerson came to join her Daddy and Mommy for the ring vows. Precious beyond words can ever say I truly believe. <3 I love you <3
I cannot praise Christobel enough! From our first meeting Christobel has been so welcoming, caring, & loving. She welcomed us into her home, along with her sweet dog Charleston, as she went over beautiful ceremonies & words that will bring you ...
to tears. Christobel truly becomes a part of your wedding experience & is with you every step of the way. She truly cares about the couples she meets, the ceremonies she presides over & relationships built. I cannot imagine our wedding without Christobel & I am beyond grateful for her & her beautiful personality. Your wedding day will be so much more special with Christobel by your side, as mine was!
Yay, for Christobel!

Thank you for precious memories <3 I love you,
Christobel E.
Our wedding was this past Sunday Sept 17th and let me tell you Christobel made it unforgettable. From the moment we talked to her on the phone we knew she was the perfect fit for us. Christobel treated us like family; she opened up her home to ...
us on several occasions to go over our ceremony. We were even able to bring our daughter to these meeting and Christobel's sweet dog Charleston kept her busy for us. The day of the ceremony went perfectly everyone was talking about how great she was and what a wonderful and unique ceremony we had. If it weren't for Christobel we would not have had the ceremony of our dreams. Christobel is so easy to talk to and is the type of person you want to keep as a friend forever. She can help any couple pick the perfect vows even if you have no idea what you are wanting at first. Christobel has it all and she will not disappoint!!

Dear Robert and Samantha,
This is so very kind of you and thank you so much for your awesome review. Your ceremony was a classic as we made it so.
There is nothing sweeter than a man and a woman falling in love and wanting to share the rest...
of their lives with each other. Your vows to each other were precious not to mention your vows to Chloe.
We all cried ! We had a heart to heart connection right from the beginning which made everything just fit into place and flow.
I am so grateful that you chose me to be your officiant. A moment frozen in time, and a day to be treasured.
Sending you lots of love and best wishes as start your new lives together, forever !
Christobel E.
From the first time we spoke on the phone Chris and I knew christobell was "the one". We bonded over our love for our dogs, bray and Charleston. Our dog Bray is sick and she would go out of her way to call text or email and check on him and h...
ow he was doing.
We met with her and discuss the entire ceremony and really customized everything. Chris and I are both more private people and thought we wanted a five-minute ceremony. After talking with christobell she told us a 25-minute ceremony would fly by and we would probably regret having a five-minute ceremony. And she was right it didn't feel like 25 minutes at all it was the perfect amount of time. We would pick christobell hundred times over again!

Christobel was the perfect touch to our wedding. She was so great to work with and met with us to iron out the finer details. She always kept in touch to make sure everything was up to date and I couldn’t be happier to have worked with her. Her...

Moments like this are timeless,forever etched in our hearts.
Thank you for giving me the honor to be your officiant as I know there were many others you could have chosen. It was such a joy to be around you both.
And now your darling Selena will forever be by your side, to pen a few lines from your vows "I give you my love my heart my hope my joy, these I offer you freely. To celebrate love with you, to share my joy. I choose to go with you always".
Sending you lots of love as you step out to new horizons.
Christobel E.
If only I could say enough ! The ceremony was very professional , the meetings were very pleasant and most of all she put my daughter at ease during the whole time. I would and DO recommend christobel to anybody ! She is by far the BEST !

Again,thank you for your kind and sweet words. It was my honor to be your Officiant.
Sending you all lots of love and best wishes.

Christobel was a lovely person to work with. Our wedding took place on July 8, 2017. I live in Phoenix and decided to have a destination wedding in San Antonio because all of my family lives in Texas. I found Christobel after reading reviews on...
the knot and wedding wire. I called her one evening around 6pm CST without realizing what time it was in Texas. Without hesitation, Christobel took the time to get to know me and learn more about my fiancé during that call. She also read me a few of the different ceremonies she offers. They were all beautiful and well written. I even teared up as she read them. The day of the wedding, Christobel spent some time with the groomsmen and they loved her! She has a great sense of humor. Overall, she is the sweetest person and our ceremony turned out beautiful. Thank you Christobel!
Response from the Vendor on 07/26/2017
How precious you are Analisa,
What a wonderful review and thank you so much.
Actually I had a total blast with the groomsmen, they will probably not forget that one in a hurry :)
But your wedding was an "Epic" stunning from start to finis...
h. Of course both of you made that possible.
The love that you have for one another is tangible for all to see and feel that come into contact with you.
You are both amazing and I am so honored that I was the one standing in front of you when you pledged your love to one another.
Sending you lots of love and best wishes to your life together, forever !
Christobel E.
I'm copying this review from my WeddingWire account, because I know that a lot of people use TheKnot and want everyone to know how awesome Christobel is!!
We were so fortunate to have picked Christobel out of what seemed like a sea of offician...
ts! She is definitely one of a kind and you will not regret picking her for your special day. From all of the weddings I've been to, you're lucky if you get an officiant who doesn't drag on with bible verses and offers the wedding attendants an occasional laugh. With Christobel, you don't need jokes to make the service bearable, it is short and filled with the most beautiful words you will ever hear. Christobel has definitely done her research, bringing together heart-warming and passionate words from all over the world and from every era. She gives you plenty of service options to pick from, and I promise picking your favorites will be the hardest part about working with her!! Make sure to take the time to meet her before the ceremony, I promise it is worth it and her gigantic rottweiler Charleston is absolutely precious. She makes you feel so special and treats your wedding vows as what they are-- the most important words you will ever say and hear. She is also very flexible! We had pouring rain start 30 minutes before the ceremony, and while we were slightly off schedule, she was totally open to doing the ceremony in the wet grass last minute when the clouds parted, and she would have done it inside as well if that's what we had decided on. While everyone loved the ceremony and said that it was "absolutely beautiful," most of the words I heard about her from friends and family were, and I quote verbatim, "I LOVE her!" She was an excellent presence and you will see what I mean the second you speak on the phone with her! That all being said, I hope we will remain in touch with her throughout our years, because she really is just a wonderful person and exactly who I feel we deserved to help us claim our love as ever-lasting. We adore her!

Again I repeat what I posted on Wedding Wire for this awesome couple:
Oh My Goodness Abigale, what a stunning 5 star reveiw. You are so kind to write all of this, thank you so very much. Trust me when I say that if it had not been for the two ...
of you, your awesome parents, the great communication level that flowed between us all, this probably would not have been the Epic Wedding that it was. It was truly amazing. All of the vendors worked with each other at any given moment. The rain could not stop us and it did clear up for you to hold your ceremony in that beautiful location down by the river I am still in awe about the whole day! I love you both with all of my heart (and Charleston said he totally agrees with that ) and am so very happy that you did choose me to be the one standing in front of you both when you pledged your love to one another. As for the first kiss, Noah definitely has won the award for the "Best Dip" ever. Thank you again for your love and sweetness ! Sending lots of love and happiness as you go forward spending your life with the one whom you love the best in the whole wide world <3 Christobel E.
Christobel was great! She really got to know my husband & I. Her words were beautiful! We found her on a preferred list of vendors from our venue. I highly recommend her.

Christobel was absolutely wonderful to work with from beginning to end. I found her based on reviews from The Knot and thought she sounded too good to be true... thankfully she fit all of the fantastic reviews perfectly. Christobel is professio...
nal, funny, caring, and does everything to make your day so very special. She calmed any nerves that I may have had and reassured I would have an absolutely perfect day. I had several guests come up and tell me just what a wonderful ceremony that Christobel officiated and how brilliant they thought she was. My (now) Husband is English, and one of the best surprises is that Christobel is too! It was almost as if a little bit of home was incorporated into our ceremony just for him. Thank you Christobel for going above and beyond, our day would not have been the same without you!

From the moment that we met Christobel, we knew that she was the perfect person to marry us. She is so full of joy and she loves what she does - oh, and her accent is amazing! When we first met, she shared some options for our ceremony and we l...
oved them all. We were looking for something that had a traditional feel, but we also wanted it to be relaxed and heartfelt. Christobel is so eloquent with her words and as she read the ceremony options to us, my fiancé even started to tear up! We knew right then and there that Christobel would be our officiant. Leading up to our day, Christobel was always available to answer any questions we had! On the day of, she arrived early and was so cheerful - she even gave some of our rowdy groomsmen a hard time and they INSTANTLY fell in love with her - it was fantastic! Andrew and I are so glad that we chose Christobel to be a part of our day - we couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect officiant!

special day. Thank you again for your professionalism and kind nature. We really enjoyed working with you and would highly recommend you as a phenomenal officiant. Thank you for everything.
Mary Anne & Stephen
Christobel was the most amazing officiant we could have ever dreamed of! She had us over to her home several times so that she could get to know us as a couple and work with us to personalize a ceremony that was just right for us. She even let ...
us write some of it ourselves!
She offers a ton of options for smaller ceremonies to fit within your larger marriage procession. For example, my fiancé and I had a suprise rose ceremony to honor both of mothers and a wine box and love letter ceremony for eachorher. In that one, we locked away a bottle of wine and two letters that we will open on our 5th anniversary.
Christobel is elegant, confident, funny, warm, accomodating, and a pleasure to work with. We were so pleased with her ceremony and felt honored to have her preside over our marriage. We would recommend her to anyone that is looking for a beautifuo and memorable ceremony of any faith or interfaith ceremony!

I received numerous compliments on Christobel's services, especially because of her "to die for" British accent; it just adds an extraordinary romantic feel to the ceremony!

A+++ in my book, and definitely recommend her!

Christobel is absolutely wonderful! I was an out of town bride (1800 miles out of town to be exact) and Christobel took care of me like I was a local bride! She is so incredibly kind and she really takes the time to get to know you to craft the...
perfect ceremony. The ceremony she created for my husband and I made me cry so many tears of joy..it was just SO beautiful. And on top of her talent, Christobel is just an amazing human being. After the ceremony, so many people came up to me to tell me that they loved Christobel as a person and an officiant. She is also a wonderful source for a good laugh :) I cannot recommend her enough. If I could give her 20 gold stars, I would! Thank you, Christobel for giving me the best wedding ever!

Thank you Dear Elizabeth "Thank You" for this wonderful review. I was thrilled to be a part of your wedding day celebration. Working, if you could call it working, with you was amazing from the very beginning.
You are such a sweet person. We w...
ill all have such fond memories of your wedding day. It was so touching when you both said your ring vows,Oh My! There was not a dry eye in the house.
Sending you lots of love as you go forth hand in hand to start your new life together as husband and wife <3
Cristobel was the best officiant we could have ever had. She is very passionate about her job, and brought the right amount of energy into our wedding that was needed. She was also very helpful with vendor recommendations as she helped us find ...
a photographer close to last minute who turned out to be great! She has plenty of different options as far as the ceremony, to choose from, and each are beautiful and very original, which I think made our ceremony better because it matched our personalities, rather than just having someone read the usual format out of a book. She has a very fair price for her services and is totally worth it. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone! My husband and I are happy to of had her perform our ceremony for us on one of the most important days of our lives. :)

Hello beautiful bride,thank you for your sweet review. I am honored.
We had such a beautiful wedding and also some fun added to it.
Your new life has now begun, "To love is to come together from the pathways of your past and then move forward....
..Hand in hand, along the uncharted roads of your future, ready to risk, to dream, and to dare.... And always believe that all things are possible with faith and love".
I am excited for you as you go forward with the one you love the most.
Thank you for allowing Weddings by Chritobel to be a part of your beautiful wedding.
I love you both very much.

I contacted Christobel about officiating at my ceremony but unfortunately she was not available. I was shocked by her reponse time- literally minutes within me submitting my inquiry, she told me she was not available. It's great to have vendor...
s respond so quickly so you can move on to the next in line. Christobel did not leave me empty-handed though. She was extremely professional in recommending some of her peers in the area. Not only did she give me their names, but she went ahead and contacted them on her behalf!! Before I could even send an email to them, then had already contacted me. Wow! There really are good people out there. Thanks, Christobel! I'm even more sorry now that you are not able to officiate my ceremony! True professional who goes above and beyond her duty.
Christobel was amazing! From the moment I met her she was ready and willing to help put together the perfect ceramony for me and my now husband! If I had any questions I knew she would be there to answer them. When it was time for my wedding Co...
ordinator to come into the picture Christobel had no problem working with her. Our wedding day was one to remeber! I loved being able to work with her to put together everything in a way that represented us and our life. I was so happy with the way everything turned out and would definitely recommend her.

Thank you Dear Amber for your wonderful review.
You are amazing also. I have always said I have the best couples in the world to marry. Your wedding was precious with the children being involved. A day to be remembered and cherished for yo...
u, your husband and your children. Thank you for allowing Weddings by Christobel to be a part of your special day.
I love you <3
We originally booked another officiant who was hired based upon the contingency that he would facilitate our rehearsal. Three days before the rehearsal he called to say he booked a wedding that day and wanted us to move our rehearsal up by two ...
days. Despite numerous conversations, he was unwavering. I reached out to Christobel in the slim chance she was available. To my shock, she was!
We had called a year prior but had been booked, the couple cancelled and we happily booked her. Christobel invited us to her house where she reassured us, demonstrated her services, got to know us, and tailored her service to reflect exactly what we wanted on our special day.
Christobel was punctual, professional, genuine, and patient. Christobel was detail oriented and made our day so incredible special. She brought her own supplies and met with the groomsmen and bridal party prior to the wedding, day of. After the wedding we had friends and family approach us for weeks afterwards to tell us how wonderful the wedding was, and how amazing our officiant was. We are eternally grateful to Christobel for making our day so incredibly special, in a way no other officiant could.

Dear Katie,
Oh my what an awesome reviews. Thank you so much. However, without the two of you none of this would have never been possible. I am so honored that I had the privilege of being your officiant at the wedding of your dreams,and thril...
led to see you marry the one whom you love the best in the whole wide world.
I will never forget seeing your Daddy sitting there wiping the tears from his eyes as you said your vows to one another. A moment of time never to be recapture and treasured for a life time.
Thank you again for your touching words. I love what I do and I love you both dearly.
Fondest Love,

Christobel did such an aamazing job with our ceremony. It went so smoothly. I loved how she meet up with us months before and gave us 3 different ceremonies we could chose from or mix up to make our own, and the idea for blending of the sands...

ecious than they were. It was amazing!! I love you all and am looking forward to seeing some of those photos. Lots of love to you all <3
Christobel performed our ceremony on 3/19/16 and it was the BEST decision we could have ever made!!! She is PHENOMENAL!!! She worked with us to get our vows and ceremony perfect! We wanted a customized ceremony that was personal and emotional. ...
It definitely was! The words brought grown men to tears! I am still receiving so many compliments on the ceremony and Christobel! Everyone fell in love with her. If we would have picked any other officiant, our ceremony would have been the same run of the mill vows that everyone always hears. Our ceremony was special and one of a kind. Chriostobel was an absolute joy to work with and she will always hold a special place in our hearts!

it was very important that we found an officiant who would be easy to work with from a distance. Christobel was great and made everything as simple as possible. We could not have chosen a better officiant and are honored to have been Christobel's first rainy day wedding!!
