Christobel was incredible! She took the time to create such a beautiful, heartfelt ceremony for our wedding day. It meant the world to us, and we truly couldn’t have imagined a more perfect officiant.
We absolutely loved having her there and are so grateful for the warmth and joy she brought to our celebration.
Christobel was an excellent officiant for our special day. We wouldn’t have wanted anyone else!! She helped us understand the ins and outs of the ceremony and how to go about the marriage license. She was so supportive the few weeks leading up to THE DAY. We were able to communicate effectively with her about anything & everything making the process seamless. She is always patient, caring, and loving. We will be recommending her to everyone we know!
So sweet and such a flawless ceremony!!! We loved her so much and just one of the kindest, most caring people I have met. Our guests loved the ceremony!
Christobel was an absolute dream to work with! She took a considerable amount of time working with us to create our perfect ceremony. It was a perfect mix for myself, who is Christian, and my husband, who is not religious. I felt this would be a difficult task, but with Christobel, it was effortless. She is so kind and loving and truly loves the work she does. Love love love Her!❤️❤️
While planning our wedding there were a lot of decisions that had to be made but one of the fastest ones was picking RevChristobel E. Hanz to be our officiant. Within minutes of talking to her Seth & I knew she was the one we wanted up there with us.
Thank you Christobel for making our day so special you are truly an icon & have been so inspiring!💪🏼
We have gained another lifelong friend and you have been so sweet every step of the way.
We love you and couldn’t have made a better choice!👰🏻♀️💒 💕
Christobel was an awesome guide and made sure we had everything how we wanted. Her ability to blend traditional elements with our personal touches made the ceremony truly memorable. We had to shorten our ceremony on the fly and she did amazing.
She has many ceremony speeches to choose from and is customizable. We received so many compliments from our guests and coordinator about christobel’s ceremony. Her presence and thoughtful words made our day truly special.
Christobel’s was very helpful with the process and making sure we were ready!!
Christobel was wonderful, we planned our vow renewal in such a short timeframe. She was recommended by our venue, after speaking with her on the phone i knew she was the one for sure. She was extremely sweet when i met her the morning of our wedding. She came up with a beautiful script that made both of cry. She is truly the best experience and im so glad she was there for our perfect day. Thank you so much!
Christobel was incredibly caring, the perfect officiant; showing empathy towards the couple and their emotions, her positive attitude was so contagious. She set the most radiant tone for the whole event. Christobel's beautiful soul left a lasting impression on everyone present making the whole wedding an unforgettable experience.
Christobel was the best decision for officiant! She is a very lovely woman, and very friendly and easy to work with from start to finish. She has an incredible way with words as if she was pulling them straight from our hearts during the ceremony. We loved the time she took with us before and after to explain things to us and join in the wedding photos. I highly recommend getting in contact and booking with her.
Christobel, we cannot thank you enough for all you did for our little wedding!
Christobel was such a charming officiant! The moment we spoke on the phone, I knew she would make a wonderful addition to an already magical day! She has the most delightful British accent. From the first correspondence to the "You may kiss your bride", Christobel was pleasant, present and professional!
Christobel came highly recommended by our beautiful wedding venue. We couldn't be more thrilled to have had her be a huge part of our special day!
She literally made our ceremony impeccably perfect! She is forever part of our family. Christobel was such a wonderful blessing not only is she incredibly professional & efficient but also so lively, generous, and genuine.
To say that we were satisfied with her being our officiant is isn't even the tip of the iceberg! We were and are so over joy'd to have had the opportunity for our paths to have crossed in such a special way! She is really the absolute best!
Christobel is absolutely the best Officiant we could have asked for.
She is so outgoing, responds quickly, very organized and has an answer to all your questions.
We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Her,
if we could give her 10 stars we would. Absolutely love her!!
Thank you for everything Christobel ❤️
We have just recently booked Christobel for our special day. From the jump, she has been cordial, caring and intentional. Her willingness to make herself available is one of the most comforting aspects about her! Christobel is sweet and easy going, yet professional and eloquent in speech and written word. She is so much more than an officiant. She is a blessing unlike any other. Her priority is to cultivate a friendly-yet-professional relationship to put you at ease on your special day. Obtaining Christobel as your officiant will not be a mistake!
Christobel was hands down amazing! We were an out of state couple coming to Texas for our elopement wedding with only 10 members from our family. Christobel was able to capture our vision with hardly knowing us and she did wonderfully! She was very kind and generous at our wedding and she made us feel like we were all family. She was also very reassuring and confident in her work, throughout the whole process, which made things easy on me, the bride! We could not have found a better officiant!
Christobel was nothing short of spectacular. Our wedding/elopement was a last minute surprise to our friends and family. Once we found Christobel and told her of our wishes, likes and dislikes, she hit the ground running. Within a day she provided us with many option to customize our ceremony to the way we wanted it to sound. As well as pointed us in the right direction to many photographers, florists, and venues that were willing to also work with us last mintue.
The day of the ceremony Christobel was like family; guiding us through our vows and ensuring everything went off without a hitch.
She truly made our special day a memorable occasion that we probably would not have been able to pull off otherwise in such a short amount of time.
We're very grateful we were blessed with her help and can't recommend her enough.
Christobel did such a wonderful job! Our guests loved her accent and she is a true professional!
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 pleased 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.
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!
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 love 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 married 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.
We were eloping and wanted a quick and simple ceremony. Christobel made our ceremony heartfelt. I laughed and cried.
She was punctual, and kept me well informed. I’d definitely recommend her for your special day. The price was very reasonable too.
I wish I could accurately put into words how special this woman was and how much she contributed to our wedding day. We and our guests absolutely adored her! She was professional, sweet, and funny. Christobel went above and beyond for us and we cannot thank her enough!
Christobel was warm and engaging from the start. She hosted a Zoom meeting and walked us through the entire process. She had many options from various ceremonies and let us custom build the ceremony of our dreams. She was helpful and communicative and was always early! She was informative and empathetic to our needs. We could not have possibly been happier. You could not go wrong by giving her a try.
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 I knew they would). The vows Christobel wrote were so personal it was as if they had wrote them themselves. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for an equally heartfelt experience!!❤️❤️❤️
Christobel is the sweetest! She did an amazing job and made us feel so calm and comfortable.
Christobel was so caring and passionate from the start! She was able to create such a unique and personal ceremony for us. She provided world-class service and made us feel like we had known her for a lifetime. You can tell she truly cares about her couples and making their day exactly how they envisioned. She also ensured throughout the process that we were informed of how to obtain our marriage license, what classes to take to receive a discount, offered to mail the official marriage license, etc. The British accent is always a plus too!
Christobel was nothing less of AMAZING, from beginning to the end of our wedding planning. She was always there for us to help in any way possible and very professional and prompt in her communication to us. She made sure that our wedding ceremony was what we had always envisioned for this special day. We felt very comfortable in having her officiate the ceremony. Her presentation, professionalism, and humor were a big hit with our guest in attendance. A million stars, would recommend :)Thank you, Christobel!
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 complaints otherwise. Very personable, easy to talk to, and also does military discounts! Loved her, definitely recommended.
Christobel was amazing and made our ceremony absolutely perfect! She was easy to work with and wrote the most beautiful and perfect ceremony. I highly recommend her.
Christobel was the absolute best. From the moment we met her we were at ease. Throughout COVID she worked with us every moment and was very accommodating. She added the perfect charm to our big day and our families adored her. I would recommend Christobel to any couple.
I am so glad that we decided to go with Christobel after hearing so many amazing things about her. She is VERY personal and friendly and has the most exquisite voice! She is also very beautiful and really dresses the part. Highly recommended , you will not be disappointed, we loved her!!
Christobel is absolutely amazing and was such a blessing! She gave the most beautiful ceremony and she is very personable and caring. She's so awesome and I will always recommend her to anyone and everyone!
Absolutely wonderful I loved everything about my ceremony, though her mic broke and the one we provided wasn't much better it was still a spectacular wedding ceremony loved it
Couldn't have had anyone else do what Christobel did for our wedding day! Christobel helped make our ceremony personal to us and a little more non traditional which was perfect! Our families just adored her! I look back on our wedding day and we can not get over how amazing it was! Thank you Christobel for all that you did to make our big day so memorable!!!
Christobel was the perfect addition to our wedding ceremony. First, she is just the most darling person you'll ever meet! Second, her accent is charming! And, third, the ceremony she crafted for us was so perfectly suitable to us as a couple. Everyone cried, groom and bride included. We highly recommend Christobel for all your wedding officiating needs! She's a pleasure!
I am speechless when it comes to our ceremony it was absolutely beautiful. Everything we could have wanted Chrisobel incorporated, she’s amazing. She constantly kept in touch with us for over a year as we continue to plan out details. Everyone at our wedding had nothing but good things to say about every detail of the ceremony. We are so blessed to have her apart of our special day!!
Absolutely fantastic ceremony! We loved having Christobel who spoke eloquently and made the ceremony extremely personal. We could never have imagined it go so well, so thank you Christobel for making the day so special!
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 just 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 ❤
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 anniversary 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!!!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Christobel! She is so kind, loving, and supportive. After talking once I felt like we had known each other for years. She not only was our officiant but also a friend. She showed us so much compassion and excitement on our wedding day. She is so joyful and uplifting to have around. Her ceremony she did for us was absolutely beautiful and was exactly what we wanted at our wedding. Have Christobel be a part of your big day!!!
Christobel was absolutely amazing and was such a delight to work with! She was quick to respond to any questions/updates and was beyond flexible when we had to make last minute changes the week of the wedding. We loved having Christobel on this special day, she was fun and comforting and we would recommend her to anyone.
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.
After the first time we met Christobel we knew she was the one for us! She is so personable and electric. She made our ceremony incredibly unique and was open to tailoring it exactly how we wanted it. We love her! You will not regret booking with Christobel, she is FABULOUS at what she does. She’s quite charming as well ;)
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 into a nightmare. Christobel was so sweet, and I am so happy she was able to do our wedding.
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!
After meeting Christobel for the first time both my then fiancé and I knew we wanted her to marry us! She is super sweet and the absolute best!! Her personalized ceremonies were all well written and beautiful. So glad we were able to chose and create our very own personalized ceremony.
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 special to us. It was important to have us to have my sons involved and Christobel made sure that they were not only involved, but comfortable in their roles.
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.
