Yalenis officiated our wedding in July and she was amazing! From our first phone call and zoom meeting to our ceremony, she was so warm, kind and understanding. Our guests even tho...
ught she was related to us or an old friend. She is very versatile; she takes into consideration how religious or non religious you want your ceremony to be and adapts. She also explained every step clearly so that we were never confused and was easy to contact if we had any random questions or concerns. Finding an officiant was a step in our wedding planning we were nervous about but Yalenis really made it easy. Her officiating was amazing, her words really described our relationship and our moment perfectly while making everyone smile and laugh. She really made our special day more special so we highly recommend booking her for your special day.
We cannot say enough great things about Yalenis! From the moment we spoke with her, she was kind, professional, attentive, and she exuded such a genuine and charismatic energy. She...
immediately understood the vision for our ceremony, and she asked us many reflective questions to get to know us better as individuals and as a couple. During the ceremony, she brought us all to tears with her thoughtful remarks, and after the ceremony so many of our guests were shocked to learn that she wasn't already a part of our family. We are so humbled by the love, care, and attention Yalenis put into our ceremony, and how she shared her heart with us that day. She was undoubtedly part of the magic of our day!
Thank you, Yalenis, for making our wedding day so special and unforgettable.

I highly recommend adding Yalenis to your wedding (or any type of) celebration. My wife and i were overjoyed by the positive vibes and energy that she brought to our outdoor ceremo...
ny. We were running a little late on timeline as far as locking in an officiant but Yalenis made the process so convenient and user friendly! I am not the most savvy google doc user but she worked with us in every sense. Our celebration needed a sense of importance, levity, sarcasm, and those special touches that we entrusted an almost stranger to help bring. She 100% brought it all and more. Yalenis was a strong & kind voice in both English and Spanish. Our friends and family appreciated the balance of duel language ceremony that was smooth and to the point for both sides to stay engaged. She saved a special moment on the fly with her written translation ability Yalenis was a joy to work with, listened to our ideas and took our words and made them sound more beautiful than we ever could. Las buenas vibras de Yalenis transmitten mucha paz y fue muy facil trabajar con ella. Altamente recomendada! 1,000/10

able. Not just for us, but for all of our guests.

You wont regret choosing Yalenis as your officiant. I can't recommend enough! 10/10!

how we are as a couple in just a few short meetings, and the script had us in tears! She accommodated our need for Spanish translation, and our guests were very happy they could understand and be included. The reading she chose was perfect, and we appreciated her taking into account our personal beliefs. Yalenis was very sweet, and we knew from the start we wanted to work with her because of her professionalism and warmth she brings to her work. I highly recommend working with her!

ed us in the process of the ceremony draft. She had video calls with us and asked us questions to truly get to know us. That really showed the day of our wedding. The way she described our love, was exactly what we were looking for. We truly felt like we knew her for years. Another aspect that was extremely important to me, was her bilingual skills. Yalenis is an expert at making statements in both languages when is needed. It wasn’t too little nor too much. She also sent our marriage license right away! We got our license in the mail in 2 week! She was by far one of out favorite cendors ! We truly recommend her!! ❤️
Yalenis was a real pleasure to work with all throughout the process! We really appreciated her willingness to collaborate and create a ceremony that fit our style. She was warm, ca...
