Sam Does Weddings 

5.0

  • Offers 9 ceremony types
  • Starts at $850
  • Serves Venice, CA

Born in Australia, lived in Scotland, I've now been in the US for 10 years, I presided over my first wedding in 2016. Being asked by two of my oldest friends changed my life forever. But I was crazy nervous. That first ceremony elicited something inside of me I never expected. I LOVED, love! I had a feeling of pride and community I'd never experienced before. More and more friends asked me to officiate their weddings over the years until I finally said "frick it, maybe this is my thing." Becoming an officiant has been one of the most rewarding things I've done, experiencing your marriage ceremony with you is now something I look forward to.

I can't recommend Sam Does Weddings enough!! He was the perfect officiant: kind, humorous, patient and most of all understanding! From the moment we chose Sam, he was always available and had genuine care and consideration for our relationship. He took the time to truly understand us as a couple and beautifully captured the essence of our relationship in the ceremony. We wanted a short, unplugged ceremony with the perfect balance of humor and heartfelt moments, and Sam delivered exactly that. He crafted a service that actually felt like us - not generic or overly formal, but filled with love and authenticity that resonated with everyone present. Throughout the planning process, Sam was incredibly helpful and responsive. He gently guided us to ensure we were hitting all the right notes while still giving us the flexibility to make the ceremony our own. He shaped and refined our own telling of our story into something truly special. I still get giddy thinking about when my husband and I read our ceremony script over a glass of wine at dinner! Though what truly sets Sam apart is his attention to detail and thoughtful touches - he even came prepped with a sneaky shot of our favorite drink for both of us right after we said "I do" which was MUCH needed (iykyk) If you're looking for an officiant who will take the time to understand your unique story, respect your wishes, and create a ceremony that perfectly reflects who you are as a couple, Sam is your person. We are, and always will be forever grateful to him :)

Hi, I'm Lilian Argueta—a proud Guatemalan American, native Angelina, and the heart behind L+A Union Ceremonies. I’ve always believed in the power of human connection and the importance of honoring it with authenticity, care, and soul. I’ve been a certified officiant since 2017, and my path to this work has been anything but traditional—in the best way. L+A stands for Luz y Amor—light and love in Spanish. It’s more than a name; it’s a belief system. I believe we are all energy, all light…and when two people come together in love, something truly magical happens. That magic deserves to be witnessed and celebrated with intention & creativity.

L A Union Ceremonies were the perfect officiants for our wedding. From our first interaction, the communication was thorough, thoughtful, and prompt. The officiant, Lilian, took the time to learn about our whole relationship history in order to craft a truly personalized and meaningful ceremony. She was extremely helpful in translating our vision into an expertly executed reality, ensuring each section of the ceremony felt intentional and special. Her attention to detail and dedication to making our day perfect was evident throughout the entire process. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant to help us celebrate our love!

Married By Renne Wedding Officiant 

5.0

  • Offers 8 ceremony types
  • Starts at $550
  • Serves Venice, CA

What I love about being an officiant is getting to know my couples. What their hopes and dreams are as individuals and as a couple. What they like about each other, what their favorite things they like to do together, and what makes them a couple. Putting all those things together in a memorable wedding ceremony is my passion. My ceremonies are always as individual as my couples. Every relationship is special and unique and I enjoy creating and sharing how you both got to this day, this moment. Your Story. The Best Love Story. Ever.

Working with Renne was just lovely. From our first meeting, she was so warm, down to earth and easy to talk to. She immediately had us feeling at ease with her genuine care. Our wedding ceremony was a perfect story of us and our love story. She managed to capture the uniqueness and beauty of our relationship and our loved ones were in tears. It set the stage for such a meaningful celebration. She printed out our ceremony and vows and we keep them in our wedding box. We open it every year and read it together as a way of reflecting on our love and remembering our values and promises we made to each other. We are so grateful for the way Renne made our wedding ceremony perfect for us and how she is still a fixture in our story a little each year.

From the moment we met, she was warm, professional, and attentive to our needs. She took the time to understand our love story and incorporated personal touches into the ceremony that made it truly memorable. The delivery was heartfelt and sincere, capturing the emotions of the day perfectly. She spoke with such grace and eloquence, making our vows feel even more special. Throughout the ceremony, she maintained a calm and reassuring presence, putting both my spouse and I at ease. Not only did she perform the role flawlessly, but she also went above and beyond to ensure that everything ran smoothly. Her attention to detail and organization were truly impressive.

As acclaimed love storytellers, they have mastered the art of creating personalized, meaningful ceremonies for over a thousand couples. Based in Orange County, they travel throughout California and to destination events.

We cannot recommend Ryan enough.From our first conversation, he exceeded our expectations in every way. Communication with him was always easy, thoughtful, and professional. When we first started looking for an officiant, we assumed it would be a one size fits all experience but Ryan and his wife completely changed that perception. He took the time to really get to know us, and because of that, he created a ceremony that felt incredibly personal, meaningful, and true to who we are as a couple. His attention to detail and genuine care made our wedding ceremony not just a formality, but one of the most special parts of the entire day. And as a bonus in the words of my husband “presentation was sharp” Ryan looked great, carried himself with confidence, and brought the perfect energy to our big day. Thank you, Ryan, for making our wedding unforgettable. You helped us start this new chapter with love, warmth, and a ceremony that truly reflected our hearts.

He just had a wonderful energy and aura about him that made it very easy to connect. His great personality just naturally puts smiles on people’s faces. Despite traveling far, he arrived exactly when he said he would so you could count on him to be punctual and professional. We loved how he personalized our ceremony, and he did an amazing job letting our guests really feel connected to our love story. During our reception, so many of our guests told us how much they loved him. We are more than happy with the outcome of hiring Danny. He exceeded our expectations, and that is saying a lot because both of us could be a bit of perfectionists. We highly recommend him to anyone and everyone. You are in good hands with him.

She gave our guests a beautiful explanation of our love for each other, and included a “couple therapy-esque” meeting to get to know us before the wedding, and ended in me having happy tears expressing my love towards my husband during such a stressful time. She gets a 10 out of 10 from us! Make sure you book her for your upcoming wedding!
