2022 was a year full of love and light as a wedding officiant performing wedding ceremonies in Oklahoma.

This is the second year in a row that I hold the number two spot for the top wedding officiants in Oklahoma City, OK via Wedding Rule.

This year, I consistently performed large wedding ceremonies that accommodated guests in the 200 - 300 range of guests. All of these weddings were bilingual weddings that I had the honor to perform.

I also traveled more than any other year before to new up and coming wedding venues and familiar venues within the wedding industry. The wedding industry in Oklahoma is one of a kind and I've enjoyed being a part of it for the past 13 years.

The list of cities I visited:
Ardmore, OK,  Blanchard, OK,  Chickasha, OK, Edmond, OK, Yukon, OK,  Mustang, OK, El Reno, OK,  Muskogee, OK,  Norman, OK, Newcastle, OK, Tuttle, OK, Purcell, OK, Shawnee, OK, Tulsa, OK, and all over the Oklahoma City metroplex and downtown OKC is where I frequently marry couples.

I am proud to be a bilingual wedding officiant that serves my community in both English and Spanish in the OKC metro.

I’d like to thank family and friends for referring me to their newly engaged friends and for trusting me to be their wedding officiant for their special day.

Thank you to all my vendor friends within the Oklahoma City wedding industry that continue to refer me as well.

To my brother David, thank you for always being so supportive throughout every facet of life.

To my mom, I could not have made it this far without your love and support throughout my evolution and growth as a bilingual wedding officiant in Oklahoma. I owe all of my success to you, as you instilled in me self-discipline, self-love, self-care, and resilience in all chapters of life. That I should always do things from the heart and to always do my best.

You helped pave the way for me to believe in myself and use my abilities to help and serve others selflessly, while still going after my own goals and dreams. Thank you for believing in me. I love you mom, you are my shero.

Last but not least, I am repeatedly grateful to be booked a year ahead. I am looking forward to performing wedding ceremonies throughout Oklahoma in the year 2023.

With gratitude,
​

The young couple are high school sweethearts and wanted to get married on their anniversary.

Family and friends traveled with them from Austin, TX to Oklahoma City, OK to join them on their special day.

The young couple shared heartfelt vows and are excited to begin their new chapter.

Best wishes to the happy couple!

Review from mother of the groom:
“We looked everywhere for a wedding officiant and could not find what we were looking for until
when we found you on the internet. It was a no brainer that we wanted you to marry our son and daughter-in-law. May God bless you for all that you are doing within your community. You are highly gifted and talented with your work.”

Jorge Luis and Zaida of Yukon, OK had an intimate wedding ceremony at their home.

There is something so special about saying your "I Dos" in the comfort of your home, where special memories are yet to be made.

Wanting to make their day extra special, the couple had family members travel from Virginia to join as they became one.

Jorge Luis and Zaida's wedding ceremony was focused on love and the joining of two hearts.

Best wishes to the happy couple!

Review from the bride: "Thank you so much for our lovely wedding ceremony. Your love for what you do shines brightly."
