I'm excited to celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month with this wedding edition post!
It's a tiny glimpse of Latinx/Hispanic wedding professionals using their gifts and talents to serve couples across Sacramento / Northern California.
If you would like to recognize other Latinx/Hispanic wedding pros or businesses, tag them below so we can cheer for them and highlight their work.👏🏽

This post is not meant to be exhaustive because truly there's not enough space to include everyone (which is a good thing, it means there's many ☺️)
My intent is merely to spark engagement around so let's celebrate, support, and appreciate!!!

I'm here for your love stories 🤍✨️

Hello lovelies! I've been getting many inquiries for dates that I'm booked and no longer available. To be mindful of your time as you search for your wedding team, I thought I'd post this and update my website to highlight my limited availability for 2023.
Please contact me asap if you're considering my services for 2024!
If you need me for a date I'm no longer available, and want recommendations for other native bilingual officiants, send me a DM.
Best of luck and joy in your wedding planning journey!
Yours truly,
Norma

My officiant style is not for everyone and that's okay! There's a vendor style for everyone, it's all about finding the right match.
But if you're looking for what I offer, and you identify generally with the following, then we might be a good fit - and I'd love to connect!
♡ ♡ ♡
We're a good match if YOU
● Can't wait to walk down the aisle and say "I do"
● Are excited to share and celebrate your love story
● Want your ceremony to be meaningful and intentional
● Appreciate attention to detail
● Welcome ideas and collaboration
● Appreciate responsiveness from your vendors

Be yourself! Sounds cliché but it's the truth.
My 2023 vision is to be more accepting of the little things that make me "weird" and to tap into the magic I know is in me 🌌
💍 So as you start thinking of how your ceremony is going to look and feel like, keep *yourself* at the core and center! Lean into your magic.
For example:
Are you a family-oriented person? Incorporate them in your ceremony:
✨️ Have both sides of the families exit the ceremony holding hands
✨️ Invite your parents to participate in the unity ritual
✨️ Include words of gratitude in opening remarks
✨️ Use a family heirloom
Are you both into Disney? Weave it in!
🤍 Add quotes from your favorite movie to the ceremony
🤍 Make Disney-inspired vows
🤍 Do a Disney unity ritual (i.e. colors, theme, props)
It's a liberating experience when you create a ceremony true to you 💐
Make sure your officiant gives you room for authenticity and creativity.

What's a bilingual ceremony?
(Español en los comentarios)
I think I should first start by telling you what it's NOT ⤵️
🚫 it's not a word-for-word translation of English to Spanish (or vice versa)
🚫 it's not a long and boring ceremony structure
🚫 it's not annoying for your bilingual guests
The way I structure your bilingual ceremony makes it so that ⤵️
✨️ there's a nice balance of both languages
✨️ there's a beautiful flow between Spanish and English
✨️ everyone feels included in your ceremony without it being distracting to your monolingual guests
✨️ your vendors receive important cues in their preferred language
I specifically chose to market myself as a bilingual officiant because on your wedding day, you shouldn't sacrifice your family feeling included 💕

Friday means bobba tea day for me. It's my ritual to get the weekend started. I usually order a large earl milk tea with mini bobba, coconut jelly and 50% sugar. I love that they allow me to customize my order however I want.
And if I can customize my bobba drink, you bet you can customize your wedding ceremony too. As your officiant, I want you to feel validated and confident in how together we make your ceremony script. I'll even let you taste it, I mean, see it before your wedding day!
You'll be just as excited about your ceremony script as I am that today is bobba tea day.
