I am thrilled to have finished in 3rd Place for the 2009 "Best of Western WA" Best Wedding Officiant!
Dear Engaged Couple,
Hello! First and foremost, I want to congratulate you and your fiance in your decision to celebrate your love for each other.
I am a wedding officiant & non-denominational, ordained minister located in Marysville, WA. This makes me centrally located to serve couples north, east, west and south of me. I am proud to serve couples from Seattle, up to Lynnwood and Everett, heading east to Snohomish, Monroe and Bellevue, up north to Mt. Vernon and Bellingham as well as all the way to the Canadian border to beautiful Blaine and Ferndale and all of the cities in between. I have had the privilege of marrying close to three hundred couples, with the number still growing!
Whether you are looking to celebrate your love through a wedding, a commitment ceremony or even renew your vows years after the day you both said, "I do" I would be honored to be selected as your celebrant. I see it as an extreme privilege to be included, to share in the joy and happiness of your special day.
I see myself as an instrument in the orchestra called your wedding. It is my intention to be that instrument in your orchestra that blends beautifully with the other "instruments", such as family members who are assisting with the details of your celebration, the wedding party, sound technicians, and photographers to help ease the transition into the ceremony. I strongly believe that a couple has enough to focus on without worrying about their celebrant.
I believe that offering all bridal couples my services at a reduced rate allows couples an alternative to flying to Vegas or compromising by scheduling a time at the courthouse, to save money. I feel that each couple should have the option of getting married by an enthusiastic, upbeat officiant without having to spend "an arm and a leg". Besides, I'd rather see you spend the money you save on my services and put that towards a gift to each other!
I also offer all of my couples the opportunity to have a personalized ceremony created that is presented in their celebration. I create each ceremony based upon my couple's personalities, beliefs and ideas. Combining these elements in addition to ideas and suggestions that I offer allow my couples to have much more than a "cookie cutter" ceremony. I feel that all of my couples deserve more. My style is fairly unique because of this; I take the time to get to learn about the couple I am marrying.
Discover through the pages of my website what I can do to enhance your ceremony. You will come to find what I can do to add to your special day. If you are interested in scheduling a time to meet with me or have further questions, please contact me by email at tiffani@upbeatweddingofficiant.com or by phone. Let me bring to your ceremony my energy & enthusiasm and help you create a wedding celebration that truly reflects both your love for each other and your personalities!
Thank you again for inquiring. I am excited at the opportunity to work alongside you and your fiancee as you both begin this wonderful journey!
All my best,
Rev. Tiffani V. Mondares-Riggs
