5.0 ★★★★★ RATING on The Knot
10+ Years Officiating
Former Alameda County Deputy Marriage Commissioner
20+ Years in Hospitality


I'm fortunate to have been a part of the hospitality industry for more than two decades, having planned both weddings and corporate events. Every love story captured on this website is a couple I've had the joy and honor to officiate for.
My former role as an Alameda County Deputy Marriage Commissioner gave me a front-row seat to hundreds of ceremonies and taught me what makes one feel heartfelt and memorable. It inspired me to create ceremonies that couples and their guests would remember long after the day was over.
Every ceremony begins with a complimentary "get acquainted" meeting, where we'll talk about your vision, your relationship, the marriage license process, and any questions you have. As your Officiant, I'll write a ceremony that's built around your story and delivered in a way that feels genuine and natural.
The Bay Area is one of the best places in the world to get married, thanks to our celebrated diversity and picturesque landscapes — and I've had the privilege of officiating across nearly all of it, from San Francisco City Hall to vineyards in Livermore to gardens in Woodside, and I'd be honored to be part of your day as well.
MY EXPERIENCE IN ACTION
A celebration to remember
This celebration gave me the opportunity to bring every piece together — from planning and event management to officiating the ceremony itself.
What sets me apart
Every ceremony is uniquely yours
Written around your story
Every ceremony is thoughtfully crafted to reflect your relationship, your personalities, and the journey that brought you here.
Experience you can count on
With more than 20 years in hospitality, over a decade officiating weddings, and experience as a former Alameda County Deputy Marriage Commissioner, you'll have an experienced guide from start to finish.
A calm, genuine presence
My goal is to help you feel comfortable, present, and confident, so you can focus on the moment instead of what's coming next.

"After meeting a few potential officiants for our wedding, we chose Saundra because of her warmth, professionalism, and thoroughness discussing all of the details for our ceremony. She thought of every detail, from synthesizing our memories together into a cohesive narrative for the ceremony message…to guiding us through rehearsal. We are so thankful we found Saundra and highly recommend her for any wedding!"

"She was very organized, which made the whole process easy. We filled out a few questionnaires and reviewed the ceremony script together — she captured our love story beautifully."
