Past CP Brides--who was your officant

Who was your officiant?  Anyone who you recommend?  I like the officiant who did Natedawgs wedding (Congrats again, you were stunning!)Smile

    Mine was Michael Ligette. (I can never remember the spelling)  I had never seen officiate a ceremony before mine, and have never seen one since.  He was wonderful though.  I can link the video of my ceremony if you want to see him in action.

    Olivea that would be great.  Do you want my emailed address or will you PM it to me? 
    I've heard the ceremony is only 15 minutes, but when I saw Natedawgs was a little over 7 mins.  I guess it all depends on what you want said.  :-0)
    I really appreicate this, thank you.  Laughing

    Mine was a civil ceremony and lasted only 8 or 9 minutes.  Religious ceremonies might be a bit longer if you incorporate readings.

    Here's the link:

    I had Brian and thought he was great. I think our ceremony was about 15 minutes from start to finish. We had a civil ceremony, incorporated some of our own vows, and 2 readings. I think Brian is the one in all of the youtube videos of CP weddings and don't feel like they really do him justice. I don't have our video uploaded though, when I figure out how to do that I'll put it in my bio.

    ETA: Brian is the officiant in Natedawg's video.

    :)

    I sent an email to Shani at CP to ask the name of my officiant. I'll let you know what I find out!

    can you request an officiant?  because i really loved Olivea12's entire ceremony...he did an amazing job!

    Thank you Ebonyivory!  I would Love to see your video. 

    Thanks Natedawg! 

    TheKnot and Knottie have been SO helpful

    I know who I DO NOT want as my WC, I know who I will request for my WC, I know I want the Juno Garden and I know who I want for the officant.  I feel much more comfortable than ever before.

    Our officant was Leo Gomez, I was pleased with the ceremony. All I asked was that he include a prayer which my dad was pleased about.

    I don't think I want the brian guy.  I prefer Olivea's..if i do end up with him i will definitely ask him not to say 'we are gathered here today in the beautiful Caesars Palace, las vegas, nevada...." that bugs me lol

  • edited December 2011
    Aegrish-I would see if you can request Oliveas officant.  Smile 

    I have to get with the FI to see if he prefers a wording over another.  :-0)

    I've missed you.

    We went with the one that comes with one nights stay in a tower room.  Not sure which one that is...Roman maybe?  We are using our own florist & have a photographer for before/after the ceremony, so the package with 2 nights stay didn't have anything more we really needed.

    Nice, I'll email you once i get home.

    oops, you may be right. I remember his last name b/c it's my last name.
  • edited December 2011
    Oops, I just noticed I spelled your username wrong, olivea, sorry! =/ But I'm glad I could help solve the mystery of his last name. =)

    I believe you mentioned him in a previous CP post too, and I tried to google him and found nothing... and come to find out I've known him all along! Too funny!

    i emailed a request for Olivea's officiant - i was told they'll put in the request, but it can't be guaranteed.
  • edited December 2011
    Amandajean--I hope you get who you requested.  Also once you get your video I'd love to see it.  I found only 1 JUNO garden wedding on youtube and it was VERY windy that day and I would like to see and hear it on a calm day.  :-)
