Meet your Los Angeles Officiants
Vincent (he/him)
Officiant
Vincent hails from the great state of Florida, and yes (!) everything you heard is true, sorry .
He is a bit of a nomad at heart, having resided in Washington, DC, Chicago, and Los Angeles over the years.
Vincent brings his training as an actor and writer to his work as an officiant, making sure your ceremony reflects your personality and values, just as you imagine. If you are struggling with your imagination, he will help you tell your story right! Vincent also grew up in Catholic church/school and spent many hours in trouble with administration, so if your ceremony needs a religious touch, he can oblige. Vincent’s style is as loose or buttoned up as you need, but expect a mix of sincerity and levity as he helps celebrate two people who chose each other.
When Vincent is not officiating weddings, he loves to read, make comedy, pet animals, ride his motorcycle, and spend time in nature. In addition to his BA, Vincent holds a Business of Entertainment certificate from UCLA.
Sam (He/him)
Officiant
People and access to health care is the name of the game for Sam. He is lucky enough to combine these two passions into his career in healthcare. His job consists of making healthcare more culturally competent for diverse communities and loves doing it on a daily basis. These days his work is mostly focused on the homeless community, LGBT youth, and people with disabilities.
When he isn’t working, you will find him exploring new cultures and sharing his own. He originally sought to become an anthropologist during his college days due to his fascination with culture. He regularly takes friends to Mexico to share the country’s history, eat new dishes, and to practice his native language of Spanish with locals.
As a best man, he saw firsthand on how difficult it was for his best friend to find an officiant that would meet their needs. For this reason, when approached to join the Liz Rae team, Sam responded with an enthusiastic “Yes!” Sam’s drive for culture and passion for people gives him a natural curiosity to learn more about his clients to tailor the perfect ceremony.

Will it be worth it?
Just ask these folks.
“While we like to think that we were the stars of our wedding, Vincent absolutely stole the show with a ceremony that perfectly blended sentimental moments with down-right hilarious one liners. Almost every guest approached us afterward commenting how it was the most moving and entertaining wedding ceremony they’d seen. When we first explored using an officiant service, our biggest worry was that it would feel impersonal or forced. The final result couldn’t have been further from the truth. Vincent and Liz Rae used a really unique process to gather meaningful anecdotes and funny stories from multiple points of view by engaging our parents, families, and friends. Vincent then went above and beyond to get to know us and our love story – including spending time over lunch in Los Angeles! We are so appreciative of all the work Vincent put into the script, process, and delivery and will treasure the memories from what we too felt was the best ceremony we’d seen.”
