ABOUT OUR OFFICIANTS

Mona & Dan became certified Virginia Wedding Officiants in 2014 and we’re also licensed Notary Public agents. As Civil Marriage Celebrants we’re not religious officials or clergy, but we treat everyone with love and respect and we’re happy to include prayers and traditions that are meaningful to you. We work to be the best and most reliable officiant service around, work with you to create your ceremony your way, serve as your legal witness and file your completed license for certification (we check “civil” ceremony for all licenses we file).

At Ciao Bella our officiants like to ask the couple if there’s anything special they would like to include “last minute” when we check in before the ceremony. Usually, we add an anecdote about something each person loves about the other, how they met, how they arrived at this moment, etc., but one bride last fall asked for a gentle tease of the groom to be penciled in and it led to this.
