Planning a wedding in Paris is all about elegance, emotion, and creating unforgettable memories. But beyond the venue and the flowers, one essential choice often gets overlooked: your officiant.
I’m Efren Prieto, a professional male wedding officiant in Paris, and I specialize in creating meaningful symbolic ceremonies for international couples who choose France for their dream wedding. Whether you’re eloping beneath the Eiffel Tower or celebrating in a château, the right celebrant brings everything together.

Why Couples Choose Me as Their Paris Officiant
1. A Calming, Confident Presence
As a male officiant, I bring a grounded and warm energy to the ceremony. I know how to center the moment, guide couples through emotional vows, and hold space when nerves run high.
2. Deep Experience with Destination Weddings
Most of my couples are foreigners coming to France — from the U.S., the UK, Canada, and Asia. I understand the logistics, expectations, and cultural nuances of symbolic weddings abroad.
3. Your Ceremony, in Perfect English
I officiate exclusively in English, with a clear and professional delivery. I also speak Spanish, but all ceremonies are designed for English-speaking couples from around the world.

No boring scripts. No stiff traditions. I work closely with each couple to write a ceremony that reflects who they are — inclusive, emotional, and modern.
5. Ideal for LGBTQ+, Blended, or Intercultural Weddings
As a trusted celebrant in Paris, I create non-religious, inclusive ceremonies for couples of all backgrounds, genders, and beliefs.
