About Marcia Bravo

Marcia did an amazing job as our wedding celebrant! The ceremony was personal, hit all the right notes and was exactly what we wanted. Marcia made a special effort to get to know us in the months leading up to the big day, which made a huge difference and filled us with confidence that our ceremony was in good hands (meaning one less thing to worry about!!). Highly recommend.

Hi Marcia, Thankyou for being such an ace celebrant at Foluke and Adam´s wedding.  Your deft delivery was absolutely perfect, and many of my friends commented on how professional yet, friendly you were.

What an amazing lady. I just had to put finger to keyboard to let all of you know what a fabulous experience it has been for me working with Marcia the last few weeks. Marcia is not only easy to work with , she is open and has a natural warmth that makes you feel like you have known her for years. If you are looking or someone to tell your love story, include meaningful rituals and create a ceremony that you and your guest will remember. Then look no further, you have found the perfect Celebrant in Marcia Bravo!

We had the pleasure of having Marcia as our celebrant on the day of our wedding and she was perfect ! Even before the wedding, dealing with Marcia was so easy and effortless and she laid out everything from the get go. We really felt she got to know us as a couple !

Highly recommend this amazing and bubbly person as your celebrant !

My wife and I eloped from Hawaii to Spain. Marcia, a photographer, and a hotel that agreed to let us get married on property were the only plans we made. Marcia took care of the rest. We had a wedding that exceeded our wildest dreams thanks to Marcia. There are no words for the gifts that she has. Marcia will exceed your expectations and is someone who is definitely doing her life's purpose. It was sacred, and we absolutely love you Marcia. Even the hotel staff were talking about how awesome she was before we even walked out to meet her:) There's no one else in the world that could have given us that wedding. We are deeply grateful and in awe of who you are and what you did for us.

Mahalo Nui Loa Marcia!!! Xoxo

We had the pleasure of having Marcia officiate our wedding in Spain and would like to thank her for the attention to detail she went in to get to know us as a couple and write such a beautiful script for our ceremony, it was a beautiful romantic ceremony and she captured our love story perfectly, Marcia from minute one of getting to know her was bubbly and full of passion for her job which is one of the reasons we knew she was a perfect fit for our wedding, thank you for helping make our day so special, if you are considering a bespoke wedding ceremony then Marcia is the person for you.

My wife and I live in Florida and decided to elope in Malaga, Spain. When pre-searching for someone to officiate our ceremony, I came across M's page and I was immediately drawn by her picture which was very warm, genuine and inviting. I read on about her services and reviews from others and I knew it had to be her to officiate our wedding. I told my bride-to-be, "I think I found the perfect person for us" and she agreed.

We only had two short months to plan the whole event and from the very first Zoom call, we were 100% sure, we chose well. M was very attentive and quickly understood our love story and how we wanted to portray our love. Her recommendations for a photographer and hair/makeup were spot on and she also recommended a Sand Ceremony which we'd not heard of but loved the concept so we selected that option. So glad we did as M incorporated each of us, including my son who could not make the ceremony because of passport issues.

M also beautifully curated our ceremony script with personal elements of my bride and I's love story that still makes my heart flutter when I watch our ceremony video. She was very patient with last minute edits and it turned out better than we imagined.
Everyone who was there or saw our video, were full of praise on our chosen celebrant.

M has such a great spirit and undeniable energy that was so important in our decisions to have a part of our special day. As fate would have it, we ran into each other on the streets of Malaga a couple of days after the ceremony and invited her to her first American Thanksgiving we were hosting. Amazing time and great fellowship was had by all.

Anyone planning a wedding or elopement in Spain would be truly elated with choosing M to officiate. Her attention to details (even down to your ceremony colors!) and personalization will make any couple so happy and grateful they chose M for their special day too. I wish she was in the United States too because I highly recommend her to all future brides-to-be.

We had the best time in Malaga. Thank you for everything. Vow renewal was just something we will remember forever.

Marcia was incredible from start to finish. She took the time to understood us and our wishes, and was incredibly accommodating!

It was lovely getting to know you M, and thank you again for being an incredibly important part of our special day!

My husband and I reside in Australia and decided to elope in Sintra, Portugal. After an exhaustive search through various wedding agencies with exorbitant prices, I opted to independently find a Celebrant and photographer for our symbolic elopement ceremony. Marcia was the very first Celebrant I reached out to, and right from the beginning, I had complete confidence that she was the perfect fit for our love story.

Marcia exudes a calming and warm demeanor, which even came through during our initial Zoom call. Throughout the planning process, Marcia provided tremendous comfort and peace of mind, going above and beyond to guide us every step of the way.

On the big day, as we arrived at our wedding venue in the Pena Palace Gardens of Sintra, Portugal, we were welcomed by Marcia's brilliant smile and warmth. The script and ceremony she crafted were nothing short of perfection.

We wholeheartedly recommend Marcia's services to anyone looking to make their special day truly unforgettable.

With much love and gratitude,
C & L

Marcia...You are a very caring person, able to speak with people and enjoy what they are going through, I know you enjoy meeting people sharing special moments with them

My partner and I got married last month in Ronda, Spain. The setting was amazing with the beautiful sunshine and the stunning scenery. Marcia was our celebrant and she was outstanding. From the very beginning of our journey the attention to detail was second to none. She wrote a beautiful script for the service and gave advice on our vows. We were in contact regularly so we always felt it was important to her that our day would go perfectly. The service was just as we wanted it and we were really relaxed on the day. Our guests said it was one of the most personal weddings they had been to.
Marcia had to deal with lots of Irish names, I sent her the phonetic pronunciations and she totally pulled it off. Our guests were well impressed. She was also very cool when our ringbearer dog stole the show by barking loudly during the vows, much to the amusement of our guests. The doggie obviously did not want me to marry the love of her life, Shane!
We had the best day with lovely readings and music from family and friends, all orchestrated by Marcia and her gentle humour and an obvious enjoyment in what she was doing. We would not hesitate to recommend her.
Carol and Shane

Marcia was absolutely fantastic from the minute we met her. She presented a beautiful, poetic and thoughtful service for our wedding day. Myself and Amber are truely grateful to have had you conduct our wedding ceremony. Thank you again Marcia Dan & Amber x

Marcia captured our relationship perfectly, the day was amazing and Marcia managed to share that love with our guests. She was great to work with.

Our experience with Marcia was a dream. From our first call, to hugging her to say good bye after our ceremony, she was fun, funny, thoughtful, and careful.  She created an experience full of love and laughter that we will remember for the rest of our lives.

She is a warm-hearted, generous, poet who deeply sees the humanity in the people she works with. She was the perfect officiant for our vow renewal. And she's one of those rare people that I hope we stay in touch with because she's that awesome.

Marcia has been an absolute pleasure to work with so far and I'm really looking forward to her marrying us in November! Marcia has been extremely diligent in checking in with us every month in advance of the wedding (including setting up a WhatsApp chat so we can get in touch with her at anytime with any questions) and has taken the time to get to know us both before the ceremony so that she can incorporate those little personalised touches into our day. The communication has been on point and I'm confident that Marcia will make our ceremony special and tailored to us as a couple. Roll on November!

M was incredibly lovely, accomodating and easy to work with. When you're organising a wedding on the other side of the world you want to minimise headaches and stress, M communicated well, kept us on track and made sure the ceremony was perfect without needing any direction. M was the perfect celebrant for us and we would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding in Spain.

I have known Marcia for many years, (face behind hands when I think how long ago), as my line manager Marcia was always there to listen and speak openly about anything. I have very fond memories of someone who led by example and demonstrated courage and great communication skills. I am so happy to see Marcia take on this great role and believe that anyone who entrusts her to share their special day will be privileged to experience the many talents that Marcia has alongside her warm nature.

My husband and I decided to celebrate a wedding in Spain with our friends and family, and after a Google search for a bright, bubbly and fun celebrant, we found Marcia and instantly knew she was the person we wanted to officiate our wedding. Marcia made everything comfortable, easy and relaxed in the run-up to the day even though I was often very late with my answers and requirements..... . And the day Marcia didn't let us down, Fun lovely bright and cozy just what we wanted. Thank you very much for brightening our day Marcia all our love Jacqueline and Simon

M was one of the first suppliers we booked and one of the best. We have had endless comments on her friendly nature, engaging ceremony and her ability to capture us as a couple. M created a ceremony that was uniquely us and no request was too difficult, even including a card game in the middle of the ceremony. Her friendly and professional nature helped bring us out of our shells and create a wonderful ceremony that we will cherish forever. She was so professional and welcoming to all on the wedding day. The wedding was slightly delayed and she took the time to go round every guest and introduce herself and before she left did the same to say goodbye. This personal touch was felt by all, thank you for making the day so perfect. We would highly recommend M to anyone planning a destination wedding in Spain. She was a star and absolutely fantastic throughout.

Flexible, person centred, committed to proving people with the celebration they want, articulate, confident, experience of public speaking, organised

I was so happy to hear that my lovely couple, Jocelyn & James, had chosen Marcia to be their celebrant at their wedding in Hotel Vivood, Alicante. I had never worked with Marcia before but after looking at her website and social media I could see seeing her level of expertise and  professionalism were extremely high and also that she takes great care in creating meaningful, 100% personalized ceremonies which is something I always recommend to make the day even more special and memorable for both couples and their guests.

After our initial contact, a few months before the wedding, it was evident that working with Marcia was going to be a pleasure! As the day drew nearer we had a few conversations regarding the sound system, the ceremony set up, coordination of music etc and we worked as a team to ensure Jocelyn and James's ceremony went smoothly and was everything they dreamed of.

One thing I really enjoy when wedding day comes around is getting to meet suppliers and form new relationships. I met with Marcia the evening before the wedding as she was staying in a hotel just a few minutes from where I live. We reviewed the ceremony together to make sure all was clear then we had a nice chat to get to know each other and we could have talked away all night....I now consider her one of my wedding besties and I am looking forward to working with her again in the future! 

Marcia was such a beautiful, easy going person, we had a lovely connection as soon as my Husband Andrew and myself met her x She took us to lovely locations in Malaga where we could renew our vows, nothing was too much trouble for her . Our special day was lovely, we couldn't have been happier x the readings were so special and Marcia did us proud xx Looking forward to meeting up with you next year for a meal, drink and a catch up xxx lots of love to you ❤

Marcia you can really sense and read people including their vibes and style; transforming feelings and expectations to deliver a ceremony that is magical and ceremonial

I am a destination wedding photographer based in Spain and Marcia is one of the most professional wedding celebrants which I could work with.

We had the most wonderful wedding ceremony with Marcia officiating. Her kindness, her warmth and easy manner ensured we had a very special day with our family by our side. We would like to thank Marcia for taking the time to prepare such a personal service and making our day one we will cherish ❤️

What can I say, only…book Marcia!!  Marcia officiated our wedding in Seville, and everyone was blown away by the ceremony.  It was perfect, exactly what we wanted.  Marcia is so kind and easy to work with, and she seamlessly transitions between English and Spanish during her ceremony.  She captured our 11 year love story perfectly.  Thanks again for everything.

Marcia made our ceremony a unique and special moment that we will never forget! From the beginning, she understood our story perfectly and focused on what makes us special as a couple.

Marcia has a knack for storytelling and found the perfect way to pass ours on to our friends and family in two different languages. Our ceremony was bilingual, in England, and the mix of English and Spanish was unbeatable. All attendees felt included and told us that it was one of the most unique ceremonies they had ever attended!

At all times, from the months of preparation to before and after the ceremony, Marcia made us feel that we were in the best hands. She is a great professional and, in addition, a charming and very attentive person. We couldn't have chosen a better officiant!

We was very happy with the service Marcia gave us. She truly is an amazing and sincere celebrant and takes the time to get to know you both and then the outcome of her written service is excellent. All our guests were very impressed and enjoyed the whole service. My husband and I definitely would recommend her. Marcia has a great and bubbly personality and makes you feel so comfortable. For us A++++

Marcia did an incredible job performing our ceremony. Understood our journey, was super patient and attentive to our request. Marcia wrote us a beautiful script, which she gave to us as a little gift. Thank you Marcia for your service!

Marcia and I have known one another for nearly 30 years now.  For many of those years we worked together and I can honestly say it was a pleasure and privilege to be able to do that.

When she told me she´d become a celebrant I couldn´t think of anyone else I know who would be better to give the communities she is committed to the support they might want or need.

When we worked together, I always found her calm, considerate, thorough, creative and thoughtful.  If Marcia says she´s she´ll do something you can rely on her.

Over the years we worked together I can´t ever remember her judging anyone by anything other than what they asked for and whether she could deliver it (and she invariably did).  The staff we worked with adored her as did our clients.

She has a smile that lights up any room she walks into, an infectious laugh that picked up a gloomy Monday morning office back to feeling positive and ready to go and a sense of style that was inspiring.

I could always rely on the fact she´d have listened carefully and helped someone work out what they wanted to do rather than telling them what she thought was best.

Whether you´re looking for someone to welcome a new baby or new young person to your life, whether you want someone to help you celebrate your partnership or if you need someone to support you through planning for the funeral of a loved one Marcia is the person I´d go to.  She´s a star and I´m proud to say that we worked together and to be able to call her my friend.
