Rev. Bonnie Nixon is known as a minister with warmth, and professionalism, and a willingness to do whatever it takes to make your ceremony reflect your spiritual and religious needs. Rev. Bonnie also respects the fact that you may want a civil or non-religious wedding, with no mention of any religion. This attitude continues to result in exquisite and memorable ceremonies for brides and grooms each year.


No Wait Weddings
If you have your license and need a place to get married give us a call.  We get so many calls from couples that have been turned away from the county offices.  The County can not marry you the same day you purchase a license.  You need to make an appointment often one week in advance. 

So if you have gotten the license and now need an officiant we can help.
We marry couples on the spot no waiting 7 days a week.

Always call first so we can fit you in.
 
Reverend Nixon's Services

You should have no surprises at your wedding ceremony. You should know and approve of what is going to be said. Your ceremony is about you, the bride and groom, not about the minister. We are committed to working with you to create a ceremony that will mirror exactly what you want. At our initial meeting we will go over my "Words for Your Wedding". This booklet explains all the parts of a standard ceremony. You will be able to put your own ceremony together from the various choices you are give, up to fifteen for each segment, i.e. Vows, Ring Exchange, etc. You ceremony can be "spiritual" without being religious. I can also issue your Los Angeles County Marriage License (see Marriage License section)even if we are not performing your ceremony.  Just call our office for an appointment and see the Marriage License requirements section, and fill out the marriage license application in that section.
We issue marriage licenses 7 days a week.

We have many couples getting married who are already parents.  One of my great joys is to perform a ceremony in which two families become a "Blended family".  I have ceremonies/vows to accommodate the "Blended Family" - my childrens’ vows include any children of the bride and groom in the ceremony. I also have words for the Rose Ceremony which gives the bride and groom an opportunity to honor their new mother-in law.

There is no charge for the get acquainted meeting. If you decide at that time to have me perform your ceremony, a deposit is required to hold the date and time open for you. I will leave it up to you to choose the wording for your ceremony from my material and/or yours. I will also include personal touches regarding you as a couple if you desire. I will have the ceremony ready for your review at the rehearsal, if there is one.

My husband and I perform all the Cruise ship weddings here in San Pedro and Long Beach.  If you are planning a cruise Honeymoon you might consider getting married on the ship before you sail.  Another option is the Anchors Away Package©.  See the Destination wedding page for more information.
Professional Wedding Ministers
Reverend Bonnie Nixon
We are the Original Wedding Chapel in the South Bay.  Do not trust your wedding to just anyone, we pride ourselves on being on time and we have never missed an event.  We have been authorized by the County of Los Angeles since 1997 to issue marriage licenses.   

We are one of the top issuers of marriage licenses in Los Angeles County.  This is our full-time passion and we make sure your wedding is special and our ceremonies are from the heart.  We meet with couples in our chapel/office 7 days a week.  You can trust us to handle all aspects of your wedding and the timely filling of the license.  Rev. Bonnie and Rev. David are experienced full time Ministers who have married 1000's of couples over the years. 

There are many imitators and "Internet Ministers" out there so be cautious in your search for the right Minister for your very special day.  If you are getting married in another county there are several great ministers we can recommend.  Give us a call and we will be happy to help you.

Celebrity Weddings
We have married many Celebrities, Actors, Actresses, Models and TV Personalities over the years.  We respect your privacy and you can trust us with complete confidentiality.  We never publish or talk about the couples we marry in private.  For what ever your reason we respect your privacy.  

We also travel to you with the marriage license and can marry you in your home or any location you like with in Los Angeles County. 

Other professions that require a confidential marriage license include Law Enforcement, Judges, Doctors, Lawyers, Teachers, and anyone in the public eye.

The confidential marriage license is the best option for couples on the go.  We can issue it to you anywhere in Los Angeles County.  Often couples fly in and come here right from the airport.  We are 20 minutes from LAX and Long Beach Airports.  We are 5 minutes from Torrance Airport.  

Please give us a call and we can discuss your confidential wedding.

Reverend Bonnie Nixon

ELOPEMENTS

Each week we do a number of "instant weddings" or "elopements" at our Chapel, Cherished vows (www.cherishedvows.com).  Please refer to that web page for more details.  All you need to do is call for an appointment, and we can usually marry you that day or the next.


 

BI-LINGUAL

One of my associates, Rev. Maxine Sealey, speaks fluent Spanish and can perform your ceremony all in Spanish or Spanish English.


WEDDING TRADITIONS & CEREMONIES
Bring traditional elements into your wedding...
If you would like to have a Unity Candle, Sand Ceremony, Break the Glass, Jump the Broom, Lasso, Coins / Arras, Communion, Dove or Butterfly release, Flowers for the Blessed Virgin Mary, etc. we can help you with that element.  Another nice touch is to give a Red rose to each of the new mother-in-law's.

More reasons to get a Confidential Marriage License...
 
♥Are you planning to get married in a foreign country like Mexico, France or Italy?
Some countries have strict requirements and residency restrictions.  Avoid the hassle and get married before you leave. 

♥You and your spouse are the only ones that can get a copy of the recorded license.  This protects your privacy and prevents anyone from obtaining a copy.  So often recorded documents wind up on tabloid websites.  You can avoid this by getting married with a confidential marriage license.

♥Often you do not want a former spouse to know you have remarried.

♥You are planning a church wedding but need to get married now for health insurance coverage.

♥For tax reasons, before the birth of a baby or you are purchasing a home.

♥So you can change your name on your passport before you travel on your honeymoon.  Often brides would like to change their names before they travel so they have the same name as their new husband.  If you are divorced you may not want the former spouses name on your passport, airline tickets etc.

♥You are planning a church wedding here or in your home country but need to start the immigration process.  Get married now and with the Express mail option you will have your certified copy in 2 weeks.  You will need that certified copy for your Immigration appointment.

♥You are being deployed and want to marry your sweetheart before you leave.  To change your Status you will also need the Express mail option.  When you receive the certified copy you present it to your commanding officer.  We offer this for FREE to all active military.  It is our way of saying thanks to all the Armed Forces.
