Bloomer-Diaz Wedding

wedding officiant

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you for the first time and for always, Mr. and Mrs. Diaz!

Jared and Amanda united in marriage near the shore of Lake Michigan on the grounds of the historic Kemper Center in Kenosha. Surrounded by their children and loved ones, their day sparkled with joy in the summer sun. It was an honor for me to help Jared and Amanda have a sweet and sentimental ceremony. I am so happy for this beautiful family!

Enjoy a few excerpts from this special ceremony below.

Today, in the presence of these witnesses, Jared and Amanda are ready to be united as one family. May you know in your hearts that your loved ones gone before you are also watching over this union with love and joy, especially Jared’s parents, Joe and Adelle. Their love is with you always.

It has been a beautiful journey to this moment. What started on the coldest night of the year in January of 2024 has led you to this hot summer day- your wedding day! From campfires to concerts and at least three proposals, your love story is solidified with great times full of love and joy.

You both agree that together is your favorite place to be as you enjoy the adventures of life and love.

Jared said, “I love the way Amanda looks at me. She is so steadfast in her love for me, and I want nothing more than to be with her.”

Amanda said, “Jared just being Jared made me fall in love with him. He is determined, caring, and kind, and I adore him.”

May this truly special love you share be modern enough to survive and thrive through the ever-changing years and old-fashioned enough to last forever.
