The Chicago Traveling Wedding Officiant, Notary,
Planner & Coordinator for Weddings of All Sizes
At Destin Weddings, we believe love is a gift — and every couple deserves a wedding day that reflects their unique story.
In the middle of busy schedules and everyday stress, it’s easy to forget how meaningful it is to choose your person. Our role is to slow the moment down and help you begin your marriage with intention, calm, and care.
We are based in Chicago and proudly serve couples throughout Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Texas, Maryland, and beyond. The Destin Weddings & Notary Services team provides professional wedding officiating, planning, and coordination services for weddings of all sizes — including marriage license signings, elopements, micro weddings, and traditional ceremonies — all thoughtfully designed to feel personal, meaningful, and beautifully executed.
A Thoughtful, Stress-Free Wedding Experience
Whether you’re:
-
Signing your marriage license
-
Planning a “just us” ceremony
-
Hosting an intimate wedding with family and friends
-
Or celebrating your love with a grand wedding event
Destin Weddings supports couples through officiating, planning, and coordination, ensuring every detail flows smoothly from start to finish.
From ceremony creation to timeline guidance and day-of coordination, every service is tailored to reflect your values, faith, culture, and personal style. No scripts. No rushing. Just a meaningful, well-organized experience handled with care.
Founded in 2021 by Desiree Tinajero, Destin Weddings was created to help couples marry their best friend and begin their next chapter with confidence and peace of mind.
As an Ordained Minister, Christian speaker, and experienced professional with a background in the legal field, Desiree brings clarity and reassurance to both the ceremonial and logistical sides of your wedding day — from planning and coordination to properly handling marriage license requirements.
With over 300 weddings officiated and supported, couples trust Destin Weddings for calm guidance, organization, professionalism, and heartfelt delivery — whether it’s a simple signing or a large, thoughtfully planned wedding celebration.
Bilingual services are available, including Spanish ceremonies.
