🌟 Hey there, new friends and those who have been supporters for a long time! 🌟

I’m Carla, a professional wedding officiant based in the vibrant city of Chicago, with ties to the sunny St. Pete/Tampa area in Florida. I specialize in crafting and performing custom, creative wedding ceremonies for couples who truly value their special day. 💍✨

When I’m not officiating weddings, you can find me fostering adorable cats and kittens 🐱, knitting or crocheting cozy creations 🧶, and spending quality time with my loved ones. And if you ever want to chat about baseball, I’m your person – I can talk about it for hours! ⚾️💙🤍❤️🤍🖤⚾️

I'm so excited for the 2024 wedding season and can’t wait to help make your day unforgettable. Dates are still available, so let’s connect and start planning your perfect ceremony! 💖

🌠 One of my dreams is to officiate a Chicago celebrity wedding – who knows, maybe someday! ✨️💫💞

If someone you know is getting married please pass my information along and if you have questions about your ceremony, please reach out.

Thanks for joining me on this journey. 🥰 I can’t wait to share more about my wedding adventures and passions with you all!

Cicadas aren't around for long, so they prioritize one thing: finding a partner. 👀

Males put the call out for females by "singing": by vibrating a pair of ridged membranes called "tymbals" found on their abdomen, they create a buzzing sound that lets females know they're ready to help make the next generation of cicadas. 🥚 🪰

When cicadas sing near each other, their chorus can reach 90 decibels—that's about as loud as your hair dryer or city traffic passing by. 📣
