About
Kismet Ceremonies
I’m Linette Ruiz, the Florida wedding officiant behind Kismet Ceremonies.
I specialize in creating custom wedding ceremonies for couples in Lakeland, Tampa, and throughout Central Florida who want something more intentional than a standard script. Every ceremony I officiate is written from scratch—designed to reflect your story, your dynamic, and the tone you want your wedding day to carry.
As a dedicated wedding officiant, I guide you through the entire ceremony process—from structure and vow development to timing and delivery—so everything feels seamless and natural. I don’t just show up and read a script. I design and lead a ceremony experience that feels elevated, personal, and fully aligned with you.
In addition to officiating, I handle all legal requirements as an ordained minister in Florida, including marriage license signing and filing, ensuring your ceremony is not only meaningful but official and stress-free.
Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement or a full wedding celebration, I work closely with you to create a ceremony that feels authentic, polished, and unforgettable.
Serving Lakeland, Tampa, and all of Central Florida

What Couples Are Saying
Real wedding experiences across Lakeland, Tampa & Central Florida
Our beach elopement was everything we dreamed of and more, thanks to Linette with Kismet Ceremonies. From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable and cared for, taking the time to get to know our story and weaving it beautifully into our ceremony. Her words were heartfelt, genuine, and perfectly captured the love we share. Linette’s calming and joyful presence made the day feel effortless and magical, allowing us to simply soak in the moment. We are so grateful she was a part of our special day, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly to anyone looking for a truly meaningful and memorable ceremony.

Linette helped make our wedding special as our officiant. We didn’t want anything over-the-top, just something that felt true and solid, and that’s exactly what we got. Big thanks to Linette for making it stress-free and memorable. Would 100% recommend her to anyone tying the knot.

I wanted to express my deepest gratitude for everything you did for our wedding.
You were such an integral part of our special day, making everything feel seamless and worry-free. I truly appreciate how you handled all the details and helped solidify my ideas into even better ones. You did such an amazing job, and you were truly a godsend throughout the entire process!
I cannot wait to hire you for any future events. Thank you again for making our wedding so wonderful.

Kismet Ceremonies officiated our wedding back in 2022! Linette did a wonderful job! We wanted a simple ceremony that got to the point and Linette did just that! She kept in contact and handled all our random legal/wedding questions. One thing I enjoyed about her service was she came to rehearsal the day before. It helped having her there to piece together all the final details!
