Earlier this month, the US Senate confirmed Mr Garcetti's nomination, ending a protracted hiatus of over two years to fill the key diplomatic position.
"I can't wait to serve," Mr Garcetti said, when asked about his new diplomatic assignment.
The ceremony was attended by his close family members, including wife Amy Wakeland, father Gil Garcetti, mother Sukey Garcetti and mother-in-law Dee Wakeland.
