It’s Your Wedding

Let’s make it a day you’ll never forget

Marriage Ceremony

As your wedding officiant, my one agenda is your happiness. I want you to look back on your ceremony with joy, knowing it was exactly what you wanted. Whether you are anxious to become married or would rather have a commitment ceremony instead, I am here for you. I invite you to participate in preparing your vows and making them personal to you or we can use standard vows. It is truly your day and your choice.

As an inclusive wedding celebrant, I believe my role is to guide my couples through their wedding ceremony and allow them to commit their lives to one another in a way that makes them feel both comfortable and confident. When I create a custom ceremony, I spend a lot of time with the couple in advance in order to understand what they want.

Your wedding can include:

Spiritual or Cultural traditions — I can incorporate your traditions into your ceremony in order to allow you to celebrate your beliefs and your culture.

Readings, Poems or Songs — I can help you select readings, poems and songs that will enhance your wedding ceremony and allow you to feel connected to your future spouse in the moment.

Wedding Rituals – I know that wedding rituals play a prominent role in nearly any wedding ceremony, and I want you to include the rituals that mean the most to you, your family, and your friends. There are so many options available, such as handfasting, oathing stone, love letters, tasting the elements etc. We can even work together to create something unique.
