Award Winning Wedding Officiant
I create beautiful, authentic, and unique ceremonies that reflect who you are and what is most important to you, all with a joyful, respectful, fun, and collaborative approach.
I have been enriched by diverse experiences, a natural curiosity, and a sincere interest in people, which I bring to every interaction with my couples. This shapes the way I create your ceremony. It's crucial to me that your ceremony is a reflection of you, both individually and as a couple, and that it resonates with what matters to you. I approach each ceremony without any preconceived agenda. Instead, I draw inspiration from my couples and aim to mirror your values in the ceremony. This approach allows me to include unique traditions, rituals, and readings to make each ceremony distinctively yours.
Choosing the right guide to lead you into this new chapter of life is crucial. With 15 years as a meditation teacher and over 20 years of practice, I offer a serene, attentive, and joyful presence to your ceremony. It's essential to have someone who not only connects with you but also with all your guests. My aim is to craft ceremonies that touch the hearts of everyone gathered to celebrate with you.
Ultimately, my goal is to create the ceremony of your dreams – one that is beautiful, meaningful, and perfectly tailored to you. A ceremony where your family and friends feel fully engaged and connected, one that surpasses all your expectations! I aim for you to feel recognized, listened to, and valued by me throughout this journey, especially on this significant day of your lives. In the end, I hope you feel supported by me at every turn – assured that I had your back. I feel incredibly fortunate to do what I love.
