Why choose me as your officiant?
I would say because you will get a person who wants to help make your wedding day as special as possible, by starting out with a ceremony that is meaningful for the two of you – one that reflects your values and hopes for your future. With decades of experience living a married life and appreciating the gift of commitment and growth that ensues, I feel called to help couples young and old as they begin their life journeys together.
Drawing from my experience in liturgy and retreat and program planning, I am happy to provide a ministry of service to help create a wedding ceremony that will be spiritual, secular or somewhere in- between that will meet each couple’s needs and desires.
I have resources available to help you choose readings, rituals and wording for the different aspects of the ceremony. If desired, I will give a reflection. Our meetings, interactions and your questionnaire answers will help me better understand how you came to be and what you hope to be as you start your new life together. I am happy to pass that message on to you and your guests as part of your ceremony.
Whether the setting is in a venue, in a church, or outdoors, weddings are about love. It is my privilege to be your officiant wherever you choose to get started.
I can provide marriage preparation information that we can discuss together and I am available for additional sessions. I am not a licensed counselor but I have had training as a Marriage Preparation Leader.
