Wedding Ceremonies--Marriage Renewal of Vows--Baby Blessings
Civil - Religious - Interfaith - Spiritual -Cultural - Children Involvement
"Since 1983, as a wedding minister and officiant, I have regularly officiated a wide variety of expressions--from purely civil non religious to religious; each equally valid and beautiful to me. I maintain an independent and very non-denominational approach that I am told is uplifting for couples and famlies of every faith and persuasion.
Everything I do, from script to rehearsal to ceremony, is only about one thing: a wedding. your wedding, and what would support you two to have a great start as husband and wife, as you would define it. With me, you two would very much be the CEOs, the sole deciders, of your ceremony, including the prayer you want (or no prayer if you're a non-religious couple).
My role then would be a more modern one: your officiant guide, not someone who tells you what is right or wrong for you, who thinks they know what is right or wrong for a couple.
When we start working together, I would email you my Ceremony Starter Kit, a tool which organizes everything. It provides starting ceremonies, vows and outstanding creative options. All you have to do is tell me what you like or don't like (and if you are not sure, I will help you find this out). I make it easy for us to have a beautiful wedding script. I'd want you to be able to read it and say, "This is us. We just love it. This is how we want to start our marriage together."
A wedding ceremony that matches you to this extent will be like none other in the wedding world. It will be perfect for you. On wedding day, your ceremony will not only splendidly touch each of you, it will touch my life as well. But it won't be luck or something that will get us there (although we are lucky, blessed). It will be because it started with the right ceremony concept (about you two) and then what was needed to be done was done and done well. This is how I support couples to have a great start."
