Searching for a
Wedding Officiant?

Then you've come to the right place.

Of everything that goes into making your wedding day special, it is the ceremony that you and your guests can remember most.

Your wedding ceremony should be an expression of the Love the two of you share. It is my privilege to help you express your own spiritual feelings and Love in your wedding ceremony.

Faith or Denomination

No matter what faith you followed as a child or adult - as a Catholic, Protestant, Jew, Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu, or no particular organized faith - you have been blessed you with the gift of Love for life with another  and that should override any other consideration - different faiths, different cultures, previous marriage.

Nothing should get in the way of you having the wedding of your dreams, a special moment to be remembered for a lifetime!

Marriage Prerequisites? 

And what about prerequisites or problems that you think may impact whether I will feel you are "fit" for marriage? Forget them all except those required by local, state, and federal law (if you choose a legal union as well). You will find no roadblocks here.

If you are in love, if you feel that you are meant to be together for life, then nothing else matters. I know that for many of you, this is a great relief.

Marriage Officiating Questions

Here is an example of the issues and questions that couples share with me that we resolve:

• Our families are of different religions, we are just spiritual, how do we create a wedding ceremony that will please the families and still honor our feelings?
   

• We are Catholic but because of divorce, we cannot get married in the Parish. Can we have a Catholic-style ceremony and have a wedding that our parent's will appreciate and be comfortable with?
   

• We want a traditional ceremony but the location is non traditional. What can we do to make this wedding perfect, even if its in a hotel conference room?
   

• Can we have just a short spiritual ceremony but provide all the elements that our guests will expect?
   

• We have children that one or both of us are bringing into the marriage. How do we include them in the ceremony?
    

• Can we get married now quietly for our personal purposes and have the ceremony for our family later? How do we do that? Who do we contact?
    

• How do we combine different traditions, such as
  
  - coins, veil, and cording
  - breaking of the glass
  - jumping the broom
  - salt & bread
  - honey & dates
  - drinking a cup of wine
  - table ceremonies
  
  with a traditional service? How can we make this as Catholic as possible with these additions?
