Molly Johnson | Your Wedding Officiant

Born and raised on the infamously friendly Unama'ki / Cape Breton Island, I'm an islander at heart - sociable, resourceful, a believer in community, and keeper of an ever active sense of humour.

I am a human who delights in the world around me and if you pass me on the street you'll likely find me smiling - at other humans doing beautiful human things, or maybe at a really great rock or particularly chipper bird.

I became an officiant with these ideas in mind - how we connect, how we celebrate the big and small, how we honour the joy and sorrow and love at the centre of it all.

From the east coast, I moved to Tkaronto / Toronto and after making a home there for two decades, in 2024 we settled down in Prince Edward County.

I am truly grateful for the opportunity to make a life on the shores of a great lake, on the rich territory of the Anishinaabeg, Wendat, and Haudenosaunee peoples, and now in relation to the Kanien’keha:ka community of Tyendinaga.

I recognize these nations as the ongoing caretakers of this land, and recognize my own role and responsibility as a settler as one grounded in respect, reciprocity, and allied resistance.

Alongside being an officiant, I'm a professional dance artist and for 20+ years have been performing, creating, and writing within the realms of dance and live performance.

I've performed all over the world and in every kind of scenario you can imagine + I bring all of this experience to my work as an officiant, alongside passion, precision, a strong sense of the big picture, and a deeply embedded ability to listen and transmit what people are looking for.

Whether I'm creating ceremonies or making art, I take great joy in cultivating care and bringing vibes that put folks at ease.

In the space between, I read + garden + cook + eat + think about eating (give me all the tacos), and plan adventures that usually involve being near water.

I am lucky to share life with a very kind fella + old lady cat who sounds like a baby dinosaur and I try to live and act with compassion, a light touch, and gratitude for all this abundance.
