weddings for everyone
I welcome you as you are - just as I hope you will welcome me too.
As an officiant (and as a person) I aim to exist and work in a way that affirms you and your identity. Whatever your reason for choosing to marry, in whatever way that looks to you, I'm here for it and for you! I come with no agenda other than to make your ceremony what you want it to be and to support you and your day in a cared for way.

I aim to make the basic act of getting married accessible to all - if you have limited means and need someone to help you make it official, please get in touch.
why choose me?
The truth is there are a lot of great officiants who are super pro and caring and will make you a sweet custom ceremony - hooray!
And while I offer all that too, I am here for the folks who want something more...
if you want a meeting that seems like yet another planning sesh but is actually a moment to touch base / get excited / and remember the two people inside of this thing - if you want to place your trust in a skilled artist who will lead you to the sweet spot between ritual and realness - if you want a unique portrait of your relationship that is more than just a retelling of how you met - if you want to enter your wedding day feeling like the person marrying you is a steadfast anchor / intimate witness / old pal / + hypeman all in one - if you want a seasoned guide who reminds you to breathe + eat (so you don't get hangry) + be yourself + is here for the introverted as much as the extroverted - if you want your ceremony to be the part of your wedding your guests can't stop talking about - if you want an officiant so over the moon to be a part of your world that once your wedding is over they will sit in their car eating a burrito (aka their feelings) unsure of what to do with all the emotions but feeling sooo happy to have known you
...I might be the one for you!
what else should we know?
- I work in response to each couple - no templates!

- I offer freedom to create + refine to your taste

planning your ceremony
Some people know exactly what they want for their weddings. Others may feel bound by what they think a wedding should be. If we choose to work together, you'll have my assistance in unravelling what you do and don't want, and brainstorming a ceremony that is wholly representative of you.
Depending on the type of ceremony you choose, we'll connect via email, online call, or in person to go through all the details. I'll walk you through more personal questions so that I can get to know you as individuals and as a team. Once I have a sense of who you are and what you're looking for, I'll draft a ceremony and together we will fine tune it til it feels just right.
the big day
For many, their wedding day goes by in a flash. And what we end up remembering is rarely the material things but the feeling we were left with. We remember the love that radiates between two people and the effect it has as it echoes out, touching each and every person who chooses to gather around them.
As your wedding officiant, I am here to help you focus on that feeling and make your ceremony exactly what you want it to be. It can be an elopement over donuts in your living room, a glam extravaganza, or a small to do with your nearest and dearest at the pub. There is no one way to get married - whatever your two hearts desire is the path to follow and what I will help you fulfill.
