Frequently Asked Questions

 

How do we begin working with you?

​

We begin with a conversation — just a gentle chat about your story, your vision, and what matters most to you. From there, I guide you through the process, so your ceremony feels effortless and entirely your own.

 

What types of weddings do you officiate?

​

I officiate all kinds of ceremonies: Traditional weddings, Non-traditional, themed weddings, elopements, intimate gatherings, vow renewals, LGBTQ+ weddings, Interfaith and multicultural ceremonies. If it matters to you, it matters in your ceremony.

 

Can we include special rituals or traditions?

​

Absolutely! Your ceremony can include any meaningful rituals, whether traditional, modern, or entirely your own creation:

​

• Handfasting – binding your hands together with ribbon or cord, symbolizing union

• Rose Ceremony – exchanging a single rose as your first gift to one another

• Unity Candle or Sand Ceremony – blending two lives into one.

• Ring Warming – passing your rings among loved ones for their blessings

• Wine Box or Love Letter Ritual – saving a message for the future to open together.

• Jumping the Broom – honoring heritage and family traditions

• Tree or Plant Planting – symbolizing growth and nurturing your marriage

• Personalized Vow Exchange – with guidance or full support

• Wine or Beer Blending Ceremony – modern twist on unity symbolism

• Family or Pet Blessings – including those most dear to your hearts

• Sand or Water Mixing Variations – creative, visually symbolic options for blending your lives.

• Custom Rituals – creating a unique ceremony element that reflects your personalities, hobbies, or passions. If there’s a ritual that calls to your hearts and isn’t listed here, we will make space for it — because your ceremony should feel entirely your own.

 

Will you help us write our vows?

​

Yes. I can guide you with prompts, examples, and gentle coaching to help your vows feel personal and authentic. You may choose to write your own, or I can help weave them seamlessly into the ceremony.

 

Do you travel for weddings?

​

Yes. I would be honored to travel to your location, near or far. Whether it’s a backyard, a forest clearing, a mountaintop, or a destination wedding, I am happy to come to you.

 

How far in advance should we book?

​

I recommend reaching out as early as possible — ideally 6–12 months before your wedding — to ensure your date is available and we have time to craft something truly special.

 

However, if your hearts are calling for a last-minute, romantic ceremony, don’t worry — we can make that happen too. Love doesn’t wait, and neither should your story.

 

How do we reserve our date?

​

Once we’ve connected and confirmed your date, a simple agreement and deposit secure your spot. The deposit is required and non-refundable, as it covers the time and care I dedicate to crafting your ceremony. From there, we begin shaping your words, your story, and your moment together.

 

What if we want a vow renewal instead of a wedding?

​

Vow renewals are sacred and deeply personal — whether it’s been one year or fifty. I approach them with the same care and tenderness as a wedding ceremony, creating a moment that reflects your shared journey.

 

How can we reach you?

​

The simplest way is to fill out my contact form. Share a bit about your story and your vision, and I’ll respond personally, with care.
