More Than “I Do”: Why Choosing the Right Officiant Matters

There’s a moment at every wedding—right before the vows, when the world seems to hold its breath. The guests quiet, the couple locks eyes, and love takes center stage. As a wedding officiant, that moment is my favorite. It’s where the magic lives, and I’m honored to help bring it to life.

Officiating a wedding isn’t just about reciting a few lines or signing a document. It’s about holding space for two people as they step into one of the most meaningful moments of their lives. Whether it’s a traditional ceremony, a whimsical woodland vow exchange, or something in between—I work closely with each couple to create something personal, heartfelt, and true to their love story.

Over the years, I’ve had the joy of officiating ceremonies for all kinds of couples: childhood sweethearts, pandemic partners, second-chance soulmates, and spontaneous elopers. Each one brings something beautiful to the table. Some write their own vows, others ask me to weave poetry or storytelling into their ceremony. I’ve laughed, cried, and cheered alongside couples and their families—and each time, I’m reminded why this work means so much.

I don’t just want your ceremony to be legally binding—I want it to be memorable. I want your guests to feel something. I want you to feel seen and celebrated.

So if you’re planning your big day and searching for someone who will treat your ceremony with care, creativity, and intention—I’d be honored to be part of your story.

Let’s create a moment you’ll never forget.
