About

Congratulations . . . You're Getting Married!

Your ceremony is the heart of your wedding day. Before the first dance, the cake cutting and party, it is the part that makes you husband and wife. Your ceremony is one of life’s most cherished celebrations, a vibrant tapestry woven from tradition, love, and the promise of a shared future.

I began what I call my "labor of love" in 2005 on the beautiful gulf beaches in Florida. I would meet couples and sometimes families and preside their wedding ceremony or vow renewal. I've had the honor of presiding 100's (literally) wedding, elopement and vow renewal ceremonies, on beaches of South Florida, many of which you can see on my photo gallery. In 2014 my husband I made the move to North Carolina which is lovingly call "Home". It is now my honor and pleasure to preside over weddings and vow renewal here in the Triad. Instead of the beach, it's vineyards, estate homes, country weddings on farms and barns, country clubs and many more.

At my core I believe a wedding ceremony should be a reflection of the couple’s love, values, and dreams. My role is to guide, support, and celebrate your union in a way that feels authentic, inclusive, and unforgettable. I view the ceremony as a sacred rite—not necessarily religious, but deeply meaningful. Whether spiritual, secular, or somewhere in between, I tailor each ceremony to honor the unique bond that brought two people together.

Whether it’s a quiet elopement or a grand celebration, I aim to weave your journey into the ceremony so that every word feels intentional and true to who they are.

My packages include:

1) "Forever Yours" ~ Customized Ceremony Including Rehearsal

2) "I Still Do" ~ Customized Ceremony Vow Renewal

3) Virtual Wedding Planning (See my website for what this service can do for you)

4) "Kiss & Go"- Marriage License Signing

The words we say at weddings are like no other. They are spoken from the heart and touch all who hear. They should be meaningful and memorable. You will want the words to reflect your relationship and be compatible with your beliefs. Whether you prefer a sacred or civil ceremony,

I will provide sample vows, readings, and blessings for you to choose from and we will work together to create a ceremony that is unique to you and your love story. Please Visit my Blog Page for updates on package details, new features and timely advice. https://www.everaftervows.com/blogs.

"I am Inspired by Love.That is why I love Weddings. I love the excitement and anticipation a couple has as the bride begins to walk down the aisle and their eyes meet for the first time. I love when the vows are exchanged and the bride (and sometimes the groom) tears us because the words are so beautiful and heartfelt . . . and finally I love the look in their eyes when I pronounce them husband and wife"

No Stress Wedding? Work with "A Beautiful Day by Christina"

Where do I even begin? I was a bride and Christina, Anna, and Melissa were super heroes during our wedding planning process and day of for our wedding 11/17/24. We booked their event coordination package where they come in the last two months and take over a lot of the admin duties to take stress off your plate, but they went above and beyond for us. We had a hiccup early on in wedding planning where we needed to go our separate ways with a vendor, and they managed to get us through that without much fuss or ruckus. Anna was such a joy to work with and was my biggest cheerleader throughout everything!! If I recommend anything post-wedding, it's this. It's so worth it. Thank you, Christina to your team, and Anna. We loved you guys.

Very Romantic

I didn't want want anything too extravagant but yet intimate. Weddings by Christina made sure of that. It was hard not being able to invite family due to the pandemic but with the help of the staff they made me feel very much relaxed and emotionally comfortable with my decision. I truly recommend Weddings by Christina ❤️

Everything was perfect from start to finish!

I cannot say enough how awesome it was to use Weddings by Christina. Christina was always there when I had questions. She coordinated our officiant and photographer and they were both THE BEST! JR Carrel was our officiant and Courtney was our photographer. All 3 of them made things so easy for me and put any nerves I had about the details at ease! The location was perfection, the ceremony was lovely and I just know that the photos are going to stunningly gorgeous. The price is phenomenal and cannot be beat for the quality of what you will get. I will never ever forget my wedding day and it was the best day I could have asked for. Couldn't have been possible without Weddings by Christina! THANK YOU for making my special day easy, beautiful and SO FUN!

I am so thankful for Christina with the help she provided me while I was trying to plan a destination wedding. Very resourceful and responsive when planning from afar. I cannot thank her enough for the time she took to put together every exact detail I wanted for my wedding. Unfortunately, I was not able to go through with everything, but I know that if I was able to it would have all been perfect. Definitely recommend!

Thank you Christina and team :)

Christina and Chris were wonderful to work with for our short-notice elopement! Even under unexpected weather conditions, she managed to make our private beach wedding happen. They are pros. They made the entire process extremely simple, which is just what we were looking for.

Our wedding on Anna Maria Island was a destination event and Chris T. from Weddings by Christina was a dream to work with and helped make our wedding day perfect. We contracted with Chris for day-of organization, but she was also a great resource for vendor references and important detail reminders in the planning process. We had to modify the event location and flow due to weather at the last minute, and Chris was calm, organized, and so helpful in making sure everything flowed perfectly. Cannot imagine what we would have done without her! Cannot recommend her highly enough!

Christina and her wonderful team made our wedding day perfect! Everything from the first time we contacted her through the website to the big day flowed so easily! Christina called/emailed us throughout the planning process to provide tips and help us along the way. Neither one of us had any concerns.

We added the wooden cross to our package. It showed up early and was installed perfectly. Reverend Andy contacted us a couple weeks prior as well as a few days before the wedding to follow up. He also met with us just before the ceremony to discuss any last minute details. He was great! The ceremony was light hearted, biblical, heartfelt and emotional. He included personal information about how we met and fell about each other. He introduced our guests to the ring warming ceremony which everyone loved being a part of! It was exactly what we were looking for! We enjoyed his insight and comfort.

And then there was the photographer, Courtney... she was equally as phenomenal. She met with me as I getting ready. She helped coordinate the kids as they walked out. She was patient and kind. I loved how she incorporated the natural decor around the property into our pictures. We loved her!

This was a fabulous team! We received high praises about everyone working with us from our friends and family. We were honored to have them all a part of our wedding day.

Chris & Kelly Dijak ❤

I had the pleasure of officiating Hannah and Nick's wedding in May. It was an honor to work with the bride and groom. We worked as a team to create the perfect ceremony (I have to give Hannah most of the credit). It was beautiful to see everything come together perfectly for the couple. Congratulation Hannah and Nick! Best of luck to you guys. --Krystal

Weddings by Christina was a great choice for our wedding officiant. Krystal was our actual officiant & she was great! Not only did she do an amazing job, but she was also helpful in picking the wedding vows as well. It will forever be an unforgettable moment!
