I am a retired University of Arkansas-Fayetteville vice chancellor who enjoys preforming weddings.

Since retiring 9 years ago I have married over 200 couples at more than 60 different venues.

My experience ranges from full-scale, formal weddings, to one-hour-notice informal events.

• I began officiating after retiring about ten years ago from the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, where I served 20 years as Vice Chancellor for Government & Community Relations.
• I have officiated at over 250 weddings.

I am available to assist any couple with a valid marriage license.

LET'S VISIT. I offer a no-obligation, no-cost visit in a Fayetteville, Arkansas, coffee shop with any couple looking for an NWA wedding officiant.
