Hello! My name is Gwen, and my career centers on love, relationships, intimacy, and spirituality. I have a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology from Columbia University, and I have nearly a decade of experience as an educator, researcher, and consultant in love, intimacy, and spirituality. Couples, nonprofits, and Fortune 500 companies trust me to provide the utmost care for their events.

It is my privilege to support couples in creating a ceremony that's personalized and uniquely meaningful to them. As an officiant, I hold religious and non-religious ceremonies, integrating personal elements such as culture-based prayers, spiritual blessings, and personalized storytelling into each couple's unique ceremony.

You're also welcome to take a look at my writings on love, spirituality, intimacy, and psychology on my Instagram (@gwenwalsh) or blog at www.gwenwalsh.com/blog.

Professional, kind, funny, & flexible

Gwen was an absolute angel and a lifesaver for us. We lost our original officiant at the last second, and Gwen graciously stepped in with just a few days notice, still taking the time to tweak her script to be exactly as we wanted. Beyond her excellent officiant abilities, her energy and kindness made a chaotic day feel peaceful and smooth. We cannot recommend her enough. We will recommend her to anyone we know who is planning to get married.

Gwen Deeply Cares

Gwen deeply cares about providing her clients with the best officiant experience on their special day. She is someone who is not only educated on but also passionate about the human connection and long-lasting love. Gwen performed a Venus blessing of the ceremony space at the bride's request which made the day even more special!

Acadia National Park Elopement

We are incredibly grateful to Gwen for stepping in as our officiant on such short notice for our elopement at Acadia National Park. From my initial outreach, Gwen was highly responsive. She diligently provided her fees and contracts, even with our elopement date being less than a week away. She displayed excellent professionalism throughout the whole process. She was attentive and flexible meeting with us via zoom as we live out of state. She offered wedding script support and asked insightful questions to truly understand our vision for the elopement. Gwen made our elopement experience completely stress-free, and our "I do's" felt authentic and unique. We wholeheartedly recommend Gwen Walsh and are so thankful for how she made our day and ceremony even more special.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
