Congratulations on your engagement! As a Celebrant, I help you achieve a creative vision for your wedding ceremony. I love helping capture and craft the sweetness of the unfolding of a couple’s public commitment. Whether simple, secular, spiritual, inspirational, or religious, it becomes a moment to cherish forever. I consider words as poetry, capable of lifting the moments of your nuptials, however embellished you wish them to be. I consider my job to be that of support, inspiration, and incorporating vows and traditions to meet you where you wish to be when you exchange your vows. I help you enjoy planning the time leading up to your day, and provide a unique opportunity for an economical and coordinated wedding.

About me and my services

~ I’m a JP welcoming all loving couples, based in North Branford, Connecticut and will travel anywhere in the state as well as New York, Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

~ As an ordained minister I offer sacred rituals to honor and fit any belief systems, traditions, cultures or faiths.

~ For those unsure of where to begin or feel overwhelmed as to where to start, I created an online Ceremony Component Form. This helps to narrow down choices and appealing aspects of a ceremony. This enables an overview of possibilities I am available to help you decide on.

~ I encourage you to take as much time as you need to communicate, with a commitment to being responsive during the journey up until your wedding day to ensure you are absolutely delighted with your ceremony.

~ I work closely and help coordinate with other vendors to help ensure you are as relaxed and present as possible, to the joy of your wedding day. I can also recommend other vendors whose work I’ve admired.

~ I love to hear of your unique love story, helping you to brainstorm, or as I like to say, heartstorm, and tune in to capture the essence of what is most precious about your togetherness.

~ As a seasoned musician who has sung at hundreds of weddings, I offer heartfelt music before, during and/or after your ceremony, in order to add an extra level of personalization and emotional impact to your day. Whether you decide to include music or not, celebrating your wedding is done with warmth and caring engagement. I can share song ideas that have heightened many a heartfelt ceremony.

~ I am willing to adjust my fee to help you fit your budget. A 50% deposit holds your date, with the balance due one month before your wedding date.

~ I’d love for you to consider a free consultation in person, Zoom, FaceTime or on the phone.
