As a devoted wedding officiant, my desire and objective is to compose a beautiful symphony of words/poetry and perhaps music that harmonizes with the depth of love and joy you and your beloved hold dear. I consider words as poetry, capable of lifting the moments of your nuptials, however embellished you wish them to be. I can help you manifest your creative vision for a ceremony you’ll cherish. Your wedding could include whatever vows, traditions and style you choose. Through either religious, simple, secular, spiritual, or inspirational, I work with you to encapsulate your love and desires into your wedding moment, a ceremonial commitment to be cherished. My goal is to inspire and support by incorporating traditional or non-traditional ceremonial components to meet you and your guests where you are. The depth of the joy and spirit I bring with my decades of experience, promises to align with your hearts desires.


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 can 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 after your ceremony 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 in-person consultation via Zoom, FaceTime, or phone.

~ You can visit my website to learn more about me, hear samples of my wedding music, see videos, and see more pictures and testimonials.

Amazing!!!

Debra was so wonderful to work with. She was so organized, thoughtful and professional. She took the time to get to know us and customize a beautiful ceremony that truly fit who we are as individuals and couples. It brought together our story, our family and those celebrating with us in such a memorable and special way. We appreciated so much her generosity of spirit, compassion and her ability to really listen to us as a couple. We felt like she cared about our ceremony as much as we did. We received so many compliments on her services!

Thank you for helping to make our day so special!

The Whole Package

Debra was everything we were hoping for and more when we made the decision to work with her as our JOP. Debra brings a calm and joyful energy to the entire experience from the initial call to through the ceremony. It was important to us to have a true professional for the ceremony and Debra exceeded our expectations. Debra has wonderful stage presence; her delivery was flawless from the projection of her voice to the timing and flow of the ceremony. Debra is wonderfully collaborative and provides feedback and suggestions when asked and is clearly committed to working together to make the ceremony something you will love. Debra came highly prepared with a template of ceremony options that she created based on all of her experience as a JOP. The template was extremely helpful to us in shaping our ceremony to find the perfect balance of classic elements and pieces that we felt reflected our uniqueness. We had so many guests who approached us throughout the night specifically to tell us how much they loved the ceremony and the unique elements we chose to include. Debra is the whole package, professionalism and a joy to work with; communicating with Debra never felt stressful, rather it was part of the planning process that we very much enjoyed! I wholeheartedly and unreservedly recommend Debra.

Very professional and experienced. Debra is fun to work with and together we created our perfect ceremony. We had her sing one of her songs which was amazing and there were a lot of special details that we were able to add thanks to Debra's spectacular organization and responsiveness.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
