At the heart of every beautiful wedding is a love story worth celebrating. I'm Sonja, an ordained wedding officiant and the heart behind the Pixie Nook in Stayton, Oregon. I believe your wedding ceremony should be more than a formality—it should be a meaningful reflection of who you are, the journey you've shared, and the life you're choosing to build together.

My approach blends warmth, personal connection, and a little old-world magic. Whether you dream of a traditional ceremony, a relaxed and intimate gathering, a spiritual celebration, or something wonderfully unconventional, I'll help you create a ceremony that feels authentic to you as a couple.

I offer a range of wedding ceremony options, from thoughtfully prepared ceremonies with personal touches to personalized love stories and more fully customized celebrations. For couples who wish to add a deeper layer of meaning, symbolic rituals such as handfasting and other unity traditions can make the moment even more memorable.

For those who prefer to keep things simple and intimate, The Enchanted Nook offers weekday elopement ceremonies right here at the Pixie Nook—a cozy, welcoming setting for exchanging vows with just the couple and their witnesses.

Every couple is different, and that's exactly how it should be. I take the time to listen to your ideas, learn what matters to you, and understand the feeling you want your ceremony to hold. My goal is for you to feel comfortable, supported, and truly present in one of life's most meaningful moments.

Whether you're planning an intimate elopement or a larger wedding celebration, a ceremony steeped in tradition or one that follows your own path, I'd be honored to help you mark the beginning of your next chapter.

Your love story deserves a ceremony that feels like you—with heart, meaning, and a little magic woven in. 💙
