About

On WeddingWire since 2023

I love helping couples express their love stories in a personal wedding ceremony. Whether you want a traditional Christian wedding, a civil ceremony, or something brief and simple with just vows and rings, I can help make it happen. Having worked with hundreds of couples of all faiths and backgrounds, I have learned to make the process easy and accommodating for busy schedules.

Whether you are a young person leaving home to start a life apart from your parents or you are in your twilight years, ready to commit to a new love, I can make your ceremony appropriate to this new chapter in your life.

I offer pre-marital counseling by Zoom or Google Meet for couples who want to smooth out some rough spots in their relationship. Topics covered include effective communication, money matters, sex, step-children, how to fight fair, and more. The number of sessions depends on what issues you want to talk about.

I can come to the location of your choice; Your home, a nearby park, a restaurant, a wedding venue, or my home in Stafford, VA.

I am an ordained minister licensed to officiate weddings in Virginia, Maryland, DC, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. If your location is within a 90-mile radius, my fee is a flat rate. Over 90 miles or a 1.5-hour drive is an additional $25 to cover gas costs. I do not travel more than a 2-hour distance (120 miles).

I would love for you to reach out to me so we can chat about how to make your day personal and special!

Highly recommend!

Terry was wonderful! She was very quick to respond and allowed us to fully customize our ceremony script and provided a surplus of pre-written examples. She showed up early to assist with the marriage license and explained everything we needed to know. And an incredible bonus, she happily accommodated our 6am sunrise elopement including a sandy and humid location. I highly recommend her to anyone, especially those eloping!

Professional and Caring

It was so great having Terry officiate our wedding. So was so professional to beginning to the end. She provided templates of different ceremonial ideas for us to begin the brainstorming session. She was flexible making our edits and providing feedback on our additions. We made a HUGE mishap and forgot our wedding license for the ceremony. Terry was able to still perform the ceremony onsite for us and took time out of her personal day afterwards to meet us and sign the paperwork. She was very caring and sweet to work with. We highly recommend her for your wedding needs!
