Well Played Creative offers interfaith ritual, ceremony, and spiritual care in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and surrounding areas.

Hi, I'm Rev. Sarah Donnell, founder of Well Played Creative, and I'd be honored to infuse your wedding ceremony with some creative spirit. I'm trained as an interfaith chaplain to help folks of any faith--and no faith--tradition in the tasks of navigating major life transitions and meaning-making. Weddings and commitment ceremonies are some of the most joyful spaces to do this!

My work springs from my background as a theatre artist, facilitator, and writer, and I use all of these skillsets when crafting and delivering your unique ceremony. My intentions are:

  • To honor the depth of my clients as whole, highly individual people
  • That even our consultation sessions feel like meaningful experiences leading up to the wedding day
  • To help you share, experience, and grow your own love story in this process
  • To support you so that you can feel connected and present amidst the swirl of activity that comes with weddings
  • To deliver a beautifully rendered and engaging ceremony that leaves everyone present at least a little more in love
  • To hold space for big emotions and big magic--and to keep the show rolling, even if the unexpected arises!

I get that this is a highly personal decision, so I'd love to chat with you a little bit to see if we'd be a good fit. I hope you'll reach out!

Perfect for us

We are non-religious people but wanted a ceremony that did encompass some spirituality. And we wanted to feel that the person performing the ceremony wasn't a stranger, either. Sarah was the absolute perfect choice for us. Our meetings with her were delightful, getting to know her and telling our story. She prepared the perfect script in tone, humor and sincerity. Our guests thought we'd known each other for years. We couldn't have asked for anyone better!

The Most Perfect Ceremony

Sarah was an absolute joy to work with. Every step of the way she helped guide us to craft the most perfect ceremony that was most authentic to us. Sarah is so kind, welcoming, and accommodating which made working with her so easy! We knew after our first initial meeting that she was the one we wanted to officiate our wedding. Highly recommend!

Our ceremony was my favorite part of the day, thanks to Sarah!

Working with Sarah to develop our wedding ceremony was my favorite part of the wedding planning process. She gave us the opportunity to check in with ourselves and remember the reason why we were choosing to take this huge step, and helped us incorporate our personal beliefs and preferences into every aspect of the ceremony. The wedding ceremony itself was absolutely perfect in every way - no exaggeration! Sarah couldn't have fulfilled our vision any better, and the ceremony was my favorite part of our entire wedding weekend. Everyone from our guests to our vendors told us that it was hands down the most meaningful and special wedding ceremony they had ever been a part of. Months later, we are still getting compliments on our ceremony! Sarah's presence was so calming and energizing at the same time, and she brought her unique magic to the whole proceeding in a way that allowed us and our guests to really feel and stand witness to the big, deep love we have for each other and our community. I can't say enough good things about Sarah and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking to create a heartfelt and authentic wedding ceremony.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
