About

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!

Amazing Personalized Wedding Ceremony

We absolutely loved having Sarah as our wedding officiant. The ceremony that she created was perfect, and was an absolute joy to listen to an be a part of. Our guests couldn't stop telling us how much they enjoyed our ceremony, and many even said it was their favorite part of the entire wedding. I would highly recommend booking her package that includes the 3 meeting sessions prior to the wedding. Sarah made these sessions incredibly fun and relaxed, while also taking the time to understand our relationship and what we wanted in our ceremony. Through these sessions, she was able to perfectly craft our ceremony to be personalized, meaningful, and entertaining for all our guests. I would 100% recommend Sarah, and we are so glad she as able to be a part of our wedding day!

Perfect Ceremony!

Sarah made our ceremony into a dream! She really spent time getting to know us. She listened carefully to our story, asked thoughtful questions about what we wanted out of our wedding and then put her full heart into writing a perfect ceremony. Our guests were amazed to find out that we hadn't known her for years. She knocked it out of the park and we couldn't be happier!

A truly perfect ceremony!

Wow - we couldn’t have asked for a better officiant than Sarah! She took the time to get to know us (so well in fact that our guests were surprised we hadn’t known her for years). Her friendly, warm, personal and professional demeanor is amazing - and her sense of humor is a bonus!

She ensured we had an absolutely beautiful ceremony that was such a beautiful representation of us and our love. She made us (and our guests) laugh and cry.

If you’re looking for an officiant that will give you a personalized and heart full ceremony, I Couldn’t recommend her more!
