About

I am a non-denominational minister who performs traditional, Christian, or non-traditional weddings via my Loganville, Georgia-based officiant service, Your Wedding Your Way. I am also experienced in Pagan and Wiccan handfastings. We specialize in non-traditional and non-denominational ceremonies. As long-time supporters of marriage equality, we are always delighted to work with same-sex couples.

I formed Your Wedding Your Way and pulled together a group of officiants who can perform everything, from black tie weddings to themed weddings (pirate weddings, Halloween-themed weddings, etc.).

We are also available for vow renewals, civil ceremonies, and commitment ceremonies as well. I understand your desire to make your wedding into something that reflects you and your partner.

I can help you make it exactly what you want. Working together, we can make your special day a true reflection of the two of you and your unique love story.

Your Wedding Your Way allows you to completely customize your wedding, from your own vows to the sand ceremony or even a custom unity ceremony. Do you want a Cocktail Unity Ceremony, a Tree of Life, or a Wine Box Ceremony? No problem...we can create a special Unity Ceremony that truly reflects your personality. Whatever you want, we can help you make it happen.

Patricia is wonderful!

Patricia is literally so wonderful! She truly went above and beyond to help us with putting together our ceremony. We asked for very specific details for our ceremony and she 100% went above our expectations. Our ceremony was beautiful and we couldn’t be happier. She has become part of the family. We highly recommend her to anyone who needs an officiant for their wedding!

Your Wedding Your Way is the most accurate vendor name there is!

Patty was a pleasure to work with and wrote so many lovely options for our ceremony! Working through the small wording choices ended up being an incredibly fun experience in our planning. Shanti' performed the ceremony with so much passion and joy and made the unexpected but welcomed rain during our ceremony such an unforgettable experience.

Great Officiating Pair!

Patty was fantastic in helping us customizing our wedding ceremony to our desired wording. The packet she provided gave us many options that really helped us make it our own. Grant was her provided officiant for the ceremony and he was punctual and professional. I'd definitely recommend them for others.

Patricia is Magic!

It was wonderful working with Patricia Burgess. She Officiated our April First 2023 wedding and was such a pleasure to work with. Patricia came to visit us twice before our wedding so that we seem like old friends on our wedding day. Patricia's process of providing vow choices is brilliant. She provided us with a book with hundreds of options to choose from which worked well for us as we just picked our favorite parts and took out what we didn't want to use. She was also receptive to whatever needed to be changed. On our wedding day we got great feedback on our ceremony and I would attribute its success to Patricia. Everything felt personalized specifically for us and she is a great orator. It was windy so her mic cut on and off but that was not her fault, and the videographer captured everything clearly as we were mic'ed up. Patricia sent our marriage license and followed up with name change instructions (just in case) via email after the wedding. Please Hire this woman. She is excellent. You know its about more than just money with Patricia and it is evident that getting to know couples before their big day and making sure they have a beautiful wedding ceremony is of the utmost importance to her. Thanks Patricia for taking care of us. We are so grateful to you.

Happy wedding couple!

My long time partner and I finally decided it was time to legalize our union last December. We found Patricia online and were thrilled that she could accommodate us so very close to the Christmas holiday! Patricia walked us through everything and made us feel very comfortable. I would highly recommend Patricia and her team to any couple looking for a wonderful wedding experience!
