Ordained as a non-denominational minister, it is my heart's desire to bless your wedding with the essence of your individuality, personality and commitment. I am here to truly listen to who you are, and help you create a ceremony that reflects you both, and also moves those witnessing your marriage to deepen their commitment and appreciation of their own relationships. Couples and their guests always come up to me after their wedding ceremonies, wondering if I have known the couple all their lives. This is a kind reflection of the time I take to create a very personal ceremony for each individual couple. I love to script interfaith ceremonies that respect readings from all backgrounds.

With a background in the church, I can perform spiritual and traditional religious ceremonies, as well as contemporary or non-denominational personal vows you have written for each other.

So much emphasis is placed on pre-wedding parties and the reception, that often the most meaningful aspect of the day is not given much thought.

It is my goal to help you relax and enjoy the sacred union and vows at the core of marriage ... the wedding ceremony itself.

For each and every ceremony, this day should reflect the unique journey of love that has brought you to this moment of commitment.

I also perform vow renewals and baby dedications.

Premarital Counseling:

Studies have shown that premarital counseling enriches the marriage which follows, and helps to ensure that the marriage is lifelong.

I have been trained as a certified counselor in a very successful, scientifically developed and researched premarital counseling program called Prepare-Enrich. Over 2 million couples have completed this fun and rewarding program, wherein couples identify their strengths, and learn tools to resolve any conflicts that may arise in the future.

Counseling usually takes place in a series of 3-5 sessions.
