Preparation for Marriage

I have had the honor of officiating at weddings since 1996. Because I value and respect the challenges and rewards of commitment and marriage, it is my preference to spend a few sessions helping a couple look beyond the wedding ceremony to how their relationship may evolve in marriage. I am trained to use the Prepare/Enrich process as a tool in exploring and deepening relationship.

Each person in the couple participates in an online survey that asks many questions that include attitudes and feelings regarding family of origin, children and parenting, communication, conflict resolution, financial management, role relationship, spiritual beliefs and sexual relationship. The answers are then blended into a report that I have found is a very effective tool to help a couple celebrate their strengths and explore their areas of growth. This process can be done before or after a wedding. Wedding Ceremony Design

My goal is to help you design a ceremony that is distinctly yours. I have resources that help you choose how you want the ceremony to flow and what readings will most effectively communicate your personalities and style. One of my favorite parts is getting to know you so I can write your personal story to include in the ceremony.

Couples often come with differing religious or spiritual backgrounds, or none at all. I am open to including spiritual, cultural or ethnic elements that are important to you.
Here’s what some folks have said:

Our ceremony was a culmination of our feelings and dreams and creativity. . . you helped us fulfill it all! There is not a day that goes by that we are not thankful and happy to have met you.”

We really appreciated our time with you and were glad to have found someone we were both comfortable talking to.

Families and friends often say the ceremony was the best they ever heard, so original and reflective of the couple.


I am authorized to officiate at weddings as a Spiritual Director with the Interfaith Spiritual Center.
