I can officiate in any setting you like...whether it be in a House of Worship, Outdoors, Catering Hall, Home, Office, or anywhere else in a formal or casual setting for any number of guests. Your Wedding should be as Simplistic or as Elaborate or as Elegant as you Desire.  

Please call or e-mail for additional information.

Blessings and Peace!

Being a non-denominational, Interfaith Officiant, I have no requirements for you to meet in order for me to perform your wedding.  I bring no agenda to your relationship.  I am grateful for the opportunity to honor you and your beliefs. 

There are no “rules” that have to be followed in creating your ceremony.  You have the freedom to create and personalize the ceremony of your dreams. 

I want you to know that I am:

© Someone with whom you can feel comfortable and will not judge you. 

© Someone who will help you to personalize your ceremony according to your needs and desires. 

© Someone who is open to letting you include special readings, poems and music of your choice. 

© Someone who will not deliver a sermon unless requested. 

© Someone who does not require premarital counseling. 

© Someone who publishes his fees and is willing to sign a contract.

Most couples are not aware of the various options they have to choose from as they plan their ceremony.  Here are some popular ceremonies:

© A traditional wedding for couples who don’t belong to a church

© A traditional ceremony, but in a outdoor setting that their minister would not perform

© A ceremony that honors both party’s faiths and/or cultural heritage

© A very private and simple ceremony

© A civil ceremony with no hint of religion

© A contemporary and intimate ceremony for couples who are middle-aged and marrying for the second time

© A wedding incorporating children in a blended family

© A theme wedding e.g. Celtic Handfasting (Wiccan) Ceremony

© A ceremony performed at a significant time or location honoring a special interest. (on a boat, at the break of dawn, at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve)

My rates are extremely reasonable and competitive, starting at $100.00 for a simple Civil Ceremony in my Home Office or Backyard under the decorated Wedding Arch. Most other ceremonies have an average price of $350.00. Depending on locale, the cost could be higher.
