Rings are an ancient symbol, blessed and simple. Round like the sun,
like the eye, like the arms that embrace. They are also the symbol of
truth, love, and life, which have no beginning and no end. Love
that is given freely comes back around again and again.

"Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself.
Love possesses not nor would it be possessed;
For love is sufficient unto love."
~fr. The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran

Getting
married and in need of a minister?
It’s common to not know who to ask to be
your minister these days, when. . .
* neither bride
nor groom has a ‘church home’
* bride and groom want to blend traditions
* bride and groom are blending families
How do I work?
We
schedule an interview during which we talk about what’s most important
to you. I will discuss with you your desires and preferences.
I can show and tell many choices/options and/or we can
start fresh. Together we will determine what you want for this
very special day of your lives. After interviewing you, I
can write the actual vows for you, or we can collaborate or you can
write you own. I am here to support your preferences.
Ceremony preparations typically include . . .
*considering the setting: church/ garden/ home/ other?
*selecting special music, if important to the couple
*selecting inspirational or personally meaningful readings
*defining what to include in vows, if not traditional
Philosophy:
EVERYONE
should have their own ceremony designed to fit them as a couple.
Just as every individual is unique with unique/different
preferences and personalities, so, too, is every couple a unique and
wonderful combination of personality and preferences. I grasp the
essence of the couple and find resources to match. I work with
you so the ceremony will reflect the flavor of you two as a unique
couple. I WILL make it a memorable event that you can look back
on with warmth and pride.
Being a non-denominational minister
allows me the freedom to combine creativity with a reflection of your
essence into a ceremony that is pleasing, meaningful, and memorable.
Important life passages, like marriage, are the perfect opportunity to
put into words, music, and ceremony the heartfelt sentiments and
significant poetry/music that are you and are a reflection of your
relationship. I offer unique and wonderful personalized
ceremonies to those ready to enter matrimony.
