As a professional wedding officiant, I specialize in non-religious ceremonies, pop-up weddings and elopements in Southeastern Michigan for couples who may be agnostic, atheist, humanist, LGBTQ, and those who are just out of the ordinary, unconventional and non-traditional.
Easy Planning
To help make the ceremony planning process as easy as possible, I’ve created this comprehensive ceremony website, providing out-of-the-ordinary, completely non-religious, fully customizable ceremonies. You’ll find sample ceremonies, collections of readings and optional elements to consider.
Meaningful
My ceremonies are couple-focused, and it is always important to me that every word be meaningful and relevant to you. Even short elopements can be a profound and personal alternative to the courthouse.
Personalized
When you find a reading, vows or poem that speaks to you and your individual relationship, and you get that “Yes!” feeling you’ll know you’re on the right track. You can also help me get to know you and personalize your ceremony by answering the “Telling Your Story” questions.
Officiating Weddings since 2009
I am a professional wedding officiant with a tendency toward the non-traditional and unusual. I specialize in custom, non-religious and queer wedding ceremonies, helping couples find the right words to express their feelings and experience a personal wedding ceremony like no other.
When I’m not at a wedding or deep in a conversation, I enjoy time with my family, dog and chickens, gardening, arts & crafts, travel, estate sales, games, reading, and tons of random projects.
