Marriage is the beginning—the beginning of the family—and is a life-long commitment. It also provides an opportunity to grow in selflessness as you serve your spouse and children. Marriage is more than a physical union; it is also a spiritual and emotional union.
The first day of the rest of your life is your wedding day, where, through your wedding vows, you express the depth of love and commitment to each other in front of your family and friends.
It would be my honor and pleasure to co-create with you a personalized ceremony with vows that are customized to your individual love story.
As an ordained metaphysical minister and wedding officiant licensed by the state of Ohio, I perform ceremonies in a variety of ways and settings:
Traditional / Non-traditional
Non-denominational (mentions God)
Non-religious (no mention of God)
Indoor / Outdoor
Formal to Casual
Large groups
Small, intimate gatherings
I look forward to the opportunity of connecting with you!

Wedding rings are circles and a circle is the symbol of the sun, the earth, the universe, of wholeness, perfection, peace and unity. Like circles, your rings have no beginning and no end and in the sacred tradition of marriage rings have come to symbolize eternal love and the endless union of body, of mind, and spirit.
