Planning a wedding can be stressful. I can help walk you through every step of the ceremony. I enjoy creating a meaningful, memorable, fun and personalized ceremony just for you that represents your personalities, style, beliefs and love story.
 

I do not issue marriage licenses. You will need to obtain one from a county clerk’s office prior to the ceremony.  I would be happy to walk you through the process and answer any questions you have.
