You’re here because something important is about to begin. I’m glad you’re here.
Ceremony Crafted With Intention
You are not simply planning an event. You are marking the beginning of your marriage. The ceremony that opens that chapter deserves more than borrowed language or a rushed script. It deserves care, structure, and presence.
My role is small in visibility and significant in responsibility. I help you move from logistics to meaning. Whether your gathering includes two hundred guests or two witnesses in a backyard garden, the depth of the commitment remains the same.
I have the privilege of officiating weddings for couples across traditions, identities, and orientations throughout Washington State. I approach every ceremony with the same care and respect for your story and the promises you are making together.
Some couples come to me after experiences that made them feel unseen or constrained. Here, you will not need to shrink your story. Your ceremony will reflect who you are, not who someone else expects you to be.
From intimate backyard gatherings to large celebrations, the scale may change. The care does not.
More Than Someone to Sign the License
A wedding ceremony is not simply the legal step between engagement and reception. It sets the tone for your entire day and shapes how your families witness your commitment. Years from now, that will be the moment you return to as you tell the story of how it all began.
When you work with me, you do not have to guess your way through this part of the day. I bring structure, experience, and steady guidance to every step of the preparation. Together, we clarify what matters most, shape vows that carry weight, and craft a ceremony that reflects your relationship with intention and care.
On the day itself, I am steady and present, holding the room without overpowering it. The moment belongs to you. My role is to anchor it.
From simple elopements to full-scale celebrations, the intention remains the same: a ceremony that feels authentic, grounded, and deeply yours.
How I Will Help You
Whether you are planning on your own or working alongside a wedding planner or coordinator, I integrate smoothly into your plans. My role is not to add complexity, but to bring clarity and steadiness to this part of the day.
If you are navigating the details yourselves, I provide structure and guidance that keep everything grounded and manageable. If you are working with a professional team, I collaborate with them so the ceremony flows naturally within the larger celebration.
On the day of your wedding, you remain free to be fully present. I hold the structure so you can focus on the joy of the moment.
Ceremony options fit a range of celebrations, from simple elopements to larger gatherings. Clear pricing and flexible payment plans are available, and we will discuss what best fits your plans during our conversation.

A few weeks before the wedding, Jim sent us a draft of the ceremony that brought me to tears. It was beautifully written and felt completely like us.
