My particular areas of expertise include...

 

✨ Non-Religious & Spiritual-But-Not-Religious Ceremonies

​

For couples who don’t connect with traditional religion but still want a ceremony that feels sacred, soulful, and deeply personal. I specialize in creating heartfelt, human-centered rituals that honor your values, intentions, and unique love story - without invoking specific deities or doctrines.

​

✨ Alternative & Offbeat Ceremonies – Witchy, Gothic, Whimsical, Nerdy, Fantasy, Fandom-Inspired

​

Love isn’t one-size-fits-all, and your ceremony shouldn't be either. Whether you want to tie the knot under the full moon, wear horns and a cloak, recite your vows in Elvish, or incorporate your favorite fandom into your ceremony, I’m here to make the extraordinary feel sacred. These ceremonies are for the lovers who revel in the magical, the macabre, the playful, and the powerfully personal.

​

✨ Ceremonies Inspired By Cultural & Spiritual Traditions – Pagan, Wiccan, Animist, Celtic, Druidic, Norse (Ásatrú and Heathen), Hellenic, Roman, and Kemetic

​

Rooted in ancient wisdom and modern reverence, I honor and celebrate earth-based spiritual and religious traditions with respect and authenticity. Whether you're looking to invoke the elements, call upon your ancestors, celebrate the turning of the Wheel of the Year, or weave in rituals from your own cultural heritage, I create ceremonies that feel rich, connected, and alive with meaning.

​

✨ Elopements, Commitment Ceremonies & Vow Renewals – Including Non-Legal Handfastings

​

Whether you're stealing away for an intimate "just the two of us" elopement, reaffirming your love after years of growth, or choosing a lifelong bond outside of traditional marriage, I craft ceremonies that honor your journey and your truth. From intimate seaside elopements and spooky cemetery vows to heartfelt handfastings that celebrate your soul connection, each ceremony is tailored to reflect your intentions and your story.

​​

Every ceremony I create...

​

... is fully customized - woven with your preferences, ideas, and personal touches. Whether you’re looking for something lighthearted and fun, deeply spiritual, or rich with symbolism and tradition, I will work with you to ensure your ceremony reflects who you are. I am especially passionate about working with LGBTQ+ couples and those who may not see themselves represented in traditional wedding spaces. Love is love, and every couple deserves to be celebrated authentically, without expectation or limitation.

​​

As part of your ceremony... 

​

... I can incorporate as many unity rituals and symbolic celebrations as you’d like - there are so many possibilities! Some examples include handfasting, a sand ceremony, unity candles, whiskey blending, jumping the broom, a quaich or loving cup ritual, a unity painting, an oathing stone, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich ritual, or even a sword exchange. If you’re drawn to the idea of including a meaningful ritual but aren’t sure what fits best, I’m always happy to offer suggestions and help you get creative.

​

Beyond officiating...

​

... hiring me means you’ll benefit from my years of experience in wedding and event planning - along with insider tips if you're traveling to Salem for a destination wedding or elopement. Not only do you gain access to my "planning brain," but I’ve also spent countless hours curating recommendations for trusted venues, vendors, and service providers. Whether you need a caterer, bartender, florist, bakery, photographer, videographer, DJ, lighting expert, event rental service, hair and makeup artist, or pretty much anything else, I can help connect you with the right professionals to bring your vision to life.
