A wedding ceremony that celebrates your unique love story.
Sarah Olivia Photography
Your relationship is the only one like it. No other couple has your exact story, your inside jokes, or your journey to reach this moment of commitment. So why have a wedding ceremony like everyone else’s?
Rooted & Wild ceremonies are non-traditional yet reverent. We’ll get creative and think outside the box. I’ll balance humor and sacredness through engaging storytelling that takes you and your guests on a fun emotional rollercoaster: laughter, goosebumps, and happy tears all in one. My process is in-depth and personalized, allowing you and your partner to reflect and connect with the why of your marriage, not just the logistics of your celebration. Together, we’ll create an intentional ceremony that reflects your unique love story.
Do you want to elope on a mountaintop, in a grove of tall trees, or with your toes in the sand? Maybe you’re surrounded by 100 of your closest friends and family at a beautiful venue? I am an award-winning Oregon wedding officiant and Celebrant, specializing in down-to-earth, inclusive, non-religious wedding ceremonies in the Pacific Northwest and beyond! I am a proud LGBTQIA+ ally business committed to honoring all couples and all love stories.
Together, we can make your ceremony the most meaningful part of your wedding day.
