New jersey and New York Wedding Ceremonies
Laughter, Sentiment, and Celebration
Laughter, sentiment, and celebration should all be a part of the most important words you will ever say, and I know how to work with you and guide you so that your ceremony tells your story with words you will treasure for the rest of your lives. As one of America’s best known wedding officiants and storytellers, I use my skills to make your guests listen to the vows you are making so that they remember your ceremony as the heart of the evening and a true reflection of who you are as individuals and as a couple.
Interfaith
As a Civil Celebrant, Wedding Officiant, and Interfaith Minister, I cherish the vision each couple has for their ceremony. Without imposing my choices, I help to bring your stories and traditions to life by writing a ceremony that is reflective of the
future you imagine together and by officiating to make that future
the heart of the wedding celebration.
Elopements
From Times Square to Central Park, from the High Line to Brooklyn Bridge, from the vista of the New York City Skyline viewed from the New Jersey shore to the elegance of a hotel suite, or the simplicity of your own living room, the words of all wedding ceremonies should celebrate the magic of two lovers building one life. Does it get any better than this?

A ceremony is a momentf to celebrate the love and work that has been given by generations before you to make you who you are today. I am a Civil Celebrant, but my wedding ceremonies, while not formally religious, strive to capture the universal truth that connects us and endures in memory and love and is passed on through marriage and children and family and community.
