Wedding Officiants in Fitchburg, MA

As a veteran teacher, I like helping people and making a difference in the lives of others. Being married 10 years myself, I believe in the importance of commitment with a life-long partner. Thinking back to my on wedding, I remember what made that day so special and want to help others have the same experience. Additionally, I worked part-time as a wedding manager at a large venue in downtown Boston, helping several hundred couples have a memorable wedding day. From small and intimate to large and elaborate, I would like to help make your day special and customized to your wants and needs.
