Introduction

With over 30 years experience in preparing and performing weddings, I am here to help you have the ceremony you design. As an ordained priest in an independent Catholic church, I am able to provide a Catholic ceremony that is sacramentally valid in the location of your choice. I also frequently lead simple civil ceremonies, interfaith marriages; and always work with you to customize a unique ceremony. My passion is to make your wedding a powerful expression of your love. All are welcome, heterosexual and LGBTQI+ are equally served.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

I have an established fee schedule that provides a guide to our conversation. I can be flexible. Some discounts apply.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

After the initial email contact, we will arrange an initial conversation (unperson or remote) to review your hopes and imagination. We will put a plan in place at that point.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I have been providing planning and services to couples for over 30 years in Catholic, Christian, interfaith and secular settings. W a priest in the American National Catholic Church, I am honored to offer a Catholic option to couples that want to be a part of the tradition but are not comfortable I the Roman Rite.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I began this work as an element of my career in church music.

What types of customers have you worked with?

I have worked with a broad range of customers. Everyone is unique and hope for a genuine expression of their love.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Find someone with whom you are comfortable, who listens well, and gives honest feedback.
