Words for Your Best Day Ever.
Creative, Unique Ceremonies
Written Just for Your Love Story

As an officiant who loves to be part of your special day, I’ve had the privilege to marry over 400 couples. Watching these couples begin their lives together - by the side of a lake to the top of a mountain - from an elopement of two on a snowy day to 300 people in the summer heat - it lifts my heart to see love unfold.

My history as a writer and explorer of cultures and religions allows me to create unique ceremonies such as handfastings, the unity water ceremony, ceremonies to include children and to create your personalized unity ceremonies as I’ve done for many couples over the years. I love to craft interfaith ceremonies and my training in a religious background also allows me to provide traditional ceremonies as well.

I would love to hear your story. Contact me for more information and to tell me about you!

  • Enjoy an elegant elopement.

    Imagine the two of you embraced in the beautiful mountains, holding hands on the edge of a riverbank or basking in the evening sun right in your own backyard. I love elopements!

  • Sandy was a HUGE help on our wedding day. She got everybody situation for us, went over with my dad on how to give me away, and I couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful ceremony. Sandy was professional but personal and helped us feel like a family was joined together that day.

  • Wonderful presence and beautiful ceremony. She created a unique, personalized wedding ceremony with us and met with us individually the morning of the wedding. Sandy was great for our secular wedding in the woods.
