Special moments in our lives
Personal celebrations mark special moments in our lives, to be remembered and reflected upon.
Lasting memories
A well-planned, meaningful ceremony makes all the difference in highlighting a special day, in celebrating life and its many passages. It is a gateway to creating lasting memories.
Connecting with ourselves
Ceremonies are a time for connecting with ourselves at deeply personal levels. It’s a joining of our roots, our own history—and perhaps thoughts of one’s future—to an immediate moment in time.
Relevant for your guests, too
The best ceremonies are personally relevant. Not only for those immediately involved, but for guests as well. Everyone gets drawn in, reflecting on some aspect of the ceremony.
Creating what you want
I would be pleased to guide you in creating a special ceremony, marking a rite of passage in your life or that of a loved one.
A warm and caring person, I’m trained and experienced in providing services as an officiant, and licenced to perform marriages in Ontario.
I know what is required in planning and presiding at personal events.
And I understand just what it takes to make a ceremony truly meaningful and memorable —be it a happy occasion or marking the death of a loved one.
“But we also need. . .”
Not too sure where to hold your event? Need music, flowers, other arrangements looked after? I can put you in touch with any other service you need.
Let me assist you in making your ceremonies meaningful and memorable. For you and your guests.
