How It All Began…

On April 23rd — my very own wedding day — something magical happened. A Notary Public came to our home, surrounded by our closest family and friends, and officiated the most beautiful ceremony I had ever experienced. Our wedding day was pure joy from beginning to end! I had planned every detail — from the invitations to the décor to the honeymoon — and everything came together like a dream.

My husband looked around in awe and said,
“Wow… you would make an amazing Wedding Officiant! You should do this for real!”

Me??
Standing in front of big groups of people??
My first thought was “No way!”
I could feel the butterflies doing cartwheels in my stomach.

But then… it came up again the next day. And the next. My husband wasn’t joking — he was genuinely confident I had a gift for this. His belief in me was so sincere that I actually started feeling curious. Maybe… just maybe… he saw something I didn’t yet see.

So the very next day, I picked up the phone and called Claire — our own Wedding Officiant. I asked her a million questions (bless her heart!) and by the end of that conversation, something inside me clicked. I could feel it.
This was meant for me.

The more I imagined myself standing before couples, guiding them into one of the most sacred moments of their lives, the more it felt right — natural — exciting.

And within just a few weeks…
Beautiful Bridal Ceremonies was born!

What began as my wedding day miracle turned into my life’s passion — creating unforgettable ceremonies filled with love, joy, beauty, and heartfelt magic.

My very first wedding!
September 8, 1997

Oh my goodness, I will never forget this one!

I was so nervous I could practically feel my heartbeat in my toes — trembling on the inside while trying my absolute best to look cool, calm, and professional on the outside.

But then… it hit me.

I wasn’t the only one with butterflies! The bride and groom were just as adorably nervous as I was. It was the cutest thing — like we were all taking our very first step into something magical together.

And to top it off, guess what I used for their big day?

The wedding arch and bridal accessories from my very own wedding — all rented out for their ceremony. That was the moment I realized…

Wait a second… I’m officially an entrepreneur!

My Story

I once learned that many of us choose our life's work based on something that touchedd us deeply in childhood — often between he ages of one and seven. When I heard that, it made me pause and look back at my own story.

At seven years old, my parents separated.

That moment shook my little world. I remember feeling heartbroken, confused, and wishing with all my might that my family could stay together. The pain of that experience stayed with me, but over time I began to see something beautiful hidden inside it.

Their breakup, as devastating as it was, quietly planted the seed of my destiny.

Without even realizing it at the time, that early heartbreak became the foundation of my calling. In 1997, at the age of 32, I stepped fully into the work my soul was meant to do — helping bring couples together in love, unity, and commitment.

Every ceremony I officiate is, in a way, my way of healing that childhood wound… and transforming it into something sacred. By joining couples in matrimony, I get to honor love, celebrate partnership, and help create the very thing my heart longed for as a child: connection that lasts. 💛

A Little Love Story Behind Beautiful Bridal Ceremonies -

Long before Beautiful Bridal Ceremonies was ever born, destiny revealed a gentle truth to me: I was meant to walk with love. Many years ago, I introduced three cherished girlfriends to three wonderful men. What began as humble blind dates blossomed into three extraordinary love stories.

Each couple felt an instant connection… an unforgettable first date that blossomed into true, lasting love. Today, all three couples are happily married — some with beautiful children — and their marriages have stood the test of time. The longest has been joyfully united for over 25 years, long before my wedding ministry officially came into existence.

Their stories remind me that love has its own divine timing… and sometimes, all it needs is a gentle nudge or a heartfelt introduction.

And now, with Beautiful Bridal Ceremonies, I’m honored to continue being a part of love’s most sacred moments.

One day a woman ~

She was 83 years old when she slowly approached me at the end of the ceremony — her fifth and youngest granddaughter’s wedding. She reached for my hand with such tenderness that I immediately paused.

Then, in the softest voice, she said, “Thank you.”

I stood there for a moment, a little puzzled, until she continued speaking with a gentle sincerity that filled my heart.

“I have seen all of my grandchildren marry,” she said, “and I have been present at every one of their weddings. This is my youngest granddaughter, the last one to be married. When she told me that a Notary Public would be officiating… I admit, I felt disappointed that she would not be married in the church.”

She looked into my eyes, squeezed my hand, and went on.

“But after hearing your ceremony today… I must tell you… I listened to your every word. I was so deeply touched by what you expressed to my granddaughter and her new husband — by the meaning, the intention, and the beauty in the words you chose. I’m thanking you because I am truly pleased. You fit the part perfectly. God bless you.”

Her words washed over me like a blessing of love — unexpected, heartfelt, and unforgettable.
