Our Services

A wedding ceremony is rarely "cookie-cutter." Nor should it be. The ceremony is one of the few opportunities for you to place your own stamp on the wedding day. People sometimes lose sight of the fact that there are actually few things that must legally be said during the service. These statements take all of a couple minutes to say, leaving the rest of your ceremony up to you. Many couples do like the traditional format of the wedding ceremony, but even within this structure, there are ways to make it your own. This is the part of the process that I have the most fun with.

By learning more about you and your fiancé, I am able to recommend unique elements, phrasing, and symbolism for your service. Of course, this is all done while keeping the focus on a tasteful and elegant wedding. Once in a while, I will be asked to perform a purely traditional service. In this case, the format and script of the ceremony are already set-in-stone. While I am willing to accommodate this request, it has become more and more rare as couples seek to add a spirit of specialness to their ceremony. Regardless of whether you wish for a heavily scripted affair or a classic traditional service, I will work to ensure your day is special and unforgettable.

The Perfect Wedding Ceremony

I am often asked what makes the perfect wedding ceremony. My answer is simple - you. As the special couple, your ceremony should be a reflection of the uniqueness of your love. No other couple shares the connection the two of you share. This connection is comprised of a special bond that I believe is unique to every couple. This is why I will work with both of you to create a ceremony that is perfect for you as a couple. Your love deserves something special. That is why I created Joyous Occasions. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
