Weddings & Ceremonies
A Ceremony That Feels Personal, Natural, and Truly Yours
As a professionally trained theatre actor and director — as well as a legally ordained minister — I bring a calm presence, strong storytelling instincts, and years of live performance experience to every ceremony I officiate. That doesn’t mean your wedding becomes “a performance.” It means your ceremony is thoughtfully paced, confidently led, emotionally grounded, and engaging for everyone in the room.
Whether your celebration is elegant and traditional, intimate and simple, joyful and theatrical, or completely unconventional, I work closely with couples to create ceremonies that feel authentic, warm, and unmistakably personal.
Available for weddings, vow renewals, commitment ceremonies, and elopements throughout Charleston and beyond.
Why Couples Work With Me
A great ceremony should feel effortless — even though a great deal of care goes into it.
My background in theatre and directing helps me:
Speak comfortably and clearly in front of large groups
Create ceremonies with emotional rhythm and flow
Help couples feel relaxed and present in the moment
Balance sincerity, humor, warmth, and celebration naturally
Handle unexpected moments calmly and professionally
Most importantly, I want your ceremony to sound like you — not a template.

My Style
Warm. Collaborative. Grounded.
A little humor when it fits.
Meaningful without feeling stiff or overly formal.
I’m especially passionate about creating ceremonies that feel welcoming and engaging for everyone present — from lifelong romantics to skeptical groomsmen, emotional parents, and chosen family gathered to celebrate something real.
