A Seattle "native" since 1982, I’ve been involved in the wedding industry most of his life, running a small catering company with my wife Stephie, and later working for her floral design business. As a former SF Bay Area stage actor, I find that many of those skills translate well to public speaking in general! During the holidays, you can find me at Lake Forest Park Town Center and University Village, where I work as a professional Santa Claus!

I focus on creating heartfelt, personalized ceremonies that celebrate your unique love story. Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement or a grand celebration, my goal is to craft a ceremony that feels authentic, meaningful, and memorable. I’ve had the honor of officiating weddings of all kinds—religious, non-religious, spiritual, and everything in between. I take the time to get to know each couple, ensuring your ceremony reflects your values, traditions, and personalities.

With my experience and adaptability, I'll help you create a warm, professional, and unique wedding ceremony. I'm dedicated to crafting a relaxed and joyful atmosphere that reflects your love story. I prioritize incorporating only the elements that hold deep meaning for you, ensuring your ceremony is a true reflection of your relationship and values.

I am an officiant & Humanist Celebrant offering meaningful and sacred ceremonies, celebrations, rites of passage. I approach each ceremony with care, love, and respect for the couple’s vision. I am an experienced and ordained minister with 27 years of experience, and over 700 weddings and ceremonies; offering traditional and non-traditional weddings, sacred ceremonies, rites of passage, and hand-fasting rituals. I am a gentle, caring, seasoned professional who holds sacred space and creates meaningful, personalized experiences. I will travel and love nature weddings!
