Laughingly dubbed the "Irreverent Reverends" due to our propensity to institute creativity, warmth and even a bit of humor into wedding ceremonies, our officiants pride themselves on their "irreverent gaiety and ease of manner" when developing and performing your wedding service.
We share a passion for helping couples tell their unique love story and we are absolutely grounded in the philosophy that all expressions of love are valid. To that end, we create your ceremony based on your expressed values. You may want to mention God in your ceremony, or you may prefer something totally secular. You may desire that your ceremony reflects the glory of nature, a Universal Spirit, or you may have some more traditional religious or cultural customs you'd like to include. The choice is yours.

We are all talented and creative writers, polished public speakers, and we're experts at handling wedding-day glitches. We know all of the ceremony etiquette and we're just as quick to reassure you that you don't have to do anything by a prescribed set of rules. Mostly, we love what we do, and it shows.

We would like to say that not only did you look the part, you performed really well, with your deep, confident voice carrying remarkably well. Yes, we wrote the vows, but the manner in which you delivered them and the emphasis on certain key words really drove the message home.
This day was so special in so many ways and we want to thank you so much for the role you played in it.
