your bond.
“Your love story is one of a kind —
your ceremony should be, too.”

Engagement Blessing Ceremony
This ceremony serves as a beautiful and heartfelt way for a couple to formalize their relationship and publicly declare their commitment to one another. More than just a party, it's a moment to receive a blessing for your new journey together and to celebrate the beginning of your engagement with friends and family. This celebration is a joyful prelude to the wedding, often filled with toasts, laughter, and a sense of shared excitement for the future.
Wedding Ceremony
Whether the dream is of a nature-inspired ritual, a ceremony framed in tradition, or a simple and heartfelt exchange of vows, Free from the boundaries of organized religion, these bespoke ceremonies honor love in all its forms, weaving in words, symbols, and rituals that feel authentic to you. Together, we create a moment that is as memorable, joyful, and unique as the life you are building together.
Handfasting
A traditional handfasting ceremony is a complete ritual that involves not just tying of the hands, but also calling upon the elements and invoking divinity. Usually held outdoors, the area is blessed and consecrated. A handfasting intended for a lifelong commitment can be legally recognized when performed by an ordained celebrant.
A handfasting can also be a symbolic act during a wedding, where you and your partner’s hands are bound together with ribbon or cord to symbolize your commitment to each other.
Showers
Pre-wedding showers come in two main types: the couples' shower for both partners, or the traditional bridal shower for the ladies. These celebrations, usually held a month or two before the wedding, can be designed to be as casual or formal as desired, often taking the form of a brunch or tea party. A celebrant can be included to add a layer of organization and ritual, if desired.
A complimentary keepsake copy is available for each service.
Vow Renewel
A vow renewal ceremony is typically held to celebrate and reaffirm wedding vows. Usually, you and your significant other exchange vows again, and you might even read your old vows aloud to each other. Some people choose to write new vows or add to their old vows to reflect better where they are in life now.
Anniversary Celebration
