Designing Your Wedding Ceremony

     When you meet with Rev. Carrie you'll have the opportunity to choose elements from her comprehensive portfolio of ceremonies, readings and blessings. Rev. Carrie has researched hundreds of ceremonies from many world traditions and re-written them to remove the heavy religious overtones they often contain, so that they now reflect today's messages of spirituality, love and life. She has the traditional ceremonies as well as some very unusual things. And she has written several ceremonies at the couples' request, so you'll find things here you won't find anywhere else.

     Rev. Carrie can create ceremonies that have elements from a wide variety of world traditions incorporated in them such as Celtic, Native American, Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu, Mexican, African, and others. Her delivery of these ceremonies makes it possible for all your guests to enjoy the ceremony regardless of their religious or spiritual background.

     The key word in working with Rev. Carrie is flexibility. You can choose from a selection of vows, or you may write your own. Rev. Carrie has a lot of ways to involve and honor your friends and family, or include your children in your ceremony. You'll also have the chance to select readings and blessings that represent your relationship and life together.

What couples have to say about Rev. Carrie

     "We wanted a short, simple and small private wedding. I was worried that because of that it would not be memorable, but thanks to
Rev. Carrie, the ceremony was very memorable
and very special.  


     Rev Carrie was organized, on time, and communicated often.  Working with her to choose from her many options which made our ceremony unique was great.


     Her suggestion that we incorporate the sand unity vase since we were outdoors really tied our families together, gave everyone a part in the ceremony and made for great photos!  The flowers honoring parents who could not attend was touching to everyone. 


     Rev. Carrie made us feel comfortable and calm so that we could really focus on the words being spoken.  She was clear, professional and sincere.
All in all, it was perfect.  We highly recommend
Rev. Carrie."

The WeddingWire Couples' Choice Awards® recognizes the top 5 percent of local Wedding Professionals from the WeddingWire Network throughout the United States, Canada and abroad that demonstrate excellence in quality, service, responsiveness and professionalism.

Unlike other awards in which winners are selected by the organization, the WeddingWire Couples' Choice Awards® are awarded solely based on the reviews from over 200,000 newlyweds.

Awards are determined by a combination of excellence in four factors: overall rating (quality), total number of reviews (quantity), review performance from the year (recency), and consistency of reviews from year to year (consistency).
