Many couples want their ceremony to be uniquely their own. I work directly with you to create a personalized ceremony-- down to every detail. I have deep respect for this intimate role, and it’s important to me that by the day of your marriage we have developed such a rapport that it feels like I am a friend who has known you for years.

Step 1. Discovery Questionnaire: Dive into the planning process with ease. Primarily, its purpose is to help identify elements you’d like to include in your ceremony. Your answers will provide me with insight into your partnership which I will weave into your script. The survey goes on to ask more personal questions about your relational dynamic and meaning of your union. While this section is optional, many couples rave that the questions result in deep conversations and a greater sense of connection between them.

Step 2. I send you a draft ceremony script: I come prepared with ceremony structure possibilities, a vow writing support guide, creative ideas for community engagement and love-filled quotes for you to pull from. We’ll collaboratively hone your ceremony structure to perfection. Elements I've brought into past ceremonies include: telling your love story, a ring warming, community vows, collective moment of reflection and playful surprises for each of your guests.

Step 3. Wedding Day: You relax and leave the details for me to worry about. All you should have to think about is being present for one another and enjoying the experience!

A big thank you to Kiyomi and Joel who generously recorded this video about their experience working with me!

“Sarah was fantastic - both in planning our outside-the-box ceremony and beautifully officiating. We wanted to co-create something uniquely us, and she was the perfect guide for this. From providing an excellent outline to create within, to sharing a variety of elements we could incorporate; to helping us finalize our ideas into an experience that would be memorable for all - we could not have done it without her. And on the big day she guided the ceremony with such sweet presence, heartful humor, and natural embodied love, it added so much to the charm of the day for everyone. We can't recommend her highly enough!”

“Sarah is an excellent officiant - she is kind, professional, timely, and honored our vision for our wedding day. For those that want a special, customized & organized wedding ceremony–Sarah is the officiant for you. Sarah hiked about 3 miles with us so we could get married in a meaningful space. She did a few additional unexpected things (that I won’t spoil) that made our day even more meaningful.
Sarah made our wedding ceremony everything that we wanted it to be, and more. We couldn’t recommend her more!”

Kerry & Brad, May, 2023, Lake Tahoe

“From start to finish, Sarah was a truly wonderful person to work with. Her thoughtfulness, flexibility and creative touches all contributed to the perfect ceremony that my partner and myself envisioned. We decided to work with Sarah because her track record gave us the comfortable feeling that we knew we could trust in someone with the difficult responsibility of officiating a ceremony, especially a multi-cultural ceremony.

Sarah brought out many resources to us and blew us away with her patient ways along with many different creative ideas/routes we could of gone for our ceremony. Working with Sarah was undoubtedly much easier than we initially anticipated and especially have a ceremony that required blending cultures together. Sarah was so thoughtful and added many beautiful and light touches. We would highly recommend Sarah to any couple that is looking to have a thoughtful and committed officiant.”

-Sam & Melissa, June, 2023

"What drew us to Sarah was how thoughtful she was, and how she was genuinely interested in us as people and a couple. We were able to incorporate our individual selves as well as our families and communities in ways that were really meaningful.

Sarah had a robust process for creating the ceremony script with enough structure to help us figure out what we wanted, while allowing us make it our own. She made the process fun too - she had us do an exercise of answering questions about how we met, experiences we’ve had together, and describing each other. We also really liked that she had some of our friends write a few words about us to share as a surprise.

Sarah made our ceremony truly meaningful. She helped us feel comfortable, made the process easy and fun, was very professional, and did a great job performing the ceremony."

-David & Aishwariya, September, 2022

“Sarah was an absolute joy to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. Designing the ceremony was an easy, enjoyable endeavor under her lead. We had numerous guests come up and compliment the ceremony and officiant, I think that speaks volumes. Sarah's grounding spirit and loving energy is what you'll want on your wedding day - from the bottom of our hearts, thank you Sarah.”

-Adnan & Christina, May, 2022

“An over the moon experience. Sarah created an elegant and personalized ceremony that fit our needs, spoke directly to us, talked about specific moments, and helped us feel comfortable on our special day. Working with Sarah is easy, creative, and get you talking about the "WHY" around marriage and one another. She is very talented and can adapt to anything. I would recommend Sarah to anyone who wants a one of a kind ceremony that will leave memories that last a lifetime.”

-Nic & Sarah, September, 2021

“Sarah was the officiant of all officiants. People kept asking me after the ceremony, “who was that INCREDIBLE friend of yours who officiated your wedding??? She was so lovely, personal, kind, touching, etc….” Everyone was always SHOCKED when I said I found her online!

The ceremony was so beautiful and personal – it was probably the happiest I had ever been in my entire life, and Sarah was a driving and central force behind why. She worked with us to craft the PERFECT wedding in every way and make sure it was everything we ever wanted. Not only did she deliver on this, she went above and beyond with her own unique touches and glowing and kind heart and personality.

Any couple who has been married by Sarah knows how incredibly lucky they are, and I feel like one day she will be this incredibly famous person with waitlists years long for her services.”

-Stephanie & Peter, May, 2019

“We cannot recommend Sarah highly enough!
Leading up to the wedding, she became our guiding light amidst a chaotic sea of decisions. On the day, she remained a pillar of calm, providing gentle guidance where needed. We were continually amazed at Sarah’s unique ability to bring people together. Seemingly effortlessly, she engendered an atmosphere of community and created a space for our diverse guests to feel connected to us and to each other.

During the ceremony itself, her powerful presence spurred openness and sharing, elevating our ceremony to something deeply personal and inspirational not only to us, but also to our guests. Unsolicited rave reviews of the ceremony poured in, many guests pronouncing genuinely that this was the best ceremony they had ever been a part of. We of course think so too.”

-Jonathan & Sara, November, 2019

“Perfection. Sarah did amazing work! Our ceremony was perfect! Just as we wanted it. She takes the time and tailors your ceremony as you and your partner want it. She is always on top of things and talking to her is so easy. She is calm, a good listener and wants the best for you. She is also a coach so she really helped me and my husband talk about things we were not even thinking about. I am so happy to have found her!!! If you are getting married and looking for an Officiant, YOU NEED SARAH!!!!”

-Mario & Fernando, August, 2020

“Sarah conducted the ceremony beautifully, and many guests commented afterward on how well she ran the show. We felt very confident that Sarah had everything under control, which allowed us to become completely absorbed in the unforgettable moment.

We also did two couples therapy sessions with Sarah before the wedding. We didn’t have any particular relationship problems that we wanted to solve, but we thought doing couples therapy would be a good opportunity to check in on our relationship and ask if there is anything we would want to improve. The attitude that Sarah cultivated during those sessions gave us the perfect space to reflect on why we were getting married, and what we actually wanted to build together during the happily ever after part. It made the experience of being married by her that much more special. If you can, we would highly recommend doing some sessions before your wedding.

Overall, Sarah was the perfect celebrant, and we would highly recommend working with her.”

-Thomas & Anna, September, 2019

“Sarah arrived early, looking stunning, and after giving us a quick pump-up pep talk, took command of the guests who were starting to take their seats. We didn't do a full rehearsal beforehand so this was all mostly on the fly by her aside from the script we had built together.

She was calm and reassuring from start to finish. I cannot speak more highly of Sarah's professionalism, positive attitude, and ability to address and capture a beautiful moment in your life.”

-Kyle & Wendy, June 2019

“Sarah was the best! Sarah was amazing to work with. We wanted a unique ceremony that was very personalized, which Sarah delivered on and then some. She was always quick to respond, thorough with her communication, and organized with a structured process.

What we appreciated the most was how Sarah took plenty of feedback from my husband and I, as well as our close family and friends to help create the ceremony. We wanted everyone to feel the love we have for one another and that mission was definitely accomplished. If you decide to work with Sarah, you won’t regret it!”

-Jillian & Kyle, September 2019

“Wonderful experience! We picked Sarah because we wanted a very personalized ceremony, and she really delivered. Lots of our family members came up to us after the ceremony to say how much they loved it. My aunt thought she knew us because of how well she told the "love story" portion and how well she captured our sense of humor. In addition to being great at the creative side of putting together and leading a wedding ceremony, Sarah is also incredibly organized and really thinks through all the little details. We highly recommend her!”

-Shannan & Clark, October, 2019

“Sarah is beyond incredible at what she does. Sarah did such an amazing job and it is something we will cherish forever. She was kind, attentive, and truly showcased the love that my bride and I shared. She did an incredible job of providing examples and tidbits to help us form a perfect and personalized ceremony script a long with providing guidance for writing our vows. It was so important to us to have someone who supported our marriage as an LGBT couple. She was beyond perfect for our special day and if you want someone who is genuine then you have found her.”

-Desiree & Luci, September, 2019

"We fell in love with Sarah 2 years before our wedding. Our chemistry and energy matched from the first meeting. She understood our vision and our goofy personalities. Together we created a very special, emotional and fun ceremony that even pouring rain and stopping half way through didn't matter. She was able to hold it together in such a loving calming way, that everyone was very complimentary about her. We have had so many magical moments during the ceremony, that no one will ever forget it. Thank you so much dearest Sarah, for making our Day - a day we were waiting for 11 years - absolutely PERFECT!"

-Gosia and Scott, July, 2019

"She gave us the words to our love story. We loved everything about Sarah as our officiant! Sarah's delivery was powerful and personal. She has a very soothing voice and she talked about us like she knew us. Several of my guests asked me if she knew us and said she was great - they were surprised she didn't know us beforehand! A testament to how seriously Sarah takes each wedding. I am already enjoying going back to listen to my wedding video and listening to the ceremony, she put the words to our love story and made it shareable with all of our friends and family... If you are having your wedding recorded - having a strong speaker as your officiant is key! They are like a narrator, and the quality of your officiant will show on your video. My husband and I wholeheartedly recommend Sarah."

-Jamie & Paul, June, 2019

“Sarah is magical! Warm, inviting - and deeply thorough in her process. She took the time to know us as a couple, and made our wedding everything it could be, and more. 

If you're looking for a true professional - someone unafraid to challenge your notion of marriage, commitment, and the systems that drive a healthy union - Sarah is unreservedly the officiant for you! 

We loved having her guide us through this journey, keeping us engaged/positive/playful and curious. We'll never forget it!”

-Rob & Michelle , May, 2019

“Sarah is absolutely a dream to work with! From the very beginning, it felt like we were old friends. She is professional and also personable. The process of crafting our ceremony with Sarah's guidance brought us closer as a couple- forcing us to look deeper into our relationship and ourselves. It was a vulnerable yet beautiful experience- like falling in love all over again...

Sarah has a special gift for creating the space, grounding and setting the tone for your wedding day... Just trust her!!! We had so many compliments on our ceremony, everyone kept saying it was the most beautiful and unique ceremony they've ever been to! That they were so engaged in what was happening and how eloquently our love story was told. We couldn't have found a better person to officiate our day!”

-Lea & Vijay Ramesh, April, 2019

“Warm, open, and deserving of your trust. Sarah was not only a wonderful officiant for our ceremony day, but a friend and close counsel for months before the big day. We were drawn to her experience with couples counseling and designing individualized ceremonies, and were blown away with the outcome of ours. Guests from our wedding are still raving about the sweet, personal touches and how "us" everything was. Sarah is a vivacious team player and so easy to make a deep connection with - she loves what she does and shines bright.”

-Chelsea & Adam Price-Gallinat, April, 2019

“An easy choice. Spectacular Ceremony! From the moment we first met Sarah, we knew she was going to be the one to marry us. She was grounded, genuine, and confident. She made planning out the ceremony effortless and allowed us to easily come up with what we wanted to say. Though our wedding was just one of many that Sarah has officiated, my wife and I truly felt like our wedding was the only one that mattered to her due to her dedication and obvious love for what she does.”

-Conor & Megan Acomb, February, 2019

"We were IMMEDIATELY blown away. She was patient, thoughtful, organized, attentive, caring... basically everything we were looking for in a wedding officiant, but SO much more... We were shocked by her careful attentiveness and presence. She KNEW what she was doing and she did it so well… My husband and I agree, the ceremony and her work was THE best part of the wedding… We have nothing but spectacular, amazing things to say about Sarah. She made our wedding ours and it was the best part of the special day."

-Kiyomi LaFleur & Joel Kaplan, September, 2018

“We searched for a premarital counselor and officiant in sync with people, nature, and the greater spirit. We found Sarah and were whole! Sarah has helped us realize the depth of love we share. We are more compassionate, present minded, forward thinking, and can serve each other for each other. We learned the value and importance of big and small community, and we couldn’t be better prepared for marriage.

We wanted a unique ceremony and got nothing less. Sarah came to us with a beautiful framework. Seriously all our guests commented on how they never cry at weddings but were so touched by ours they shed tears!

We believe Sarah is servicing the world through her calling to bring couples and communities together in companionship and celebration, and we can’t recommend her more highly.”

-Taylor Ramagos & Kimi Bengochea, September, 2018

“Before planning our wedding, we had a fairly concrete vision set for our ideal ceremony, which included: Chinese translation, a tea ceremony, Christian elements, an emphasis on our personal values, community thank-yous and our dog bringing us our rings! Sarah refined our initial ideas and made the ceremony really shine. Sarah has a unique presence which makes her a natural public speaker. Thank you for making our wedding day wonderful!”

-Stephen Chan & Josie Zhang, September, 2018

“She's the full package, we would strongly recommend having Sarah as an officiant to anyone! It created a stress free environment knowing that our officiant had it all planned to a T and had back up plans to make sure it all went smoothly. A very great experience! Sarah worked with us on every last detail and made sure to keep our wedding unique and everything that we wanted. She was amazing at writing the script and creating a ceremony that was perfect for us and completely captured our relationship.”

-Sierra Dale & Keaton Smith, July, 2018

“Sarah was a true blessing. She did an amazing job writing and performing our ceremony. It was unique, special and fit us perfectly. We were so grateful to have her be with us on our big day. I was so stressed out about having the perfect ceremony and thanks to Sarah we did!”

-Melissa Ziganti & Jim Sifton, 2018

"We asked Sarah to officiate our wedding because of our trust in her. We knew she would bring the utmost care and professionalism, and infuse our ceremony with love and a personal touch. And she did! She came along for all our family festivities throughout the weekend, connected with our loved ones and made sure they felt included and important. She jumped in to organize our bridal parties and oversaw communications. Over the years, Sarah has provided much insight and support to our partnership. We are thriving and so happy!"

-Ingrid & Miguel Alvarez, July, 2016

"Sarah did an amazing job officiating our wedding.  Sarah is a very open individual, who can connect with anyone on multiple levels and really read into what it is that you are needing or wanting. You can feel by her presence she is someone who embodies love and wishes to contribute to and grow the love of your partnership. We highly recommend using Sarah as an officiant to anyone who wants their wedding to build community and connection! She does a fantastic job creating a beautiful ceremony and loving community!"

-Caitlin Delap & Grant Gundrum, September, 2016

“A canoe trip turned out to be one of the most extraordinary of my life. We left single and came back married! The soulful, professional, fun guidance from Sarah, remote beauty, outrageous stars, delicious love, long, sweet canoe floats, SWIMMING, ever deepening and amusing camaraderie with the group, jungle surgery, yummy meals, and the SWEETEST time ever with my now husband. I still prefer ‘glamping’ but, for me, this trip was UTTER MAGIC and SHEER PERFECTION.”

-Adelyn Jones & Mercury Roberts, who decided impromptu to get married on a week long-canoe couples trip I host. I officiated their wedding in Labyrinth Canyon, Utah, August, 2016

"I've been to countless weddings and ceremonies of various types and I must say, Sarah truly has a gift. She facilitated the marriage of my friends to perfection with depth and humor and grace. I recommend her for any ceremonial leadership you might have need for and especially for those involving a love bond."

-Jesse Seavers

"Sarah officiated my daughter's wedding last July. Aside from being a lovely woman outwardly, it was Sarah's inner ambiance that helped create the happiest day of my daughter's life. Sarah took a great deal of time learning about the romance which ultimately led to the big day. All of the conventional traditions were there but Sarah's intrinsic instinct of life and love added a unique and earthy quality that was truly magical. I would highly recommend this lovely, young women to anyone about to take their marriage vows!"

-Cathy Bergquist

"I've witnessed Sarah officiate several weddings.  She is compassionate, articulate, kind and honest.  She uses her skill as a coach to get to know you, weaving together the narrative of a couple's joint existence, and delivering that story gracefully to an audience.  This isn't just her job, it's what she lives for -- and it shows."

-Nick Masson

"I was at a wedding last summer that Sarah facilitated on a couples canoe trip we co-hosted and it was amazing! The venue was perfect, and her words were incredible, inspiring, and appropriate. She is also a talented couples coach and I was witness to highly skilled coaching with 2 different couples- one was the couple who got married later in the week. She is amazing!"
