Pure Simplicity
Ordained Minister in Huntsville, Alabama
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I originally became an ordained minister because I wanted to serve people in meaningful moments of their lives. For me, it wasn’t about a title; it was about creating space for love, faith, and family to be honored. A close friend asked me to officiate their wedding, and that experience showed me how powerful it is to help couples start their new chapter with a ceremony that truly reflects who they are. From there, I felt called to continue offering that support to others, whether in weddings or other milestones. It’s a way for me to use my faith, compassion, and love for people to make their special day unforgettable.

What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a Huntsville, AL wedding officiant?
I think what makes my ceremonies special is the personal touch I bring. I really take the time to get to know each couple-their story, their values, the kind of atmosphere they want-and I use that to shape the ceremony. It’s never just a script; it’s their story being told in a way that feels authentic to them. My goal is for the couple to feel completely at ease and for their guests to walk away saying, ‘That was so them.’ I also try to bring a calm, joyful energy to the day so everyone can just relax and enjoy the moment.
