Ethan McClelland

I became a minister with the ULC to be able to better serve the spiritual and marriage needs of my friends and family. I have since officiated weddings, performed funerals, given guidance, and blessed many homes. I work with both secular and religious people from all backgrounds and walks of life.

I am originally from and have lived all over the beautiful PNW, and currently reside in Vancouver, WA.

I seek to continue my own spiritual journey, grow in my understanding of the human experience we all share, and deepen my empathy for my fellow humans and the natural world.

I seek to help others fully participate in the universal wonders of life and love, as well as heal from loss and grief.

I am personally more spiritual than religious, but can see eye to eye with and relate to just about anyone who shares the human experience.

I want to get to know you, your partner, your loved ones, and your life, on a deeper level, and connect with you spiritually before beginning work. I ensure your ceremony, no matter the type or theme, feels as special as you are.

I love performing non-traditional and themed weddings and ceremonies of all types. Star Wars, DnD, Lord of the Rings, Country Western, Drag, Disco, etc. The more funky and fun your imagination is the better!

I am more than happy to either travel for your ceremony or find safe space here in the PNW for you. LGBTQIA+ ceremonies are more than welcomed, they are loved and encouraged.

I am located in the PNW, and have travelled extensively both for personal and minstry reasons. My standard fees are for travel within a ~300 mile radius of my location in Vancouver, WA. But I am willing and able to travel anywehre in the world with negotiated increases in charges.

No matter who you are, what baggage you bring, or what drama may ensue at your ceremony, I will not let it ruin your day. The ceremony is about you, your loved ones, your family (both found and blood), and it will stay that way. I have performed weddings, funerals, house blessings, and many other ceremonies and no matter what tried to get in the way I work with my clients to overcome it in a compassionate and professional manner.
