Rev. Deb
Ordained Minister in Harbor City, California
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I became an ordained minister online to formalize what had already become a sacred calling, holding space for transformation, union, and healing. My work as a spiritual artist and ceremony guide was already rooted in deep ancestral wisdom and inclusive ritual, and ordination allowed me to legally officiate weddings and sacred unions in a way that honored both tradition and universal spirituality. Choosing an online path gave me the flexibility to serve diverse communities without being bound to a single denomination, and to weave creativity, reverence, and empowerment into every ceremony I lead.

What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
With my online ordination, I hope to expand the reach and impact of sacred ceremony, making it more accessible, inclusive, and creatively alive. I aim to offer transformative experiences that honor diverse spiritual paths while weaving together art, ritual, and ancestral wisdom. Whether officiating weddings, guiding painting rituals, or leading multi-day workshops, my ordination enables me to hold space both legally and spiritually for deep connection, healing, and celebration. Ultimately, I hope to empower others to see ceremony not just as tradition, but as a living canvas for love, intention, and transformation.

Additional Information
My beliefs are metaphysical and spiritual. I believe we are all one with the Source, an infinite, loving intelligence that flows through all life. I honor the sacred in every tradition and see ceremony as a universal language of connection, healing, and transformation. My path is rooted in energetic awareness, ancestral wisdom, and creative expression. Rather than adhering to a single doctrine, I embrace a fluid spirituality that welcomes all seekers, all stories, and all ways of returning to the divine within.
What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a Harbor City, CA wedding officiant?
What makes my ceremonies special as a wedding officiant is the way I weave art, ritual, and ancestral wisdom into a deeply personal experience. I don’t just perform weddings, I create sacred spaces where couples feel seen, honored, and empowered. Each ceremony is designed collaboratively, blending universal spirituality with the couple’s unique story, values, and vision. As a Spiral Guide and intentional creativity teacher, I often incorporate symbolic elements, such as vow scrolls, altar layouts, and even painting rituals, that allow couples to express their love through color and form. Whether the ceremony is simple or multi-day, traditional or unconventional, my role is to hold space with empathy, clarity, and reverence so that every word, gesture, and moment feels meaningful. My ceremonies are inclusive, soulful, and designed to leave lasting impressions not just on the couple but on everyone who witnesses their union.
