John Galeotos

I initially sought ordination to officiate my daughter’s wedding… an experience which is shaping how I understand ceremony… as something personal, intentional, and deeply human.

I was baptized in the Greek Orthodox Church, and while that tradition remains part of my foundation, my path has expanded to include Hermetic philosophy and a more individual approach to meaning and ritual.

I have been influenced by texts such as the Kybalion, I see ceremony not as performance, but as a structured moment of awareness… a way of marking transition with clarity and purpose.

My approach is minimalist by design… focused on the individuals involved rather than tradition for its own sake. Whether I am officiating a wedding, vow renewal, or personal rite of passage, I work to create a space that feels authentic… grounded, sincere, and free of unnecessary ornament.

I meet people where they are… allowing each ceremony to reflect its own meaning rather than conform to expectation.

Calling attention to the moment. The pause. Being present for the couple you have come to witness.
