Whether you dream of a traditional Christian ceremony, a non-denominational spiritual union, or an authentic Native American wedding, I am here to craft a sacred experience that reflects your unique beliefs and love story.
Christian & Non-Denominational Spiritual Weddings My spiritual foundation is rooted in the power of prayer and my belief in Jesus Christ. If your heart calls for a traditional Christian marriage, we can weave scripture, prayer, and Holy Communion into your ceremony in a way that feels deeply personal and reverent.
For those who identify as spiritual but not religious, I offer a warm, non-denominational ceremony that honors the divine in all traditions. We can incorporate elements like:
Handfasting – symbolizing the binding of two lives
Unity candles or sand ceremonies – representing the merging of two paths
Personalized vows and readings – from poetry, sacred texts, or your own hearts
Blessings of the four elements – earth, air, fire, and water
I work with you to customize every word, every prayer, and every ritual so that your ceremony feels authentically yours- whether you want a 15-minute elopement or a full-length service with music and readings.
Authentic Lakota Wedding Ceremonies For couples seeking a deeper connection to Native American spirituality and the land of Sedona itself, I offer traditional Lakota wedding ceremonies. I am a Sundancer and a pipe carrier, born of Lakota and Scottish descent. When I stand before you, I do so in full traditional regalia, speaking the Lakota language fluently. This is not a performance; it is a living tradition.
Your ceremony will be imbued with the power of authentic prayer, honoring the four directions, the elements, and the Great Spirit. I bring the wisdom of the Lakota people to your union, connecting your love to the land and to the generations who came before. This option includes all Native American ceremonial items, which you take home as a lasting reminder of your sacred day.
The Gift of a Clean Slate: Cord Removal Before we even speak your vows, I offer you a gift that most couples never think to give themselves: a clean slate. through the ancient art of psychic cord removal, taught to me by my Grand Master, Lieu Siong. I can help you sever the invisible ties to past relationships and emotional baggage.
When you free yourselves from lingering attachments, you are not just saying "I do"; you are saying "I am free." Couples who undergo this life-changing process often find that physical ailments and hidden anxieties simply melt away. Imagine stepping into your marriage with the past truly behind you, as if it never happened. I highly recommend scheduling this sacred work before your ceremony to ensure your union begins with pure, unburdened energy.
The Little Things, Done with Excellence I don't just show up; I prepare. My fee includes an additional hour of gathering and preparing all ceremonial items you will need. I handle all the legalities, from filing your marriage license to presenting you with your marriage certificate, beautifully hand-written in calligraphy. For those who wish to remember every moment, my packages include professional photography and editing.
A Calm, Confident Presence With a background in physics, radionics, and martial arts (including extensive training in Chi Gung and Kung Fu), I see and understand the flow of energy. I can redirect that energy for healing, clear your space of any negativity, and ensure the atmosphere of your ceremony is pure and elevated.
But beyond my skills, I am a husband, a father of two, and a grandfather. I know what love looks like in the long run. I bring a calming, humorous, and grounded presence that puts even the most nervous couples at ease. I am trained to handle large crowds and organize large projects, so you can rest assured that your ceremony will flow seamlessly from beginning to end.
Let us begin. Whether you are saying "I do" for the first time or renewing the vows you've held for decades, I am honored to prepare you, to stand with you, and to perform your marriage ceremony.
