Chris Sanborn
Ordained Minister in Eugene, Oregon
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I believe the ceremony is the foundation of the entire wedding day. My goal is to provide a calm, professional, and personalized presence so you can actually enjoy the moment instead of just worrying about the steps

Based in Eugene, Oregon, and available to travel throughout Lane County, including Springfield, Cottage Grove, and the surrounding Willamette Valley forest venues
What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
I hope to serve my community by offering a reliable and creative alternative to traditional, cookie-cutter wedding ceremonies. My focus is on delivering a high-quality, professional experience that honors the significance of the couple's commitment
