Valerie Hinton
Ordained Minister in Greenville, South Carolina
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I see each ceremony as an opportunity to celebrate the unique bond and commitment shared between partners. When not cheering on ‘happily ever after,’ I devote my time to utilizing MA Psych degree and passion for inspiring people to live their best lives through mindfulness and spiritual healing practices. I deeply believe in the power of love and the importance of intentionality. I approach each wedding ceremony with heartfelt reverence and a commitment to honoring every couple's love story. It is my privilege to create meaningful and memorable ceremonies that reflect the love, values, and dreams of those I have the honor of uniting.

Additional Information
In addition to weddings, I offer various other ministerial services designed with the same thoughtfulness and attention to detail. Whether it's vow renewals, intimate elopements, or even a simple blessing, I approach each with the same dedication to creating something meaningful and personalized.
I see my role not just as an officiant but as a storyteller—one who carefully selects the words that will echo in the hearts of those present long after the ceremony ends. I bring not only a deep respect for the services I provide, but a commitment to ensuring that your day is everything you envisioned—infused with beauty, grace, and the occasional smile that reminds us all why love is, at its core, the most important story we'll ever tell.
