Rev. Nicole Reese Graggs

I am the Founder of The Alter—a soul-centered officiant service offering sacred, personalized ceremonies for all expressions of love.

Columbus, Ohio

At The Alter, every love story is celebrated. Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement, a non-traditional wedding, or a spiritual gathering, I’m here to ensure your ceremony feels uniquely yours.

As a poet, artist, and spiritual space holder, I blend deep intentionality with grounded presence to create ceremonies that don’t just mark a moment—they transform it. Since becoming ordained in 2014, I am dedicated to honoring couples who want more than tradition—my couples want truth, connection, and a ceremony that feels like them.

Rooted in a belief that love is divine and revolutionary, I serve monogamous, polyamorous, LGBTQIA+, and non-traditional couples with care, creativity, and zero judgment. My ceremonies honor all spiritual paths, denominations, and belief systems—with a special heart for those who don’t see themselves reflected in the mainstream.
