Your wedding ceremony sets the tone for the entire day—make sure it starts beautifully. As a trusted Toronto wedding officiant, I create heartfelt ceremonies that are thoughtfully crafted and beautifully delivered, from intimate, simple legal ceremonies to custom celebrations.
Together, we’ll create a ceremony that feels like a true reflection of your love, and a beautiful beginning to your future.
Whether you’re planning a simple civil ceremony or a fully customized wedding in Toronto or the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), Dearly Beloved Ceremonies offers officiant services that feel unique, calm, and effortless.
Known for discovering unique readings and creative ways to include guests—especially children and seniors—I create ceremonies that balance emotion with joy. Rather than relying on templates, I capture a meaningful moment from your relationship or engagement and weave it into a ceremony that genuinely reflects who you are as a couple. Storytelling, cultural traditions, spirituality, and humour are seamlessly incorporated, guided by the tone you want your guests to experience.
The result is an intimate, highly personalized ceremony that sets the perfect tone for the beginning of your happily-ever-after.

Couples often seek a marriage officiant due to timing pressures, family expectations, or the need to obtain their marriage certificate quickly for immigration or travel. As an experienced Toronto wedding officiant, I help simplify the process and ensure everything is handled correctly and on time.
I manage ceremony details with precision, offer fast turnaround on scripts and ceremony dates, and adapt easily when plans change. With nearly 100 weddings completed, I’ve encountered virtually every wedding scenario, allowing me to anticipate challenges and guide couples with confidence. I regularly officiate Christian, multicultural, interfaith, LGBTQ+, and non-traditional weddings, and I have extensive experience with restaurant weddings, small weddings, and unique venues.
Above all, I provide clarity where there’s uncertainty and calm where there’s stress. My wedding officiant services are designed to help you feel supported and fully present—leaving you to enjoy a wedding ceremony that’s personal, professional, and truly memorable.
