ARE YOU LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO
PERFORM YOUR CEREMONY?
HI! My name is Venus.
As a Celebrant, my job is to research, customize, write, and perform a one-of-a-kind ceremony for you.
Many people overlook the importance of the ceremony and some people just want to 'get it over with'. However, if one thinks about it, the reason why everyone gathers their loved ones together at a ceremony is to have them all witness a change: from old to new, from then to now, from single to duo, from couple to family, etc. The ceremony is what accomplishes this transition.
Since YOU are the one undergoing this transition, why not craft the ceremony to reflect who YOU are? It is possible to make a ceremony meaningful for you and for all those present. You may even attempt to please (almost) everyone, while still emphasizing what matters most to you: YOUR LOVE. My approach is unique because I have been trained in the history and study of ceremony, tradition and ritual. With all this being said, what matters most is giving you the ceremony you want.
My specialty is Couples and Weddings, and I am a non-denominational officiant authorized to solemnize marriages in California. Most of my experience is in conducting ceremonies for marriage, as well as for betrothal/engagement, LGBT commitment/life union, vow renewal, and second marriages (and beyond!).
I am also available for funeral/memorial, family, pet, and tribute services, and for most any other private, civic, or public occasion. Please see ALL OCCASIONS for more information.
YOUR ceremony needs to reflect YOUR personality, beliefs, and lifestyle. ALL philosophies, traditions, and beliefs are honored and included.
Wedding, re-marriage, commitment, GLBT, vow renewal, new baby, welcoming / adoption, coming of age, step-family tribute, new dwelling / home / business, birthday, graduation, tribute, job transition, memorial, funeral / end of life, divorce, special achievement, pet / companion animal, civic or corporate event, any other secular or spiritual event.
