The couple requested a Sage Blessing for their ceremony 🪶 🪵 💨 It’s important to me just as much as it is to the couple, to include rituals that are part of their culture, religion, spirituality or personal preference.

This couple came in to file a Domestic Partnership. This is an easier way of committing to your partner in comparison to a legal marriage.

‘California law defines a domestic partnership as “two adults who have chosen to share one another’s lives in an intimate and committed relationship of mutual caring.” It’s an option for couples who share domestic life but don’t necessarily want to get married. While it was once mainly used by same-sex couples in the past, California made domestic partnerships available to all couples in 2020.’ - Family Law Esq. Dorie Rogers

Your wedding ceremony will be customized to your special traditions and requests. In order to book or inquire further details, you’re welcome to make an appointment to meet in my home office (Fresno). The customization begins the day of the meeting where I’ll ask questions about your wedding style, rituals you want to utilize, and if it’s going to be a faith-based or free-spirited ceremony. Your decisions about the ceremony will create a modern or traditional ceremony. The introduction of services will take 15 minutes and another 45 minutes if you decide to book with me, where I’ll ask questions about you and your fiancé to help me build a script unique to your relationship.
