As much as it is possible, be gentle with yourself and others this holiday season. Many of us are fighting battles you know not of.

I love my job. And it's WONDERFUL when my job (or the couples I marry) loves me back!!!

"Chaplain Claudia was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, they were easy to communicate with and always available to answer any questions we had. She was super easy to get along with and made us feel like family throughout the entire process. Her work was very personable - She knew exactly how to run a smooth and seamless ceremony, and really captured the special moments that made our day feel so unique to us. Chaplain Claudia stepped in when we were in a pinch and did an amazing job running the ceremony perfectly, just as we had imagined it. We would highly recommend Her to any couple looking for a friendly, professional, and talented Officiant."

Thank you, Emma! You & Alex were a dream to work with!!

Emily & Luke tied the knot today... it was a rainy yet beautiful day at the Barn at Lord Howe Valley, and there were lots of fun and meaningful details that put their signature on today's celebration. Wishing you all the best, Mr. and Mrs. Swanson!

The new Mr. and Mrs. Clark! I met them at the City Clerk's office today to *amend* their marriage license... a first for me!

You see, I always *white out* the Social Security of couples I marry on *my photocopy* of their marriage license (because it's sensitive information and I want to protect it for them!). Only in their case, I accidently *whited out* the official copy! And although I tried to scratch off the white out, the fact that I had made an error on it *INVALIDATED* it. So we all (me, them, and two witnesses) headed back to the City Clerk to fill out a new marriage license. The only upside was, we were able to keep their original marriage date!

Lesson learned: slow down and make sure everything is correct on marriage licenses... because they're legal documents and accuracy is essential!

Congrats again, Wes & Jillian!!

What's your opinion on using AI to write your wedding vows? Or your wedding ceremony? I'd like to know!

How does Dr. Seuss manage to find exactly the right words to describe SO. MANY. THINGS???

I've always loved this quote and I got to use it in Elaina & Max's wedding ceremony last weekend (with their full approval). Their wedding involved a planetarium show (@ MiSci in Schenectady), sushi, AND a taco truck!! Betcha wish you had been invited!!

Mariana and Luan chose 8/8 as their wedding day, and Fallsview Park in Cohoes as the place. It was rainy, but you wouldn't know it from the smiles on their faces!

Congrats and best wishes, parabéns, Luan and Mariana!! ♥️🥂🎊

The August rains weren't going to keep these two love birds from getting married! Also, how have I lived in the Capital District this long and never known about the Cohoes Falls?! Gorgeous... and very powerful after a rainy week!

Congrats and all the best, Mariana and Luan!! ♥️🥂🎊
