Just Marriage

As the name of my business suggests, I am available to provide marriage services to all couples, regardless of gender. For me, it is also a matter of providing a "just" marriage that is available to all. I am an ordained minister of the United Church of Christ (www.ucc.org), who also happens to be openly gay. Originally from the SF Bay area, I moved to Tulsa in 2009 to pastor a local church until

their closing in 2012. I have since pastored two other churches until they closed, served (and still serve) as pulpit supply for churches, helped found a non-profit Cafe in Owasso, and served a couple of years as the Executive Director of the Tulsa Interfaith Alliance. My weddings are personalized to your needs, and are designed to reflect the commitments and relationship of the couple. I am available to provide guidance and assistance in crafting a service that takes into account the beliefs of the couple, any family arrangements, as well as personal, familial, or communal traditions. I have experience with a wide array of service types and venues ranging from church-based "traditional" services to outdoor handfastings; weddings with over 100 in attendance, or private ceremonies on the courthouse steps. I am available to perform legally-recognized unions, as well as unions without legal recognition. I do not offer pre-marital counseling, but can refer, if desired. I am available to travel anywhere in the USA, and am willing to consider ceremonies in any venue. I am fluent in sign language (see-sign).
