As 2024 comes to a close, I’m reflecting on a year filled with love, milestones, and unforgettable moments. This year, I had the absolute honor of marrying over 60 incredible couples, each with their own beautiful story to tell. 💍💖
I’m beyond humbled to have been named Best Wedding Officiant by Richmond Bride, Washingtonian Magazine, and, to close out the year, Virginia Living Magazine! 🏆✨ This recognition fuels my passion for crafting meaningful ceremonies and celebrating love in all its forms.
This year also brought new adventures! I stepped into my role as Director of Marketing at The Estate at River Run, where I had the privilege of mentoring 5 amazing interns who will no doubt go on to do great things. 👩💻🌟
2024 was a year on the move – thousands of miles driven, countless venues visited, and many fabulous outfits worn. I wrote hundreds of pages of custom scripts, pouring love and intention into every word. 📝💐
Every moment – from the grand celebrations to the quiet exchanges of vows – has filled my heart. Thank you to my couples, colleagues, friends, and family for making this year unforgettable. Here’s to all the love 2025 has in store! ✨❤️

Not only was this couple incredibly special, their wedding was at @eventsatandersonhouse, a location where I’ve planned 📋 weddings, I have done florals 💐at weddings & events, I even led a workshop there with my dear friend @kir2ben 📷 - to officiate felt so good!! I felt comfortable in the space because of my experiences there. You can see by the grandeur it could be scary. 🫣 I’m so grateful for the opportunities my wedding careers have provided!!

I had another super sweet private elopement at @vaughanhouse recently & being there is so magical. I’m so grateful to my first wedding there, @oh.rozz @gethoused, and had to take a look back at their highlight video 😍 If you’re looking for a truly special place to elope or have a microwedding, I couldn’t recommend Vaughn House enough.

Christina & Neill’s engagement photos took me back to my years of living & working in Georgetown. They strolled through my favorite coffee shop @bakedandwireddc and the streets I’ve walked so many times. I can’t wait to celebrate them next month at @pippinhillfarm with @donovangrovesevents @djtobler & @southern_blooms

POV: you have an intimate ceremony in a beautiful garden with only your very favorite humans.
The feeling of intimacy and love at D & A’s wedding was tangible. Lots of happy tears, laughter & joy.
It’s truly an honor to be a part of these events and my heart is so happy looking back at these beautiful photos!
