Officiant Grace

Hey Hey Couples, Couples' Fan Clubs and Vendors Supporting Couples!

Do you think love can really last forever? I DO!!! I really do because I have witnessed it.

And yes those famous words spoken on your commitment day can be such an affirmation of WE WILL!! - keep loving ourselves and each other and will commit to continue to learn and grow always.

I have created a power packed couples course called Deepening Your Love. This course is not a “we need fixing” program. It gives you the skills and practices that will keep you aligned, attuned and able to navigate your own inner world and all that life will ask of you individually and together. Please have a listen to this intro video https://youtube.com/shorts/Gt5ooxo9JaE?si=C-MjDEwizqM6EC14 describing the course and check out the page on my website https://www.officiantgrace.com/deepeningyourlovecouplescourse. There you will find:
*The intro three session option
* The twelve session full course
* three free videos to help you explore how this course can support you in growing your love through the years and chapters ahead.

This is my passion project. My call to purpose is so much more than just getting you to your wedding or commitment day. I have been steeped in conscious relationship training and practice for over thirty-five years. My mentors have been some of the great relationship masters both modern and those who have shared the ancient wisdom of consciousness and empowered love through the ages.

For those of you who are not married or even single and wanting to create a conscious relationship in your life the course can be custom adapted to meet your needs.

As I say so often, enduring love is life’s greatest treasure. It is so worth investing in and I can’t wait to extend my hand and support you in Deepening Your Love.

K & S were joyfully married yesterday on a soft tranquil day at the delightful Dunn Gardens surrounded by so much beauty and a small devoted community of their Nearest and Dearest family and friends. They met at work, became instant friends and then lovers and both proclaim that they would rather be with each other than anyone on earth. Their ceremony was filled with the presence of God through prayers, a lovely poem written by S's mom and read by his sister, tender traditional vows and ring exchanges and an incredibly sweet White Dove release at the end. S's mom raised and trained doves and there could not have been a more poignant and beautiful way to honor her spirit than to see these lovely birds fly off together, mated for life, to inspire K & S as they also begin their married "mated for life" journey. Thank you dear S & K for the honor of officiating for you. You put so much thoughtful creativity and intention into your ceremony and gave me such a strong confidence in your future as husband and wife. And what a vendor team led by the gracious Victoria - the gardens are a perfect wedding setting that also involve some intricate logistics and lots of steps and trolly pulling through forested walkways to bring forth all the beauty and elegance of this very special couple and their love celebration. Oh summer, you sure have beautifully blessed so many couples this year and I am incredibly fulfilled to have been there to affirm the "We Do's" - especially when they are as sincerely and exuberantly expressed as today. gardens






stay tuned for full vendor list.

This is what twelve years of loving each other looks like when it is finally your wedding day. Beauty Abounding!!! K&K met as friends, fell in love, built a life together, took a six year journey through PHD studies and trips around the world, fell even more deeply in love with their fur child Calvin and were so ready for their grand celebration. Powerful vows, rings blessed, by family and friends and the whole community standing to declare “We Do” agree to support you always. And a vendor team extaordinaire made all their dreams come true. Can you imagine the glory of being embraced by those flowers. I was swooning before we even began. A hummingbird came to add its blessing - a sure sign that beloved grandparents from heaven were there.

Mount Baker Magnificence for C & D and twenty five of their nearest and dearest people. They came from New Jersey, Florida, New York and even Denmark to help this absolutely sweet couple get married. We did a short hot and rocky trail climb in fancy sparkly shoes, suits and ties and sweated under the perfect sunny skies all in the name of love. It’s such an incredible joy and honor to support young lovers who truly have the heart, the soul and the depth of understanding of what it means to make lifelong commitments. I wish you all the happiness in the world C & D and thank you to the best of the best photographer and videographers for capturing every single drop of the happiness, the tears, the laughter and the memories. There is nothing more wonderful than working with extraordinary professionals who also know how to help our clients relax and enjoy every moment of their wedding ceremony and celebration.

Such an incredible honor to Celebrate the life of this beautiful woman. S was a brilliant, bright light and a force of creative, love-filled passion for life, her work, community and especially her husband and children. Gone way too soon. So many came to say their farewells and to share sweet, funny and heart-touching stories. As her oldest daughter spoke a beautiful soft white butterfly entered the tent over S's casket, gently flew by her daughter and then by the large photo of her and then disappeared. I believe so strongly that our Loved Ones live on even after death and find ways to let us know they are with us. Hug your family, friends and anyone you can get your hands on...we never know when it will be our time to depart this world. Thank you to S's friend C and her husband H for trusting me to guide you all through this utterly tender ceremony to honor your beautiful S. May you all be held in such love and S may all that light that is YOU now be free to be shared with the whole cosmos.
S's parents are from Hong Kong and they chose her resting place just down the slope from Bruce Lee's grave. We know that Bruce will be her guardian angel and will watch over her as they both dance through the universe. Thank you to the other family members and friends who contributed to this amazing celebration and to the staff at Lakeview Cemetery for the kind caring attention to all the details of laying S to rest.
