"Barbara made our ceremony unique to our personalities and very special. She helped us explore the how's and the why's of our love and turn it into a ceremony that was exactly what we wanted." ~ Kelly and Craig, married July 2009

"I would recommend Barbara to anyone. She's simply a delight. Barbara and I clicked from the first phone call. She made me feel so comfortable, I felt like I knew her for years." - Jadee and Damian, married May 2009

Your wedding is an artful expression of who you are, both as a couple and as individuals in love. The promises you make in your ceremony are the foundation of your marriage ~ your home. I'm your Officiant and your friend in this process. I delight in your special love story and value your visions for your future. With warmth and attention, I bring my love to your love. Together, we create a ceremony that honors the truth and treasure of your unique union. You'll incorporate elements as they feel true to you: traditions you hold dear, contemporary elements, including possibly creating your own, writing your own vows if you wish, roles for family and friends, music, and more.

I specialize in creative weddings and vow renewals ~ from elegant to sweet to playful! If you have a theme for your wedding, we'll look at drawing your theme through your ceremony elements. I can also become a character in your theme, if you wish, and use my theater background to officiate your wedding as your Jester of the Peace!

What's your wonderful wish?

Enjoy my website at http://JesterOfThePeace.com.

I also offer wedding entertainment through my events business, Applied Theatrics. Character(s) created just for you endear your guests with the themes of your love. See additional photos and stories of my characters for corporate, non-profit & community events at http://AppliedTheatrics.com.

And of course, follow me on Twitter! http://twitter.com/ArtfulOfficiant

Enjoy!
