The Special Day

Rev. Joseph strongly believes that your ceremony should have special meaning to you and working together with you, he will make your Wedding, Anniversary,Vow Renewal or Civil Union ceremony memorable for years to come. 

All ceremonies are deeply spiritual and non-denominational and are personalized to meet the needs of every couple and their individual circumstances.

Reverend Joseph will coordinate your ceremony with great care with attention to detail; ensuring that your special ceremony will be remembered for a lifetime.

Every Ceremony is developed on an individual basis. Some couples may be getting married for the first time, while other couples may have been previously married. 

Special sensitivity is given to Inter-faith couples with individual traditions and cultures and to children from a previous relationship.
Often couples from different cultures come together and Reverend Joseph assists the couple with incorporating their own culture in their ceremony to unite their two worlds and families.

Reverend Joseph recognizes that people fall in love with each other regardless of their individual faith and frankly regardless of their parent’s religion; regardless of their ethnic background or sexual orientation.  Loving couples of differing Christian religions and Christian and non-Christian couples are all welcome.

Uniting couples with children from a previous relationship and creating a new family is Reverend Joseph's personal favorite. Children are encouraged to become part of the Ceremony and are welcomed as members of the "new" family.  Parents, other relatives and friends are also encouraged to participate in the ceremony .

Couples with children are guided to create a ceremony in which a special exchange is shared with children.  As examples, a locket or special gift or flowers can be presented to memorialize this blending into a new family.

Many couples have lost someone they dearly loved shortly before their wedding date; perhaps a parent, a grandmother, or a close friend.  It’s common to want to remember our loved ones at the ceremony in a special way, but how to do that without adding a painful sting on such a happy day. Some wedding couples are afraid that a tribute could dampen the happy mood of the wedding day. Others feel that keeping their memory on their wedding day will have an uplifting affect.

The bride and groom together should decide if a remembrance of deceased relatives and friends is appropriate for the their special day.
A simple yet moving gesture is all that is needed to pause to remember your loved ones.

Reverend Joseph will guide you through what would or would not be appropriate for you, with you making the final decision.
