And because one post just isn’t enough — here are a few more photos of the beautiful couples I’ve had the honor of marrying. Every love story is unique, powerful, and worth celebrating. I’m truly grateful to be part of these moments, especially within my LGBTQIA+ community. 💛

I honestly have to pinch myself sometimes — it means so much to do this work and to be trusted with such meaningful moments. Thank you for letting me be part of your love stories.

Happy Pride Month 🌈

Being human is already a lot — we’re all just trying to live our best lives, do our best with what we’ve got, and find some joy along the way. That alone can be hard enough without fear, judgment, or hate.

To anyone who feels alone, misunderstood, or like they have to hide who they are: You are not alone. You are seen, you are valued, and you are loved — exactly as you are. You deserve to feel safe, to feel free, and to belong.

Let’s choose compassion over cruelty. Let’s make space for each other. Let’s keep showing up for love.

Though I’ve been quiet on social media, I’ve never stopped doing what I love — marrying the most amazing couples, and continuing to celebrate and stand with my LGBTQIA+ community. Always here, always proud to be part of your love stories. 💛

It was hard to get in the Halloween spirit this year, but we rallied, went through our costume bins, and did last-minute costumes! 🤣

Scary, creepy clown, and George Michael was the best we could do!

How fast a year goes by. Today, it has been one year since our Dad passed.

Some days, it doesn’t seem real. Our grief has been a roller coaster of emotions, and today, it feels surreal.

My relationship was complicated with my Dad, but he was Dad, and there are days when I miss him and mourn what our relationship could have been.

I hope he is at peace.❤️

Our senior community is in great need of help and donations. M & I have been working with Land of Sky Area Agency on Aging, delivering supplies and food to our seniors. We are teaming up with the ASPCA (Melissa’s company)and coordinating pet food delivery for Buncombe County and surrounding areas.

My heart is with our seniors, and if you know of someone in need, please get in touch with me! I can assist with resources.

The North Carolina Association on Aging (NCAOA), North Carolina Coalition on Aging (NCCOA), and North Carolina Association of Area Agencies on Aging (NC4A) are reaching out to you today with a heartfelt request for support as we come together to help older adults and aging service providers recover from the recent devastation caused by Hurricane Helene. The beautiful region of Western North Carolina has been hit hard, and the need for assistance is urgent.

As you may know, Hurricane Helene brought heavy winds and torrential rain, leading to severe flooding and widespread damage across Western NC. Many families have lost their homes, businesses have been disrupted, and essential services have been affected. In the wake of such destruction, it is crucial that we unite to provide support and resources to those in need.

To aid in the recovery efforts, NCAOA, NCCOA and nc4a will raise funds for the Area Agencies on Aging in Western NC, which have the greatest need. All proceeds will go directly to providing relief. We aim to raise funds to assist older adults with their basic needs and support local aging service providers working tirelessly on the ground.
Your support, whether it’s a financial contribution or spreading the word within your networks, is invaluable. Every dollar raised will play a significant role in helping communities in Western North Carolina heal and rebuild.
We have created a Hurricane Relief webpage and are now accepting donations.
Together, we can make a difference and show the resilience of Western North Carolina.
Thank you for considering this opportunity to support Western NC’s older and disabled adults during this challenging time.

When I was 23 years old I moved from Ohio to Los Angeles with whatever could fit in my car. It was a lonely place. There were many days when I just wanted to pack it up and go home.

Then I joined an acting class and the coach was Joe Palese. It was the first time since being in Los Angeles I felt a sense of home.

He created community and a safe space to be who you are. Since we were all so far away from our own families we became family to each other.

Today will be 3 years since Joe’s passing.

I have a picture of him hanging in my office so I’m always reminded of all the great lessons he taught me. I will always be grateful for his mentorship & kindness.

I’m still performing in a sense when I’m officiating my weddings and every time imposter syndrome creeps in I hear Joe say” No one else is you so bring you to the scene,” in this case to the ceremony.

We are all unique and have something incredible to offer the world so find your gift and give it away.

Cheers to you Joe! I hope we meet again on the other side. ❤️

Thank you to all of my couples who have chosen me to be your wedding officiant! Past, Present & Future! I have so much love for you! ❤️⁠

My couples truly care about their wedding ceremony and they want to feel a genuine connection with the minister they choose to marry them. I too, want to feel that same connection with my couples. ⁠

The first step in the process is to do a video chat and meet each other. I want to get to know you, hear your love story and get an idea of what your vision is for your wedding day. It's a chance to see if we are a good fit for one another.⁠

It feels wonderful when there is a genuine connection and we both feel excited to work together. ⁠

It's your wedding day! I care deeply about creating a ceremony that speaks to the heart of your relationship.

If you want an intentional, customized ceremony for one of the most special days of your life, then look no further! I got you! 😉⁠

I'm a q***r woman. I am deeply spiritual but not religious. I have a loud laugh and sometimes talk too much when I get nervous but not during your ceremony of course. Ha! I genuinely want to get to know you and I value deep, authentic connections.
