Custom Ceremonies

Having a custom ceremony wasn’t important when we started the wedding process, but now that it's over, I’m thrilled we went that way. We’ve heard from so many guests saying how touched they were by our ceremony, how personal it was, and even that it was the best they’ve ever witnessed.

Stress-free ceremony planning

With over 400 ceremonies completed and 13+ years officiating I have developed a process that helps me to deeply understand the ceremony while not adding stress or taking up too much of your time.
01
Get To Know You
We discuss your vision for the event, exploring the feeling you want to experience and the meaning or message you hope your ceremony will convey.
02
Plan The Program
We tailor every element of your ceremony, exploring sample rituals, reading libraries, cultural and faith traditions, blessings, remembrances and more.
03
Dial In The Details
We go through a comprehensive event checklist covering site design, day-of logistics, vendor collaborations, guest specifics and officiant information.
04
Review The Program
You’ll receive a detailed outline of the ceremony, including script suggestions, samples and prompts as well as logistical directions and action cues.
05
Rehearse Your Ceremony
We meet for a virtual run-through, reviewing the program from start to finish along with advice and practical tips for you and your officiant.
06
You’re Ready To Write

We wanted to create our own ceremony but were overwhelmed by all the possibilities. Hannah helped us narrow down our options and aided us in creating exactly the lighthearted, personal ceremony we hoped for. She was always easy to communicate with and quick to respond. We loved our ceremony.

Carolyn + Pete Venue: Amherst College Johnson Chapel – Amherst, MA

Having a custom ceremony wasn’t important when we started the wedding process, but now that it's over, I’m thrilled we went that way. We’ve heard from so many guests saying how touched they were by our ceremony, how personal it was, and even that it was the best they’ve ever witnessed.

Craig + Karin Venue: The Mount - Lenox, MA

We can’t say enough about working with Hannah! She was responsive to all of our questions and needs, and genuinely thrilled to help us make our big day as special and unforgettable as possible. One guest described our ceremony as the "best modern wedding" he had ever seen.

Matt + Meghan Venue: Wickham Park - Manchester, CT

We instantly felt comfortable with Hannah and trusted her with our ceremony. We didn't worry because we knew we were in good hands. Hannah provided a lot of extras that made her well worth the cost. The ceremony is the most important part of your wedding so invest in someone awesome!

Megan + Ben Venue: Montague Retreat Center - Montague, MA

Working with Hannah was the most wonderful part of the whole planning process. At first, we had no idea what we wanted for a ceremony. She got to know us and had us fill out questionnaires. When Hannah sent us the first draft, I was amazed! It was everything we hadn't known we wanted.

Maria + Jason Venue: Allyson's Orchard - Walpole, NH

I thought we could orchestrate an interfaith ceremony ourselves. We eventually sought experience and were overjoyed to find Hannah to structure a custom ceremony. She was responsive to our questions, had an incredible turn-around time and was always excited for the next steps.
