About
I am a former United Methodist pastor, ordained in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), and I have served United Church of Christ in California as well. I do both religious and non-religious ceremonies.
I love spending time with people at the most important times of their lives during weddings and funerals.
Colorado has started to tighten restrictions on who may sign a marriage license as an officiant. You can find that list on the state regulations site.
As ordained clergy, my signature on your marriage license is authorized by any state.

Rev. Teri did a beautiful job leading and orchestrating our son’s baby dedication. She listened closely to our wishes and brought them to life in a ceremony that was exactly what we hoped for. We are so grateful for her care, thoughtfulness, and attention to making the day so meaningful.

Teri was a fantastic officiant for our non-religious ceremony in Carbondale, CO. Her knowledge and experience showed throughout, and it was something we leaned on. She seamlessly integrated our requests. The theme of of planting our aspen tree roots together and the blessing centered around peace and joy were beautiful and several guests talked about her message during the reception gathering. We highly recommend working with her if you have the opportunity!

Reverend Teri is wonderful. Her warmth and genuine personality made our wedding perfect. We didn’t change a thing with the vows she presented us. They are so beautiful. We are going to print them and hang them in our house ;). Thank you, Teri 🙏♥️ We feel like you are our true friend now as well!!!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
It all depends on the needs of the family; the price has to be higher for travel outside the Denver/Colorado Springs area, especially if an overnight stay is required. Additionally, attendance at a wedding rehearsal if requested will be included in the price.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to meet with my clients before the service so I can personalize it for them.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Masters of Divinity, 2013 Iliff School of Theology
