About
I personalize every ceremony to fit the couples I serve. My belief is that their wedding is all about them and not about me.
I enjoy making the ceremony for each couple I serve special and unique. A ceremony that is designed to fit exactly who they are.

We had a wonderful experience with Shane, communication was great, he responded very quickly to our messages. He guided us through the process and was very caring and professional. He was very open to our wishes and suggestions, from what was said to what was worn on his part, we wanted traditional clerical attire and he was able to provide that for us! He was truly a big part of what made our day run smoothly and special!

Shane was an absolute wonder to work with! From our first meeting with him, I knew he was the perfect person to marry my husband and I! He makes each ceremony unique to each couples personalities and ours was absolutely perfect. He had everyone attending smiling and crying right along with us. We have received so many compliments following our wedding at what an amazing job he did and we couldn’t agree more. He blew us out of the water. My husband and I would recommended him to anyone who wants a special, loving and endearing ceremony that they will never forget. Thank you again Shane!

Pastor Shane did an amazing job officiating our wedding! With less then two months away from the date he was able to meet with us several times to go over our big day in great details. He made everyone feel comfortable at the ceremony! He personalized the ceremony just as my wife and I wanted. Always professional, always on time, always smiling! Great pastor who will do an amazing job officiating any Christian wedding! Thank you Pastor Shane!!!

I customize each ceremony and will work with any couple within reason when it comes to pricing.

I first like to set up a 1 on 1 meeting with them to get a feel for what they are looking for. Then I begin working on their ceremony. E-mailing back and forth as well as phone calls. I am open to meet with couples a many times as they like to craft their perfect ceremony.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am an ordained minister. I attended Bible college and Seminary and pastored for 7 years in Illinois.
