This lovely lady was so sweet. She came into our last minute, DIY home wedding without judgement or care of how untraditional we did things. She jumped right in and even adapted when our baby daughter was fussing through the ceremony. She was so helpful and understanding throughout the whole process of organizing and designing the vows. I definitely would recommend her as an officiant. Thank you Mary!

Mary Beth was phenomenal to work with. She was on time, arrived prepared and, most importantly a warm and pleasant person making this joyous occasion even better. I highly recommend her!

Mary Beth saved my business by coming in and officiating a ceremony for me that I had to miss due to a death in my family. She was very willing to take on this wedding with only mere hours of prep time before it was to begin. As one chaplain to another, I couldn't have received more compassion and a Can-Do spirit as she stepped in for me and carried off the wedding without a hitch! I will always be grateful and thankful to have met her at a very low point in our family's life and forever after as we develope and grow as friends and co-officiants. Thank you, thank you, thank you Mary Beth! All my love, Robi

I inquire as to their preferences about the flow of the service. I submit a proposal of service if they have not chosen a type of service.

I have a Master of Divinity; I am an ordained minister and a board certified chaplain. I have officiated weddings through Thumbtack, at the hospital where I serve as chaplain and in my community.
