About

Ordained minister that will perform wedding ceremonies for any couple, love is love! Small intimate ceremony? Backyard wedding with family and friends? An elopement with just the two of you? This sounds like a perfect fit for me! Most of my ceremonies have consisted of this.. short,sweet, and to the point! Most of my ceremonies are non denominational but I mold the needs to fit my couple. I give many examples of vows and ring ceremonies so it feels like YOUR wedding. I want this to be a personal ceremony, like we have known each other for a long time. Let me help make your special day even more special. What started out as a favor to my best friend, turned into a part time job I really love! I had always performed weddings for friends and since joining thumbtack, I have performed weddings for people I have never met. I love meeting these new couples, getting to know their love story, and helping them create something beautiful for the big day.

Erika is very professional and very quick to respond. She wrote the perfect ceremony, taylored to us for our recent wedding ceremony. She is passionate about loving people. We made changes regarding location and went from a private ceremony to including family. She was happy to accommodate our changes. Even the last minute ones. My Uber canceled, so I was late to our ceremony. Erika was very sweet. She had a calming presence and great energy. We were very touched by her uplifting and inspiring words. Thank you, Erika!

FAQs

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When I start out with a new customer I send a brief questionnaire that helps me get to know the couple. I wan the ceremony to be personal and also have some involvement from the couple. After I write the ceremony I will send it to the couple for review before the big day! This can all be done via email, text, and phone call. But, if the couple wants to meet in person before the big day, we can do that as well!
What types of customers have you worked with?
I have worked with all ages, same sex couples, 2nd marriages, non denominational, non religious, and elopements! All different customers and I can meet all their needs.
