Introduction: Hi, I am KT Valkyrie, and with Shirley, my sister's help, we started Celebrating Your Life five years ago and made it through the pandemic. Shirley touched a lot of our brides and grooms. I am sadden to share that she had a massive stroke last year and she is learning how to deal with her "new normal." I miss her terribly. THANK YOU, HOUSTON AND WEDDING RULE PUBLICATION, FOR PLACING KT AND CELEBRATING YOUR LIFE IN THE TOP 14 OFFICIANTS IN THE HOUSTON, TEXAS, AREA. WE ARE PROUD AND APPRECIATE ALL WHO THOUGHT ENOUGH TO PLACE THIS HONOR ON US. We respect all diversity, traditions, cultures, and your vision for your wedding, renewal, and elopement ceremony - and your life tribute/memorial service as well. You ask, "Why should customers hire us"? We didn't start with Thumbtack, so we look like we haven't been active with couples. We have made dreams come true for over 50 couples. Please take a look in the Look Book section of our website. You will see many of the ceremonies KT has performed, including handfasting, superhero weddings, and several sunrise mornings on the beach of Galveston Island. We have also included some of our reviews from these weddings. We are proud of our couples and hope these tributes convince you we're worth a look! Our base rate for my services is $300. This fee covers consultations, creating a ceremony of your vision, travel, attendance at rehearsal as needed, returning the license to the appropriate county office by certified mail, and guiding the rehearsal, if needed, and ceremony. See the payment options below. We offer discounts for seasoned citizens 65 or older, first responders, teachers, and those who serve in the military. Please ask. We are TDCJ approved, and recently we were nominated as a candidate for Best Wedding Officiant in the annual OutSmart Magazine Gayest and Greatest 2022 Readers Choice Awards. I believe a wedding is a shout-out for Hope and Love! We intend to be around for a very long time and will be with you every step of the way, promise! I also believe a life lived needs to be celebrated. So I am ordained minister who works with family in grief as they prepare the life celebration of a loved one. I work with the entire family as desired, I create a life tribute that celebrates the loved one's life respectfully. I walk through the preparation, conduct the service and, if applicable, guide the gravesite or internment service. Life Tribute Memorial is a type of end-of-life ceremony where people come together to celebrate the unique life of the deceased. These services can be created to fit a "traditional funeral" venue or can be created to celebrate your perfectly imperfect loved one. Please reach out for a free consultation no matter wedding or funeral.

I have no words to describe how my wife and I are incredibly satisfied with KT work. She is a very experienced officiant. She gave many suggestions about the ceremony, and all her speech during the wedding was very thoughtful in a point that all my guests were talking about it and how they were deeply touched for her words. She also did a great job learning about our love story (ex.: how we met). She does a great job too helping to write the vows. I really recommend KT services. She is the best.

Details: Wedding • Non-denominational (mentions God) • 21 - 50 guests • Help writing vows will not be needed • English • Officiant will not be needed at the rehearsal • Officiant does not need to be present at rehearsal

Dear Rafael and Gricelda, what kind words! I enjoyed every step of our planning journey. You and our lovely family were extremely welcoming. They love you so much. I hope the tacos were great and the beer was cold and the music stirred your souls. Take care and stay in touch!

KT was the perfect officiant for our ceremony. From the start, she was exceptionally responsive and helped tailor our event to exactly how we wanted it to be. She was professional, receptive, and tactful and I could not recommend her more.

It is with great pleasures to write a review about my experience working with Ms KT Valkyrie. There are so much I can say. Ms KT is the most professional, respectful, understanding, kind, educated person that I’ve met with a heart of gold. My husband and I had plans to have a beautiful ceremony with lots of friends and family around however unforeseen circumstances didn’t allow us to do so however Ms. KT made the moment so personal and special and meaningful to us. I can go on and on and on but I would definitely recommend to anyone out there looking for someone professional yet so warm and gentle to definitely choose her with no regrets or second thought. I already told her God willing on our 1 year anniversary she will be our officiant to bless our marriage again. Love u Ms KT and God bless u forever and always ❤️❤️❤️ thank you from the bottom of my heart for being the person that you are.

Details: Elopement • Christian • 20 guests or fewer • Help writing vows will not be needed • English • Officiant will not be needed at the rehearsal • Officiant does not need to be present at rehearsal

Thank you for your kind words. I hope you know you can reach out and keep me up-to-date. I would be honored to be your officiant and truly believe your courageous heart will be lighter next year - one day at a time.

We had the best experience ever! Her opening consult was fantastic. We immediately knew that we had the right person! She showed up on time and was even extra helpful on the day of the wedding to help with a couple of things during setup. Such a sweet woman! 5 out of 5 for sure without even a thought!!!
