About
Welcome, and thank you for stopping by. I’m an experienced, professional wedding officiant with 13 years in business and over 500 ceremonies officiated. I serve couples of all backgrounds with ceremonies that reflect who you are and the love you share.
I officiate:
- Religious (single-faith, interfaith, non‑denominational)
- Spiritual but not religious
- Secular/civil, humanistic, and cultural
- Elopements, micro, small, and large weddings
- Vow renewals, commitment ceremonies, and handfastings
- Legal pronouncements and signings
Every ceremony can be customized, and you’ll have the opportunity to review and approve your script, with optional vow-writing assistance and rehearsals. I also offer day-of coordination for smaller weddings at private residences, venues, and parks.
Please note: I no longer officiate sunrise ceremonies in Shenandoah National Park or in correctional facilities.
I am available to officiate Celebrations of Life, Memorials and Funerals, and Baptisms & Baby Blessings. Please inquire about pricing.

Diane gave us such an incredible and intimate ceremony. She is so kind and made us feel comfortable, answering any questions we could have had along the way. When I first contacted her she wanted to know our story and who we are and it made the ceremony feel even more special knowing that she had a glimpse. The marriage license was delivered promptly to the county and we didn't have to worry about a thing. We would highly recommend Diane! :)

Reverend Diane officiated our ceremony in June 2026. Her work was beyond words — she helped us create a beautiful and incredibly personal ceremony and guided us through every step. She has tons of experience and it showed in how carefully she thought through even the smallest details. We can’t recommend her enough!!

Absolutely loved working with the Rev. Diane. She has tons of helpful information on writing vows and wrote an absolutely beautiful ceremony for our elopement. She has a very calming energy and never felt rushed.

We couldn’t have been happier with Rev. Diane officiating our wedding. She was extremely knowledgeable, was quick to respond, and offered additional services to things we didn’t even think about for the wedding. On the day of, Rev Diane was on time if not early, made sure all logistics were set up correctly for the ceremony, and even helped us during the ceremony by giving subtle hints when it was our time to speak! Rev Diane is a great Officiant and she will definitely take care of any/all your wedding needs.
Thank you so much!!! -John and Bree

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have a standard pricing system. Most weddings start at $350.00 to $450.00. Rehearsals starts $100.00-$200.00 depending on venue location and size of wedding party. Elopements (couple only) and small elopement weddings (less than 10 guests) start at $150.00-$300.00 depending on venue location and length of ceremony. Mileage is charged at the federal mileage rate per mile roundtrip to the venue and is usually included in above listed fees.
I am providing customized and personalized ceremonies at this rate. The rate includes an in person meeting (or video chat if couple’s live out of the area) with the couple for us to get to know one another which makes for a more intimate ceremony. I do my best to work with the couple's budget. If you do not want a customized and personalized ceremony please inquire about my fees.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I usually have a telephone consultation with the couple that is complementary. Once the couple hires me and retains the date and time with a non-refundable deposit, I go to work for them. We usually set up an in person meeting over coffee and tea (wedding consultation) where I review necessary paperwork and obtain the details of the wedding, and assist the couple in building their ceremony. Most importantly, this is the couple's and my opportunity to get to know one another so that the day of the ceremony there is already a bond established between us. If I am requested to attend or conduct the rehearsal this gives us another opportunity to develop a closer relationship.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
In order to be a clergy in good standing with my faith community I must complete continuing education hours and adhere to a professional code of conduct. My clergy in good standing credentials are renewed yearly.
