About
I am a pastor with nearly 20 years of experience officiating weddings in a variety of venues from churches, to vineyards, to backyards. I love working with couples to create a ceremony that is meaningful and feels personal to them. As a progressive, open and affirming Lutheran (ELCA) pastor it brings me joy to be able to invite God's presence into wedding ceremonies from people of any faith (or no faith) background. Premarital counseling using the Prepare-Enrich tool is available, if desired. I am licensed to officiate weddings in DC, VA, MD and WVA.

Rev. Meredith is an absolute gem! Her kindness and progressive outlook shine brightly. We were incredibly grateful for her warmth and willingness to officiate our wedding at the last minute, even in freezing weather. She made our day extra special with her genuine love and dedication to her profession. Highly recommend!

Reverend Keseley was a pleasure to work with and have at our wedding. She was always punctual and communicative, and her demeanor at the ceremony was warm and engaging. So many of my guests made pleased comments to me! Thank you so much!
