Dr. G is an amazing collaborator. She spent time getting to know me and my husband, and helped to create meaningful vows that we were so pleased to share with our family and friends. They spoke about who we are, the blending of our families and the responsibilities of everyone present to witness the exchange. Guests commented that it was one of the most beautiful ceremonies they had ever witnessed. We are so grateful for Gerry's time and thoughtful care she put into making our ceremony special and memorable. I highly recommend Dr. G.
Dr. Gerry was so welcoming and made the ceremony feel like a taste of home (I am born and raised in Hawaii). Bringing two families together with tying the knot was so special and so peaceful. She also helped us graciously with our paper signing. She brought ALOHA to us and that was the most unforgettable experience for me and my husband!

Dr. Gerry Ebalaroza-Tunnell- Officiant Services, based in Bothell, WA, holds wedding vows with the highest reverence, believing that the words spoken during a marriage ceremony should carry the sacred weight of love, commitment, and intention. Grounded in her doctorate in Consciousness and Transformation and the Guiding Principles of A.L.O.H.A.—Ask, Listen, Observe, Heart-focus, and Adapt—Dr. Gerry emphasizes that these values are not only the foundation of a beautiful ceremony but also the foundation of a lasting marriage. Marriage is one of life's most profound transitions, and she is committed to guiding couples through this sacred journey with care and intention.
As a wedding officiant, Dr. Gerry weaves the essence of Aloha into the ceremony by awakening the breath of life—what she calls The Evolution of AloHā. As couples make their vows in the presence of loved ones, their words are carried through their breath. Breath signifies life, and life is sacred, so the promises exchanged in that moment are sacred, too. Dr. Gerry honors this sacredness by ensuring that every word spoken during the ceremony holds deep meaning and intention. Through her understanding of Aloha, she guides couples in creating a marriage founded on love, compassion, and understanding, ensuring their union is built upon the life-giving power of their shared breath and vows.
