Rev. Pat Werk
Owner
I have been an ordained non-denominational minister since 2005. I truly love creating personalized celebrations that mirror the vision, beliefs and relationship of the couples I work with. Each couple has their own story and finding the best way to reflect this in their wedding ceremony is an inspiring process.
I respect and welcome people of all faiths, beliefs and traditions, as well as those who are non-religious, or from a different spiritual background from my own.
With more than 10 years worth of experience as an officiant, I can help you plan and carry out your perfect wedding day.
