Kristabeth Atwood
Owner
For 25 years, I’ve been honored to companion people through the transitions of their lives. During my 18 years as a church pastor, I designed and officiated weddings for my congregation and community. Today, I bring my pastor’s heart to my work with people of all identities and spiritual and secular worldviews offering custom wedding ceremonies to celebrate each couple's unique love story.
I currently live in Burlington, Vermont with my husband and dogs, Cider and Nigel. In my free time, I love walking in the woods, reading novels, cooking, or trying to brew the perfect cup of tea!
