Celebrating and honouring the events, milestones and love that make up your journey in life is something that should be as personal, unique and beautiful as possible. And because these events are part of your experience, they should reflect your personal tastes, wishes and lifestyle. We don’t believe any church, religious group or other “authority” should dictate how, where or what your celebrations of love and life should include… nor should anyone else.
That’s why we brought together the diverse and professionally trained staff who make up the Celebrate Love – Celebrate Love Officiant Network. Whether your event is in a park, by the ocean, in the mountains, at a banquet hall, civic centre or house of worship, your ceremony will be unique, memorable and respectful of your style, beliefs and traditions, and as individually tailored as you wish.
Your officiant will assist you in planning the ceremony of your dreams — one that reflects who you really are, spiritually, personally, and emotionally.
Our officiants are available for all types of events, ceremonies and milestone occasions, including:
- Weddings
- Commitment Ceremonies
- Baby naming or blessing
- Memorial Services
- Funerals
- Renewal of Vows
- Handfasting
- Adoption
- Elopement

- Family Blending Ceremonies
- Companion animal memorials

…or any other important life event
Celebrate Love – Celebrate Life is a non-denominational, interfaith network of professionally trained, certified and licensed officiants, who come from diverse backgrounds, faith traditions and personal philosophies. However, what we share is a commitment to serving the individuals, couples and families in a very personal, respectful and individualised way. In fact, the spiritual tradition or beliefs of the officiant should not ultimately matter, because your celebration is about you, and should be about YOUR beliefs, YOUR philosophy and YOUR traditions… not theirs.
As a result, whether you want a secular or civil ceremony, a traditional (or non-traditional) Catholic ceremony or nuptial Mass, a traditional Jewish ceremony, a Celtic handfasting, a non-denominational Christian ceremony, a commitment ceremony, a secular yet spiritual wedding, or something very non-traditional, we have the right Officiant for you!
Celebrate Love – Celebrate Life is also committed to Marriage Equality, and is proud to serve those couples in states where marriage equality has been courageously hard fought and won.
All of our Officiants are Licensed Marriage Officiants, and most perform other ceremonies, as well.
