~ Officiating Your Love Story ~

“It is important to work with someone with experience and Reverend Shanandoah is one of Sedona’s most prestigious, sought after officiants, known for her customized ceremonies.”

A note from Shanandoah…

I believe the officiant of your ceremony should listen to your desires, dreams and important details that you want incorporated into your Sedona wedding ceremony. They should come with experience, ideas and a true passion to see your hearts desire fulfilled.

I know the significance of your special wedding day, for I constantly remember my own (I was married right here in Sedona). I remember the importance of each detail, the symbolic elements and how it still ripples within our marriage today. I combine my background, training and knowledge to give you a memorable beautiful wedding ceremony. I began facilitating ceremonies in 1985 (I’m amazed that it’s been over 30 years) and stepped into the specialization of wedding ceremonies in 2000. I obtained a Travel/Tourism/Management diploma in 1989, which I still call upon those great organizational skills in business today. I am honored to share over 30 years of ceremony experience with you, I’ll dedicate professionalism, attention to detail, and a desire to make your ceremony unique and remembered for years to come, this is my commitment to you.

Whether it is a sacred elopement, multi-faith beliefs, or an elaborate ceremony I dedicate heart, professionalism and detail into your special day. I’m amazed the decades of ceremony have gone by so quickly, yet I still feel honored each time I am chosen to be a part of a wedding ceremony. It is a sacred day to be a part of and as the honored couple, you deserve all the respect one can bestow on your special day. It is my wish to make your first steps on this journey into marriage a glorious send off!

I believe so much in the joy of sharing ceremony with your loved one, that in 2013 I shared my own ‘Renewal Vows’ or as I like to call them “Continued Vows of Love,” with my dear husband, Rick. We celebrated 15 years by sharing our vows on Tunnel’s Beach, Kauai. It is our goal to share our “Continued Vows of Love” in different places around this amazing planet!
