Christian Wedding Officiant
Love finds us all in different ways and at different times.
Incorporating your love into your special day should be as unique as your story.
DSM Weddings work with couples individually to create a wedding ceremony that fits their story and personalities by bringing in our work as a Certified Enneagram and Relationship Coach.
About
“When you first fall in love, you think you love the person, but you don’t really. You can’t know the person right away. That takes years. You actually love the idea of the person – and that is always, at first, one-dimensional
and somewhat mistaken.”
- Timothy Keller, The Meaning of Marriage
In a conversation over coffee in the fall of 2021, a friend shared about wedding plans. Finding a wedding officiant was the biggest need they still had to get in place. They wanted to incorporate their faith, however weren't connected with a
local church.
​
After our coffee date, doing some online research about becoming a wedding officiant, I (Erin) reached back out to my friend and offered to officiate their wedding.
​
With prior experience in college ministry, public speaking with a faith aspect was a comfortable fit. It was an incredible joy to be a part of this day for such dear friends! And it was so much fun being a part of the process with them.
If you've found your way here, I'm guessing you're in need of a wedding officiant for your special day (or you know someone who is). My desire is to provide services for those who want to bring an aspect of faith into their wedding day but for whatever reason may not be able to work with a church or pastor to officiate.

DSM Weddings are excited to get to know you as a couple and share in the joy of your wedding ceremony!

Premarital Coaching
Dive Deeper with Enneagram Coaching customized for you!
Understanding your personality, how you show up in stress, and knowing how to work through conflict with one another will be the best gifts you can give to each other for a lifetime of marriage!
We work with couples to help them understand their personalities and how your two personalities will best work together, where the challenges will lie -- and how you can work together to avoid pitfalls.
In Premarital Coaching, the bride and groom each have an individual coaching session to understand more about their Enneagram type. In addition, you will have three couples sessions to help set your marriage up for success!
