Introduction
It brings me great joy to curate personalized ceremonies that honor and celebrate Love unions!

I take care to ensure couples feel seen and their community included (if desired) as they celebrate this momentous occasion.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Ebony! From start to finish, she made our ceremony an unforgettable experience rooted in love, culture, and tradition. She beautifully wove African rituals and our deep love for African American culture into every part of the ceremony, making it a true celebration of Black Love. Ebony took the time to understand our love story and shared it with such warmth, authenticity, and grace that our family and friends were deeply moved. The way she honored our ancestors, uplifted our families, and brought our community into the ceremony was beyond powerful—it was pure magic. Our wedding was not just an event; it was a cultural and spiritual experience that felt like home. If you are looking for an officiant who honors tradition while celebrating the uniqueness of your love, look no further than Ebony. We are forever grateful for the love and energy she poured into our special day! Lexi and Vince Oghobaase #BlackLove #AfricanTraditions #UnforgettableCeremony

I could not have dreamed of a better officiant than Ebony. She was thoughtful, caring, organized, and a joy to work with. She took time to get to know our story, from both myself and my husband's perspective, and was able to develop a ceremony that felt truly authentic to both of us. She took into account our cultural backgrounds, our personalities, and the vision of what we wanted. She curated the ceremony so that it was just the right length, with a mixture of soulful, heartfelt, and funny. We heard over and over again from our guests how beautiful the ceremony was and how wonderful Ebony was. I feel so blessed that she gave us the gift of marrying us.

We feel so lucky to have had Ebony as the officiant to our ceremony. In the lead up to the ceremony itself, Ebony took time to ask us intentional questions and to gather information about all the things that matter to my husband and I in our love for each other, in our partnership, and in our communities. Ebony is truly an active listener and really made us feel seen and heard in all our wishes and desires for what our ceremony could be. She beautifully incorporated the important elements we brought up in our conversations, and customized the ceremony based on things like our values, commitments, dreams, and the energy we hoped for in our ceremony. She also took on the challenge to incorporate my husband and I’s different cultural traditions into the ceremony, which was something really important to us as we both come from vastly different parts of the world (the Middle East and Latin America). Ebony infused the ceremony itself with so much spirit and passion. As a speaker, she is truly compelling and has a gift for bringing together the room. She stirred up our beloved guests by including them in the ceremony and giving them space to participate as we had hoped for (for example with a call and response). We heard from so many loved ones afterwards that they had expected a standard, run of the mill kind of ceremony, but found themselves instead moved to tears of joy and grateful to be a part of our moment. We credit Ebony for creating the space in our ceremony for our loved ones to witness and accompany us in the journey, the blooming, and the union of our love in such an unforgettable way. My husband and I wholeheartedly recommend Ebony to serve as the officiant for your special day.

Ebony was a critical part of our wedding several years ago and was just awesome in general. Specifically, she wrote and facilitated a jumping-the-broom ceremony for my wife and me that included a beautiful speech highlighting the significance of the ceremony and what it meant to us as a couple. It was one of the highlights of an amazing day, and I even had attendants asking for a copy of her speech afterward. She has a calm and steadying presence that really helped on the day that could have been stressful and also helped out with some parts of our wedding that she didn't have to! 5 stars aren't enough; she's a great speaker, extremely professional, and I highly recommend!
