Introduction

I am a licensed regularly ordained minister and wedding officiant authorized by the state of Ohio to solemnize marriages. I am professional. I take what I do seriously. I give myself plenty of time to get to the venue so that I arrive early. I provide value. I recently became completed the PREPARE/ENRICH Certification Training. PREPARE/ENRICH is a tool designed to create and sustain strong marriages. PREPARE-ENRICH PROGRAM In September of 2016, I became certified as a Prepare-Enrich facilitator. PREPARE-ENRICH is an online assessment. The assessment tailors itself to the unique stage and structure of each couple's relationship, as well as to the larger cultural context in which they live. Prepare-Enrich is based on: Systems theory, which integrates concepts and principles from Marital and Family Therapy Couple and Family Strengths Model Prevention-oriented approaches Prepare-Enrich consists of two components: 1. Online couple assessment - Primes the couple for relevant and revealing discussion - Identifies strength and growth areas 2. Feedback & teaching relationship skills - Communication and Conflict Resolution - Closeness and Flexibility -Personality Compatibility -Stress Management I am currently offering Prepare-Enrich to couples as part of KRS Wedding Connection. NOTARIZATION SERVICE IS ALSO OFFERED. A wedding is a happy occasion. Seeing the couple and their family so happy makes me happy.

Reverend Karen Shepherd exceeded my expectations. As hectic and busy as wedding planning is, you will not have to worry about Rev. Karen’s role within your wedding ceremony. She is on top of EVERYTHING! She will ensure that you have applied for your marriage license. She will quickly respond and communicate with you regarding any wedding concerns. And she will show up promptly, before your ceremony is scheduled to start. She’s extremely professional and does her job well. Whatever your requests are, she will adapt to them without question or judgment. We could not have found a better Officiant. Thank You Reverend Shepherd!

Details: Wedding • Non-denominational (mentions God) • 51 - 100 guests • Help writing vows will not be needed • English • Officiant will be needed at the rehearsal • Officiant does not need to be present at rehearsal

Working with Karen Shepard was wonderful. She was one of the first officiants to respond to my request, and was very professional. She had a great attitude and personality to match. Her rate was very reasonable and she was available for both the rehearsal and ceremony. It made such a difference because the wedding was so last minute. Thank You very much Ms. Karen and I would highly recommend her to anyone else for her services.

Mrs. Shepard is an amazing officiant! She managed to squeeze our wedding in on short notice, was very receptive to what we wanted, and arrived early for our ceremony. We are very pleased with her services. Thank you again for making our day special for us..and the tissues at the alter. 😀
