Changing lives is easy!

You would think it takes sheer genius, or a miracle, or a huge revelation, to truly cause a shift in someone’s life, right?  Not so much.  Try a simple, single act of giving, and see what that does – not only for the person receiving your gift, but for you – when you take part [...]

Thanks is for Giving

I was reminded of this by a friend and colleague of mine, who has written (and is soon to be arriving in bookstores) a book called   1000 Mitzvahs:  How Small Acts of Kindness Can Heal, Inspire, and Change your Life.  I’ve always admired Linda for realizing that sometimes it is the small things that [...]

Danielle and Garrett – Why I do what I do

Danielle and Garrett are the perfect reason why I do what I do.

Many colleagues ask me why I invest so much time in my individual couples. They insist that I can be just as popular, and just as busy, but I don’t need to make my couples a part of my life.
WRONG!!!!
Without a couple [...]

A beautiful blend of both…

Kathy emailed me a year ago, as she and her fiance, Drew, and their Moms were coming to Fort Lauderdale, and were looking for someone to co-officiate their wedding.  As of yet, they didn’t have a venue, but both Kathy and Drew, an Interfaith couple, each had very different “must-have’s” in their wedding, and finding [...]

Delia and Mitch’s weeklong wedding celebration

No rests for the weary!  Brett and Andrea’s wedding was certainly a highlight last weekend, but the rush back across the alley to be back for Sunday morning’s event was well worth the drive!
Delia called me just a few weeks ago.  Her “real” wedding was planned for March 7th, this coming Sunday, but her in-laws, [...]

Some things were just meant to be…

It’s been a busy year.  Incredibly busy.  And, fortunately for me, almost every weekend during the year has been booked, sometimes with one, but often with even 2 or 3 events in one weekend.  There hasn’t been much room for anything spontaneous (let alone blog writing), but, last Saturday was just – different.
It was a [...]

Cheryl and Prav’s Jewish-Hindu Islamorada Wedding Weekend

People always ask me..”What is the most unique wedding you have ever performed?”  I’m assuming they want to know about exotic locations I’ve been to, but unique weddings means something very different to me.
When I think about my most unique weddings, I immediately think about the unique relationships I have formed, not only with my [...]

My Lovely Litt Ladies!

Yes, this blog entry is long overdue, and although it is really about ONE very special and lovely Litt lady, it really is about all of them, because it wouldn’t have been what it was without the 3 Litt ladies, Barri, Tracy, and Jamie.  True – as I sit and type this, just writing their [...]

A Marriott kind of weekend!

This past weekend, I had the pleasure of performing 2 weddings that were very special to me. Bevin and Brian were married at the Marriott Biscayne Bay, and Elaine and Larry were married at the Marriott in Marco Island. It’s funny that they were both at Marriotts, because one of the first things [...]

Double Header weekend – what fun!

What a busy weekend it was!
I love a day that starts with a wedding, and Saturday was no exception! Matthew and Valeria were married at the Juno Beach Park, in a private beach ceremony with their closest friends surrounding them. The weather on Saturday was stormy, and I was really concerned, driving to [...]
