Raleigh Wedding Officiant
About Ann
Meet Ann McKenzie, Wedding Officiant Serving Raleigh, Cary, Durham & Chapel Hill, NC
Do you want a ceremony that captivates your friends and family from beginning to end by sharing your love story and memories of how you met and fell in love? I craft a ceremony that reflects your personality and values, one that is all about you. The ceremony will be the highlight of your day creating heartfelt connections for you and your guests. You are in control of what is included, assuring it resonates with your heart and dreams of the ceremony you are envisioning.
I found my true passion in life by connecting with my couples, offering them joyful and fun ceremonies. I've had the privilege of officiating a wide array of ceremonies, from traditional unions to unique celebrations like a Medieval Wedding in a castle where I portrayed a Friar.
As a Raleigh, NC native deeply rooted in the spiritual community since 1987, I decided to pursue a more fulfilling path, becoming ordained through my mentor's church. I felt a strong need to offer weddings to all couples with an open heart when North Carolina legalized same-sex weddings in 2014.
My goal is for the couple to have a stress-free wedding that is truly joyful and fun, something they will always remember. I will help any couple create the wedding ceremony of their dreams. To ask a specific question about the ceremony you desire, get in touch!
