Raleigh Wedding Officiant
About Ann
Meet Ann McKenzie, Wedding Officiant Serving Raleigh, Cary, Durham & Chapel Hill, NC
As a Raleigh, NC native deeply rooted in the spiritual community since 1987, my journey took a significant turn in 2003 when I lost my husband. Seeking a new direction for my son and me, I transitioned from a 35-year career in biochemistry and public health labs to pursue a more fulfilling path. Now, as an Ordained Minister, Trinity Energy Progression Practitioner, and Reiki Master, I’ve discovered profound joy in officiating weddings, making it my passion.
For me, weddings are an opportunity to craft personalized ceremonies that offer a glimpse into the hearts of the couples I work with. 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 Medieval Friar. It’s my dedication to creating personalized ceremonies that reflect the love stories of each couple, providing guests with a heartfelt connection to their journey.

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!
