CELEBRANT WEDDING CEREMONIES Cindy Matchett will design and officiate a ceremony with you that has personal symbols and words to tell the story of your coupleship, your values and your sense of humor. Together, we will create a sacred event that you will cherish and remember, that truly reflects who you are, and connects you and your community. I have officiated wedding ceremonies for interfaith couples, intercultural couples, same-sex couples, Jewish-Christian couples, couples with Catholic backgrounds, second marriages, non-denominational weddings, outdoor weddings, and for many who feel “spiritual but not necessarily religious.” Click here to learn more about how we do this. Services throughout the Greater Boston area. Contact me, at no obligation, to arrange an introductory appointment. STAY SANE: THE VOICE OF HARMONY AND REASON Feeling a little wedding stress? Just need to talk to someone? Maybe get a little perspective, remember what matters? We can talk by phone or email, or meet over lunch or coffee. Call or email me for support packages! GROUP CLASSES FOR COUPLES Create a shared wedding "vision," brainstorm with others, and gather practical and helpful tools. Leave with a real sense of what you care about and how to apply this to your wedding plans. Male and female perspectives both honored and respected; lots of laughter! Check the News page for upcoming dates. CEREMONIES FOR LIFE Weddings are only one transition ceremony of what used to be many in the complex adventure of our lives. You and I can create meaningful rituals to acknowledge and process any of the significant developments in your life journey, including job transitions, moving, graduations, birthdays, vow renewals, and special achievements.
