FAQs
Are you licensed to perform marriages in Ontario?
Yes, I am licensed with the Office of the Registrar General to perform ceremonies in Ontario. You can confirm my registration on the Ontario government website by searching for my last name.
What does a metaphysical officiant do differently?
A metaphysical officiant honors everyone's spiritual path, knowing each is valuable. We are trained in the Canadian International Metaphysical Ministry and licensed to solemnize marriages under Ontario's Marriage Act. We work with couples from all beliefs and traditions, not just one faith.
Do you perform ceremonies outside Ottawa?
I am licensed only in Ontario, so I cannot perform ceremonies in Quebec. However, I do work with couples throughout Ontario.
