I have never and will never officiate a wedding ceremony on a plantation. When I moved to North Carolina three years ago I truly was horrified to learn that plantations were wedding venues. I had no idea that there was a movement to decrease the influence of plantations on wedding sites. While I hate for these businesses to lose money, that’s the least that can happen given the blood that was shed on the land.

It may seem like a good idea at the time, and you get what you pay for has been my experience. A professional officiant is someone who has been seminary trained. Not Internet ordained.

Nothing is inconsequential. Every grain of sand holds amazing secrets.
Each event contains mysterious messages. Every encounter with another
being is a point of contact upon which the universe pivots. . . . From
this perspective, we come to the realization that every piece is
integral in the unfolding of creation, including us."

— Rabbi David Cooper

This is from master teacher Brene Brown. Relationships take ongoing work. Communication is a core skill. And choosing love over fear.

Congratulations to Emily and Clif.
