Ceremonies
Ceremonies offer an important opportunity to pause and honor significant life events.
As an ordained interfaith minister, I work with people from all faiths and no faith, and with many couples and families who are interfaith. I work with people from a Christian background who are not associated with a church. By closely listening to you, I craft custom ceremonies that reflect you and your loved ones.
I offer weddings, baby blessings, funerals as well as ceremonies for beloved pets.

Client Reviews
Wonderful.
"We had the pleasure of having Reverend Sara officiate our wedding. She went above and beyond our expectations. She met with us and gave us handouts to complete and customized the ceremony for us. Would recommend her for your wedding."
— Chris & Cecilia Boyd
Rev. Sara was amazing.
"My wife and I scrambled to find someone who understood us. We found Sara, and she was able to understand us quicker and better than anyone else. An initial phone call followed by a video conference was all she needed to write our beautiful ceremony. We had multiple compliments on how beautiful and meaningful our ceremony was. Thanks again Sara, you rock!!"
— William & Catherine Dyess

Vows
Your vows are the most important element of your wedding ceremony. They are the moment you express from your heart your love for your spouse and the highest aspirations for your marriage.
I provide vow templates to help you. Please click here for information on writing your vows.
Conversations on Marriage
I want you to have a great wedding and a wonderful marriage.
I provide Conversations on Marriage to give you a strong start. One guided conversation comes with your service, and could include a Relationship Inventory, Marriage Visioning, or a Communications Exercise to help give your marriage a strong start.
Baby Blessings
The birth of a child is a profound beginning.
Baby blessings provide an opportunity to celebrate with the whole family, spanning traditions when there are different religious or cultural traditions in the family. Baby blessings can include a naming ritual, readings, music, remembrance of those not present, prayer, vows of parents and godparents, blessing with water, and other creative or traditional elements. Each baby blessing is created and personalized for your family. They occur at the venue of your choice.
To inquire about scheduling your Baby Blessing, please email me at sara@reverendsara.com.
Funerals
The depth of our sorrow reflects the courage and fullness with which we loved.
There is nothing more difficult than losing someone we love. Taking the time to honor and celebrate the life of a person who has died can help those who are left behind find comfort, peace, and a way to go forward with hope.
I offer funerals for people of varied religious and spiritual backgrounds. By listening to the story of a person’s life, I craft personalized funerals or celebrations of life that are warm, meaningful and heartfelt. This can include music, poetry, eulogies, readings and prayer. This is done at the location of your choice.
To inquire about my availability, please email me at sara@reverendsara.com.
I offer funerals for Harrell Funeral Homes in Austin, Dripping Springs and Kyle, Texas.
