Rev. Janet Ring

Santa Cruz

and

Monterey

I serve the Santa Cruz, Monterey County, and Silicon Valley areas, and also travel out of state to perform weddings. Whether you are choosing a religious, non-religious, spiritual, or civil ceremony, you will always receive the personalized attention and care that makes your wedding ceremony special.

I received my ordination as an Interfaith Minister from One Spirit Interfaith Seminary in New York City, which was the culmination of over 20 years of spiritual practice and personal growth work. In addition to performing weddings and other sacred ceremonies, I do spiritual counseling sessions with individuals and couples.

My professional background is as a corporate and freelance writer and editor, as well as a vocal performer in choirs and small ensembles. Of all the creative things I love to do, writing and officiating weddings is my favorite.

My joy and privilege is to work with you as a couple to create a wedding ceremony that matches your dream vision. My goal as a wedding officiant is to build the trust and confidence to help you relax more so you can savor the sweet memories of your special day. When we meet for the first time, I interview you to learn about your relationship and values, which I use to add personal touches to your ceremony. We can then co-create the ceremony or I can write it for you, depending on what you prefer.
