At Sincerely Pete, I believe that every couple’s love story is unique and deserves to be celebrated in a way that is deeply personal and meaningful. As an award-winning Humanist and nondenominational wedding officiant, I create fully custom ceremonies that reflect your values, beliefs, and relationship journey. From intimate elopements to grand celebrations, I work with couples of all backgrounds, faiths, and identities to craft ceremonies that feel true to them.
With over 20 years of experience in the wedding industry — including time as a wedding planner — I bring a unique perspective to every ceremony I officiate. My background means I understand how important every detail is and how the ceremony sets the tone for your entire day. I am proud to be a “recovering wedding planner” who found my true calling in officiating and storytelling.
I have been honored with recognition such as Best Wedding Officiant from Virginia Living Magazine (2025), Best Wedding Officiant and Top Vote Getter from Washingtonian Weddings (2024 & 2025), and Best Wedding Officiant & Top Inclusive Vendor from Richmond Bride (2024).
I Offer:
- Fully custom wedding ceremonies tailored to your unique love story
- Vow writing support and coaching
- Ceremony script writing for couples with a friend or family member officiating
- Elopement and micro-wedding ceremonies
- Commitment ceremonies, vow renewals, and anniversary celebrations
- Ceremony planning guidance
- Destination and out-of-state weddings
- Legal license signings
Whether you need help writing your vows, creating meaningful rituals, or simply having someone guide you through your ceremony with warmth, professionalism, and authenticity, I am here for you. It’s my joy to help you celebrate your love story — sincerely and meaningfully.
Although I am based in Richmond, Virginia, I am available to officiate weddings across the United States. I love traveling to new places and bringing my experience to couples no matter where their wedding takes place.
