Interfaith Ceremonies
Diane specializes in interfaith ceremonies, services for people who describe themselves as spiritual but not religious, those with a Christian faith that are not connected to a church, and ceremonies for those who want a completely secular/non-religious occasion. She is prepared to work with you on any of these ceremonies and more.
Diane welcomes clients from the LGBT community.
Great job!
Diane was wonderful! She personalized everything and really took the time to get to know us as a couple. After the ceremony multiple guests came up to tell us how much they loved her speech. Highly recommend!
Weddings
Diane is an ordained inter-faith minister, meeting requirements for legally officiating marriages in Colorado and most other states. She welcomes clients from all backgrounds, including those from the LGBT community.
“You were so kind and patient with us, allowing us to create the exact ceremony that gave us our most treasured memory! It was an absolute pleasure working with you as you took away any and all worry and stress we had. Anybody would be blessed to have you as their officiant.” — Sarah and Almir
Ceremonies for Families and Children
These include house blessings, baby blessings, adoptions, coming of age, retirements, croning, divorce, life tributes, family reunions, and more.
Even tributes to the special animals in a family’s life.
Ceremonies in Remote Locations
Diane worked professionally in the field of land and wildlife conservation in Colorado for 20 years. Professionally and as an avid hiker, she cherishes Colorado’s varied landscapes and understands the personal connections people have to specific places.
If it is of interest to you, she is open to working with you to create (and walk to!) a ceremony in a remote location.
Funerals, Memorial Services, and Life Celebrations
Consistent with the beliefs of the deceased and the wishes of each family, Diane creates personal, unique ceremonies to honor the lives of loved ones who have passed away. Diane initiated the Celebrant Services program for Dignity Memorial and Advantage funeral homes in metro-Denver in 2014 as a member of their staff. She currently officiates funerals, memorial services, and Celebration of Life gatherings through her company, Lyrical Life Ceremonies.
