Wedding Officiants in Virginia, Maryland, and DC

NoVES Officiated Wedding

We specialize in creative, customized ceremonies for couples of mixed religious backgrounds, no particular religious connection, or others who want a nontraditional, humanistic ceremony. Values are the foundation of an Ethical Culture wedding ceremony: respect for the worth and uniqueness of each person and the importance of making and keeping commitments are two key values that an Ethical Culture ceremony stresses.
