So you are engaged?One of the next steps is finding an officiant.

Congratulations. You are about to enter one of the most exciting times of your life! Yes, engagements are exciting, but they can also be a little anxiety producing. There are decisions to make in the lead up to your important day: Will you and your beloved exchange vows at a vineyard with the Blue Ridge Mountains for your backdrop, the wind ruffling your hair, and sealing your vows with wine-laced lips? Do you want to invite all your friends and family to witness your exchange of vows? Then again, maybe you and your beloved should have an intimate ceremony with just a few people present. No fuss. Simple.

My name is Rev. Dr. Gay Lee Einstein and I am a wedding officiant. I have been officiating at weddings for over 20 years. I marry couples in Charlottesville and Richmond and places in between. And, I marry in all kinds of settings. You want to marry on a beach? That's great! You want to marry on the family farm? Fine. Wherever.

I will also listen to your ideas for the wedding of your dreams. If you want, I can give you my suggestions. After all, I have officiated at a lot of weddings. However, I never push my ideas, and I never, ever presume to know better than you. After all it is YOUR wedding. My goal is to help YOU create a marriage ceremony that will be both meaningful and spiritual . And, I will strive to use language that speaks to you and your guests--traditional, poetic, slightly humorous, formal or relaxed.
