β€œMy husband and I were lucky enough to have our April 2024 wedding officiated by Elle at spirit fire life. As we are an interfaith couple; we wanted someone who would not mind incorporating spiritual beliefs into our ceremony keeping this in mind. We reached out to Elle a couple months ahead of our wedding and she encouraged us to set up a zoom call with her to figure out if she would be the right fit for wedding day. Well, we were so impressed from the start on everything that she brought to our call that we immediately emailed her following our discovery call to book her services. Throughout the process, Elle was kind, collaborative, and extremely professional. She was patient with us getting information to her and provided great resources to help us throughout the wedding planning process that I quite frankly never thought about. She continued to be a guiding light throughout our planning process and suggested we meet to talk through my thoughts regarding our unity ceremony. On our call she so eloquently stated something along the lines of: β€œsometimes it’s easier to have someone else make a decision for you when you are making so many of them.” As a result, I am positive our unity ceremony was perfectly executed thanks to Elle. She brought this level of poise and professionalism to our wedding ceremony and made our day even more wonderful than I ever could have anticipated! We are so grateful that we were able to have Elle as a member of our wedding day team.”

I would be honored to help you create a personal and unique ceremony and marry you in the location of your dreams. I will hike to the top of a mountain or join you at your favorite venue. Custom and basic non-denominational civil ceremonies in the North Central and Valley regions of Virginia. We can work from a template or I can write a bespoke ceremony just for you and your day. I am non-discriminatory and inclusive in my practice. I respect and want to work with people of all races, colors, religions, belief systems, genders, gender identities or expressions, sexual orientations, national origins, disabilities and ages.

β€œSteele Away Weddings was the perfect choice for our wedding officiant. From the moment I met the officiant, at a local wedding expo, her warm smile and contagious laughter immediately put me at ease. She was clear and prompt in all of our communications leading up to the big day, and really took the time to get to know us as a couple. On our wedding day, her heartfelt and fun approach made the ceremony feel so special and personal. She has a wonderful energy that just makes you want to get married and enjoy each other. I would highly recommend Steele Away Weddings to any couple looking for an officiant who will make your wedding day truly joyful and memorable.”

Hi my name is Tarnisha. I am the owner of Eternal Glow Wedding Services. We believe that your wedding ceremony should reflect who you are as a couple. Whether you envision a spiritual, secular, or a totally unique ceremony, we will work with you every step of the way to make your vision a reality. Our Officiant has been ordained to perform wedding ceremonies by both American Marriage Ministries and Universal Life Chruch. Our goal is to ensure that your ceremony is not only legally sound by directing you in the correct steps of obtaining your marriage license but also by providing an unforgettable experience to you on your big day.

β€œI’m so glad we chose Eternal Glow for our wedding! They were professional, efficient, and so warm throughout the entire process. From our first conversation, they made everything easy and stress-free. The ceremony itself felt personal, meaningful, and full of love. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better officiant to help make our day so special!”
