Your Ceremony is the heart of your Wedding and your Officiant is the heart of your Ceremony.
Your ceremony sets the tone.
The Ceremony sets the tone for so much that follows and you want it to be prepared with care and performed just as you plan it and envision it. That is the mission of the ministers of Coastal Carolina Ceremonies. As professionals with years of experience we do this very, very well.
Thank you for considering the services of Coastal Carolina Ceremonies for your wedding officiant. We are Reverend LeeAnn Politis and Reverend Penelope Morningstar. Though both are ordained ministers, we are equally comfortable working with couples who prefer not to have religious language in their ceremony.
The ceremony is the most important part of your wedding day. It is the moment when your family and friends witness as you enter into the most important agreement of your life, the moment when you become partners for life.
In our many years of experience performing wedding ceremonies, both Penelope and I have had the honor of joining thousands of couples in this most sacred bond. We would be honored to be chosen to do your ceremony.
What to expect from your wedding officiant.
The officiant will meet and get to know you, and learn about your dream wedding. If you live out of the area, we can have a phone interview then communicate by phone, text or email.
The officiant answers your phone call or email 7 days a week up to 9 p.m. and if not immediately available, will get back to you as soon as possible.
Penelope and I have performed weddings in nearly all of the local wedding venues. So whether your dream wedding is on the beautiful beaches, in a park, at a chapel, a historic building in the charming downtown, the Aquarium, on a dock, a boat, or your family’s backyard — you choose the venue and we’ll be there to make your dream come true with the beautiful ceremony that joins you in marriage. We are equally comfortable in any location.

Ceremony designed specifically for you
The words we say at weddings are like no other. They are spoken from the heart and touch all who hear. They should be meaningful and memorable. You will want the words to reflect your relationship and be compatible with your beliefs. I will provide sample vows, readings, and blessings for you to choose from whether you prefer a sacred or civil ceremony.
I can suggest unique ceremony ideas to enhance your own traditions. You might consider the ‘Unity Candle or the Unity Sand ceremony,’ the Celtic Handfasting Ceremony, ‘knot tying,’ or the ‘Lei ceremony.’ You may wish to have a friend or family member do a reading, or to remember deceased loved ones. Ultimately the ceremony will be what you have chosen, your own unique version.
