Your Wedding Officiant

Welcome! I'm Negar,

a passionate advocate for community, culture, and connection. With a PhD from Northwestern University and over two decades of experience leading a thriving not-for-profit organization dedicated to teaching and promoting the Persian language and Iranian culture, I’ve spent my life fostering unity and understanding across diverse communities.

My work has always been rooted in bridging cultural divides, and I especially cherish my connection with the younger generation, joining them in exploring their identities and heritage.

Becoming a wedding officiant felt like a natural extension of my lifelong commitment to building bridges between people, across cultures and nationalities.

Fluent in both Persian and English, I am honored to play a role in one of life’s most meaningful moments—helping couples celebrate their love through ceremonies that are deeply personal, inclusive, and filled with heart.

Multicultural & Iranian Weddings: With a deep appreciation for diverse traditions, I specialize in creating ceremonies that honor your cultural heritage and personal preferences. Fluent in both Persian and English, I offer a unique perspective and understanding to make your Iranian and multicultural celebration truly special.

Traditional, Modern, Islamic, Spiritual, and secular Ceremonies: From the grace of tradition to the freedom of modern expressions, I am dedicated to crafting a ceremony that resonates with your beliefs and values, whether traditional, modern, Islamic, or non-denominational.

Celebrating All Unions: Love is a beautiful and diverse tapestry, and I am committed to celebrating every form of it. Whether you are a same-sex or opposite-sex couple, your love deserves to be honored with sincerity and joy.
