My ceremonies focus on celebrating the beautiful union of two individuals, whether from the same cultural background or from different ethnicities, nationalities, or traditions.

For couples blending Iranian heritage with another culture, I specialize in creating ceremonies that beautifully honor and integrate both traditions. Whether it’s incorporating elements of an Iranian wedding alongside the rituals of your partner’s heritage, I ensure every detail reflects the harmony of your love story.

Fluent in Persian and English, I help craft a mono- or bilingual, inclusive experience that celebrates the richness of your diverse backgrounds. Your ceremony will be a heartfelt reflection of your shared journey, embracing the beauty of unity in diversity.

Multi-Cultural Wedding

My Travel Policy:

Based in the Chicagoland area, I am available to officiate weddings locally, across the U.S., and internationally, provided travel costs are covered. Weddings within a 50-mile radius of Chicago, IL, are considered "local" and do not incur additional travel fees. For weddings outside the Chicagoland area, whether within the U.S. or internationally, travel expenses (including transportation and lodging) will be required.

Pre-wedding Consultation Call:

The pre-wedding consultation is a chance for us to connect and discuss your vision for the ceremony. During this call, we’ll talk about important details such as the type of ceremony you want (traditional, secular, fusion, etc), any specific rituals you’d like to include, and the overall tone you’re hoping to set for the day. This is also a time for me to get to know you as a couple—your love story, your values, and what makes your relationship special.

We’ll go over the logistics too, including the location, timing, and any unique needs you may have. If you’re planning a multicultural or bilingual ceremony, we’ll explore how to seamlessly integrate elements from both cultures. Additionally, I’ll answer any questions you have about the process and provide insights to help you feel confident and prepared for your big day.

Includes In My Service:

A consultation meeting (virtual or in-person) in addition to my attendance at the wedding event. The extent of my involvement and cost vary, depending on the type of ceremony you have in mind. After I learn about your preferences, I will email you with a fee breakdown and the services associated with each fee. Our final agreement will be in writing, with your and my signatures.
