EMILY & JUSTIN 

Pastor Shane inspired us and made our wedding day very special. Throughout our engagement Pastor Shane got to know us and was able to speak about our relationship and our future. Not only did he provide a wonderful ceremony he provided us with a message for our future to never stop believing in what truly matters - family and our spirituality.

"pastor SHANE inspired us."

Shane made our wedding day very special for us. The ceremony couldn’t have been any better. We met with Shane to discuss our choice of ceremonial options. Everything we chose went exactly how we envisioned it on our wedding day. Shane performed the ceremony with great enthusiasm, compassion and joy. Our guests continue to speak about Shane. He was a perfect match for us and gave us the wedding we always wanted.

"THE WEDDING WE ALWAYS WANTED"

"We want to personally thank you for the wonderful ceremony that truly was the cornerstone of an unforgettable, amazing day! Your words and loving guidance meant so much to everyone in attendance. In fact, many guests came up to us at the reception to say that your words and message inspired them to re-examine and celebrate their own marriages." 

- lindsay 

"pastor SHANE
is awesome!"

"Pastor Shane did a fantastic job. He was very relaxed, a great public speaker and put everyone at ease. He was a calming presence to us both. He had a touch of humor but really delivered the meaningful ceremony we wanted quite flawlessly. At the end of the day the ceremony was perfect and he delivered it exceptionally well."

- allison

I love spending time in Athens, GA on football game weekends and attending the games, with all the good food, the aroma, and the expectation of what will transpire. There is nothing like college football!


01. I LOVE the 

GEORGIA BULLDOGS

There is something about the release that comes from getting in the car or on an airplane to travel for a few days and even a few weeks. There is a silence, a stillness, and an adventure of hope that is generated in me.

02. I love

TRAVELING

I really enjoy the freedom and that comes to my life by being near the sunrise and sunset with a repeat each day. I also love the fresh seafood that is nearby from so many different great restaurants.


03. I love to gO to

THE BEACH

I live to learn and learn to live better. Getting perfect is certainly not a goal, but getting better is. I desire to become the best version of myself, possible. I have a BA, a Master’s degree and am working on my doctorate. I am committed to being a life-long learner.

04. I LOVE  

LEARNING

I love everything about weddings. I like working with couples in becoming new friends, getting to know them and their families really quickly, and being there for them for years to come as a trusted adviser. It goes without saying how fun the actual wedding celebration really is.

05. I LOVE PERFORMING
