| |  I have conducted ceremonies in large churches with over 700 guests... and blessed the quiet sacredness of a midnight ritual with only bride, groom and two witnesses present... I've concelebrated with a rabbi under a huppah... traveled to the remote location where the bride's parents first met... rejoiced to unite a couple who were 'given away' by their grandchildren... appreciated the beauty and mystery of the Hindu yogi who performed the first part of a wedding ceremony... honored the creative talents of a writer-couple who longed to have the whole ceremony conducted in verse... I have led vows for couples as they stepped into the canoe that would carry them away... after 350+ ceremonies, my mind is full of beautful and happy memories... I've even rehearsed a seeing eye dog and, on another occasion, an energetic monkey
With over 20 years experience in creating unique weddings and services of union, I am delighted to offer my services to YOU. I live in Western North Carolina, and will travel in a 2-hour radius from Asheville. Once we decide to work together, I send you two copies of a 20+ page booklet of suggested readings -- many are original -- and possible ways of organizing your ceremony. The two of you review this booklet, and bring your selections plus your own additional material and ideas, to our meeting -- and from there we work together to weave the words and ritual into a ceremony that is perfect for you.
It will be my honor to work with you. Blessings, Maureen Killoran
What Couples Say about Rev. Killoran:
'Thank you so much for helping us come together. It was such a private yet beautiful ceremony. It will forever be remembered in my heart and in my new family's as well. God bless you, Maureen. You're such a beautiful person!' ~ The Gillettes, Asheville, July, 2004
The ceremony you did for us was absolutely beautiful in every way, we couldn't have asked for one more personal-it was exactly what we wanted. I thought we were going to have a hard time finding someone to cater to our difficult and strange requests, but you made it so easy and enjoyable. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for what you did -- you really and truly made our day extra special.' Bess and Nathan P, Etowah, NC, July, 2004
'Our wedding was fantastic! I can't believe the amount of individual attention you gave us both before and on the day of the wedding. When nerves hit, you were right there -- because of the way you handled everything, we KNEW we could not only make it through but have a good time. Thank you especially for the 'insider tips' you gave -- they made all the difference!' ~ Susan and Robert D., Phil PA (wedding at WNC resort, 2003)
