“I create wedding ceremonies from scratch, shaped by who you are, how you love, and the story that brought you here.
My secret goal is to make people cry.”
-Alisa Tongg, Storyteller and Celebrant for Aisle-Bound Couples

For couples who believe the ceremony matters.

My couples come to me because they can’t imagine simply “going through the motions” on their wedding day. They want something “personal and memorable,” something that feels “uniquely us.” They want their love story to give meaning and context to the celebration that follows.

They want their favorite people to feel like “participants,” not simply spectators. To laugh, cry, learn something they didn’t already know, and leave understanding a little more about why these two people chose each other.

And afterward?

They want their guests saying, “It felt like she’d known you for years.” They want people talking about the ceremony at cocktail hour. They want the ceremony to be one of the parts of their wedding they remember most.

I create ceremonies from scratch for couples who want that, too.
