When you choose Mary for your Rally wedding officiant, you’ll get someone who …


♡ — delights in helping couples start the next chapter of their own epic love stories.

♡ — is always on the lookout for fresh ideas to fit couples’ personalities and values.

♡ — brings calm to any chaos – during the planning process and on the big day. Because planning a vacation and a wedding long distance can seem a bit overwhelming at first.

♡ — is a “local,” which means… if you’ve been here before and you have a favorite place, she’ll meet you there. … If you’ve never been to the Black Hills but you have an idea of the setting you want, she can help you find it. … And if you have no idea how to begin finding the just right place, she will make suggestions to get you started.

♡ — loves hanging out with people who are excited to visit the place she calls home.

♡ — shares freely. She has personal relationships with many of the area’s photographers, venues, florists and DJ’s because she leads lots of weddings all over the Black Hills all year round.

♡ — ask questions, listens carefully and offers lots of options for creating a ceremony that feels just right to the two of you.

♡ — practices every ceremony because she knows that pronunciation, pacing and presence matter.

♡ — respects and honors all people and all walks, regardless of race, creed, ethnicity or gender.

♡ — is responsive and detail-oriented. No question is too small or too silly. Just ask. If she doesn’t know, she’ll point you toward someone who might.

We cannot express to you how meaningful and special our ceremony was – the children being involved, the beautiful location, perfect guidance from you, all the special readings and the Unity ceremony!! We are still in such a state of floating from it. We are recommending you to all we meet. Thank you from our hearts!
