About Marriage Phoenix

All weddings are beautiful and sacred ceremonies demonstrating an act of love. Over the years, I have officiated all sorts of weddings and unions to bring loving couples together. Each wedding is always designed to fit your needs, desires, and circumstances. I can provide a beautiful ceremony for most faiths, religions, and philosophies. I also am willing to work with you to fit most financial circumstances, whether you want an inexpensive "no frills" wedding at your home or our location, or all the way to that big, elegant event. Each wedding ceremony is designed to fit your love and lifestyle.

When I help a couple get married it makes me remember my own story of discovery and joy. My wife Nora and I were married in 1981 and have had a long and wonderful relationship. I look back to all of the experiences in my life that led me to finding my true love and see that it has molded me to take the path of an Ordained Minister.

I was raised in New York City and grew up as a member of Christ Church, Methodist. In high school, I was an acolyte and MYF president. My mother said I should be a Minister, but at the time I had my sights set on becoming a famous Shakespearean actor. I focused on the theatre and graduated from Northwestern University's theatre department. I acted professionally for ten years. I received voice training at the National Theatre of Canada, and have had lots of experience performing in front of large audiences. Standing up in front of hundreds or even thousands of people does not faze me even a little bit. I am calm and assured, and not easily shaken.

In 1976, I decided to start teaching Yoga along with my acting career. The combination of both physical and mental teachings work well with my theatre experiences. Years later, I moved to Phoenix, Arizona, and created my own business called Ted's Gentle Yoga.  Since 1987, I have been teaching yoga courses at locations throughout the Phoenix area. Some of the more prominent locations where I have taught are: ASU West, Glendale Community College, Scottsdale Community College, the Cowden Center, Terros, the Parks & Recreation Departments of Phoenix and Glendale, the A.R.E. Clinic, Sun Health Community Education, the Arizona Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired, the Scottsdale YMCA, and for five years at the Annual Conference of the Arizona Public Defender Association. I have been teaching for many years and have a first hand knowledge of the Phoenix area.

In 2006, I was ordained and I began my Ministerial calling. I started my own wedding service called Marriage Phoenix. I have performed weddings for many couples at settings all over the Phoenix area. Many of the ceremonies have been in fancy resorts, restaurants and reception halls, while others have been simpler events at people's homes, apartment clubhouses, and outdoor settings like area parks, backyards, and even the Desert Botanical Gardens. I am open to almost any setting to enhance the beauty of your wedding day.

All of my life experiences have led me to being the person you would want to hire for your wedding ceremony. My acting career has given me the vocal skills and presence necessary to create the perfect atmosphere at your event. I have extensive knowledge on how to handle audiences and create the right ambiance expected of your Minister. My teaching experience has given me the patience and confidence to work calmly with couples who wish to get married - and their families! I am calm and reassuring, and not easily shaken by unexpected mishaps or stressful situations. I believe I have struck the perfect balance that will create for you a heartfelt and beautifully spoken ceremony that your friends and family will enjoy and remember. I look forward to being a part of your special day!

With sincere blessings,                             

I would love to help you with your Wedding Ceremony.
