Laura and Bensare (May 2023)
I'm not your standard minister.
And I'm also not your best friend who got ordained online just to officiate your wedding.
Even though I earned a demanding and rigorous Master of Divinity degree like some of my Christian colleagues, I'm not a Christian minister. I'm a Unitarian Universalist minister. For more information on Unitarian Universalism, please go to my web page.
I am a woman minister whose core values are authenticity, radical acceptance, and courageous love. I find the Holy all around me, including within me and you. I believe we are held by a Love that will not let us go.
I am a bodacious, late-blooming queer woman who is an unapologetic lefty-liberal. I am working for a world where everyone flourishes and the sacredness of every individual is celebrated. (Okay, I admit the bodacious part is a little aspirational at this point.)
I might be the right person to officiate your wedding ceremony if your upcoming marriage is deeply important to you and you believe words matter.
I might be the right person to officiate your wedding ceremony if you want the ceremony to reflect you and your values.
I might be the right person to officiate your wedding if you are politically Progressive (you don't have to be as lefty as I am, hehe).
I might be the right person to officiate your wedding if you are Hetero, LGBTQ+, Poly, Disabled, and/or Neurodivergent.
I might be the right person to officiate your wedding if you identify with any of the following religious identities: Spiritual but not Religious, Agnostic, Atheist, Humanist, Naturalist, Pagan, Doubtful, Wiccan, Interfaith, Confused, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, and/or Buddhist.

What Others Say
Kellie was incredible during the planning of our wedding. She thoughtfully incorporated significant parts of our story and showed remarkable patience with my children during moments of frustration and mischief. She poured so much of herself into ensuring that every detail was perfect for us, creating a ceremony that was deeply personal, meaningful, and joyful. This, too, reflects her unique pastoral presence — she meets people with equal reverence in sorrow and in joy. Whether in the depths of mourning or the heights of gratitude, Reverend Kelly brings wisdom, steadiness, and a deep sense of the sacred to her ministerial practice.
~ Tina
We had a lovely experience with Rev. Kelly officiating our wedding. She provided great guidance for the program structure while also giving us room to create a ceremony that spoke to our own values and unique spirituality. Rev. Kelly has a very warm, positive attitude that helped to make our day wonderful.
~ Laura
We loved working with Kellie when she officiated our wedding. She was very easy to work with and took the time to listen to how we wanted our vows written. She even came up with some good ideas for how to say what we wanted to each other. I recommend Kellie to any couple looking to get married!
~ Betsy
Kellie was an AMAZING support for me and my wife's wedding. She was so kind and understanding of everything we went through to get to the altar. She went above and beyond to make sure our day was everything we wanted and more. She's genuinely one of the kindest people I've had the pleasure of getting to know.
