Love-Centered Ceremonies
Trudi Cooper, Wedding Officiant
I love Love!
My mission is to provide inspiring, heartfelt wedding ceremonies for people of all backgrounds.
In the Ceremony, you become partners in the adventure of Life.
The vows you make to each other join your hearts, and your futures.
Let us honor and revere this important moment of dedication.
You will remember this event for the rest of your life.
Make it how you have always dreamed it to be.
“That was the most beautiful ceremony I’ve ever been to, in a church, or anywhere.”

Summary of Ceremony Options
I add personalization to every Ceremony.
I can often perform a Simple, Sweet Ceremony with little advanced notice. Perfect for a planned elopement.
For a medium sized event, the Lovely Heartfelt Ceremony rings deep with sweetness and meaning.
I can develop a personalized Deluxe Custom Ceremony out of your story – how you met, what inspires you, the people you love, what makes you laugh, and those you want to honor and acknowledge.
I also offer a Wedding License Signing Only option, if you want the simplest option.
“We absolutely love the ceremony that you have written, it is perfect!!!
I honestly can’t think of anything else I could say as
your ceremony truly captures everything we find important in
a relationship and marriage going forward.”
Blessing the Rings
My passion is helping you celebrate your love with a personalized warmth.
I look forward to helping you make your wedding vision come true.
Your place, or mine!
I am happy to travel to you or to the location or venue of your choice.
I also offer my own craftsman-built contemporary Ceremony Space.
It’s 12 miles south of Chelsea, 30 minutes SW of Ann Arbor.
It is wheelchair accessible, air conditioned, with maximum occupancy of about 35 guests
The area adjacent to the Ceremony Building can accommodate up to 75 people.

I can also offer you my secluded Riverside Wedding Setting
It’s along the bank of the Raisin River.
My nearby Ceremony Building can be a backup in case of inclement weather.
I wrote my first Wedding Ceremony 36 years ago for our own Wedding, (and those vows have worked pretty well so far!). As an ordained, non-denominational Minister, I would be honored to help you manifest a personal, authentic celebration of the love and dedication you will share with your beloved partner as you go forward through life together.

A review on Weddingwire.com:
I must say that my wife and I were so entirely pleased with our wedding ceremony that Trudi Cooper officiated for us. In every way and detail she was exceptionally perfect.
Trudi spent quality time getting to know us and learning our love story and background which in turn helped her to personalize our ceremony. She is incredibly grounded as a person which alleviated all of our pre wedding nervousness. In turn, she helped us to envision the perfect ceremony that suited our every need. Trudi promptly emailed us with her thoughtful and insightful draft of the ceremony for our review. We had not a single revision to make. It was perfect! During the ceremony, Trudi guided us through without a hitch, and had all of us smiling and crying together. She even added a few personal touches that made the ceremony more spiritual for us which we all really loved. Therefore I would recommend her for anyone that’s getting married and would like an authentic, warm, caring, sweet woman to officiate their wedding. Even more, we became friends along the way :)” -Nathan and Thelma
