TESTIMONIALS
Mel W.
Rev. Benae officiated our wedding yesterday. She did an amazing job. She put together perfect bows and was very helpful coordinating the wedding party prior to the event. She was extraordinarily easy to talk to and experienced. I highly recommend Rev Benae.
Dona G.
Reverend Benae married my husband and I in April 2021. It was absolutely beautiful. The special words she said about our marriage was absolutely perfect!!! Made us very comfortable during the service even had a chuckle or two!!! I hope to have her renew our vows in years to come. She’s wonderful!!!
Rev. Benae went above and beyond to make sure our ceremony came out exactly as we envisioned it. She really connected with us as a couple and eased our concerns as we approached the big day. Thank you again for everything!
Erin Pina-Gotay
Rev Benae is the best out there! She went above and beyond what we could have ever hoped (and asked) for! From the start, she was very enthusiastic and informative, which shined a light on her professionalism and general knowledge of all ceremony types. She is a true blessing, and we couldn't imagine anyone else officiating our special day! Thank you, Rev. Benae!!
ADDITIONAL SERVICES
Baptisms and Christenings
​While traditional clergy typically administer baptism or christening inside a place of worship, I feel different about this spiritual ritual. My philosophy is: because we are all brothers, sisters, and parents to each other in life-- essentially caregivers, we also have the right to help each other attain a purified state. I offer this service however it needs to be customized.
Blessings
We all experience change during our lifetimes. I believe life is about change, and coping with those times is one of the reasons we're on the planet. I offer the service of administering blessings of words and positive thought upon the manifestations of change, including house blessings, animals, new jobs and businesses, and even vehicles or boats.
Invocations and Holiday Ceremonies
Sometimes we all gather for one reason or another: at a meeting during the holidays to honor a season-changing. This is another time we need a spiritual petition, a prayer of entreaty, or a calling on the collective conscience to empower justification. For these times, I offer the service of invocation and prayer.
