Why do couples hire Chaplain Mitzi Schwarz as their Wedding Celebrant? The answers are simple!

First and foremost, couples describe Mitzi as “ecumenically correct”. That’s because all who meet Mitzi know that she utterly believes that there is no “one” path of how people “should” live their most authentic, joy-filled life. Mitzi is equally comfortable serving as a Celebrant for Jewish couples, as well as those couples who are Interfaith, Spiritual-but-not-Religious, and/or Humanist.
