Welcome! My name is Carol Ludwick. I am a certified Lifecycle Celebrant, a professionally trained ceremony specialist. You can think of me as your rite of passage guide! I'll weave your values, beliefs and traditions into a custom ceremony that will hold sacred the space for you to mark your milestone in a rich and memorable way, rooting it in your unfolding story. It is my pleasure to work with people from all backgrounds and belief systems. |

What's my secret sauce?
Intuitive storyteller: I take the time to engage and connect, to sense the subtleties and suss out the details. Whether celebrating a love story or honoring a legacy, I craft ceremonies that beautifully capture the essence of each moment, making every experience personal and unforgettable.
Excellent Communicator: I listen attentively and offer a variety of creative ideas to inspire your vision, collaborating with you all the way and keeping you updated on every step of the process.
Focus on You: At weddings, I offer to stand to the side, ensuring the spotlight stays on the couple — and the photos turn out beautifully. At memorials, I hold space with compassion, allowing loved ones to feel supported and seen.
Graceful presenter: As a polished speaker and facilitator, I bring confidence, warmth and presence to every ceremony. Whether for an intimate gathering or a large group, I engage guests in a shared experience that is both moving and memorable. With a background in acting and improv, I’m well equipped to handle the unexpected with ease!

The urge to mark milestones is primal. So, follow the drumbeat!
Let it call you to gather in ceremony, to celebrate growth, support transition and honor life's passages. Let it call you back to nature, to attune to the passing of her seasons and revel in her ability to soothe, fortify and enchant us. When we meet in the energy of community, we can share the warmth of a welcome home, the rush of a new commitment, the glow of a job well done and the deep sigh of a life well lived. We bear witness to the stories of those we love and to the beauty that surrounds us as the wheel continues to turn. |
