Hi, my name is Miranda, and I’m raising funds to launch my dream of creating a mobile intimate wedding and elopement ceremony business in California. As a California-authorized wedding officiant, my passion is helping couples celebrate one of the most important days of their lives in a way that feels personal, beautiful, and stress-free. I believe every love story deserves to be celebrated, whether it’s an intimate elopement, a micro-wedding, or a small ceremony surrounded by the people who matter most. This dream is deeply personal to me. When I got married, I didn’t have the ceremony I had always imagined. That experience didn’t take away from the love I have for my marriage, but it inspired me to create the kind of meaningful ceremonies I once wished for, so other couples can have a beautiful day they’ll always remember. I’m asking for your support to help turn this dream into a reality. Your donations will help purchase the essentials needed to get started, including a ceremony arch, seating, décor, floral arrangements, ceremony accessories, signage, keepsake items, business licensing, insurance, marketing, and other startup expenses that will allow me to bring beautiful ceremonies directly to my couples. My vision doesn’t stop with a mobile business. One day, I hope to open a dedicated intimate wedding studio where couples can choose customized ceremony themes and celebrate their love in a beautiful, welcoming space designed just for elopements and micro-weddings. Every donation, no matter the amount, brings me one step closer to building something truly special. And if donating isn’t possible, sharing this fundraiser with your friends and family would mean the world to me. My initial goal of $2,500 will help cover the essential equipment and startup costs needed to welcome my very first couples. Thank you for believing in my dream, supporting a small business, and helping me create beautiful beginnings for couples in our community. I can’t wait to see where this journey leads.
