Celebrations and Ceremonies
Reverend Maureen O'Shaughnessy is licensed to perform wedding ceremonies in the State of Hawaii.
Personalized, non-denominational ceremonies that reflect the values and wishes of the parties involved can be created to include personalized vows, symbolic rituals and traditions.
"Namaste is a Sanskrit word that beautifully expresses the sacred in marriage: It means: 'I honor the place in you, where the entire universe resides. When you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, there is only one of us.'"
"I take you to be no other than yourself; loving what I know of you and trusting what I don't yet know; with respect to your integrity and faith in your love for me, throughout our years together, and in all that life may bring us, accepting you as my wife/husband."
House Blessings
A personalized ceremony to bless your space (home, office, boat etc.) can include cleansing, Oli (Hawaiian Chant) and sacred ritual.
