Tending Our Relationships ~ Weddings
We all long for genuine human connection. The need to love, be loved, and feel connected is an essential part of human nature. Our intimate relationships are truly one of our greatest teachers. They can open your heart to a love you never experienced. As they continue uncovering our deeper layers, these same relationships can present the most challenging and difficult life lessons. Creating a trusting and positive partnership takes time and intention. Walking the relationship path, with her husband Barry, for the past 25 years, Michelle can support you in developing the skills to maintain your relationship, be an officiant for your wedding, or help mediate during times of conflict.

Reflections
"Michelle has the unique gift of holding sacred space and spreading nourishing energy. She really listened to our wedding vision and was able to capture our spirit - relating to our friends and family the significance of the day. She not only is a great facilitator, but also supported us in working through the stresses of wedding/family/relationship preparation. With Michelle's mental/spiritual support, we were able to be completely present and fully enjoy our day. We had heard horror stories of people hardly remembering their wedding or only remembering how stressful it was - we remember every bit of our day with total bliss. People still comment on what a love filled and unique ceremony we had. So blessed to have had Michelle's excellent facilitation and counseling skills. We would, without hesitation, highly recommend Michelle for anyone looking to have an authentic, creative, connected, fun, loving wedding."

"Michelle Vesser is authentic and insightful. She held a calm space for us during a very emotionally charged and challenging mediation. Upon meeting Michelle we could feel her grounded presence. She is a great listener and allowed us to communicate directly while asking helpful questions to redirect and open new doors to relating when we fell into patterns. She is a joy to work with on all levels." ~ MH
