Wedding

Rev. Amy officiated the wedding for Rachel and Tim at Janesville Country Club this past summer.  The bride and I have a mutual friend, Jane, so I was disappointed that I wasn’t available to officiate Rachel’s wedding and was even more disappointed when I saw the photos taken by Je t’aime Photography by Katie J. Fedorski. […]

Ben and Veronica had one of the most interesting, well thought out, beautiful wedding.  One of the more unusual thing they did was have smooth river rocks that their guests wrote their names on before the ceremony began and then each person blessed the stone with their heartfelt wishes, good intentions and prayers before the […]

What does Koru mean?

KORU (kor-roo) is the Maori word for “loop.” For the indigenous people of New Zealand, the koru spiral represents a fern frond beginning to unfurl. The koru symbol embodies new beginnings, a new phase of life, renewal, hope for the future, positive change, personal growth, working in harmony, bringing people together, and being mindful of the good things in life.

At Koru Ceremony, we strive to personify these ideals and celebrate a new beginning through ceremony and ritual.
