"It was surprisingly difficult to find a secular master of ceremony for our elopement. It was special to have a powerful, deeply moving moment facilitated by Sean. He remained friendly, charismatic, but in control without overstepping the whole time." - Michael in Manhattan

Ceremony That Meets the Moment
Ceremony That Meets the Moment
Some ceremonies are joyful.
Some are solemn.
Many are complex.
Whether you are choosing partnership, honoring a life, or crossing into a new chapter, ceremony provides a way to pause, gather, and acknowledge what is changing.
Champagne Ceremonies exists for people who want that pause to feel:
Grounded rather than scripted
Inclusive rather than assumed
Calm rather than performative
Personal rather than generic
