About

Kelly Edwards is a compassionate and inclusive wedding officiant, proudly ordained by American Marriage Ministries. She specializes in creating personalized ceremonies that honor every love story — from traditional and non-religious to spiritual, cultural, and Wiccan-inspired celebrations.

Based in Illinois and Indiana, Kelly welcomes all couples, including those with disabilities and members of the LGBTQ+ community, ensuring that every ceremony feels comfortable, meaningful, and deeply personal. Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement, a same-sex wedding, or a custom ritual like jumping the broom, Kelly brings warmth, professionalism, and heartfelt care to every “I do.”

“Love is universal — and every ceremony deserves to reflect the people it unites.”
