Welcome! My name is Rev. Karen Osborne and I am an interfaith minister ordained through One Spirit Interfaith Seminary in New York and currently reside in Floyd, Virginia. As a celebrant, my passion is designing and performing weddings and other ceremonies including commitment celebrations, baby and home blessings, and memorial services for people and pets.

The joining of lives as well as the celebration of new life and the passing on of those we love are all significant events that ceremony and ritual can honor. Marking a significant passage with ceremony and ritual invites our hearts as well as those we care for to participate in and hear our declarations.

I am here to serve the spiritual and celebratory needs of all without regard to religion or sexual orientation. A meaningful ceremony as an expression of love can create a celebration or ritual that will be remembered for a lifetime.

Allow me to help you express what is felt in your heart and craft a celebration that will include the diversity present in your family and traditions.

As an officiant/celebrant I honor the customs and traditions of all the world’s religions. I can travel to your location or, if you would like, hold your celebration at our beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains retreat called Miracle Farm. Here we operate a Bed and Breakfast on 25 acres of riverfront property. We are able to provide for elopements or small wedding parties. Please contact me for further information and availability.

Dear Karen,
Thank you so very much for writing and performing such a beautiful and amazing ceremony. So many people have mentioned to us that it was the most beautiful setting and ceremony they have ever seen. A few have even mentioned that when they get married they would like for you to officiate! Again, thank you for making our day so special and unforgettable. Please take care and keep in touch.
Fondly,
Leah and Mack

Dear Karen,
Thank you for helping to make our wedding such a special, memorable, and happy event! You have been a joy to work with, and you really created and delivered a ceremony that captured us! Please let us know if you ever want a reference. Hopefully we will see you soon at your B&B.
Take care and thank you again!

Dear Karen,
We really enjoyed the wedding service and ceremony you put together. We had no idea that the ceremony was as important as it turned out to be. We still receive a lot of remarks about the outstanding job you did. Happy Holidays!
Thank you so much,
Jim and Angela

Dear Karen,
You amazed us, and every one of our guests with the beautiful ceremony you created. We appreciated your personalizing every detail and making it a wedding that spoke to our hearts. Thank you for helping to make this a memory of a lifetime!
Best wishes,
Chris and Laura

Dear Karen,
Thank you so very much for allowing us to have our wedding at your Bed and Breakfast. The setting was incredible and what seemed at first to us like a simple elopement turned into a day filled with wonderful memories and a lifetime of love.
Thank you so much for all your efforts!

Karen,
Thank you so much for creating such a beautiful ceremony for us!  I'm sorry this is coming so late--it's been a bit of a whirlwind since the wedding.  So many people asked about you and how we found you, and so many people complimented us on the ceremony.  You've been so great, and we definitely will plan to come out to your bed and breakfast in the near future.  Thanks again!  You were awesome--exactly what I wanted; it really surpassed what I expected.  Take care!
Bill and Jen

Dearest Karen,
Thank you so much for marrying us! I can’t tell you how happy we were about the ceremony. It was exactly what we wanted and more. It couldn’t have been more special. Thank you for all your hard work leading up to the day and for the beautiful job you did on Sept.6. I am so happy we will always be able to go back and read the words again in our binder. You helped us to create, plan and experience one of the most special times and series of moments in our lives. We felt so present and focused. How magical to have you help us communicate our love for each other and then to transform it into something newly built from all the love and companionship of the past. It is wonderful to now be husband and wife and I hope we meet you again and share some more time together.
Love,
Jesse and Katie
