About Jeremy
I love the atmosphere instilled by a perfectly executed wedding ceremony. Opening words to let everyone present know your intentions to marry, statement of intention and vows as promises to each other and the exchange of rings to complete the compact. It has a cadence and rhythm that is timeless and elegantly structured.
I never started out thinking "I'm going to marry people." Like many things in my life, it just happened. I had been photographing weddings for some time and was always fascinated by the visual aspects. However, after I performed my first ceremony I was hooked. Now I enjoy working with couples to celebrate their vows on one of the most important days of their lives.
A native son of Oregon, born in Roseburg, I've been privileged to live in California, Washington, Colorado and now Oregon again. In the 1940's my family ran Thunder Mountain Lodge on the north fork of the Umpqua river where fly fishing was king. I still have photos of the lodge and the unbelievably rich trout stream that was of that time. These days, nothing gives me greater pleasure than wandering the hills of our fabulous western states. If you've ever seen a bright spring day on the northern Oregon coast it's unforgettable.
Lyssabeth's Wedding Officiants About Jeremy Myers
I'm passionate about photography, cooking, road biking, and my quiet home with my wife here. I'm also a Dad and have two grown children, Gabriel, the mountain climbing-snow boarding nut of Colorado and my daughter Ariela who is in the Army in Georgia. My marriage to Maureen also brought me the joy of my stepdaughters and their husbands and kids--all of whom are in Colorado.
When I met Maureen, I was working as a kitchen designer. Several years and a marriage (to her) later, she convinced me to quit my job and join her in her life's work of Lyssabeth's. Quite honestly, it didn't take much convincing. Who wouldn't jump at the opportunity to work from home having daily contact with couples about to embark on the most exciting journey of their lives?
So, since early 2009, I've been not only officiating weddings, but I handle all the accounting and administrative tasks of the officiating biz. (Translated: I'm the one that issues your contracts and calls you when it's time to pay your bill!) I'm also heavily involved in the marketing aspect of the business, primarily in working with the many venues in which we perform ceremonies.
