Hello Love! I am Tia Ballard-Bryant a State commissioned wedding officiant and Micro-Wedding specialist who presides over weddings in Virginia and North Carolina. I also happen to be the founder of this city’s favorite little wedding service. Our team of officiants, photographers and planners, who work together to create and facilitate ceremonies that connect couples to their communities as well as themselves. Working with partners to forge lifelong memories is my passion. A true Georgia girl born and raised in my absolute favorite place, Savannah. Telling love stories is my Jam. I believe LOVE is our most powerful resource and belongs to ALL of us. I am an ice cream snob, an earring fanatic, and I love all things Coming to America. Watching Curb your Enthusiasm is my favorite pastime!

Living and loving in Richmond, VA but I can tell your love story wherever your imagination takes you ❤️
