Roxanne K. Cottell

Ordained minister available for weddings, funerals and private hospice services. Specializing in commitment ceremonies, clients with specific eccentricities and lifestyles, and for those transition ceremonies where many traditional ministers would not perform ceremonies or rites due to religious and spiritual beliefs. Please send an email for prompt reply. And yes, I do perform elopements, shot gun weddings and will travel within a certain radius to perform yours (within the San Gabriel Valley, all the way east to both the Inland Empire and Riverside area, up to the high desert areas of Oak Hills, Phelan, Hesperia, Victorville, Oro Grande, Helendale and Barstow, and west to portions of Orange County)

Free information and initial phone consultation! Nothing is really taboo (OK, so I stop at the whole satanic thing - though I harbor no ill will toward anyone who has chosen that path, it gives me the willies...) I perform LGBT weddings/commitment ceremonies, themed ceremonies (Yes, I am willing to wear thigh highs and leather just to please my clients), themed transitional ceremonies (Hey, some LGBT do not want to be memorialized or said goodbye to with sadness only - they wanna party and I respect that). I help write vows as well as eulogies - I just need a little bit of information and we are good to go!

Also specializing in Hawaiian Luau themed weddings by an actual Hawaiian minister (Yes, me) which come complete with catered luau, luau entertainment (including the hula girls, fire knife dancer, tahitian dancers, and funny old guy who Emcee's the event and a three piece Hawaiian band! ) clean up and fun, fun, fun!!! Send an email for more information! Authenticity is the key in this one and my partners and I serve up a REAL Hawaiian style wedding . Yes, there are ala carte prices and package prices so go ahead and ask about it (but please - do not ask me to wear a coconut bra - it kind of chafes the girls and well, then what fun would I be??? And we do not do grass skirts...it's authenticity that we are after! And we give you complete authenticity!) I also do kick ass rock - n -roll themed weddings (because that is just the kind of chick I am), biker weddings - even sports themed weddings ! (These are a LOAD of fun!!! ESPECIALLY for NFL themed weddings ! )

For transition ceremonies I do not follow ANY religious themes - I do it straight from the heart and soul...no one needs to be any sadder than they already are, and I try hard to bring into the picture an atmosphere of calm, dignity and especially, Love. There are so many things that need seeing to when seeking the proper EVERYTHING for our dearly departed that finding suitable clergy for such events - especially for LGBT - is no easy task, as many clergy tend to pander instead of care for those in need of care, concern, Love and respect...no one likes to say goodbye, but at least I know and I try hard NOT to drag a ceremony on and on, stretching the pain out and making everyone more sad than they need to be. I am sensitive to the needs of the family (and family does not always include people we are related to...) and follow their wishes explicitly. Please contact me for details.

There are SO Many different possibilities - the sky is the limit! I charge by the hour except in cases of elopement and shot gun weddings ... email for information!



I take payments by cash, check, money order and of course, Paypal rocks ! I offer military, senior and student discounts for elopements/shot gun weddings ! All you gotta do is email me!

Have a Blessed, Beautiful Day my Friends...
