Forward Bound Celebrations (formerly Simple Ceremonies) was created for people who want meaningful weddings that are highly personal and respectful. I meet with each couple and learn their desires for their wedding and write a personal ceremony that is unique and reflects the values and beliefs of the couple. No matter how large the wedding, make it your day, your way! Secular and LBGTQ friendly. All belief systems are welcomed.

“We cannot thank you enough for all you did for us on our wedding day! The ceremony turned out beautifully even though we had to move it inside. And it was freezing! We appreciate it so very much. Thank you for making our dream wedding become a reality. We couldn't have done it without you!”

Alicia and Will F.


“Thank you Kristin for the wonderful job you did of officiating Victoria and Joe's Wedding on Saturday! The ceremony was just beautiful... I know how helpful you were to Tori and Joe when it came to writing their vows! I saw how much you truly enjoy your job... and Richard and I could not be happier with how it turned out! There are many moments during the day that will be long time memories... but the words they shared with each other were precious and sincere. Thanks for all you did!”

Lorraine and Richard Spencer


“Thank you so much for officiating our wedding ceremony it was beautiful! You really helped us to craft a script that really represents us. Thank you!”

Sarah and Brandon


“Almost two years later, people still comment about our personal, touching wedding ceremony which Kristin Combs of Simple Ceremonies officiated magically. From our first conversation to saying 'I Do' every step was meaningful, flexible, and EXACTLY what we wanted to say and do as we started our lives. We had many conversations with ease and convenience. When so much is about the wedding, Kristin is wonderful about keeping the focus about the marriage! Thankful Kristin was a part of this amazing day & the start of a wonderful marriage.”

Colette Wilkey-DeRidder


“Kristin-thank you so much for all you have done! It means so much that you were there to help us into the next phase of our lives!”

Megan and Kelly F.


“Thank you for helping make our day so special!”

Tom and Teresa R.


“Kristin-thank you so much for everything. All I keep hearing is how great our ceremony was!”

Sarah and Chris


“Kristin-thank you again... everything was wonderful... We had an amazing day, and could not have done it without you.”

Darryl and Elizabeth


“Not only were Tim and I pleased with having Kristin officiate at our wedding, but she received many compliments from our friends and family as well. We were a bit nervous as we had never gotten together with her in person before the wedding, but the ceremony was perfect nonetheless, which I think shows how flexible and professional she is! We had a nontraditional wedding- informal, outside under a tree- and we basically wrote our ceremony. However, Kristin was key in both giving us suggestions and adding her own touches to create a perfect blend of what we wanted and yet enriching our ideas. During the ceremony, Kristin was kind and encouraging and added balance to the whole. We could both feel she really cared about us and creating a ceremony that would be memorable, and it was. Both Tim and I would wholeheartedly recommend Kristin to officiate at their wedding. We couldn't have made a better choice.”
