About Me

Leonard.jpg

I’m a Certified Life Celebrant in Canada and a licensed Marriage Officiant in the Province of Ontario, serving the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).

Ordained as a Minister by the Canadian International Metaphysical Ministry (CIMM), I specialize in performing wedding ceremonies using a calm, collected and professional approach. Metaphysics recognizes and respects all religions and spiritual paths. I am free to marry couples of all faiths, cultures, or sexual orientation.

 

Professionally, I am a fundraiser with SickKids Foundation with a background in Project Management (which has helped with keeping couples organized as we plan their ceremony).  I volunteer my time as President of my Condo Board, a Board Director for Childhood Cancer Survivor Canada and a Crisis Responder for Kids Help Phone.

I spent the better part of seven years living and working abroad in Qatar and South Africa.  I’ve been to at least 25 countries and I intend on travelling to 40 countries by the time I turn 40 (i.e. 15 countries in five years).  I also love to cook.  Check out quarantine.cuisineTO on Instagram to see how I’ve kept busy during quarantine.  

 

The reason I got into this business was because my friends asked me to “officiate” their wedding. (Think Joey marrying Chandler and Monica on Friends).  At the time, I wasn’t licensed, so we did the ceremony anyway and they had a Legal Officiant do the declaration.  Months later, another friend said she was eloping and asked me to officiate her wedding.  That’s when I decided to get licensed.  Officiating is a great side hustle (I mean, what millennial doesn’t have one?). Not only do I get to meet incredible people from all walks of life but I also get to be a part of their special day. It’s important for me to work with the couple in delivering a ceremony that reflects who they are and what they believe in.

Flexible and Professional

"Leonard could not have been more amazing, flexible and professional regarding everything tied to our beautiful wedding. I can’t begin to tell you how smooth and flawless the ceremony was and how elated Fiona and I were with how he conducted himself, incorporated our witnesses and really made the moment feel special and unique for everyone. Highly recommend!"
