Intimacy By: Annamo February 27, 2026 Tongues melding. Bodies caressing. Intensity building. Most people would call that intimacy. And yes, it is. But intimacy goes far beyond physical touch. Have you ever felt turned on without a single hand laid on you? Maybe it was a conversation that challenged you. Maybe it was the way someone truly saw you. Maybe it was the tension in a moment that never needed to go further to mean everything. Intimacy lives there, too. Bec

My handsome dog, Shadow, and I. I have been called “sir” more times than I can count. I have a short haircut that some would say would be better suited for a guy. I shop in the men’s department. I carry myself in a masculine way. I have been asked, “Why do you want to look like a boy?” The list goes on. As a child, I even convinced myself that maybe I had been born intersex and my parents chose to raise me as a girl because they already had a son. That was the mentality of an

The Myth of the “Perfect” Wedding Is there really such a thing as a perfect wedding? I’ve witnessed many ceremonies — and honestly, the only one I used to think wasn’t perfect was my own. Isn’t that how it goes? We build this picture in our minds: the tables will look exactly like this, the outfit will flow just right, and the hair… oh yes, the hair has to be flawless. That was definitely me on my wedding day. But let’s talk about what happens before the big moment. The plann

Heart of Unity An inclusive officiant’s perspective in love, timing, and honoring truth Are you in love? Are you considering asking your partner to be your spouse?

In this next part, we move from why  inclusive ceremonies matter to what they look and feel like . This is where intention becomes practice: how your story is centered, how language is chosen with care, and how traditions are reshaped to

By Annamo January 22, 2026 A Place to Begin Inclusive wedding ceremonies are about more than language or structure — they are about creating a space where love is honored without hesitation, explanation, or compromise. If you’ve ever wondered whether your story would be understood, whether your identity would be respected, or whether your love would truly be celebrated, know this: inclusive ceremonies exist because you deserve that certainty. In Part 2, we’ll explo

By Annamo January 19, 2026 I will never forget when Tyra and I first sat down to work on our wedding vows. We were in Florida, tucked away at a small, quiet resort. We had a screened-in balcony where the air felt softer, the world slower. It was peaceful — the kind of setting you think  would make writing vows easy.... But it wasn’t. I quickly realized I didn’t actually know what vows were supposed to be. I stared at the blank page, unsure how to put something so b

Those experiences have shaped not only who I am, but why creating safe, affirming spaces
