About Wendy P. Smith
Funeral & Wedding Officiant 

Everything I do revolves around you. 

A compassionate celebrant and storyteller with over three decades of experience in honoring and celebrating the lives of others. I hold a Bachelor Degree in Psychology, Associate Degree in Mortuary Science, Ministry Certification, Insight Celebrant Certification and numerous Service Excellence Awards. I serve the Indianapolis, IN area and Berkshire County, Massachusetts as a funeral and wedding celebrant. As your storyteller or minister I conduct individualized ceremonies that honor and celebrate you and your loved one. 

I make every service to be unique...just like you!

I fill the gap for those who have no church affiliation or wish to have services performed without religion or spirituality. I am your storyteller. I am your host. I am the one to officiate the service. I will conduct a family meeting, collect your stories, discuss your needs and wants for your ceremony or the ceremony of your loved one in order to highlight the love between you.  

I perform weddings for couples of all beliefs and those who are non-believers. I work with couples of mixed faith, interfaith, humanist, gay, straight, traditional, modern, spiritual but not religious. 

What matters is the love between the couple and their commitment to one another.

As a funeral celebrant, each service is unique and geared toward your deceased loved one. Was dad a fisherman? Let's discuss a fishing theme for the visitation and funeral service. More traditional? Then I will focus on those traditional elements. 

In addition to funeral services I also conduct grieving rituals which are often performed on the anniversary date of a loved one's death.

Celebrating  new life and new beginnings is another area I have been called to perform. By conducting Naming Ceremonies after the birth or adoption of a child/children. This ceremony celebrates the official transformation within a family and within a child's life.
