What is an interfaith ceremony
Interfaith ceremonies are created from different traditions important to everyone involved. They are an excellent choice when you and your intended(s) come from different faith traditions or are spiritual but not religious, but want ceremonies meaningful and authentic to you and you families.
Training and Background:
Rev. Diane “Emerald” Bronowicz-Egelhoff of One Spirit’s Class of 2020 (“Love Unleashed!”) has served as a Priestess and Leader in her religious and spiritual communities, both local and international, for 20+ years.
Her personal practice incorporates Druid, Wiccan, and Hellenic traditions and the modalities of trance, seership, scholarship, and magic to honor the Gods, the Ancestors, and the Spirits of this World while acknowledging the cycles of Earth, Moon and Sun.
She is especially called to facilitate connection and foster magic by writing and performing personalized rites of passage, primarily within underserved and marginalized communities, but also for all people who want to mark their lives’ turning points in a spiritual way but do not have a set practice or congregation to which to turn.
An accomplished ligurgist, ritualist, and bard, she teaches workshops on topics including crafting effective worship services, dancing the divine, and theatre in ritual. Rev. Diane Emerald earned a BA in History and Theatre Arts from Boston College and a Master’s in Education from Duquesne University. She lives on 14 wooded acres northeast of Pittsburgh, PA.
Divine connection and magic do not necessarily dissipate once a ceremony has ended, and she hopes to continue to minister to those who come to her for rites of passage to meet their spiritual needs throughout their lives.

LGBTQAI+ Commitment
LGBTQAI+ Commitment
All love is sacred and needs to be celebrated. Unfortunately too many religious traditions don’t honor same sex unions that should be celebrated not denigrated. Emerald comes from that community and is committed to serving the LGBTQAI+ community.
