Wed by Warner — Where love is honored and celebrated
Hi, I’m Sherby Warner, founder of Wed by Warner. My journey into officiating began with a love for meaningful communication, strengthened during years with Toastmasters International. There, I developed the confidence and presence that now shape every ceremony I lead.
About Wed by Warner
Our Story
Our Philosophy
Our Services
My journey to becoming an officiant began with a simple desire: to communicate with clarity, confidence, and purpose. As a proud member of Toastmasters International for three years, I refined my public speaking skills, strengthened my stage presence, and learned how to deliver heartfelt messages with excellence. That experience shaped not only how I speak—but how I serve.

After relocating and stepping away from Toastmasters, I felt a clear calling from God to use those skills in a more meaningful way. That calling led me to become an ordained minister through the Universal Life Church.
Since then, I have had the honor of officiating weddings and supporting families during some of life’s most sacred milestones. I am authorized to perform weddings, baptisms, funerals, house blessings, baby namings, and other custom ceremonies. I have organized and officiated weddings, working closely with each couple to help bring their dream celebration to life.
