Susan Sackett - Secular Weddings in Arizona

I have been a Certified Humanist Celebrant since January, 2001. I specialize in WEDDING CEREMONIES. I also perform baby namings, funeral or memorial ceremonies, and other life passages.

If you are a Humanist, agnostic, atheist or other non-theistic couple I would be delighted to perform your wedding. I will work with you in designing a warm and meaningful non-religious ceremony tailored to your wishes. I have sample ceremonies which I will give you, or we can work together if you would like to write your own vows. I am located in the Scottsdale/Phoenix area, but will travel to other parts of Arizona. My fees are reasonable (with additional charges for excess travel).

I was president of the Humanist Society of Greater Phoenix (www.hsgp.org) for 11 years, from 2000 to 2010. I've also been a member of the American Humanist Association since 1989 and was member of the AHA Board of Directors from 2005 to 2018. I also served on the Board of Humanists International from 2011 to 2018.

I hold Bachelor of Arts in Education and Master of Education degrees from the University of Florida in Gainesville. After teaching for a few years in the Miami, Fla. area, I moved to California to pursue a dream of working in the entertainment industry. I learned about Humanism from my mentor, the late Gene Roddenberry, creator of "Star Trek," with whom I worked for 17 years. My book describing this journey can be found in my eBay Store.

I have lived in Arizona for the past 30 years. In my spare time, I enjoy travel, reading and spending time with our dogs.
