“The present moment is filled with joy and happiness. If you are attentive, you will see it.”
~ Thich Nhat Hanh
Dianna believes deeply in love, hope, and the beauty of the present moment. Friends might describe her as idealistic, but she simply believes in the goodness of people and the power of love. Being invited to witness and celebrate a couple’s commitment to one another is something she considers a true honor.
With her warm and joyful spirit, Dianna creates ceremonies that feel heartfelt, meaningful, and authentic. She loves helping couples share their story and celebrating the love that brought them to this moment. Couples appreciate how comfortable, supported, and genuinely seen they feel throughout the entire process.
Dianna is passionate about supporting families and community throughout Asheville. She has volunteered with Babies Need Bottoms Diaper Bank and worked with Au Pair in America supporting international nannies.
In her free time, you’ll likely find Dianna reading, painting, collaging, jumping on the trampoline with her son, or exploring the region’s beautiful mountain waterfall hikes with her husband and son. (Feel free to ask her for local hiking recommendations!) Originally from Chicago, Dianna has lived in Florida, Ohio, Colorado, and Spain before settling in Asheville.
Dianna holds a degree in World Religions and brings a thoughtful appreciation for many spiritual traditions. She practices meditation and enjoys yoga, and she welcomes couples of all backgrounds, faiths, and perspectives.
As John Muir famously said, “The mountains are calling, and I must go.” Dianna feels the same joy about celebrating love in the breathtaking landscapes of Western North Carolina.
She is honored to be part of the Love & Wisdom team and would love to help create a ceremony that reflects your story, your values, and the love you share.
