Thank you so much for hosting! Both the dinner & conversation were truly nurturing. It was so refreshing to be in a space where the topic of death was not avoided or dismissed, but rather encouraged and embraced. It is an important step in normalizing dialogue about death and the dying process so that we can move towards approaching it with curiosity rather than fear. I look forward to having this dialogue with others and to continue to introspectively examine my own beliefs.

Julia was truly the heart of our wedding ceremony. She worked seamlessly with our other officiant and showed professionalism and care throughout the entire process. She handled every detail from completing the necessary paperwork to coordinating with our DJ and venue team. She met with us multiple times leading up to the big day, really listening to what we wanted and helping shape our ideas into something beautiful.
We knew we didn’t want a religious ceremony, and she honored that completely—offering thoughtful ideas that made everything feel cohesive, heartfelt, and uniquely ours. The ceremony she wrote was everything we hoped for and more—funny, sweet, personal, and unforgettable. Our guests loved it in the moment, and months later they still comment on how meaningful and well-crafted it was.
From start to finish, Julia was organized, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in making our ceremony perfect. She turned what could have been a stressful process into one of the most meaningful parts of our entire wedding. We’re forever grateful for the love and intention she poured into our day.

Thank you for bringing this event into our lives, Julia. The Death Dinners give us a space to talk about something with strangers and friends that bring us all together around the one thing we ALL have in common as humans. We will all die one day, in what way we won’t know, but we can control how we choose to think about that and how we choose to have our bodies handles post-mortum.
