Francine (Frankie) Charbonneau
Originally from a small northern Ontario town, I've called Ottawa home for over 25 years. With professional roots in writing and public speaking, I'm passionate about storytelling and human connection. Friends describe me as warm, joyful, quick-witted, and intuitive -- qualities I bring to every ceremony. I'm also cool as a cucumber in unexpected situations. As a bilingual Designated Minister with Clergy Support Memorial Church, I embrace all love stories and draw wisdom from diverse faiths, cultures, and traditions. When not officiating, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, puzzling, camping, reading by a babbling brook, sipping wine, and watching football or F1 racing.
Whether you're planning an intimate gathering or grand celebration, I'd be honoured to help you create a wedding celebration that's wonderfully and authentically you!
