About heather Cole - storyteller - guide
Ceremony Specialist | Weddings & Memorials
Offering personalized, secular, and civil funeral ceremonies in St. Petersburgh, Tampa Bay Area
I’m Heather Cole—an ordained minister, certified funeral celebrant, and ceremony writer based in St. Petersburg, Florida. Through Ever Grace Ceremonies, I serve families and couples across the Tampa Bay Area by crafting deeply personal, story-driven services that reflect the heart of the people we’re honoring.
With both pastoral and celebrant training, I bring a unique blend of spiritual sensitivity, professional guidance, and authentic human connection to every ceremony. Whether I’m officiating a celebration of life or a wedding, I approach each moment with warmth, respect, and deep listening—because I believe that people deserve to be seen, known, and remembered with honesty and grace.
I began this work after witnessing too many services that felt disconnected—generic scripts that didn’t reflect the person or the love surrounding them. My goal is the opposite: to create meaningful ceremonies that are true to your values, your story, and your people.
Whether faith-filled or secular, joyful or complex, I’m here to hold space for you—lovingly, reverently, and without judgment.
Each ceremony is custom-written, never scripted or recycled. And each one is filled with what matters most—love, memory, and meaning.
Because that’s what love does.
It listens. It honors. And it shows up with grace.
