As the "Wedding Witch of Salem,"

I create and officiate unforgettable ceremonies that are uniquely

tailored to each couple.

My name is Tara McMullen-King, and I am the magical creatrix behind Witchy Woman Weddings. I meticulously craft and joyously officiate wedding, handfasting, commitment, and vow renewal ceremonies for unique couples, infusing them with personalized touches!

​​

I am deeply passionate about marriage equality and believe that every couple deserves a ceremony that reflects them with authenticity, respect, and joy. My commitment is to create inclusive, affirming, and meaningful ceremonies - where all love is honored, and every person is seen, valued, and celebrated for exactly who they are. While I craft ceremonies for all couples, I have a special love for working with offbeat folks and fellow members of the LGBTQ+ community because I understand how precious it is to feel safe, seen, and celebrated.

​

Whether you’re drawn to a Pagan handfasting, a spiritual-but-not-religious ceremony, a traditional wedding, or something uniquely offbeat, your ceremony should celebrate your story and reflect your authentic selves. We can weave in witchy or spiritual elements, embrace quirky traditions, or simply create space for your story to shine - I’m here to design a ceremony that feels deeply personal, true, and beautifully you.

 

I work with local couples and folks from across the United States - and beyond - who want to travel to Salem to declare their love and commitment in this unique, historical, bewitching city. For those traveling here, I am a knowledgeable guide and a valuable resource, delivering customized advice and tips to help them and their guests plan a fantastic trip to the Witch City. As part of my services, I also offer basic event planning consulting to all my couples, and have certain décor items and equipment available for them to rent.

While I primarily work in Salem and the Greater Boston area, I also officiate across New England and can marry couples in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, Connecticut, and Rhode Island!
