My story

From the stage to my heart business – my path to becoming a certified ceremony leader

My path to becoming a ceremony leader and singer began with a love of music and the desire to accompany people through important moments in their lives.

​

Even as a child, I dreamed of touching hearts with my voice.

Music was my home, my language – and it remains so to this day. After many years in the fashion industry, including sales for wedding and formal wear, I decided to follow my inner calling:
I wanted to do more than just selling beautiful clothing collections – I wanted to tell stories, touch people, create memories, and leave a positive mark on their lives.

​

Today, I'm privileged to do just that: I design personalized ceremonies for weddings, welcoming parties, and other life transitions. I write speeches, find words for the unspeakable—and let music resonate where words alone aren't enough.

My philosophy

Every moment deserves words – and music

For me, every ceremony is full heart moments - whether it's a wedding, a baby welcoming or naming ceremony, a funeral, a funeral or a personal new beginning. I believe that every person, every story, and every moment in life deserves a unique way to be celebrated or honored.

My work is characterized by authenticity, creativity, and a deep sensitivity for people. I listen and lovingly incorporate your wishes, creating ceremonies that reflect you—with words that touch and music that lasts.

As a ceremony leader, I create moments with you that are powerful, emotional, and authentic. As a singer, I bring sound and emotion into the ceremony – with songs that touch the heart.

​

My vision: “Leave a positive mark and genuine emotions - in a moment that lasts forever.”

“We couldn’t have wished for a better person to accompany us for our wedding ceremony on the beach in Crete. From the very beginning, Sonja was so much more than just our wedding celebrant. She supported us throughout the entire wedding planning process, was always there for us and guided us with so much warmth, dedication and care.

Our ceremony was personal, emotional and filled with beautiful little surprises. As our celebrant, ceremony coordinator and singer, Sonja made our special day truly unforgettable. Her beautiful live singing on the beach was one of the absolute highlights of our wedding.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, dear Sonja, for being by our side throughout this journey and making it so personal and special. We’re already looking forward to seeing you again! ❤️”

"Sonja...She is an amazing person who guided us through the wedding ceremony with so much emotion and romance♥️. We are absolutely delighted, and all our guests were amazed. She took care of every detail. Sonja included lots of little surprises that made it extra special. She led the ceremony in both German and English, with a few Polish words, so everyone felt included. She also sang live during the ceremony, and it was such a lovely and emotional moment. We are so happy we chose her and would highly recommend her!"

“Dear Sonja,

we are so grateful for the loving and personal way you created the farewell ceremony for our mum, Rita.

We were especially touched when you sang ‘Luftballon’ by Helene Fischer as we released the blue balloons into the sky together. The fact that you knew our mum personally made the ceremony even more meaningful and special to us.

We are certain she would have loved the beautiful way you accompanied her, together with us, on her final journey.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

A big hug” ❤️

“Sonja organised a beautiful welcome ceremony for our daughter and created a truly wonderful and heartfelt celebration.

She is incredibly warm and empathetic and somehow managed to remember every little detail from the stories we shared with her, weaving them beautifully into the ceremony.

She also created the most amazing ceremony table with photos from our daughter’s first year, along with so many other thoughtful and lovely little details. Everything was prepared with so much care and love.

We would wholeheartedly recommend Sonja to anyone!” ❤️

That's me

Who I am – beyond the stage

I'm originally from northern Germany, on the Baltic Sea. An exciting job offer led me to move to the canton of Zurich in beautiful Switzerland almost 15 years ago. Here, too, I found both professional and personal happiness, my "home base," and I feel completely at home.

​

My family and friends describe me as open, curious, emotional, tolerant, reliable, agile, and down-to-earth. I love traveling, getting to know foreign countries and cultures, and constantly broadening my horizons. Even during my school years, I co-wrote and sang in musicals, participated in various choirs, including leading a children's choir during my US high school year, and later sang in cover bands.

​

I love tulle skirts, a bit princess-like, combined with a denim or leather jacket, and my Converse Chucks. At the same time, I also like to be a chameleon, constantly combining old and new styles. This creative diversity is also reflected in my weddings and musical performances.

Ready for your heart ceremony?

I look forward to getting to know you – and creating something unique together.
