Welcome to the history of SGW! Many have asked, "Where did SGW come from?" Allow us to share our story. SGW Media is a unique blend of three brands that united to form one powerful entity. The "S" stands for Simple Ceremonies of Northeast PA, the "G" represents our photography brand, GNK Photography, and the "W" honors the legacy of Wyoming Valley Reviews.
Since January 1st, 2016, Simple Ceremonies has been dedicated to providing affordable wedding officiant services throughout Northeast Pennsylvania. What started as a passion for helping couples celebrate their love has blossomed into a trusted service for many. We're here to make your special day memorable and stress-free, ensuring that your ceremony reflects your unique love story.
Sarah Rinaldi and I crossed paths shortly after I began my journey in the officiant service business. Sarah started her brand called Why Knot Weddings, which eventually became GNK Photography. Little did I know then that she would become one of my dearest friends. We share a deep passion and commitment to helping couples create unforgettable moments on their special day. Our has only strengthened our dedication to this beautiful work.
With our momentum rapidly growing, leading us to welcome another officiant, Michelle Kerrigan, to our team. Michelle is not only deeply passionate about performing, but she also brings her expertise in Wiccan traditions and the art of handfasting. During the pandemic, we proudly continued serve couples, ensuring that love and commitment flourished even in challenging times. We're excited to offer a diverse range of ceremonies that reflect each couple's unique story
Throughout this whole time, I took on another officiant who fits into the story later on, you all know him as False Paranormal whom I started calling FP for short. False and I started the False Paranormal NEPA Project to where we provided home investigations as well as cemeteries and some abandoned places. We did capture some orbs and an EVP. As time went on Saturday nights went from the paranormal to what is now known as Outside the Box Live! During this time, we met as the winner of our first ever gift card giveaway who eventually became one of our Co-Hosts, "The Crewmen" himself, Fred P.
Join us as we celebrate the kickoff of season four of Outside the Box Live on January 1st, 2026! What started as a simple project in my living room with just a camcorder and a phone has transformed into a dynamic virtual studio. We're thrilled to stream our live shows every Saturday night across multiple platforms. A huge thank you to all our supporters, viewers, and subscribers on Facebook and YouTube for being part of this incredible journey!
