Who is Ruffled by Grace?
Rev. Michelle brings over 20 years of experience in ministry, having served in both local parishes and entrepreneurial ministry settings. As a skilled preacher and creative liturgical writer, she offers a wide range of pastoral services tailored to meet the unique needs of individuals and congregations.
A story of glitter, grief, grace, and the faith that refuses to quit
Ruffled by Grace is not your typical faith memoir. This bold and beautiful debut by Pastor Michelle Wahila invites readers into the sacred mess of life, ministry, motherhood, and healing.
With raw vulnerability and poetic prose, Michelle weaves her story from the stained-glass ceilings of the institutional church to a life-giving ministry in Paris-officiating queer weddings, leading boudoir workshops, and rewriting what sacred service looks like.
A must-read for anyone recovering from toxic church culture, caregiving burnout, or spiritual disillusionment.
Part memoir. Part prayer book. All heart.

For the Love of Weddings
Your story is unique, and it deserves to be celebrated. Let me honor your love by crafting a personalized ceremony that reflects who you are as a couple.
Whether you’re drawn to a lighthearted, modern tone or prefer more traditional, faith-centered language, I’ll thoughtfully weave your journey into a ceremony that speaks to your hearts. My ceremonies are far from ordinary—anticipate laughter, tears, and moments that will stay with you forever.
Based in Paris, but traveling the world to show that spiritual doesn’t have to be boring—sometimes, blessing breaks the rules.

“A trusted friend suggested Rev. Michelle Wahila for our Paris wedding— and she was a perfect match with fantastic communication, planning, and a dose of laughter.
We wanted to include our own faith traditions, and Michelle brought it all to life better than we could have hoped. We are thankful and will recommend her in a heartbeat!“
