Officiation ~ FAQ'S

What is your faith?
My point of view is that your faith is what matters during your ceremony.  Whether you believe in Our Father In Heaven, Mother Earth, or Rock n' Roll, your beliefs and traditions will be honored, according to your desires.

What do your prices include?
Prices include customization of the wedding ceremony, guidance and assistance with planning the wedding ceremony, and in most cases (unless prohibited by distance) at least one in-person meeting and as many telephone or email discussions as you need to be comfortable with the wedding ceremony plans.

Do you provide ceremony supplies, sound equipment, etc.?  
No.  There are supplies in numerous specialty stores and on the internet.  Colored sand for unity sand ceremonies can also be purchased at craft stores.

What are travel and time fees?
If travel outside of the local travel radius, gas, mileage, tolls, and time will be reimbursed.
What happens if you cannot make it to the ceremony?  

In the unlikely event that I am struck by lightening, trapped under something extremely heavy, or exposed to a deadly virus, a suitable replacement will be found.

If you are not available, do you have other officiants you recommend?
Yes.  If unavailable on the date you have selected, I am happy to offer suitable alternatives.

Will you incorporate elements from another culture or religion?
This is up to you.  I personally find that multicultural customs and traditions add unique flavor and meaning.  All ideas open for discussion.

Do you attend the rehearsal dinner or reception?
No.  This is a time for friends and family.  It is an honor to share your ceremony with you and your guests.

What about wedding rehearsals?
There is no fee to rehearse (or "run through" of positions) just prior to your ceremony.  The Bride and Groom can be coached separately, if they do not wish to see each other prior to the ceremony. Wedding rehearsals on a different day are available for an additional fee. Many smaller weddings do not need a rehearsal on a separate day. Some couples prefer to do their own rehearsal.  

How long are your ceremonies?
Ceremonies typically run about 20 minutes, depending on the elements you have chosen for your ceremony.  Longer is possible, though too long can detract from the overall impact of the ceremony.

Are we required to meet with you?
No.  All arrangements can be made via email, phone, and Skype (or Facetime). If you would like to meet in person, that can be arranged, depending on location.

Do you pass judgments on whether a couple should get married?
No.  I see marriage as a choice. My role is one of non-judgement and contribution to what you wish to create.  All marriages celebrated.

How early do you arrive for a ceremony?
I arrive roughly 45 minutes early for the Classic and Premium wedding ceremonies.  Less than 30 minutes prior for the Short and Sweet wedding ceremonies.

Are you available for weddings on short notice?
Yes, given availability.  

Is premarital counseling required?
No.  If you wish to receive pre-marital facilitation, that can be arranged as a separate service.

How much say do I have in what is included in my ceremony?
You may involve yourself as much or as little as you desire in the ceremony creation process. 

Do I need to follow any wedding rules?
This is your wedding.  You will find a statement of intent and vows in each service, however, there are no hard and fast rules.
