FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I charge $175.00, which includes a preliminary meeting with the couple, the rehearsal (if needed; mandatory if children are in the wedding party), the ceremony, and completion of all needed paperwork. I collect a deposit of $100.00 at the first meeting, and the balance is due on the day of the ceremony.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I always meet with the couple in advance of the wedding date in order to get acquainted with each other, plan your unique ceremony, and review plans for rehearsal and wedding. I collect a $100.00 deposit at the first meeting, and the balance is due on the day of the wedding. I'll see to it that the marriage license is properly and completely filled out, and attach my credentials before returning it to the appropriate authority to be recorded.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm a graduate of Princeton Theological Seminary. I've served churches in California, New Jersey, and New York City. I have over 45 years' experience in planning and conducting meaningful, joyful wedding ceremonies.
