FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Please know that there is so much more that goes into your Wedding or Vow Renewal Ceremony than just the 20-30 minutes on the actual Celebration Day. Preparing your custom ceremony, travel, help with Vows, unlimited consultation and filing your marriage license. I do my best to hold my BASE rate consistent @ $235, however, due to distance and added expenses, there is an additional $65 charge you will need to add to my base price for Weddings held in the following areas: *Sanibel & Captiva Islands, and all points South including NAPLES *St Pete Beaches *Clearwater *Tampa & all other points North. PLEASE NOTE: The fee for weddings/ceremonies in these locations will be $300 Something about Rehearsals: I do have an Add On cost if you need me to attend, however, let’s talks about this! If you have a wedding planner/coordinator, please save your money as you really do not need to have the officiant present. Even without a Planner you may not need me there. I have officiated close to 200 weddings - I do my best to arrive 45-60 minutes prior to the ceremony. Anything “special” I may need to know can happen then. I am always open to attending the Rehearsal - just know that you have options that may not be so costly! Thanks!
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I am open to communicating over the phone initially and following up through email and text. Consultations are held over the phone or virtually via Zoom, Facetime or Google Duo so we can get to "see" one another!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Masters degree in Ministry/Pastoral Counseling. I am Ordained Clergy with MCC and serve as the Pastor of Congregational Life at my church and preach when needed.
