FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Everything is included to make your ceremony terrific and professional. My price includes all preparations; conveying the requirements of the County for the marriage license; providing you examples of beautiful readings, vows, or add-ons (such as a Sand Ceremony); running the rehearsal (if you need one) or an upfront call to work out the ceremony; and sending the marriage license into the County or Parish Clerk via Certified Mail. All travel expenses are included if within 90 minutes from Chapel Hill, NC.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I will reach out to the new customer first, send a detailed questionnaire, and set up a 30 minute conversation which is a "getting to know you" call, and to answer the questions so they get the wedding of their dreams, and I will also go over how to get the marriage license. After our initial telephone consultation, I send examples of vows and readings, send any other information required, and a contract. Also, if you do not have a rehearsal (many couples don't), I organize a final telephone consultation 2 - 3 days before your wedding, so you can relax and concentrate on getting married, and not worry about loads of last minute decisions!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a Licensed Wedding Officiant with Christian Leaders Alliance since May 2024, following Ordination with ULC since December 2018, and presently working towards full Minster status with Christian Leaders. I have heavy experience in public speaking, community theatre, and in preparing and delivering training seminars and classes. I have also acted as a Lay Minister and Lector at Churches in South Carolina, New Zealand, and Louisiana.
