Wedding Officiants in Brooklyn Park, MN

Are you getting married soon? Do you get queasy at the very thought of having a ceremony that's so off-the-shelf common that you could simply change the names of the participants and you'd be ready to go? If the mere idea of this cookie-cutter approach to your wedding -- one that blurs into an easily forgotten "Dearly beloved..." haze -- gives you hives, you're the right person to go the Nonconformist Nuptials route. A nonconformist is one who refuses to be bound by accepted beliefs, customs, or practices. If you want a deeply spiritual (albeit not affiliated with any specific organized religion) or secular wedding, vow renewal or commitment ceremony (known hereafter as the Pinky Swear-emony®), Sid Korpi is your dream officiant. With nearly four decades of experience in public speaking/acting, professional writing/editing and party planning -- not to mention nearly six decades of experience being a genuine nonconformist, she has all the skills and the legal power vested in her by the state of Minnesota to help you write, plan and pull off a singular, unique-to-you ceremony people will buzz about for years to come. Her fee is $300 to write* and deliver your guaranteed unique-to-you ceremony and mail your signed wedding certificate to the Hennepin County (or other Twin Cities area) Government Center. * She will extensively interview you and your betrothed in order to write your ceremony for you to your specifications. * Meeting the day before the wedding for a rehearsal -- optional but recommended for any but the smallest, simplest of ceremonies (for an additional travel expense fee) Call Sid Korpi to set up a time to meet at her home on West 7th Street in Saint Paul. There's no charge, and the meeting usually takes about 90 minutes. It's just to see if you are all kindred spirits. Your wedding is too important to choose anyone but the perfect-for-you officiant (All parties reserve the right to respectfully decline to proceed if there is not a meeting of the minds regarding the substance of the ceremony). Decide to go with Nonconformist Nuptials and a nonrefundable $100 deposit is all that's needed to reserve your wedding/other ceremony date and will be deducted from the balance, which is due the day of the ceremony. Read what recent Nonconformist Nuptials clients have had to say. "Sid, thank you so much for everything! We were so blessed to have you as part of our special day! Sid, you did an amazing job! Thank you again." - Jake and Stacey (Adelmann) married by Sid Korpi on September 21, 2007 "All of my family just adored you! Thank you for the wonderful job you did. You really made our ceremony more personal and enjoyable. Thank you Sid. I could never thank you enough!" - Heather Marie Anderson, married to Ryan Anderson on May 2, 2009 ''We are so happy that Sid was able to officiate our wedding ceremony. She offered us many creative ideas and helped edit our ceremony to make it more 'us'. It was great to meet with her ahead of time. We really were happy with our decision to have her participate in our wedding.'' - Kristi Coley-Stephan, married to Dave Stephan on May 29, 2009

Congratulations on your wedding. I, along with all the others, want to help you have a memorable day Yes, I do Weddings, AND Baptisms AND Celebrations of Life! If my profile shows up, that means I am available. My prices are a reflection of the 300+ Weddings, I've performed, over 300 Weddings here just on Thumbtack !!!!

I can do last minute weddings and have done a number of them where other officiants have not shown up. So I get the call. As long as you have the license I'm good to go. With A few days notice I do write a personalized wedding ceremony. Nothing canned or memorized. We talk. I find out details about the 2 of you and then get to writing after that. Let's talk about your wedding and get the details on paper. Just request me, but please understand all officiants get charged a fee when you request a quote. We all want to talk with you since we get charged. We are not shy. We love talking to you. I believe all of us are LBGTQ+ friendly. We will do outside or inside weddings. Most of us know the park's, venues, etc. If the wedding is far away don't be surprised if we ask for a larger fee as we have expenses too.
