Introduction

Hello, I am an experienced pastor in all manner of pastoral duties. I specialize in small, intimate ceremonies, with the qualifications and knowledge to provide you the wedding ceremony of your choice. I love working with couples to help them find the best words possible that convey their love and commitment to each other. I'm an affable person who loves to laugh and have a wonderful time. Weddings are celebrations, so let's enjoy ourselves with a little fun and laughter. Feel free to give me a call, I'll look forward to working with you.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

I charge a flat rate of $200 for a tailored to your style service. Traveling over 50 miles will add $50 to the final cost. I offer a 25 percent discount for active duty military members. I also offer Graveside, Celebrations of Life or Memorial Services.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

I like to have an initial phone discussion to get some idea of your thoughts and wishes. If a more detailed process is desired, we can meet and iron out the ceremony. I also remind my couples to apply for the marriage license between 30 and 60 days prior to your wedding day, if possible. You must appear in person at your local county government center to apply.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I have been an ordained minister for nearly 35 years.

What types of customers have you worked with?

I have worked with all manner of couples, from young adults just starting out to several, shall we say, more experienced couples, wanting to be together in their golden years. I can and will work with anyone and everyone, regardless of your personal journey. My job is to make your day as special and meaningful as you had dreamed it would be!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

It is extremely important to the officiant to know the day, time and location of your ceremony up front and to not have to worry about those elements changing. If you have to make a change, it is critical that you share that as soon as possible with the officiant.
