Introduction

**Please note I am also available for remote wedding services** I’ve always enjoyed weddings and the words shared by wedding officiants who make the day special for the couple. My goal is to deliver beautiful words that will resonate with the attendees and the couple to remember a special day. Upon hiring me, we will have an initial call where we will discuss the details of your ceremony. Before sending the draft, I ask for a deposit (typically done within 48 hrs) to reserve your date. From there, we will discuss the remaining balance after you approve the final draft. I do prefer to connect over the phone with clients beforehand to make sure I am the perfect fit for their big day and to further go over details. Additionally, I am available to speak at memorial services and help your loved ones be remembered through this type of ceremony. **Please note the deposit is nonrefundable**

Q&A

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

The deposit is nonrefundable bc I send out a draft of the ceremony to the client which involves me doing some work. Added fees would include editing/help with personal vows or attending an in person rehearsal. I also get questions on tipping. It is NOT mandatory, but it is always appreciated because it let’s me know you are extra pleased with my work 😊 anyone providing a service would greatly appreciate being tipped

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

I like to send a draft of the ceremony to the couple to make sure they are happy with what is going to be said. Revisions are included in the price and I will work with the couple to make sure the words are perfect.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

A while back one of my old Sgts had mention I’d be great at it so it was always in the back of my mind; it wasn’t until my dear friends asked me to officiate their wedding that I actually got my cert and have been officiating for the past year now!

What types of customers have you worked with?

Friends, strangers, all walks of life!

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

Most recently I was asked to do a memorial service for a family who lost someone during the pandemic. It was an honor to not only write the service for the man but also share memories with his family.
