Rehearsal fee Our favorite locations are (Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Smoky Mountains, and Cades Cove) and we can help you through the National Park registration for wedding/elopement requirements. Can offer suggestions for local wedding venues as well. And should you want a small intimate space, we know many spots. Vow Renewal is also a wonderful ceremony, renewing those promises from years ago. We are located in the Sevierville area of beautiful East Tennessee. We travel miles for our bride and grooms. I am ordained and licensed to officiate in Tennessee. I am ordained under five different church/denominational organizations. Our ceremonies mention God and can add your traditions, rendering a beautiful event for the Bride and Groom. Once you respond to our quote, I can provide further information and examples of our wedding ceremonies with references for our services. We look forward to hearing from you. Our most favorite part of the wedding is the moment when the Groom and Bride kiss and are introduced as Mr. and Mrs. It is the moment when everything comes together closing out a beautiful ceremony in the bride and groom's lives, and thus becoming a marriage. (but I aways remind the groom, she will always be your bride) Pre Marital and Marital Counseling is also available and encouraged.
