A. This is your ceremony, we are willing to include anything you would like that means something to you in the ceremony. This is your ceremony and should be something you remember for ever and ever.

A. Can you do a wedding anywhere in Ohio?
Yes anywhere in Ohio, 7 days a week. There are three of us, Claude - Alexandria and Nora - that are available for your ceremony needs.

A. Well a nightmare story is with animals...a bride fell off the horse when coming down the aisle, the dog bit the father of the bride doves flew up into the brides face creating panic, and the butterflies in envelopes were all traumatized and refused to fly.
Not favorites but notable to know if deciding to have any such animals in your wedding.
