FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Everything is covered in this price. My other stipulation is that you promise me you will join a church together on the Sunday after your honeymoon at the latest!
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We set up a phone call and go from there! I arrange a Google Doc for your ceremony plan that is yours to keep and use even if we learn that we don't agree on the Bible. For premarital counseling (which is arranged separately,) we meet twice at a coffee shop and then a final time at my house for dinner with my family. These three sessions averaging 1.5 hours in length each comprise my premarital counseling process. We start with a Genesis-to-Revelation overview of how marriage itself started in Eden and then culminates in Revelation 21. Then, after learning more about you, I send you home with some homework and some published curriculum. You're going to feel like a seminary student! We then zoom-in on Jesus' first miracle and Paul's teachings about marriage in Ephesians 5. All of these teachings influence the ceremony. So, when are together at the altar, the ceremony comes from our shared personal encounter with what the Bible teaches. The gospel is shared through your ceremony and, hopefully, people are saved!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My Doctorate of Ministry is anticipated 2019. I earned my Master of Divinity degree from New Orleans and my Bachelor's degree is from F.S.U. I am a licensed and ordained pastor. I have over 10 years' experience in full-time ministry and have officiated several weddings.
