Margaret was so incredibly easy to work with! My husband and I were so blessed to have her officiate our wedding. From our first phone call with her to emails to the wedding rehearsal to the “I Do’s,” Margaret was amazing. We cannot thank and praise her enough for her impeccable service. We are forever grateful to her for making our day that much more magical.

Margaret was so great to work with for our wedding. No complaints from us. She was able to accommodate us when we decided not to do a portion of the ceremony the night before, and everything went off without a hitch. I got tons of compliments about the ceremony itself as well! For reference, we had a non-religious ceremony and did not write our own vows.

Details: Wedding • Non-religious (no mention of God) • 51 - 100 guests • Help writing vows will not be needed • English • Officiant will be needed at the rehearsal

Hi Susie, thank you so much.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
A variety of services are offered to meet every budget and situation. $950-$2,500
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Our typical process for working with a new couple begins with scheduling an initial consultation call or the completion of a ceremony planning questionnaire. We then proceed to reserve the desired wedding date and time by requiring a deposit through a secure link. Next, we review and have the couple sign our terms of agreement. We then work with the couple to create personalized vows and a ceremony script. It's important to note that obtaining a marriage license from the city hall is a legal requirement for the ceremony to be considered official. We will remind our clients of this step and schedule virtual meetings for any final adjustments. On the day of the ceremony, we will perform the ceremony and file the necessary documents with the city/clerk office. We also welcome non-disclosure agreements for our celebrity and high-profile clients.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am an ordained minister with the American Marriage Ministry and has been awarded an honorary doctor of divinity degree from the Universal Life Church. Additionally, she is fully registered and authorized by the Secretary of State's office in Massachusetts to legally perform marriages.
