We cannot recommend Fays Finesse enough!! Once we decided on Fay to officiate our wedding, she wrote our entire ceremony for us without ever meeting us in person, and it was still perfect! She showed up early on the day of the wedding, and helped finish the set up! She was even able to accommodate our themed wedding! She was professional throughout, but had just the right sense of humor as well. We can't thank her enough!!
Details: non-religious. LGBTQ. Medieval themed. Hand fasting and ring warming ceremonies.
Details: Wedding • Non-religious (no mention of God) • 21 - 50 guests • Help writing vows will be needed • English • Officiant will not be needed at the rehearsal • Officiant does not need to be present at rehearsal

Fay was the officiant for my wedding on October 2nd. She was absolutely wonderful! ❤ Fay showed up early for the rehearsal and the ceremony and was always super organized and on top of everything. She is incredibly kind and warm. Fay was also so understanding about needing to reschedule our wedding because of Covid-19. She really took a lot of stress out of the day and made it fun! Our ceremony was beautiful and exactly what I wanted. Dont hesitant to book her! Fay is the best!

Fay is AMAZING!! We hired her for our October 16th 2021 wedding. She performed a beautiful ceremony with all the things we wanted to I nclude. She was always responsive to our emails/calls/texts and always tried to accommodate our requests. She was very organized and always on top of things. We are so happy we hired her for our special day. She made us completely at ease and she quickly become more like a close friend. I highly recommend her to ANYONE looking for officiant. She is well worth it!!! We are over the moon with the her and the services she provided.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is far below other officiant pricing. For an intern minister or retired judge, you may be charged up to $300 to $500 or more for an experienced church minister or a professional officiant. The national average cost for a pastor or priest to officiate a wedding in 2016 is $278 according to The Knot.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Meeting/calling prior to ceremony, emailing ceremony structure and vows if needed. Attending rehearsal if needed.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a retired Special Education Teacher therefore standing and talking in front of people is not an issue.
