When do you need the wedding officiant?
It’s free with no obligation to hire
Introduction: What I enjoy most about being a wedding officiant is meeting new people and discovering how they want their marriages to appear. I help them design and plan it, as well as offer different ceremonies from which to choose. As an Interfaith minister, as well as an independent Catholic priest, I have access to several different readings and can perform spiritual or civil ceremonies. I specialize in LGBT weddings, but also love performing ceremonies for people of faiths, genders, and ideologies. I am happy to travel up to 200 miles to perform what we've worked together to make happen. I also assure my clients the day is about *them* and I want it to reflect their personalities and concepts.

FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?My fee is a total of $250. I require a deposit of $100 to save the date, and the remainder on the day of the wedding.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?I meet with new customers via phone, Skype, or in person. I prefer to meet ahead of the ceremony unless that is impossible.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?I have graduated from The New Seminary in NYC where I studied various religions and theologies. I then studied for several years with OCCA, the Orthodox Catholic Church of America. I am now a priest also in Christ Catholic Church located in Fayetteville, Arkansas. I am trained in Spiritual Counseling as well.
