About
As your wedding officiant I always prioritize the Bride and Groom. I provide complete support throughout the wedding process. I believe the thing that makes me stand out from others is that I always bring 'LOVE' to the Wedding Ceremony.
I love presiding at weddings and it makes the process a lot more fun.
Handfasting is fun and would be a great part of your wedding,,
I love the idea of helping people start out their brand new adventure of a life together based on the concept of 'Love'. I know that when you give 'love' then you get 'love' and that is what the wedding ceremony is all about to me.
Thanks again,,, Live in love,
Richard Blackstone

We had a few extra requirements for our officiant, because we were having a pirate theme wedding. He was very willing to dress up and play his part, as well as perform all the required "official duties". The rest of the wedding participants enjoyed the atmosphere that he set for the gathering. I would recommend him for a more traditional wedding as well.

Richard is a sweetie. We had a very small and casual ceremony in our home and he fit perfectly (aside that he was overdressed for our occasion...Ha)! Thank you, Richard! I wish we could have had more time for you and your lovely wife. Best day of our lives! Live, Laugh, LOVE!

Richard and his wife were so very attentive and flexible for us. It was a short notice and unconventional wedding ceremony and Richard made me feel at easy with his patience and experience. It was a beautiful venue. I don't have pictures yet but I was so thankful for the wholistic service.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is simple:
Wedding only: $150.00

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Go with your feelings. All I can promise is to bring Love to Your Wedding Ceremony. If that feels good to you then please call me for a Strategy Session. Your Wedding information is essential to see if we are in alignment and we can have some fun in the process.
