FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I am just getting started on Thumbtack and right now, reviews are more important than cost. I can officiate a wedding for as little as $200 depending on the length and complexity of the ceremony.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
It’s your day, the most important thing to me is hearing about what you would like and trying to tailor a service to your personality and relationship. Some weddings are very reverant and holy, others are more playful with lots of laughter, and those differences should be determined by the couple.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a postgraduate degree in Christian ministry called a Master of Divinity. I’m also certified for premarital counseling through a program called Prepare+Enrich, and when i was a itty bitty boy I went along with my father (who was also a minister) when he performed weddings.
