When do you need the wedding officiant?

It’s free with no obligation to hire

Introduction: Our work stands out because we work closely with the couple to be sure they are involved in the planning of the service and have as much input as they want. No service is too small or too big. The thing that I like most is seeing the joy in the eyes of the couple when I say, "I now pronounce you man and wife." Weddings are a time of joy and happiness.

Dr. Black was awesome from beginning to end. He was very responsive from first contact and was great throughout the whole process. He sent the perfect script for our wedding right out of the gate. He arrived on time and was very patient when we were not ready right on time. Very friendly and cordial with all the guests. I highly recommend using Dr. Black. You will not be disappointed!

Dr Black did an amazing job with our wedding. We didn’t have a lot of ideas, but Dr Black took a short conversation and turned it into beautiful vows that made our day very special.

He was so kind and very quick with the ceremony which is exactly what we wanted. He showed up on time and gave us a lot of info - not to mention he is a hoot to talk to! He was professional and funny and I could not recommend him enough!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Our fees start at $80 for ceremonies performed at my office. The fee for a wedding ceremony within 25 miles of my office is $150, and the fee for attending and participating in the rehearsal is $100. For services outside the 25-mile range, there will be additional fees based on time and mileage,
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Once I have been booked for a wedding, I will arrange a meeting with the couple to discuss their wedding plans. After the meeting, I develop a wedding script based on the conservation with the couple. I email the script to the couple for their review and consideration. The finalized script will be used for the wedding ceremony. Following the ceremony I available for pictures. After the ceremony, I will complete the paperwork and mail to the appropriate county clerk's office.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I served as a Youth Minister for nine years.
