Information & Pricing

Above all, I know that each wedding will be different and unique to the couple; very few will fit into a cookie-cutter format.  However, the information below can serve as a starting point and answer some preliminary questions.  Please contact me to discuss further your needs, your wishes and how we can bring those together.  There is no cost for the initial consultation.  We want to meet to make sure we are a "good match" - primarily I want your day to be special!  
(The initial consultation can be done in-person, over the phone, or over Skype/FaceTime etc.)
​Click on "Wedding Agreement" or "Fee Schedule" after for more specific information.

Ceremony

I have shared in the largest of ceremonies with six attendants on each side and over 300 guests, as well as small intimate ceremonies with just family present inside a living room, and a BBQ outback afterward.  The most basic of ceremonies includes just that, a simple, yet beautiful ceremony with all the important parts.  Based on your preferences we can also add portions that reflect your journey as a couple such as unity ceremonies (Wine Box ceremonies, Sand ceremonies and Unity Candle ceremonies) or more religious portions like communion.  I will work with your vendors as needed to make sure sound, music, candles, etc are all where they need to be to make your ceremony your dream come true.

Consultation & Planning

Every couple I work with receives Consultation & Planning as part of their package to assure that their ceremony is unique to who they are, and reflects them as a couple.  Consultation & Planning sessions are included in the price, and we will meet as many times as needed (within reason) to assure that you are not only happy with, but excited about your ceremony.  Though I appreciate the meetings to get to know the couple more, after the initial meeting, much of the Consultation & Planning can also happen over email.

Rehearsal

A rehearsal is not required for smaller ceremonies, though recommended as they help calm nerves and quiet some of the chaos that can come with weddings.  Larger ceremonies with more participants DO require a rehearsal, which is reflected in the cost.  Rehearsals typically take place the night before the ceremony, though sometimes two nights before.  We can work with your venue to determine the best rehearsal time, based on their availability and to make sure as many of your participants can participate.  I also take this time as an opportunity to introduce myself to parents, children, grandparents, etc. whom I might be working with on the day of your ceremony.

Pre-Marital Counseling

Pre-Marital Counseling is not required, though I highly recommend it.  Despite what movies and TV will tell you, it IS NOT an opportunity for me to say "you're ready!" or "you're not ready!"  Pre-Marital Counseling is an opportunity for an un-biased third party to help you identify your areas of strength in your relationship, and areas that present an opportunity for growth.  I am a PREPARE-ENRICH certified facilitator and encourage use of this proven and trusted program.  Pre-Marital counseling is offered at an extra charge.

Check out the video to the left to get an idea of how I like to make each wedding unique to the couple.  I can be as involved, or as removed as you would like - bringing integrity and sincerity to your ceremony no matter what.
