With so many variables to consider, the cost may vary depending on the time, place and mileage.
Before making a final decision, all fees should be openly discussed and agreed upon.
How should I expect the officiant to be dressed?

Most officiants present themselves
In a Suit or Robe & Stole.
Casual shirt and slacks ( If requested)
Whatever is pleasing to the bride and the groom.
How much information does your officiant need?

The officiant needs to be informed of time, place,
style of ceremony, directions to ceremony site
and a contact person the day of your wedding.

What will happen In case of an Emergency?
____________________________________
Most officiants have a
friend or partner that can step in if an emergency comes up.
This rarely happens but it is always good to be prepared.
Ask your officiant about his or her back up plan.
If anything changes at all make sure you and your officiant
are on the same page.
Marriage is not a ritual or an end. It is a long, intricate, intimate dance together and nothing matters more than your own sense of balance and your choice of partner. - Amy Bloom -
