You're planning to get married! Congratulations! Now you want to make sure everything will be perfect for your upcoming wedding.
| As a Certified Wedding Officiant
and Interfaith Minister, it
would be my distinct pleasure
to help you celebrate the most important day of your lives - Your Wedding Day! Whether you're
looking for a ceremony that is elegantly formal and uniquely
personalized, or informally simple and short (or somewhere
in-between) I will work with you to make sure that your wedding
ceremony is exactly what you want it to be: a reflection of the
uniqueness of the two of you, and a celebration of
love, joy, and commitment that your guests will remember for
many years to come. |

I'm a firm believer that two people who truly love each other and wish to commit their lives to one-another should be allowed to do so. They should not be denied happiness because they are not affiliated with a church or organized religion, nor because they are atheist or agnostic, of opposing religious beliefs, of different races, divorced, pregnant, have children, or are of the same gender; provided they each make their request to be joined of their own free will.
Therefore, I will
gladly officiate the weddings, civil unions, and joining ceremonies of all who ask and
are entitled by law.
And I welcome all members of the GLBT
community with open arms. |
I am pleased to offer my services throughout Southern New Hampshire, Southern Maine, Eastern Massachusetts, Cape Cod and the Islands.
If you are not sure if your location is covered please ask
In general, fees range from $75 for a short, elopement style, ceremony performed in your home, office, hotel room or lobby, or other location within 25 miles of Nashua, to $250 for a more formal ceremony within 100 miles of Nashua.
It is not always necessary, but should be mentioned, that additional charges are sometimes needed in order to provide you with special features that you may want to add to your ceremony, for additional meetings beyond the first free one, and/or for my presence at your wedding rehearsal (usually handled by your wedding planner or wedding consultant). Also, weddings located more than 50 miles (one way) from Nashua, NH should expect to pay reasonable travel related expenses.
Please understand that, in addition to the above, the fee for a wedding ceremony is also based upon the amount of time required to meet with the couple, plan/write/and re-write the ceremony, and the time required to physically perform the ceremony (the difficulty of which depends on the complexity of the additional elements you select). It also includes driving time, waiting time (I have yet to see a wedding start on-time) and the time required to complete and file the marriage license with the appropriate state office. In total, this can take up to ten or more hours, depending on the ceremony you select.
In order to quote you a definite price I will need to know more about your wedding preferences, requirements, and location, which we can discuss over the phone or during our first meeting.
If you haven't already done so, please check out my "About Me" page
to learn more about my qualifications and abilities to perform the
perfect wedding ceremony for you!
