• 1. Do you provide sample services for us to review?

  Yes, we send several ceremonies of the specific type of ceremonies you would desire: Civil, Religious (Catholic, Protestant, Non-Denominational, Interfaith, and Spiritual), Inter-ethnic and Interracial. We also send an information sheet about "Clergy For Weddings", a sampling of where we have officiated, wedding option list and a contact sheet.

• 2. How much notice do you need to book us?

  We book weddings anywhere between 1 day and 3 years. Although we receive one or two calls every year from wedding coordinators at facilities where we have had weddings asking us to come immediately to fill in for a minister or judge who failed to appear. The more lead time we have the better the chance we can guarantee a wedding officiant for a specific date, time and location as well as exactly the type of wedding ceremony which fits your particular needs.

  Thank you so much for officiating at our wedding. The service was beautiful. We loved that we were able to put our ceremony together under your guidance so it fit our beliefs and thoughts of our marriage as you often said: "this is our day and we should have the ceremony the way we want it." You were there to support us and fit the pieces together to make the ceremony flow
