Wedding / Renewal of Vows
If you’re in need for a Christian wedding officiant, you may fill out the form below. Please also be sure to review the terms. Terms and pricing must be agreed to in order to move forward.
I generally only do weddings / vow renewals for members of the ministry. Any ceremony performed for non-members must abide by the following terms:
Ceremony Type
All ceremonies I perform must be Christian in nature. I will not perform secular ceremonies under any circumstances whatsoever. I will not perform ceremonies that go against my faith and beliefs of the ministry. The ministries beliefs may be found here.
Ceremonies may be traditional or custom. I will discuss the various traditional ceremonies available if you opt for traditional. Custom ceremonies must be within guidelines of the Christian faith. I will not perform custom ceremonies for interfaith marriages.
Price/Payment
The local (Putnam County, FL) fee is $100 plus expenses. Each county outside Putnam, is an additional $100. For example:
- Alachua, Marion, Clay, Bradford, St John’s, Volusia, Flagler Counties are $200 plus expenses.
- Duval, Baker, Levy, Citrus, Sumter, Lake, Seminole Counties are $300 plus expenses
- And so forth.
The fee is NON-REFUNDABLE, in part or in whole. Parties over 250 persons, will be charged an additional $50.
The ceremony itself is the fee. In addition to the fee is any and all travel expenses. The further the distance, the higher the cost will be.
- Travel expenses include, but are not limited to, gas, food, lodging (if distance requires)
- All expenses will be calculated and must be paid in full in advance
- If venue, pre-determined in-person meets, or any other details change, an additional cost may be added and must be paid within 48hrs of adjustment
If ceremony is not paid in full, or any adjustments are not paid, I will not perform the ceremony.
There are absolutely NO refunds. Should I decide not to perform the ceremony for any reason whatsoever, or you decide to hire another officiant for any reason whatsoever or cancel the ceremony, you will not be refunded any funds. All payments are final.
You may pay the fee with PayPal, GPay, Debit/Credit Card, or Cash. You may pay in person or via invoice sent to your email.
