My Services and Fees

It is my choice to give you all the information up front so that you can make a good decision.
I know that this is very long, but it is filled with valuable information.

Types of Services Offered:
 
I offer Basic, Standard and Custom Ceremony services.

The Basic ceremony takes a few minutes. It is simply an exchange of vows. This is a simple, pre-written ceremony. This ceremony is what most other officiants offer, it is secular in tone so that it is appropriate for any religion.
It's great for an elopement, or very small gathering of less than 25. This ceremony works very well for a vow renewal ceremony as well.
There is no in person consultation for the basic service. A telephone consultation is all that is needed.
The ceremony can be selected from several samples provided.
 
 
A Standard Pre-scripted Ceremony is already written for performance at your chosen site. However, it is clearly a more elaborate ceremony- my intention is to simplify without losing purpose or elegance.
 
This ceremony is very popular with many couples and their guests, used mainly for couples who want a small gathering, perhaps at a reception hall or in someone's back yard, and want the wedding ceremony to last 20 to 30 minutes.

This ceremony can be semi-personalized to fit the couple, using different openings, readings,vows, ring exchange, unity ceremony (sand, wine, candle, etc), final blessing, and pronouncement.
 
A Spritual or Religious Ceremony can be choosen  if you would prefer under the standard ceremony service.
 
 
 
For those who want to be creative I offer the Custom service, which allows the couple to design whatever they want. This service is popular with the couples who use chapels, or for those who get married at special locations.
 
This type of ceremony also incorporates cultural traditions a couple might wish to have in their ceremony.
 
Do not be afraid to "step outside the box" and be unique. Your guests will love attending a wedding that makes them wonder what will happen next. Relax protocol, have fun and don't be afraid to ask for your own thoughts, ideas and dreams to be included in this type of ceremony.

The Officiant fees should be considered a very small but very necessary part of the overall expense of the occasion. 

I find that I have been one of the most affordable Ministers to officiate wedding ceremonies in the State of Colorado. I'm trying to keep my wedding officiant rates affordable without compromising the priority of personalized attention to each couple and their own wedding.

For most ceremonies fees are between $250.00 and $750.00.

If you are eloping or finding an officiant in a short time please do call me, I have several basic ceremonies that you can choose from to make a ceremony just for you.

For couples on a limited budget, please contact me - I will work with you and your budget, so that your wedding is truely wonderful. I would rather be there for you, if what I offer is what you need and want, than have cost be a dominant factor.



Other Services I Offer:

Recomittment of Wedding Vows
For those wishing to say them again -- A celebration of times past and times future...

House Blessings
A House Blessing is a delightful way to begin in a new home or to begin anew in an existing home. A home blessing is a unique opportunity to clear out old energies on the spiritual level and to balance the energies of your new home with you and your family. The blessing helps your new home to feel like home and speaks directly to your hopes for happiness and harmony in your new space.

Business Blessings
It is as important a milestone as any other and is particularly important to clear and bless the business and its location both in the beginning to set your original intention, and each time that you either expand your operation or move to a new location.

Baby Dedications / Child Blessings
A Baby Dedication Ceremony or a Child Blessing Ceremony publicly recognizes the value and promise inherent in each child and can be a profound experience for the children and the family that loves them. I am always delighted to invoke the power of love in the blessing of all children.

Rites of Passages of Time
To honor the person(s) taking the next step in life.
Birthdays
Graduations
First or New Job
Family Reunions

Rememberances
Bidding farewell to one who has begun the journey from life into death.

Animal and Pet Blessings
They are our loyal companions and our faithful friends, a constant source of joy and inspiration.
I believe that most pets are like angels that accompany us on part of our journey.
