About My Fees: Most of my work is done prior to your ceremony. I spend hours discussing your ideas,
dreams, and needs for the ceremony, drafting and revising, researching the perfect readings,
designing rituals and ceremonies that fit your unique circumstances, organizing your bridal party, and
making sure your DJ, photographer, wedding planner, and everyone else knows the cues so your
special day goes smoothly.
Fees are determined by these factors, along with travel.
I aim to exceed your expectations, regardless of your budget. Let's discuss what you need and what I
can do for you.
