About

Attn: Brides and Grooms: Remember, seven days a week, our civil celebrants/wedding ministers perform ceremonies at all churches, venues and homes weddings in VA/DC/OH/WV/TN/TX/AL/UT remotely by ZOOM for $100. Wedding Ministers don't have offices since we have our own venues, and Henrico County. Virginia does not allow weddings in home-offices or officiant homes and weddings are no longer done in the courthouse or by the Magistrates. We are now officiating remotely by ZOOM in Virginia, DC, West Virginia, Ohio, Texas, Alabama, Tennessee and Utah. If we officiate remotely by ZOOM, the fee is only $100, and we must have the marriage license and the fee PRIOR to the day of your wedding, and you must have a ZOOM account and invite the officiant, and all guests. In Virginia , get your marriage license, and get married at my Henrico Govt Center venues seven days a week Here is the chance to get married by the top wedding minister in the region (9 states), Rev. Byron Sichert. The Officiant fee is only $100 and your guests can include all your family and friends! Maryland Weddings are done at Courthouse Square Park or Schoolhouse Pond for $200 and all guests welcome, or at your location with a fee of $200-$400 with all guests welcome. Rehearsal Services range from $100-$200. The officiant determines if they will officiate by ZOOM or from the ceremony location. There is no venue fee! VA DOC $100 Virginia State Prison Phone Call, and Inperson Weddings by phone to allow phone guests! We do all VA DOC Inperson weddings by phone since we do multiple weddings every day and have no travel time between weddings. (does NOT apply to local jails, regional jails, and federal prisons in Virginia since they are NOT VA DOC facilities and the fee ranges from $200-$400.) (Google our Affiliate listings Virginia Prison Wedding Ministers for details on Virginia Prison Weddings and Utah ZOOM Weddings for details on ZOOM Weddings.) For all Weddings, only one of the two marital parties must be in Virginia at the time of the Wedding. The other party can be anywhere in the U S. Or another Country,

We have not raised prices like many venues and vendors, so we are doing the most weddings. Basic Spanish (meet legal requirement) ceremonies that we choose are performed at our venues and must be scheduled in English. Because of the backlog on Local Church Ordinations, we are now referring them to select local churches and select VA Circuit Courts. As the top regional (9 States) Wedding Minister for 40 years, Rev. Byron Sichert looks forward to hearing from you! We perform non-religious, semi-religious, interfaith, and Christian ceremonies. We will be happy to send you our ceremony link which you can use with your own material and words to design your ceremony. We perform both traditional and same sex ceremonies! All of our Officiants are Christian Ministers! If a wedding is at a local jail, regional jail, or Federal Prison in Virginia, you will have to check with the facility on policy and procedure! Our fee ranges from $200-$400. It is an honor for my associates and I to be performing the majority of the Virginia Prison Weddings and to be the Top Prison Wedding Ministers!

PRICING LISTED HERE IS THE CURRENT PRICING. AS IT REMAINS LISTED IN EFFECT, THE PRICING ON THE LINK WILL NOT BE IN EFFECT!

Wonderful SCDOC Wedding

Rev. Byron is the Best in getting South Carolina DOC inmates married. Since South Carolina inmates can't get Marriage Licenses, all the ceremonies are done thru Kansas. Rev. Byron does all those ceremonies now because of complaints on the other Officiants in Kansas. Trish and Kyle
