What is a "Celebrant" and why is that unique?

Unlike a standard officiant who shows up on the day of the event and reads a canned script, a certified Wedding Celebrant works with the couple, often weeks to months in advance, to co-create a story that will capture the spirit of their love and commitment to each other.

Can a Celebrant replace a priest or rabbi in a religious ceremony?

Absolutely not. Celebrants uphold high ethical standards and will not pretend to take the place of authority in religious setting. Celebrants can assist if asked, but the Celebrant is more appropriate when the couple wants a unique ceremony comprised of their own words and adaptations of ritual.

So what do I, as a Celebrant, provide?

Unlimited ceremony script consultations and updates.

Research & resource material.

Consultations with your wedding or event planner, caterer, photographer, videographer, musicians, DJ, and venue staff as needed.

Rehearsal at the venue or at another agreed upon location.

Officiating at ceremony.

Notary signature of marriage license after the ceremony in the State of Florida where applicable.
