Dearly beloved, you are gathered here today to find an officiant service to help you with your big day.
Here at Vow and Forever, we specialize in creating distinctive and personalized ceremonies that authentically reflect the love and commitment of your union. Every couple is unique, and as such, every ceremony that we perform is equally unique. Our team has a combined 40 years of expertise in writing, coordinating, presenting, and public speaking, coupled with a desire to make your wedding truly memorable. We have witnessed many weddings across various faiths, and while we can certainly accommodate most requirements, our ceremonies are focused on the couple -- enough to be respectful of customs and traditions while not getting struck by lightning in the process. Our guiding principle is to make sure couples feel like their ceremony is one-of-a-kind, so we generally don't sell "packages" that you can order off a menu. We offer a flat rate that covers the process end to end -- from getting to know you to script writing, rehearsal, and, of course, the wedding itself.
If you decide you want more or less, we will be happy to work with you to make it happen. Whether it's an intimate gathering of friends and family or a lavish affair, we are excited, inspired, and dedicated to making your day one of a kind (in a good way).
Our process:
* We start with a free consultation to get to know each other and discuss the general framework for the event. If we are a good match for you, you can reserve the officiant with a nominal security deposit (depending on the type of ceremony you want, with the remaining balance due 30 days prior to the wedding.
* Leading up to the ceremony, our creative team will schedule additional meetings to gather details for the script or to address any questions or issues that may arise. Of course, you are welcome to reach out at any time as well.
* If you would like us to coordinate with your wedding planner or any other vendor (e.g., photographers, videographers, sound technicians, etc.), please don't hesitate to ask.
* We are available for rehearsals to make sure you are comfortable with the ceremony process and to work out any final details.
* Our ceremonies run 10-20 minutes, and the officiant is available before or after the ceremony to formally register the wedding (i.e., sign the license), take pictures, give out autographs, or perform other celebratory events.
