Your Wedding Ceremony - with Lauren as Officiant

Small and Sweet

This semi-customized ceremony for small weddings, vow renewals or commitment ceremonies offers your choice of elements from several pre-written wedding ceremonies. 

The service lasts approximately 10-15 minutes.  This option is suitable for couples who want something meaningful yet informal but do not want the rushed and impersonal city hall environment. It can often be arranged on very short notice and is intended for small weddings of around 10 guests or fewer. 

Ceremony Includes:
  • Phone and email consultation including short questionnaire for both members of the couple
  • Pre-written civil or non-denominational ceremony customized for you in a casual setting (no wedding party, processional, etc.)
  • Arrival 15 to 30 minutes prior to ceremony
  • Filing of marriage license

Pricing for the Small and Sweet Ceremony starts at $300 and depends on the location, day of the week, number of guests and any customizing of the ceremony that you might want. 

Personally Yours

 The Personally Yours Ceremony will result in a one of kind wedding ceremony that we will write together.  Along with all of the usual elements of the wedding ceremony (personalized for you) it may include your story as a couple or any other elements (readings, traditions, etc.) that you choose.  

We will first meet in person to explore what you are hoping for and begin to put shape on the ceremony of your dreams.  Later, we’ll work closely over email and phone calls to create your ceremony text.    

Ceremony includes:
  • Getting to know you meeting.
  • Telephone and email consultations
  • Individually-written ceremony
  • Arrival 45 minutes prior to ceremony for pre-ceremony coordination
  • Filing of marriage license

Pricing for the Personally Yours Ceremony starts at $600 and depends on ceremony location, day of the week, and if you would like a second meeting and/or rehearsal.
