Where do you perform weddings?
We perform weddings throughout the 5 boroughs of New York City. We also travel to Long Island, Upstate New York, and New Jersey for an additional fee.
What does your Officiating Package include?
Pricing includes the drafting and creation of the ceremony, performing the wedding ceremony, and the signing of the marriage license. We provide plenty of ceremony materials and consultation in order to make sure your ceremony meets the needs and vision of our couples on their special day.
Are wedding rehearsals included? (for officiating services)
We are typically only present for the day of the wedding, although we do arrive 30-45 minutes beforehand to go over logistics and say hello before the wedding! We do offer wedding rehearsals for an additional fee, as we would be reserving a time that is typically booked with another wedding party.
How long is the average ceremony?
On average, our ceremonies are typically between 10-15 minutes, which is the sweet spot, in our opinion. For larger weddings, or ceremonies that include a few readings or unity ceremonies, it can be as long as 20 minutes. We do not recommend a ceremony over 20 minutes.
Do you offer marriage license signings?
Yes! We offer express, “no frills” signings of the marriage license starting at $250+, depending on timing and location. You must have at least one witness present to sign (this can also be your photographer, if you like).
How do you get to know the couple? Do you offer in person meetings?
We are happy to setup a virtual consultation before or after booking to answer any questions you may have! We also send out a questionnaire to get to know your story a bit more—that being said, we are incredibly respectful of boundaries, and are comfortable with whatever parts of your story you’d like to share. We are also happy to share about us, as well!
Do you offer ceremonies in Spanish?
Absolutely! Andrea, our head officiant and founder, is a native speaker and fluent in Spanish and English.
Are you LGBTQIA2S+ friendly?
Love is Love. Absolutely. We strive to be champions for love, in all its beautiful, multi-faceted forms!
What if we need to cancel?
We are happy to reschedule or postpone if there is an emergency, but we unfortunately do not offer refunds on deposits. Please make sure to read through our contract and policies before booking.
What if our officiant becomes unavailable or has an emergency?
In the very rare case that a member of our team becomes unavailable or has an emergency, we will always have a back up member on hand to assist. We have a large network of officiants in NYC who can lend a helping hand!
Can our friend marry us?
Yes! Please inquire for more details. We can also provide consultations and ceremony materials to assist your friend for a fee.
Are you offering in-person weddings during COVID-19?
Yes! However, due to the current health regulations and guidance from the CDC, we are adhering to and strongly encourage enforcement of all guidelines regarding masking and social distancing for the safety of all guests and our officiants. We also require that guest count be communicated as transparently as possible.
Do you perform last minute weddings or elopements?
We do! As long as you have at least one witness and your marriage license beforehand, let’s find a date and time that works :)
Do you offer witnesses?
We definitely can, for an additional fee. If we’re looking to keep your ceremony as private as possible, we are happy to be discreet and assist.
