The Ceremonies   

As a "wedding minister", “celebrant” or "wedding officiant" in the central Georgia area, Much time is needed helping each couple plan their special day.  An outstanding wedding takes a lot of planning and coordination, whereas a 10 minute ceremony takes little. When you really think about it, your wedding should be "priceless".  Unfortunately, priceless doesn't fit the average budget.  I will tell you though, in my book, a simple ceremony performed in a home, park, or even a bowling alley is more special than one that is performed by a judge or the justice of the peace in a stuffy government office somewhere.

Weddings can last anywhere from five minutes to the better part of an hour. Needless to say preparation for a lengthy wedding takes considerably more preparation than a five minute wedding. My fee is based on the following factors: how much preparation time is required, how long the wedding service will last, how far I must travel to perform the wedding, and whether my services are required for the wedding rehearsal. My fee for an elopement wedding where the couple comes to me to be married is $125. For the average wedding, my fee is $200 for weddings in Warner Robins and $250 for weddings in Macon and surrounding areas. Any locations further from Warner Robins than Macon require a $75 travel fee. My fee for attending a rehearsal is $50.

My credentials are as follows; I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in Education with a minor in Psychology and a Master's in Biblical Counseling.  I have been an ordained minister since graduating from Bible College and I have led a variety of religious programs and ceremonies over the past 30 years.

Best wishes with your wedding plans. May the Lord, bless you and keep you.
