Important Questions to Ask Your Wedding Officiant Before You Book The Wedding

  1. Are you registered to perform weddings in my location?

  2. How long have you  officiated weddings?

  3. About how many weddings you do per year?

  4. What training have you had?

  5. Will you go to my location to do a ceremony?

  6. What type of ceremonies will you perform?

  7. What are your rules as to photography ?

  8. Is  pre-marital counseling required?

  9. Do you have ceremony samples?

  10. What are the fees charged?

  CAUTION: Some web based "officiants" are in fact not registered in your area but are web based referral agencies that seek a fee from officiants to receive a referral.  Ask your officiant if they are a referral group or in fact an officiant registered in your city or town. Be sure to know who and what you are dealing with. Try to select an officiant actually registered and performing ceremonies in your local area not a referral group who charges referral fees.

  If it is possible see if you can see the officiant in action at another wedding. Be sure to contact an officiant in time before booking a rental hall or location so you are sure you have a professional officiant for your ceremony.
