Like anything else, the price of a wedding officiant can range considerably, so here are 4 reasons why couples like you choose Love & Wisdom for their ceremony.

1. IT’S ALL IN THE DETAILS

We take great pride and pleasure in creating a remarkable experience for our clients, and our reviews reflect that. Our prices are based on what it takes to provide a top-quality, highly personalized, professional service, from the time you book until the marriage license is signed, sealed, and delivered.

“We so appreciate their attention to detail and you really feel like they care about you and your partner throughout the entire planning process and during your ceremony!” ~ Jen B.

Most people don’t realize how much time and attention goes into all the preparations on our end prior to the big day. And your officiant isn’t the only one making sure everything runs smoothly. Our Happiness Ninjaneers and Founder are all working together with your officiant to ensure that no details are overlooked and your wedding day is a huge success. 

2. IT’S CUSTOM TAILORED

Our Total Package includes a fully customized ceremony from a highly qualified wedding officiant, who has completed our Stellar Officiant Training program. Your officiant will also be at your rehearsal the day before the wedding to make sure everything runs smoothly. The package includes our Premarital Essentials Program, marriage license guidance and filing, and plenty of support from our team the whole way through. 

“It was so worth the time and energy to invest in a custom ceremony and Love and Wisdom guided us so well throughout the process.” ~ Kimberly H.

Whether you request a 10-minute or 30-minute ceremony, and whether the wedding has 2 guests or 200, the same amount of care and effort goes into personalizing it. Our officiants invest a lot of time and a whole lotta love crafting every single ceremony so you’ll be 100% satisfied with the end result. 

3. IT’S A NEW ERA 

Here’s something that may surprise you: Professional Wedding Officiant services are a relatively new thing. The traditional model was based on a family minister who didn’t charge much, because the couple was already paying 10% of their salary to be members of the church. The minister would also use the same standard ceremony script for every wedding, which reduced the amount of work involved quite a bit.

“Our officiant wrote a beautiful ceremony for us and had a very calming and professional demeanor.” ~ Carrie P.

Well, we’ve come a long way baby!! Weddings have changed considerably over the last few decades, however, we totally understand when couples ask us why our services cost more than what they expected. Professional wedding officiant companies like us have to cover the costs of doing business. At the risk of boring you, these things include: business licensing, taxes, liability insurance, admin staff, accounting, advertising, software subscriptions, web development, payment processing fees, etc. And let us not forget, our wedding officiants are highly trained, real professionals, who LOVE what they do!

4. IT’S NOT FOR EVERYONE

We understand that we’re not the right fit for everyone. Just like any other product or service, the market has created a wide range of offerings to meet every need and desire.

We have made a choice to serve couples who feel that the marriage ceremony creates the most magical part of their wedding day, and who expect only the best.

“These guys are top notch wedding professionals – they were very organized and responsive.” ~ Ilinca R

So when you choose Love & Wisdom, you’re getting what you pay for: a high-end professional service where we make things easy and convenient, and bring passion and attention-to-detail to your wedding day experience. We meet you at an intersection of true personal connection and expertly executed professional service, and again, that’s what shines through in our reviews.
