Marriage & Ceremony Questions

You're in the right place

Where do you provide wedding officiant services?

I'm a New York City registered marriage officiant and can legally solemnize marriages anywhere in New York State. Brooklyn and Manhattan are my home base, and I'm glad to travel elsewhere across the city and state — travel fees may apply based on distance, which we'll confirm together before booking.

Will you travel outside of Brooklyn or Manhattan for a ceremony?

Yes! While Brooklyn and Manhattan are my primary service area, I'm happy to officiate ceremonies anywhere across New York State. Travel fees are based on proximity to my home base, so share your desired location in the booking form and I'll let you know what to expect.

How much does a wedding officiant cost?

Pricing depends on the service you choose. License signings start at $250, elopement ceremonies for up to 10 guests are $495, and fully customized wedding ceremonies start at $895. For ceremonies outside Brooklyn or Manhattan, a travel fee based on proximity may be added. Not sure which service is right for you? Book a 30-minute consultation for $75 — the cost is credited toward any ceremony service booked within 30 days.

Do you officiate non-traditional or LGBTQIA+ ceremonies?

Absolutely! I'm fully open to officiating non-traditional, unique, and LGBTQIA+ ceremonies. Every love story deserves to be celebrated in a way that's authentic to you — whether that means a secular ceremony, blended traditions, or a format that doesn't fit the "typical" mold. Let's talk about your vision, and I'll help bring it to life.

What's the difference between a license signing and a full ceremony?

A license signing is a simple, legal-only service where I complete and file your marriage license — no ceremony script, no guests required. A full ceremony includes a personalized script, your vows, and any rituals meaningful to you, performed in front of the people you choose to include.

Can you officiate at an outdoor or landmark location, like the Brooklyn Bridge?

Absolutely! I officiate intimate I-do's and ceremonies at NYC landmarks and outdoor locations, including the Brooklyn Bridge. Just share your desired location in the booking form, and I'll confirm details — including any travel considerations if it's outside Brooklyn or Manhattan.
