Wedding Day + Rehearsal
Total: $500 (requires a $250 deposit)
Our most comprehensive option, including ceremony and rehearsal support for couples who want added guidance and peace of mind.
Your ceremony is the one part of the wedding where everyone is watching and where there is no room for confusion. This package is for couples who want to walk into their wedding day feeling prepared, confident, and completely at ease.
When you choose us, you are not just hiring someone to stand at the altar. You are choosing an officiant who will guide the process, lead the room, and make sure your ceremony feels natural from start to finish.
We take the guesswork out of the ceremony so you do not have to worry about what happens next, where people stand, or how everything flows. That clarity begins at the rehearsal and carries through the wedding day.
Why the Rehearsal Matters
Most couples do not realize how many questions exist until they are standing in the ceremony space together. The rehearsal is where those questions disappear. This is where your wedding party learns exactly when to walk and where to stand. It is where timing becomes clear for photographers and musicians. It is where nerves settle, and confidence takes over. By the time the wedding day arrives, everyone already knows what to do, which allows the ceremony to feel smooth and unforced. The rehearsal is not about perfection. It is about removing uncertainty so the focus stays on your marriage, not logistics.
What’s Included in the Wedding Day + Rehearsal Package
We begin by getting to know you through relaxed conversations that focus on your story, your values, and the tone you want for your ceremony. From there, we craft a ceremony that reflects you and fits your day without feeling rushed or overly long. Communication is never limited. Questions come up. Ideas change. We stay available and adjust as needed so nothing feels unfinished or uncertain. During rehearsal, we walk everyone through the ceremony step by step until it feels comfortable and natural. On the wedding day, your officiant arrives early, connects with your vendors, and leads the ceremony with a calm and confident presence. Afterward, we handle the marriage license filing so you don't have to worry about paperwork.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the rehearsal?
Most rehearsals take about 45 to 60 minutes. That gives us enough time to walk through the entire ceremony, answer questions, and repeat anything that needs clarity so everyone leaves feeling confident.
Do you work with our planner or venue?
Yes. We coordinate directly with your planner, photographer, DJ, and venue staff to make sure timing and transitions flow naturally. Our goal is to support the larger team, so the ceremony feels organized and unhurried.
What if our rehearsal is not the day before the wedding?
That is completely fine. Rehearsals are often held a few days before the wedding, depending on schedules and venue availability. We will find a time that works best for everyone involved.
Can we still write our own vows?
Absolutely. Many couples choose to write personal vows, and we are happy to help with structure, examples, or wording if needed. If you prefer to keep vows private, we can also guide you through that option.
What happens if we have last-minute changes?
Changes are normal. With unlimited communication, adjustments can be made right up until the ceremony. We are used to working through last-minute updates and keeping everything on track.
