About Our Fees:


The majority of work is done prior to your ceremony. A great deal of our time is dedicated to discussing your ideas, dreams, and needs for your very special day. We research, draft, and revise the perfect readings, and design rituals and ceremonies that fit your unique vision.

Fees are determined by these factors, along with travel.

Our goal is not only to meet, but exceed your expectations, regardless of your budget. Let's discuss what you need and what we can do for you.

In Person Consultations


Consultation fees are based on time and travel. In Monmouth and Ocean Counties, the travel fee is $15.00.

For Mercer, Middlesex, and Burlington, the travel fee is $22.00

For all other counties EXCEPT Cape May, Cumberland, Salem, Sussex and Warren, the travel fee is $29.00.

For Cape May, Cumberland, Salem, Sussex and Warren Counties, the travel fee is $36.00.

For the consultation itself, the fee is $20.00 per hour, billed up to the nearest hour.

Full Service Rehearsals

All ceremonies include rehearsals-by-phone, as well as a quick run-through approximately 15 minutes before the ceremony. However for those who wish to have a more extensive rehearsal, we can accommodate you!

Full Service Rehearsals are available to you when performed on any day before the actual ceremony date for $100 plus travel expenses. Please be sure to ask for this service when you book to ensure availability.
