About this vendor
I am an ordained non-denominational christian minister, officiating wedding ceremonies and vow renewals in Southwest Florida. I was ordained in 2014 and moved here from the Atlanta, GA area in 2016. Summer 2017, my business really took off and I have been quite busy ever since. Once you decide to hire me, we will plan a complimentary session to talk about everything that goes into making your wedding special. I have many ideas for you to select from to get started creating the ceremony that you have always dreamed about. I don't charge for emails or phone calls, so if you have questions, just let me know. My fees are pretty much dependent on the location of the ceremony and how far I have to travel. I promise, you will NOT be disappointed.
