Need a wedding officiant...

Pm me for a great officiant. You'll love the beachrev!

For ceremonies contact our friend David DeGregorio. He and his wife used to operate Charm Weddings and Flowers in Seaside. He got the credentials to marry folks. He is one of the nicest people you will ever meet.

I charge $100 for a simple, basic beach-style wedding (either one of my readings, or a supplied one, just basic nice shirt and pants- no suit, etc.). If I have to perform in a full ceremony then price depends on how elaborate it is. Elvis costume is depending on availability of costume and would be $500 (I would be happy to try another costume if requested).

Yes he is. You might also try Sarah Gibson, now a local, or also try John R. ;-)

In the process of planning a May wedding in Rosemary beach. The one thing not nailed down is the clergy. Anyone have a recommendation on a wedding officiant? Thanks.

The absolute best is Dr. Gil Watson from Northside United Methodist Church in ATL. If our home isn't rented, he could stay there -- hell, we'll join him. He and his wife are funn people.

Does a minister have to be state licensed?

Good question. I dunno.

Not in Florida. I are one meself. I've done one wedding and a commitment ceremony so far. And I'm cheap. Will work for beer. And $75. That includes meet and greet to go over vows, rehearsal, and the big day. PM for more info.

Don't respond to tsitranekknurd. I was finally able to get logged back in tonight, even though I was laughing so hard I could barely see to type!

Seriously though I've done the above, plus have planned and helped with numerous weddings. I've considered going into consulting, and now that I know I'm computer stoooopid, maybe I need a career change after all!:rolling:

Actually, anyone can be ordained as a minister online! This way, you can ask a friend or family member, someone close to you to get ordained and perform the ceremony. I have a friend in Nashville who did this. This isn't necessarily the site he used, and I'm not endorseing it by any means, but here is one of many that are out there:

Interesting. Someone recently told me that any Public Notary has the authority to perform a wedding ceremony.

Yes, my friend in Jax became a Notary so she could officiate the beach wedding of some close friends.

Nothing says romance like getting married by a Notary. I've heard the notary stamp on the butt hurts like hell.

:clap_1: ...I can't wait until sarafunn gets married at the beach and John R and drukkenartist officiate! Then we will have three bands...Dread, Waco and Dikki Du. The art taxi will drive her away. Smiling Joe will be the photographer, Kurt will videotape. Spidey will be the ring buoy and Princess Kate and Olivia will be the flower gulls.

:scratch: ...now, she just has to find THE MAN! 😀
