05 / Good to know

A few questions?

From the first hello to the marriage license, here are answers to a few things couples often ask.

The details

Let's talk it through.

Don't see your question here? I'd love to hear it. Our first conversation is complimentary.

How far in advance should we book?

+

Most couples book 6–12 months in advance, but shorter timelines are sometimes possible. If you have a date in mind, reach out and I'll check availability.

Do you travel for weddings?

+

Absolutely. I serve Chicago and the surrounding suburbs, and I'm open to destination celebrations, too. Let's talk about your location.

Can we include our own traditions or readings?

+

Of course. Your ceremony should reflect you. We can weave in religious, spiritual, cultural, interfaith, or family traditions, as well as readings and personal vows.

Will you help with our marriage license?

+

Yes. I'll guide you through what you need to know about obtaining your license and the signing and filing process. Requirements depend on where your ceremony takes place.

Do you offer a rehearsal?

+

Yes. We can walk through the ceremony together so everyone knows where to be and you can feel fully present on the day. Ask about rehearsal details when you inquire.

What can we add to our ceremony package?

+

Optional enhancements include rehearsal attendance, custom vow assistance, additional planning meetings, extended travel, personalized rituals, last-minute bookings when available, and a ceremony script keepsake.

What if we're not sure what we want yet?

+

That's completely normal. Our first conversation is a chance to explore the tone, traditions, and moments that feel right to you. You don't have to arrive with all the answers.

Do you officiate LGBTQ+ and interfaith weddings?

+

Absolutely. Every couple deserves a ceremony that honors who they are. We'll make space for your identities, beliefs, families, and chosen traditions.

Still figuring it out?

You don't need all the answers.

Most couples don't arrive with a finished ceremony in mind. That's the point of working together. We'll find the words, moments, and rhythm that fit your day.

Before you write

You can start anywhere.

You don't need a finished plan to get in touch. If you're dreaming, these are a few things we can talk through together.

A date or season in mind
A place that feels like us
The people we want close
The mood we want to remember

It's perfectly fine if none of these are settled yet.

Your day, your way

Let's make a moment you'll always feel.
