Services

Ceremony and license-handling 

  • I specialize in creating simple & touching non-religious ceremonies, tailored to my couple's preferences. We’ll partner up to select and curate the perfect vows for your ceremony. 
  • I'll be there to officiate with warmth and joy on your big day. We will celebrate your marriage with a touching and unforgettable ceremony filled with love!
  • I'll be your resource for the information you need to easily obtain your South Carolina or North Carolina marriage license prior to your wedding (whether you live in-state or not). Once signed, I will file it with the appropriate county probate court after your ceremony.
  • Whenever you need guidance and support, whether it's questions about obtaining your license or any concerns about the ceremony-planning process, I offer unlimited consultations. Call, text or email me anytime, and I'll respond quickly with the information you need.
  • I am here for you, even after the ceremony! I will answer any remaining questions regarding follow-up on your certified marriage license. I will provide you with the necessary resources so name changes can be processed quickly and easily.

Ceremony only (no license handling) Ideal for vow renewals, or other unique circumstances. Services are the same as above, minus the handling of the license.

Rehearsal (additional charge added to ceremony) We will discuss/determine whether your ceremony will have a rehearsal booked. Since not every ceremony has a rehearsal, this is an added-on booking as needed.

Sign & wed:  Appropriate for couples who are not currently planning a ceremony, but would like to be legally married as soon as possible. I will meet you at your home, your office, or another mutually arranged location, to execute the signing of your marriage license. I will pronounce you married, and I will return your signed license to the county probate court per the requirements of SC state law. (Contact me for available dates and details!)

*For any locations further than 30 miles from Myrtle Beach: Mileage charges will be added for travel to locations/venues exceeding a 30-mile radius of Myrtle Beach.

There is a surcharge added for holiday weddings (Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, New Year’s Day, Easter, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving).
