As
a Chicago wedding minister, I work for everyone- every
culture, every age, every religion, in every setting.
The photos throughout this website are a small fraction
of the couples I have worked for. But they are indicative
of the clientele who retain my services. Their ceremonies
took place in locations such as their homes or at venues
like country clubs, mansions, houses of worship, park
gazebos or elaborate banquet facilities. In all cases
the ceremonies I performed for them honored the relationship
of marriage as well as celebrated the couples' desire
to share their lives.
But what determines how
a couple chooses their officiant? I find that most couples
who contact me belong to one of two groups.

Those
of the first group already have an appreciation of what a professional
wedding minister brings them- the know how, the experience and
the directorship skills to make their ceremony outstanding.
They also understand the consequences of making the wrong choice
in a wedding minister. When these couples call my office, their
questioning often begins with.."What will your services
and ceremony do for us?" On the other hand, price oriented
couples do little homework, typically hiring the first officiant
referred to them who meets their budget. They mistakenly reason
that: "Since all wedding ceremonies are the same why not
find the cheapest?"
My approach is to educate couples- giving
them a complete understanding of everything I do in a wedding
ceremony and the reasoning behind it. The thoroughness of
this website and a video presentation rich with novel and
effective examples helps my couples to make informed decisions
on hiring me. This openness rewards me with clients of similar
values and expectations- couples who are a joy to work for.
These couples are the clienteles I seek.
