Lori Hardham

I welcome all couples, regardless of sex, color, race, or religion, that want to be united in marriage in any state within the continental United States. Whether your ceremony is simple or elegant, traditional or contemporary, I will make it a truly magical and memorable event.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT:

Step 1. Contact me by phone, text, or email.

Step 2. Once we confirm my availability for your wedding date, we’ll arrange an introductory meeting - in person, by phone, or over video.

Step 3. After we meet, you and your fiancée can talk it over. If you decide you'd like me to officiate your wedding, call, text, or email me to confirm. I'll put a temporary hold on your date and send you a wedding contract to sign and return along with a $75 deposit.

Step 4. I will send you and your fiancée 5 questions designed to help me get to know you and to personalize your special day. You'll give me the names and email addresses of 2-3 of your closest friends and family members that I can contact to learn more about you and what they think makes you a special couple.

Step 5. I'll design a custom ceremony that will honor your love story and bring laughter and romance to your occasion. I'll share the core outline (or script) with you using GoogleDocs or a Word Doc. You can make any changes you may have and share the outline/script with your wedding planner.

Step 6. I will attend the rehearsal to ensure your big day goes off without a hitch.

Step 7. I will arrive 45 min. before your wedding ceremony is set to begin to ensure everyone and everything is ready, and that the wedding begins on time.

Step 8. After the ceremony, I will sign your marriage certificate and go over the instructions for filing your certificate with your local courthouse.

Step 9. You will go off to enjoy your special day and the rest of your lives together!
