What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a Washington, DC wedding officiant?
My ceremonies would be special because I would make sure to urge Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit to be present in the place. I pray with the couple separately before the wedding. The couple counseling would require at least 3-6 weeks before the wedding. With all the weddings I will perform will receive my personal touch.
Are there particular areas near you where you prefer to travel or have special experience?
Yes, I am willing to travel, but the wedding must include accommodation for the minister. I am flexible on travel.
