How Do I Find An Officiant for My Wedding?

A commonly asked question we get from brides is “How do I find an officiant for my wedding day?”. We know that this can sometimes be a hard decision to make, especially if you do not have a go-to religious figure in your life, but we’re here to help!

Our favorite officiant choice to recommend is for you to give this honor to someone who means a lot to you and/or your fiancé! This could be a grandparent, a childhood friend, an aunt, a favorite past teacher, etc. Anyone you ask is going to be so honored that they get to do this for you! There are plenty of ways you can create your own ceremony ‘script’ with your officiant to really customize it to your perfect day and what better joy for your ceremony than to have someone close to you bring the two of you together as one.

After you choose who you will give this honor to, the next question we get asked is “How much do you pay an officiant?”. Average pricing for this would be between $150-$350. Sometimes even a really nice gift will do the trick if you don’t feel comfortable paying a family member. We hope this helps you with making your officiant decision.
