A scan throughout this 80+ page website should easily convey the fact that we're really serious about what we do and what we can bring to couples in the planning and execution of their wedding ceremony. That's why we freely share so much of our experience and perspectives here. We want you to try and reach a higher level of satisfaction in what you can achieve with your ceremony.

We can make an exceptional difference to your ceremony, one that will linger on in the memories of families and guests for years to come. We know how to blend tradition with refreshing innovation so that your ceremony will the one that stands out for its creativity and its ability to capture your unique personalities.

Equally important is the calmness and poise which we will also bring to you and your bridal party at what always seems to be such a stressful time. We will ensure that you are fully prepared and carry out your roles with confidence and distinction.

Perhaps the most lasting impact we are going to have on your ceremony is the way in which we will enable all of your photographers, videographers, and musicians to achieve even higher standards of excellence in their service to you by presenting them with orchestrated opportunies to showcase you and capture those precious moments. Just picture how much more stunning your photography will be for years to come if they're ready to catch you at your very best.

We invite you to actively research other officiants in the Ottawa and GTA areas to see what they can do for you. While most officiants are genuinely nice people, many don't even have a website of their own, nor do they try to educate you about their style, services or backgrounds. A few have simply a one page site that really tells you very little about what you can expect. Most may do 10 - 20 ceremonies per year which are slight variations of one another while others perform 4 -5 ceremonies per day and always seem to be in a rush to be off to the next one. You could spend several days trying to find the right officiant for you or you could save your time for better uses and simply call us.

The going rate for officants in the Ottawa and GTA areas is extremely consistent regardless of whom you contact. Even bland, sterile assembly line ceremonies held by city hall staff can cost you more than our unique personalized ceremonies which take place where and when you want. Our value proposition to you is that for about the same cost of a few extra bottles of banquet wine, you can take all the risk and uncertainty out of your planning and be assured that you and your guests will have the best experience possible. Think about how your guests are going to remember your ceremony; as the one that's exceptional or as one where they know you obviously did it on the cheap?

Should budgetary limitations really necessistate that you nonetheless choose to engage the lowest rate wedding officiant you can find, hopefully some of the ideas and options that you are exposed to here will find their way into your ceremony. And for that, you will have just helped raise the qualitative level of wedding ceremonies a bit higher. But if you're truly honest with yourself in examining the range of fees that you're prepared to consider from your other service vendors, your investment in being able to be assured of an exceptional ceremony is really peanuts compared to what you will pay handsomely for from virtually every other service provider you use for your wedding, qualitative or otherwise!

And if you're still not convinced, remember that we will also point out to you where you will save another $70 over the cost of an Ontario marriage license acquired in Ottawa or Toronto. While all of this would easily be a no-brainer for Oprah or Dr. Phil, even a Homer Simpson could likely figure it out right. Call us at  613-831-7555. Sooner than later!
