Congratulations on one of the most exciting moments of your life. I would be honored to be a part of your celebration. I am an ordained interfaith minister by Universal Life Church and would like to provide you with a memorable ceremony. Big or small, religious or civil, indoors or outdoors, you can have the wedding ceremony of your choice. I offer you many options for ceremonies and vows. (You can even write your own if you want to). You can add or subtract from anything you want in the ceremony. However, in order for a marriage to be legal, the wedding ceremony must include the Declaration of Intent: this is most commonly recognized as the "Do you take..." and "I do" exchange. Planning the rest of the ceremony is then left to the wedding couple and their wedding officiant. Did you know that you can have a legally binding ceremony anywhere you want in Michigan as long as you have gotten your valid marriage license in the county where one of you live. I will come to the site of your choice anywhere in the thumb area of Michigan, whether you want to be married at the beach, a park, your reception hall, on a boat or in your own home. I will be available for on-site wedding ceremonies, outdoor ceremonies, ceremonies in unusual or original places whenever and wherever you want to be married. Before your ceremony date: We can have unlimited email and phone conversations. You choose which ceremony you want and edit it however you want. On the day of your ceremony: I will come to your location approximately 30 minutes before your celebration. I will be dressed in proper attire. I usually just wear a dress or a blouse and skirt. I do have choir robes if you would rather me wear one of those. One is burgundy color. The other is white. I will perform your ceremony, assist you with your license materials, and file your license for you. You will need to bring at least 2 witnesses and your marriage license. What It Costs Package 1: Simple Ceremony A sweet and simple ceremony. You can choose your own vows, readings and other basic elements to make the ceremony reflect your own personalities. Includes phone consultation, email correspondence and a copy of your ceremony for you to keep. A rehearsal is not included, since most simple and fairly brief ceremonies do not usually necessitate a walk-through. (and it is simply more economical). If you would like a rehearsal, please see package 2. $100, plus travel fee (see below) Package 2: Ceremony and Rehearsal This will include a seperate rehearsal day at the site of your wedding and assistance with coordination of wedding ceremony procession. I recommend this for anyone who is planning a formal processional, has a wedding party that includes more than 4 people (bride, groom, best man, maid of honor) and/or if you simply want to have all the details ironed out and not have to orchestrate and coordinate the elements of the ceremony on your own. $200, plus 2 X travel fee (see below) Travel Fees I am located in Harbor Beach, MI, and all location distance/time will be calculated from there using google maps. Range Price 5-15 miles $15 16-25 miles $25 26-40 miles $40 41-60 miles $60 Holiday Weddings $75 additional fee may apply on holidays and holiday weekends. Holidays may include: New Years Eve and Day, Easter weekend, Memorial Day, Independence Day (July 4), Labor Day Weekend, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. $50 non-refundable deposit is required for booking your date. Cashier's check (NO personal checks) or money order payable to Tanya Michalski. You may pay the full cost at the time of your deposit or in increments prior to your wedding date if you prefer. The full amount is due on or before the day of your rehearsal or wedding. Please also include any fees that would be incurred for me to get to your ceremony: parking, entry fees, etc. if applicable.
