Wedding Ceremonies are special. They are special to the Bride and to the Groom. They are special for the families involved. They are special for the representation of "two becoming one" in the eyes of God.
I take your wedding very seriously. I work with you to make sure you receive exactly the kind of wedding officiating that you desire. I will travel to your location (within 20 miles of Baltimore, Maryland - farther distances are negotiable). I have performed the wedding ceremony on a boat as well as outdoors; in a church as well as a restaurant; in City Hall as well as a fishing pier.
It is YOUR special day. I will do what I can to fit right in with your plans (within reason, of course)! But the important thing, is the vows and the actual joining together of two distinct persons into Holy Wedlock. That is the part I take very seriously. I have three basic ceremonies which I have conducted over the past 20 plus years.
1. The Traditional Ceremony: This takes about 15 - 20 minutes to perform. It includes a couple of scripture readings; a Blessing over the Bride and Groom; ring ceremony (one or two rings); and optional candle ceremony or "mixing of sand" ceremony as well. This is the most popular ceremony. The standard rate for this type of ceremony is $150 and includes my attendance at a Rehearsal.
2. The "Episcopalian" Ceremony: This is a longer version of the "Traditional Ceremony." It involves the reading of Scriptures; taking of the Communion; prayers and blessings as well as the ring ceremony and lighting of candles. This ceremony takes between 35-45 minutes to perform (maybe longer depending on circumstances). The standard rate for this ceremony is $200 and includes my attendance at a Rehearsal.
3. The Civil Ceremony: This ceremony is minus all of the frills. It is designed to bring the couple officially together in front of witnesses and take the vows of marriage. This ceremony takes approximately 5 minutes to perform. The standard rate for this type of ceremony is only $75 - since there typically is not a Rehearsal required and the ceremony is so short.
I have published a book, "The Wedding Ceremony: A Handbook for Pastors and Ministers" which is available on Amazon.com. This book has become popular with new ministers in the Faith and Bible School / Seminary graduates. This book contains all three of the above listed ceremonies and is the result twenty plus years of conducting wedding ceremonies. Instead of using two or three different manuals, I consolidated the three main ceremonies into one convenient handbook.

  tamara m.  0d ago Pastor Bob did a phenomenal job officiating my wedding. I am a very intuitive person and when I met him, right away I felt at ease and after my wedding, I knew I made the right choice. My wedding started late and I was really stressed out but Pastor Bob was professional and patient which immediately calmed me down. I cannot think him enough for making my wedding one of the most beautiful moments of my life. See all reviews |

I make the ceremony "your ceremony" and not "my ceremony." Each client's needs are different and I style each ceremony to what you are looking for... |
