i highly recommened calling father joe, www.personalizedweddings.com. him and his wife judt are the best and will answer any questions you will have. your first meeting is a get to know each other meet in which you will decide if you want him to marry you and they get to know you so they can put together the perfect personalized ceremony for you. goodluck! ~Lacey

I JUST BOOKED REV. DEBRA VIOLA (CEREMONIES OF THE HEART). ME AND FH MET WITH HER AND REALLY LIKED HER. I ASKED TO HEAR EXAMPLE CEREMONIES (EX. CANDLE, SAND, WINE, SAND). I ASKED HER WHAT HER BACKGROUND WAS (RELIGIOUS AND PROFESSIONAL). SHE THEM ASKED ME AN FH ABOUT US. WHAT WE DID AND DIDNT WANTED INCLUDED. IF YOU WANT MORE INFO FM ME.
