Officiant Cost?

Can you ladies give me an idea of how much officiants cost? We are having our ceremony and the reception at the same place. I'm just looking for a ballpark of the cost that officiants charge.

Thank you in advance!

We looked at both nondenominational and a rabbi, and the cost varied between 750-950. We decided to go with just a rabbi, and have an interfaith ceremony, infusing some filipino wedding customs, in addition to my FH's Jewish wedding traditions. I think our rabbi was about 750.

We're having an interfaith ceremony, so we needed a priest and a rabbi. Both charged $700.

I had my ceremony at my reception hall as well. We paid $450 and we were not disappointed. We got to customize our ceremony, filled out a questionnaire so he got to know us better and his words were beautiful!

Can the girls in the 500 range and below message me who your using because that's next on my to do list? How far in advance do you normally book an officiant?

Rev deb viola. We booked her a few months ago. She was under 500. Can't remember off the top of my head but it was close to it. Email her and she'll let you know if she's available on your date. That's you're first step. Pastor April is very popular too but she books up super quick. She's the one who rcommended deb to me.

I'm also with reverend deb. Most officiants I spoke to were around the $500 range I'm doing an interfaith ceremony with just her

If this helps you, many officiants I spoke with said they were already booking for the Fall of 2015.
