FAQ's

Please reach us at Thelma@invitationtoawedding.com if you cannot find an

answer to your question.

Will we meet with you before the wedding?

Yes, of course. I love to meet my couples in person and get to know them before their wedding ceremony. If you are local, I can set up an appointment that is convenient for you to meet in person. If you are out of state or out of the country, we can set up a meeting via Zoom, email, or phone.

What are your fees?

Wedding officiant services begin at $300 for a short elopement ceremony for the bride and groom, with up to two guests. Services may be customized to meet your unique needs as your Wedding Officiant in Orlando, Florida.

To receive detailed information regarding your wedding day, you are invited to contact Minister Thelma Brathwaite for a complimentary consultation. As every wedding is unique, officiant fees vary based on several factors, including the elements of your ceremony, time dedicated to ceremony preparation and writing, travel to the venue, location, attendance at the wedding rehearsal, and other related services.

In order to provide an accurate quote, specific details are required, such as your wedding date (subject to availability), time, venue, and location.

We pour our hearts, experience, and expertise into every ceremony, ensuring your wedding is thoughtfully crafted and truly memorable.

Please call for additional information regarding our Wedding Day Management Service (additional fee applies).

Is a retainer required?

Yes. The retainer holds and confirms your date (no retainer, you are on a waitlist) and time of your wedding. This allows me to begin preparing your wedding ceremony once the retainer is received and a contract is signed. You will always receive a draft and timeline of your wedding and updates. We will have meetings via phone and in person in between, leading up to your Wedding day. Final approval from you is required for your Wedding ceremony.
