Officiant recommendation/fees

dsp2013

Our original officiant has had to back out due to a conflict and now FI and I are looking for another.   Anyone have recommendations for a non-denominational officiant?

Also, does anyone have an idea of average fees in Chicago?  I've contacted a few I found here on The Knot and have only heard back from one so far.  His fee sounds high, but the last person was a family friend and not charging so I have nothing to base it off of.

TIA

We used Bruce Otto from Spirited Weddings.  He was very good and great at balancing my spiritual wants for the ceremony while not making it too spiritual for H (who is not religious).

We used "Rev for Whatev". Her fees were very reasonable and she may have recommendations if she isn't available on your date.

We used Margo from Rev on the Run. We were married in November and people still compliment us on the amazing ceremony - not religious in any way by our choice (she can do religious stuff too) and very meaningful and personalized.

I know someone who spent $350, I believe it was.
