Hello fellow knotties!
Our officiant is a work acquaintance (I work at a church-affiliated school; he pastors for the church) and his wife is a coworker of mine. We are over the moon that he will be conducting our ceremony, but he doesn't charge any fee.
The church simply encourages us to give him an offer of thanks. We have to ask, what is the average cost for an ordained officiant, and what should we give?? We are totally clueless! Any and all ideas are appreciated. (=
