CHECK!!! Ceremony location booked

Yay us! We booked St. Andrews Hall on Wayne State's Campus for the ceremony and I'm pumped to have it knocked off the list! It was keeping me up at night, because I'm a ridiculous worry wart.

Now all I need is an officiant...I know there was a post about them not long ago, but I don't think any prices were listed.  Can anyone tell me how much they usually cost?

    Congrats!  I am using Reverand Carl Vogler, info in my bio.  Total cost was $325 which includes an initial meeting, rehersal dinner, and the actual ceremony.  He was the officiant at my sisters wedding in August 2009 and I thought he did a great job so I booked him right away.

    Congrats!  Thats a big step!  My officiant was $350...her info is in my bio.  From what I've seen they are usually $250-500 depending on what you are looking for.  GL!

    I second Rev Carl.  I just booked him (thanks Jholbel) for my date and he is very personable, down to earth, and he has a nice deep loud speaking voice :)

    Check out Reverend Fred Jolicouer. He is around $400 maybe. Here is his e-mail address: wearegathered@gmail.com

    Tell him Corinne sent you :)

    Glad you ended up at St Andrew's! I think you made a wise choice. Are you having the reception there too?

    I got a list of officiants from our venue, and there is a Catholic Deacon listed, Don Devine who does a Catholic rite (obviously without the mass) 248-356-2961.

    Rev Curt Roelofs (Christian, Protestant, Presbyterian) 248-765-6978.

    Can't recommend them, but they've officiated at my venue previously.

    Why not ask Wayne State who their ministers/officiants are? I believe they have them available for religious events on campus.
