Wedding Officiants

So the wedding officiant is one of the things i have looked into the least, Probably not a good idea since they are pretty important for our wedding but im stuck!  Was hoping i could look to you ladies for any reccomendations of people you have used, are using, or have seen perform a wedding in the area.  I just dont know where to start with this vendor, i feel its kind of awkward.  Also how much do officiants normally run in NJ?  Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is one bendor I would love to knock of my check list.

  • Father John Michael OSullivan was around $600
  • LOVE LOVE LOVE Mitch the Minister.

    www.mitchtheminister.com

    He was just on TLC's "Four Weddings" on December 30th.

    He's affordable too; was under $500 when we booked him a few months ago.
  • I'm using Rev Richard Cash - he's great! His website is www.ministerrfcash.com

    He's charging us $475 and I did find a few more in that price range but nothing below...

    You should probably list what type of officiant your looking for..are you looking for interfaith? Rabbi? Minister? Etc.
  • We are use Reverend John Graf.  He performs several fatih ceremonies and is a pleasure to work with.  We are paying $500

  • GiGi-i looked into mitch, he seemed so great! unfortunately he was already booked for our date :(..

    sgdc- prob a good point, i guess just a minister, it is not a religious ceremony at all so we just need someone to do a basic ceremony very short and to the point

    Thanks for all the suggestions ladies!
