Help need wedding officiant

We are getting married November 7th 2010 at the Bethwood in Totowa, NJ.  We still don't have anyone to marry us.  Can anyone recommend someone who isn't too expensive.  Thanks in advance.

    We used a nondenominational minister who we adored! We got so many compliments on our ceremony! He was cheaper than anyone else we met with too....

    Thanks.  Was hoping not to pay more than $500.  Does that sound possible based on what you have paid?

    We're using Jessie Blum of Eclectic Unions and I think we're paying $500 (extra fee for rehearsal)

    Thanks that helps me a lot as I was looking on line and saw some that were between $600 and $800 and that seemed like a lot.   We are actually hoping the Mayor of Wayne can do it but his secretary thought he might be away that day.  We are waiting to hear back but as you can imagine I'm a little anxious.

    Hello, 
     I am an officiant in Northen NJ, (I am right around the corner from the Bethwood, acutally, and I've officiated there many times.)  I'd love to speak to you about your wedding

    Bishop George Lucey - $400 I believe, but it's only a suggested amount... he made it very clear to us that we should only donate what we're capable of at this time in our lives.
