Hi, ladies-

What's the going rate for officiants?  I saw this fellow, Rev Patrick O'Leary, at the bridal show on Sunday. Has anyone used him or know anything of him?

Wasn't sure if his price was in the ballpark of the "norm"...

Thanks!!

    i think we paid something like $225 or $250, which included the additional fee to have him do the rehearsal. i didn't shop around though. we used a simple vow, fwiw.

    Ditto on Jrsygrl. We are also using A Simple Vow, and it is $250. Their Web site has a lot of info.

    The only item I will not compromise on...my bouquet of all purple tulips wrapped in a swatch from my Mom's wedding dress.

    Lucky girls--I checked him out shortly after we got engaged, but he's already booked for my date :-(

    O'leary's price is a good bit higher than A Simple Vows. Maybe I can get him down a bit...

    Thanks for quick responses! Appreciate your help!
