Whatever works best for your timeline. If you're doing a first look and have a full photo schedule after the ceremony, we can sign before the wedding. Otherwise we meet you right after the ceremony in the bridal suite or another private spot, which also gives you a minute to breathe and maybe enjoy a glass of champagne. We fill out the license ahead of time, so all that's left is three signatures.

No. The license you return to the Clerk's office does not need witness signatures in Indiana. Some counties include a decorative keepsake certificate with a spot for witnesses, but that one is optional.

Most Clerk's offices give you a self-addressed envelope so you can mail it back. You can also drop it off in person at the same county office where you applied. Anyone can return it for you. Only the pickup requires both of you.

No. This is your wedding, and there is no right or wrong way to do it. We perform ceremonies with no mention of religion, with a light touch, and with simple non-denominational prayers.

Of course. Please email it to us one week before the wedding so we can read it several times and get comfortable with it. We want your ceremony to sound natural, not read from a page.

Your personal vows should come from the two of you, so we won't write them for you, but we're happy to help you get started. Your custom ceremony script is a different story. We write that with you, and it's included in every service.

Not at all. Plenty of couples prefer a simple "I do." Another option is to write personal vows and share them privately during a first look, or have someone hand-deliver them before the ceremony.

No. If you have ring tattoos or just prefer to skip rings, a unity ceremony is a lovely replacement. See our unity ceremony ideas.

Sand, rose, ribbon, hand fasting, a wine box and many more. We'll walk you through the options, and there is never an extra charge for adding more than one.

Yes, and we love it. Dogs, cats and even horses have joined us at the altar.

No. It's completely up to you.

Yes. Our officiants lead a smooth rehearsal and cover every detail, from who walks the mothers and grandparents down the aisle to who holds the rings, plus flower girls and ring bearers.

Absolutely. We hold rehearsals at restaurants, backyards and parks all the time. If you can't use your venue the day before, we can also do a day-of rehearsal a few hours before the ceremony.

We dress professionally, because we're in your photos too. Our men wear a dark suit, white shirt, tie and dress shoes. Our women wear a dress, a pant suit or a suit with a jacket.

Every single time. That moment is all yours.

We appreciate the offer, but we usually don't stay for dinner, so there's no need to save us a seat.

You're covered. We have a full team of experienced officiants ready to step in, and in 14 years we have never missed a wedding.

Venmo, Zelle, Cash App, Apple Pay, personal check and cash. A deposit reserves your date, and every couple receives a contract at our first meeting.

No. The price we quote is the price you pay. If your ceremony or rehearsal moves much farther away after the contract is signed, a travel fee may apply, so please let us know about any changes as soon as you can.

In most cases, yes. Let us know who you'd like and we'll check their calendar.

Yes. Just ask, and we'll share the photographers, florists, DJs and other pros we trust. If you're still searching for a venue, take a look at our venue partners.

Never. We do not sell, share or pass along your information.

What secret? Your privacy is always safe with us.
