Questions couples ask
- Do you travel outside Dallas–Fort Worth?
- Yes, anywhere. My rates don’t change outside DFW; you just cover travel expenses.
- Why don’t you list packages?
- Most couples don’t fit a package exactly. After a short phone call I quote the hours and add-ons you actually need, so you aren’t paying for coverage you won’t use.
- How do we get a Texas marriage license?
- Apply in person at any Texas county clerk’s office with valid ID. There’s a 72-hour waiting period between getting the license and the ceremony, unless you qualify for a waiver.
- Can we lower the license fee or skip the 72-hour wait?
- Yes. Complete a Twogether in Texas premarital course and bring the certificate when you apply. You’ll get $60 off the license and the waiting period is waived. I recommend Merge, Watermark Church’s premarital class. It’s certified, and you don’t need to attend Watermark to take it. I’m happy to help you register and answer questions.
- Who files the marriage license after the ceremony?
- When I officiate, I complete my part and return the license to the county clerk for you.
- How do we receive our photos and films?
- Through a private gallery link. You can view everything online and download only the photos you want, at full resolution. Full ceremony films are delivered privately and never posted publicly.
- Can you officiate if we book someone else for photos?
- Yes. Officiating can be booked on its own, and the rate is lower when it’s paired with photo or film.
