Lyssabeth's Wedding Officiant Services

Officiating Services and Products

We offer officiating services for weddings, vow renewals and commitment ceremonies as small as 2-person elopements and as large as they get!
In addition we offer a Write Your Own Ceremony E-Kit
as well as officiant coaching for the amateur wedding officiant.

Our mission is to offer every couple a ceremony level that fits their desires, personal beliefs and budget. No matter what you're envisioning your ceremony to be, we have a service or product that will allow you to have what you want at a reasonable price. And if we don't--then we'll create one just for you!
Our services and products fall into three general categories:

Noncustomized Services: Elopement and Basic Ceremonies. For budget-conscious couples seeking a professional wedding officiant to perform a pre-written, short & sweet service--whether for two or 200.

Customized Services
Classic
and Premium Custom Ceremonies. For couples who want to develop a personal relationship with their wedding officiant while co-creating a unique and memorable wedding ceremony.

DIY Products
Write Your Own Ceremony E-kit
and one-on-one consultations. For hands-on couples who want to do it themselves, this is a fun and inexpensive option.

A Word About Pricing

We are truly committed to serving couples of ALL budget levels. Subsequently, our prices range from under $20 (for our Do-It-Yourself Wedding Ceremony E-Kit) to over $600 (for our pull-out-all-the-stops Premium Custom Ceremony)

Yes, that's quite a large range! It's difficult to quote a price without knowing the full scope of your circumstances: your officiant preferences, amount of customizing you want in the ceremony, if you want us to facilitate your rehearsal, the simplicity/complexity of your service, whether you want to meet with your officiant in person (or if telephone consults will suffice), your ceremony location etc. We've found the best way to give couples an accurate and firm quote is to chat briefly about these variables.

We encourage couples to establish a realistic budget for all of their wedding vendors
. We also acknowledge and respect that each couple will want to prioritize their spending differently for various parts of their wedding day. To that end, we offer a variety of officiating services and products so that every couple may have the ceremony they seek at a price that is both affordable for them and compensates our wedding officiants fairly for their expertise, experience, time, energy, creativity and professionalism.

And if your wishes fall in between the above levels, then we'll quote you a price that is in between the aforementioned pricing. Our goal is to give you everything you want, without asking you to pay for the things that you don't.

Please give us a call at 720-259-1670 In less than five minutes, we can ask the right questions to help you determine the best ceremony level for you and quote you a firm price.

Write Your Own Ceremony E-Kit...a DIY option

Do you know someone that you think would be perfect for performing your ceremony? Many states allow a lay person to obtain either a one-day certificate or an online ordination in order to legally perform a ceremony. This allows couples to create a totally unique script AND have it performed by someone close to them.


But where to start? The choices can be overwhelming and hard to locate. To make the write-your-own-ceremony process easy and fun, we've put together our exclusive Write Your Own Ceremony E-kit. It includes all of the ceremony components and wording options used by Lyssabeth's Wedding Officiants. All of the resources you need to put together your own customized ceremony, along with step by step instructions will be at your fingertips for a fraction of the cost of a professional wedding officiant.


Also included are tips for the nonprofessional officiant, 10 sample ceremonies, a list of "could go wrong" situations and tips on how to avoid and handle them, and a free phone consultation to assist with any rough spots you may encounter along the way.


Click here for details and to order. (You'll be able to access the e-kit immediately.)
