FAQS

How will I know my marriage is official?

Once your ceremony is complete, our officiant will electronically file your marriage within one to two business days. You will then be able to see your temporary marriage certificate online. Then, within 60 – 120 days, you will receive your certified copy of your marriage certificate in the mail. If you need copies quicker than this, this can be arranged for an additional fee. Please note that the marriage license is a separate charge from the officiant fee.

Are witnesses necessary?

No, it can be just an intimate ceremony with just the two of you and the officiant.

Can we incorporate our own vows into the ceremonies?

Yes, these officiants are flexible. Please communicate this with your officiant in advance for a smooth ceremony.

Are rehearsals included in the fees?

No, rehearsals are a separate fee.

Can you get married on the beach?

Yes and no. You may get married on certain beaches with a permit through the Department of Land and Natural Resources which you can get yourself or your officiant can secure for you for an additional fee. If it’s your wish to get married on the beach, please consult with your officiant on the best locations.

Can you get your license on weekends and holidays?

Yes, certain licensed agents work out of their homes. For more information, visit: https://health.hawaii.gov/vitalrecords/marriage-licenses/license-agents/

What is the process to work with you?

First, you can look at the bios and videos for each officiant and decide who would be the best fit for you as a couple.

Next, if you feel like you still need a bit more and would like a phone, Zoom/Skype/FaceTime meeting in advance to make sure they are the right fit, please email us to schedule that.

Then, book your officiant online for the date and time, and also please select the general location. You can fill out the details when checking out.

Once you have paid, we will send a confirmation email connecting you with your selected officiant, as well as an outline of their ceremony. From there, you will work together to customize your ceremony for your day.

Will your rates increase in 2022?

Yes, all rates we are anticipating an increase of at least $50 per service for each officiant.
