Important Please Read:
It is extremely, important that all guests arrive on time so that the ceremony can begin on the designated time made by the couple and the J.P. While it is normal for ceremonies to start a few minutes behind for one reason or another, any additional time after that is going to prove to be costly to the couple getting married.
This could mean additional cost for the reception hall having to pay their catering services /employee salaries for overtime, the limousine driver, the officiant, photographer, DJ, etc.
Although I have never charged for additional time, it is becoming more of a timing problem for me as an officiant when wedding ceremonies do not start on time. I often conduct two sometimes three ceremonies in one day, so I schedule them with enough travel time, as well as enough time to get to each ceremony early enough in the event that I am needed for any last minute changes.
I know that you would never want me to be late for your ceremony, so I ask that this not happen to other couples who I have committed myself to that day for their ceremony as well. This is where it is very important that you do your best, as a couple, to make sure that this does not happen. An idea to get your guest to arrive on time is for you to tell your guests that your ceremony is at 3:00 p.m., when it is really going to start at 3:30 p.m. This will save you any additional costs from my performing the ceremony late.
The Fees for officiating weddings is set by Massachusetts Law.
