Congratulations on your upcoming marriage! Choosing the right officiant to guide you through your vows is a significant part of your wedding journey. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the available packages to help you select the perfect fit for your special day:

Package #1: Legal License Signing ONLY (Meet with Officiant) – $150

This package is designed for couples who need to legally formalize their marriage quickly and simply. It includes a meeting with the officiant for the sole purpose of signing your marriage license. South Carolina law requires a brief exchange of vows during the license signing process, and this package covers those “Quick Vows” as well. The signing will take place at a mutually agreed-upon location, offering flexibility for convenience. This option is ideal for couples who may be having a separate ceremony later, are eloping privately without a traditional ceremony, or simply wish to take care of the legal requirements efficiently.

Key Highlights:

• Budget-Friendly: This is the most economical option, perfect for those prioritizing a simple legal process.
• Efficient: This package focuses solely on the necessary steps to make your marriage legal.
• Convenient Location: You can choose a location that works best for both you and the officiant.
• Includes Required Vows: The “Quick Vows” mandated by South Carolina law are part of this package.

For couples dreaming of a more intimate and personalized elopement, this package offers a beautiful blend of simplicity and ceremony. It covers a wedding performance in a location of your choosing, be it a picturesque park or another special inside or outside setting. If you haven’t already signed your marriage license, the officiant will take care of that as well. This package is designed for the couple only, though children are welcome to attend and witness your union.

Key Highlights:

• Intimate Setting: Ideal for a private and romantic elopement experience.
