You can decide to have a marriage ceremony designed for and about the two of you, an exceptional, joyful, unique customized and personalized wedding that reflects who you are as individuals and as a couple.
Or ...
You can decide to have an average marriage ceremony, with a script that uses the same traditional and impersonal words and style that are used in virtually every other wedding ceremony, whether held in a church, chapel, or civic setting.
If you want an officiant who takes the extra time to listen to you and your ideas, to work collaboratively to evolve a vision of a truly unique ceremony ... if you value creativity, humor, and originality, blended with your own selected personal and family traditions ... then you'll want to be married by Rick Kaplowitz.
Your wedding can be one in which each member of the audience is actively engaged in the real emotions of your ceremony.
Rick offers prospective clients a free one hour face-to-face consultation, so that you can explore how to turn this vision into a reality for your personalized wedding.
This consultation is held in the privacy of Rick's own home office (or by telephone conference call if one or both of you are remote) prior to your making any deposit or booking.
During this meeting, you can evaluate first hand whether the right chemistry, look, style, energy, and presence are in place to take your wedding ceremony to that exceptional level, far beyond anything you've ever experienced or imagined.
