When interviewing officiants, make certain of a few things before booking.

• Make sure your wedding officiant gives you many choices and control regarding your ceremony.
• Make sure that your wedding officiant is licensed according to your state to solemnize marriages.
• Ask if your wedding officiant requires pre-marital counseling.
• Make sure that your wedding officiant has no problems coming to another site besides a church.
• Ask your wedding officiant what his or her policies are in case of an emergency, either your part or theirs.
• Ask your wedding officiant about fees, travel expenses and/or donations.  Make sure there are no hidden costs.

The wedding officiant that you select should be someone that you feel very comfortable with and someone whom you feel confident will perform the kind of ceremony that YOU want. Someone who answers all of your questions and concerns and if flexible with your plans and ideas. Never feel pressured into making a final decision. If an officiant pressures you into booking your ceremony immediately, you may want to find another officiant to interview.
