It’s the wedding ceremony you’ve always dreamed of - elegant, emotional, and exciting! The Classic Wedding gives you the opportunity to celebrate your special day with your loved ones in the exact way you’ve intended.
An in-person wedding rehearsal can be added-on for $100 (for weddings in the City of Toronto or the GTA).
Enjoy an elegant, intimate wedding ceremony with your friends and family.
The ceremony (up to 30 minutes) allows for extended readings or blessings, commitment ceremonies (such as a candle lighting), and anything else you may desire. All ceremonies include a statement of intent, a vow exchange, the in-person signing of the Marriage Licence, and an official declaration; your officiant will review these legal requirements with you upon booking.
About a week after you place your booking, your officiant will email you to schedule a brief virtual consultation so that you can get to know them better. Also included at no extra cost with your Classic Wedding package is a 30-min virtual wedding rehearsal prior to the wedding.
WHAT YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT THE PROCESS:
Please ensure that you obtain a valid Marriage Licence (from any municipality in Ontario) no earlier than 90 days prior to the proposed wedding date. If you do not present the original, valid Marriage Licence to your officiant at the ceremony, you CANNOT be legally married. For more information, see the Marriage Licence page.
You must provide two witnesses of sound mind who can sign your Marriage Certificate at your wedding ceremony (aka they must know what they’re signing). Consult with your officiant if you need help with procuring witnesses.
By law, ceremonies MUST be done in-person and be attended by the married couple, the officiant, and two witnesses of sound mind. We cannot officiate a legal marriage by online means (not even during a pandemic).
There’s nothing you need to do after your ceremony—just enjoy being newlyweds! Your officiant will submit all required paperwork within 48 hours to the Ontario government to register your marriage. The government typically takes 10-16 weeks to process a registration. You may order at your own cost a Marriage Certificate, but it is entirely optional; you don’t need to get one to “complete” your legal marriage—signing the Marriage Licence itself is what makes your marriage “complete” under the law. Just like the Marriage Licence, the officiant cannot legally order a Marriage Certificate for you.
FINEPRINT:
Pricing is dependent on location. The City of Toronto includes Toronto proper, Scarborough, North York, and Etobicoke. The GTA includes the Regions of Durham, Halton, Peel, and York. Outside of the GTA is anywhere in the province, subject to availability of officiants.
To secure your preferred date and time, you must purchase a wedding package through our website (or contact us directly). Payment is non-refundable, but if anything happens and you have to reschedule your ceremony, you may do so once for free of charge if you notify your officiant at least one month prior to your original wedding date and you both agree on a new date.
