Marriage and a Meal
If you’re wanting a very small, private ceremony for a fraction of the cost of eloping, Marriage and a Meal may be for you! It’s far more elegant than going to the courthouse to get married, and gives you a quaint, small wedding experience.
I can make your wedding day special with a Marriage and a Meal. First, I am an ordained by the Universal Life Church and licensed in Ohio to perform weddings. Second, I’ll prepare an elegant Italian dinner for your after ceremony for your significant other and up to two (2) witnesses. This will be served in our private dining room. Third, your wedding ceremony and champagne toast will be recorded and made available for you to share on YouTube.
I am happy to work out any other details to make your wedding day and celebration dinner something unforgettable!
