Whether you choose a celebrant, minister, judge, or other officiant, they’ll set the tone for the most meaningful moment of your day. Personality, speaking style, and professionalism matter.
Questions to ask:
- How long have you been officiating weddings?
- How many ceremonies do you perform in a day?
- Have you worked at our venue before?
- Are you legally authorised to officiate at this location?
- Can we write our own vows or ceremony?
- Do you provide sample readings or vow templates?
- Can you include special elements like a unity candle or sand ceremony?
- Do you attend rehearsals and is there an extra cost?
- Do you have a backup officiant in case of emergencies?

Asking the right questions early on can save you stress, protect your budget, and help you lock in the perfect team for your wedding day. Take notes at every site visit, and trust your instincts. If it feels right and ticks the boxes, you’re on the right track.
And remember, with Wedlii, you’ll find a wide range of trusted vendors already part of our platform. We only include vendors we believe in, and we never allow paid placements or promotions, so you can plan with confidence.
