Short: Our ceremonies are designed to be between 5 - 15 minutes long, depending on what inclusions you’d like. For example, if you include readings by your loved ones, personalized vows, and have a processional, you’ll likely wind up near the 15-minute mark. Just the rings and official business will put you between 3-5 – easy!

Sweet: I want to get to know you! During the booking process, I’ll ask you to fill out a simple questionnaire about your love story. Once I have a draft ready, we can chat through any edits you both have.

Secular: I have no religious affiliation as your JP, and I will not utilize a spiritual tone or wording in your Dearly ceremony by default. You’re of course welcome to bring pieces of your faith to the ceremony script if you wish. This process is designed to be collaborative (see above – sweet!)

I think wedding pricing should always be transparent, and booking processes should be as straightforward as possible. Dearly’s bespoke ceremony services generally range from $500 - $1200. Fill out the form below to receive a quote.

Pricing is inclusive of the MA regulated fees of $100 within ($150 outside of) JP’s town of residence. Additional costs reflect a number of factors, including customization, meetings, time on-site or any rehearsals if desired, and/or revisions to your ceremony script.

Folks often find their officiant after booking all their larger wedding details, but if you’ve landed on this page early in your planning process, let us know! We have great working relationships with a wide array of vendors, from planners to florists and everyone in between.

Dearly Studio is a small business focused on growth. We prioritize on-site Dearly weddings during busier seasons and as such only book off-site ceremony services six or less months in advance.
