Wedding Officiant for Your Ceremony or Elopement
Over 25 years serving Lafayette Louisiana and the surrounding area
Rev F. Daniel Latour
A preferred officiant for many venues, Rev. Dan's ceremonies average 16-22 minutes varying on the number in the wedding party and chosen additions. A Planning Form will be sent to design your civil or spiritual ceremony. Closer to the wedding he will send reminders, helpful hints and a basic timeline to help coordinate. When he arrives, he will help with the line up and work with vendors so you can relax and enjoy a smooth, beautiful wedding ~ even if unable to rehearse.
The quality of the ceremony sets the tone for the day. An experienced, professional officiant usually offers a better ceremony than a Justice of the Peace and can provide more options. Rev. Dan will also help coordinate when he arrives to ensure all goes well.
CEREMONY AT YOUR CHOSEN VENUE – $200.00
Ceremony and rehearsal - $350.00
The Ceremony fee includes preparation, travel time, officiating the ceremony with chosen options and filing the legal documents with the
Court. It does not include a rehearsal. However, many venues include a rehearsal in their package. Plus, you will have a
ceremony outline to help in working with vendors. If you need a rehearsal and the venue or a coordinator cannot direct it, Rev. Dan can be hired to do so. The balance would be due two weeks
before. He does not attend dinners.
You can also call our new number (337)255-3775 to check availability.
