Hi there
My name is Jacob, and I am an ordained minister in the state of Colorado. I have performed 11 weddings since I was ordained in 2012 and I'm very excited to help out with more.
I work almost entirely from word of mouth. I don't want to advertise, I want you and your friends to remember and be excited to share when they see the work I have put into a wedding. The entire reason I'm creating this page is so friends can tag me if they see a friend in need.
Typically in the event that I'm asked to perform an ordination, we will set up a meeting over coffee or something where I'll meet and get to know you as a couple. I like to build a story and take notes that I will then use to start a script for the wedding.
Typically it goes along the lines of
Welcoming the guests, how i met you and how you met each other, and then we build the story of your relationship. I'll usually add in a little more advice from me, then if there's a special type of ceremony. After all that we will do the vows, ring exchange, power vested, yall smooch all that jazz.
I'll then send you the google doc of what I’ve got and you can make edits or changes to perfect it.
My goal in this industry is to be the easiest part of your wedding process. There's a million things to do before your big day, I want it to be the least difficult part of planning.
I do request that I can come to the rehearsal so I have a better idea of what all needs to be said, when and where to stand.
I specialize in making the process fun. I want you to feel like you're telling a friend about your story together. I like to keep things fun and lighthearted. I'm not your traditional “minister”
I'm agnostic, I believe there's something bigger than us, but I'm way too small to try to tell anyone what it is or how to live their lives.
Love is love and you shouldn't have to fight to be united. I have done weddings in all types of venues and met some very lovely people in the process. It truly has added so much to my life to say I was a part of your special day. I typically don't charge nearly the rates I've seen elsewhere, again, it's not money, it's love we’re celebrating. That being said, I'm a very large burly man, I have piercings (I'm willing to remove for a ceremony) and tattoos (none of which are visible in a long sleeve shirt). The beard is a deal breaker, as the last time I shaved I found out my chins had duplicated and I don't need to ever see that again.
I truly love helping others with their weddings, seeing the joy that radiates from the wedding party and their friends and family brings a joy I can't begin to describe.
If you'd like to book a meeting with me to discuss really anything at all, feel free to reach out through direct message. I'm always happy to teach but I'm even more happy to learn.
