FAQs

When, Where, and Who?

The purpose of ‘when’ is to determine if I’m available on the date and time of their wedding and to see how far in advance the wedding is. The purpose of ‘where’ is to get a general idea about the formality of the wedding, determine how much travel is involved for me to get to the venue, and to know if I’ve worked at that venue before. The answers help me decide if this is a wedding I want to, and am able, to pursue. And the ‘who’ question is because generally one member of the couple contacts me but doesn’t tell me who the other member is! Before I meet with the couple, it’s helpful to know how to greet them.

What role do your families play in your lives?

I try to get a sense of how connected the couple is to their families, or how estranged, It also gives me a sense of how many family members are involved in the ceremony. Sometimes the couple was introduced by family members, which is a fun story to share. And I always like to acknowledge the parents in the ceremony by name, so this helps me properly express the couples’ appreciation for them.

How do you want to remember your ceremony? What do you want your friends and family to remember?

My objective is to develop the ideal ceremony for a specific couple, so I ask a lot of different questions to figure out what that will look like. Perfect is different for each couple, and directly asking them to describe their perfect ceremony isn’t always effective, so this is a good way to work backwards into the ceremony. What have you seen at other weddings that you liked or not liked? Imitation is the highest form of flattery! I watch carefully to see what couples casually toss out and what lights up their eyes. Was it elegant? Fun? Participative? Traditional? I learn a lot from these answers, and the better they can identify elements that they love, the better I can craft the details to meet their goals.

How did you meet? When did you fall in love?

An important wedding officiant question for couples is probably one you’ve answered many times before—how you met! Often, the way the couple met and later fell in love, and how they tell those stories, gives me both a way to begin telling their story and leads to the theme of their wedding ceremony. Who planned the first date? Who fell in love first? Is the location of the first date important? Is this a relationship built on surprise and adventure or one more focused on being at home with each other?

How did you get engaged?

Each half of the couple often has a slightly different recollection of the engagement story. One may insist it was Wednesday, while the other might say it was Tuesday. I like to hear the differences. I also like to know if the proposer did something grand or simple. Was the proposee surprised? Was the proposal expected? Who chose the ring? All these elements are important in defining who the couple is, both as individuals and together. Retelling the engagement story can also add a touch of humor to the ceremony, or it might be so touching that everyone starts crying. Both are good!

Amazing and so helpful

Daniel was so nice and he knew so much Information that we did not know. He helped us when we were nervous and he also met up with us before the weddi...ng to help us with anything if we needed help or had questions. Our daughter was so comfortable around him too and that made us super happy.

Our wedding was so much fun with Mr Halkyard as officiant

This was our 2nd time around and being from such diverse backgrounds we were concerned about the logistics of both our families at the ceremony. Mr Ha...lkyard asked a many different questions about our families, our previous marriages and what we wanted in the future. He put together such a collection of anecdotes and stories that everyone had a terrific time!

Our Unity Wedding

We were so excited when our officiant, Daniel Halkyard, explained to us how he would weave the unity portion of our wedding into the overall ceremony....
He took the time to ask us a multitude of questions about how we met, the proposal, how family and friends reacted, music we liked, special occasions we shared a passion for. He took all this information and structured a ceremony we still talk about to this day. His passion for bringing everyone together was quite evident in his presentation style, a mix of humor and drama. Very professional and on time too!
