Ocean City Wedding Ministers … What Do They Provide, and What is a Typical Fee?

Posted By Ocean City Minister on January 6, 2010

Pastor Mary:
…. provides unlimited email correspondence with you as you are planning your wedding ceremony

….. always files all of your marriage license paperwork for you with the courthouse.

…… very much encourages you to participate in your ceremony - by writing your own very special and unique wedding vows for each other.

……. will provide the Beach Unity Ceremony to include in your celebration. This individual ceremony is the very first thing that you do together after uniting as husband and wife.

Each of you pours into the center vase, different layers of sand…..symbolizing your love and your …….. joining together as a new family… never to be separated …….. If you have children that you would like to include, Pastor Mary will provide a larger vessel and more outside vessels of sand, for all to pour into the center vessel, as a family joined together.….. you will always receive the copy of your wedding vows, tucked into your marriage license envelope - to read later, and cherish forever. We suggest reading them to each other on your first anniversary.

…. Pastor Mary provides traditional, nondenominational, and interfaith as well as civil ceremonies.

What ideas do you have that will help you make your celebration truly your own?

We have had friends play guitars and sing during the ceremony. Family members have stepped forward to read a verse from the Bible or a poem to share. We love to help the Bride or Groom have a special surprise for one another.

We often hold the Rose Ceremony, which has a very special meaning to Pastor Mary.

What can we help you dream of and design to make your wedding celebration your own?

Pastor Mary’s gratuity for your ceremony is $250.

We do understand that this is less than many other Ministers that serve the wedding couples in Ocean City.  Pastor Mary and her associated Ministers have been providing wedding ceremonies and celebrations of love in Ocean City for many years.  Most especially now, during a time when so many people are having financial difficulties, Pastor Mary feels that there is absolutely no need to increase the fee to the Ocean City Wedding Ministers that work with her to provide weddings on the beach in Ocean City.


To have Pastor Mary’s wedding assistant present to organize your rehearsal, is $100.

We look forward to meeting you - and Welcoming your celebration of love to Ocean City!

Pastor Mary will be delighted to serve as the Wedding Minister for your celebration of marriage.

to schedule a date for Pastor Mary to officiate your ceremony, just send an email with your details to see if she is available. If you will need her for a rehearsal as well, please include that information.  To leave a message for Pastor Mary, call: 1-260-BEACHES .

You will need to send in your information with the agreement and a 50% retainer. Retainers reserve the time and date specifically for you, and allows that time to be set aside only for your wedding. This prevents the Pastor from scheduling other ceremonies close to your time frame, and blocks them out from scheduling additional weddings for a three hour period.

For this reason, Retainers are traditionally non refundable.

We look forward to seeing YOU on the beach in Ocean City!
