Note: $50 deposit is due at the time of booking, no exceptions. This reserves the wedding date, and ensures that, no matter what else happens in my life between now and then, I'll have at least enough money for a decent haircut and gas to get to the wedding. Money may be paid by personal check, money order, PayPal, or by credit card. You may pay the down payment on this page. The rest of the money is due by the wedding date.

Please designate a person to be the contact for financial matters. Obviously, the bride and groom will have more important things on their minds at the wedding.
